  1. My story.

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    As many of you, throughout the process of applying nursing school, completing it, finding a job, and getting my license I was constantly worried about how my background would affect my goals. I have a...

  2. My story.

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Luckily, during the application process to school, they only asked for felonies, which I do not have. Now, a background check was required for clinicals. So, the misdemeanor came up. I basically had...

  3. Am I being snotty?

    HumptyDumpty replied to JezzysRN09's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I personally think its rediculous to have BSN behind your name. No one really cares if you have that or not. In the end, your still an RN. I find it amusing the letters some of these nurses have...

  4. How similar is Saunders to NCLEX?

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi all, I was curious to hear from people that have taken the NCLEX on how similar the Saunders questions were to the NCLEX?? I have heard that Saunders is one of the best review books/questions for...

  5. How much will the nursing program affect my sports watching?

    HumptyDumpty replied to ljonm's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Agreed, **** the

  6. Recommend me a energy bar

    HumptyDumpty replied to AragornSkywalker's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Why eat proccessed crap like energy bars when you can have a piece of fruit for half the cost and twice the nutrients and health

  7. How much will the nursing program affect my sports watching?

    HumptyDumpty replied to ljonm's topic in Male Nursing Students

    It should not affect your sports watching what so ever... Don't fall into the BS drama and worry your fellow female classmates tell you about having no life in nursing school because of studying,...

  8. Can you get a MSN in less than 2 years online?

    HumptyDumpty replied to *ABCRN*'s topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am looking for the same type of program in regards to a time frame. The only program I know of is Vanderbilt if you are willing to shell out twice the money of another program. Sorry, but saving a...

  9. Writing an essay for the BON

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    So, I basically have a misdemeanor for theft that happened 7 years ago when I just turned 18 and a dumb PI charge a couple years later. Even though I do have a couple minor misdemeneaors on my record,...

  10. Am I hireable?

    HumptyDumpty replied to KayteRN's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    If it asked for felonies, and you have none, mark no. If it asked for a pending misdemeanor charge, and you have none, mark no. Do not divulge any info that is not asked, simple as that! You are not...

  11. Nursing as a second degree, Kinesiology 1st

    HumptyDumpty replied to N_school's topic in General Students

    It wont make a difference salary wise. I have a true BS, in Biology and have not been offered any more of a salary then some of my fellow classmates who have just a BSN. But it will look good when...

  12. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    HumptyDumpty replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I agree with both of you... I am even in an accelerated program and don't find it that terribly difficult. I have plenty of free time. Sure it requires some time management and getting your work done,...

  13. How do you handle cheaters?

    HumptyDumpty replied to AllSmiles225's topic in General Students

    Don't worry about it. It is none of your business how these people get by. When it comes down to it, you will hopefully know more than they do because you put the work into it. Pass the NCLEX and...

  14. ANP University of Cincinnati

    HumptyDumpty replied to nikilyn1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am curious about this as well. Thinking about applying to their program for the

  15. Anyone NOT have enough exp before NP school?

    HumptyDumpty replied to CrazyPremed's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I am not a NP, but I will tell you that I was not accepted to a NP program because of not having experience (i graduate this fall). It kind of sucked not getting in right after my BSN, but hey,...

  16. last semester... thank god

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in Male Nursing Students

    Finally past the halfway point in my last semester... I am mostly thankful that I am finally getting away from this BS. I am not sure if I could have survived another semester with my fellow...

  19. Psychiatric NP advice

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hello all, I am getting ready to graduate with my BSN in December and definitely want to pursue a masters and become a psych NP within the next year. So I am looking at jobs right now and there just...

  20. Psychiatric NP advice

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thank you for the heart felt reply. I truly believe it is what I want to focus on and pursue. Mental illness fascinates me and if you can truly help just 1 out of 5 people, then you not only made...

  21. Do We All Need To Have a BSN Now?

    HumptyDumpty replied to NurseStudentYay's topic in First Year After Licensure

    No difference in job performance between an ADN and a BSN when it comes to the RN position. ADNs are taught how to do the job of a RN... BSNs have well, wasted their money on taking BS classes that...

  22. How to Solve This Drug reconstitution problem?

    HumptyDumpty replied to BEBE1004's topic in General Students

    Hmmm, is there enough info in this question? Disregard the 8 hours, its insignificant. The 4 grams is going to be put into 50 MLs, so therefore 50MLs over 20 minutes is 2.5 ML per

  23. Male nurses: Are we welcome?

    HumptyDumpty replied to Leonardo Del Toro's topic in Male Nursing Students

    ^^^ Agree 100%. Who gives 2 sh*ts if these hags don't welcome you. Ignore them and do your job. It never says in the job description that you must be "liked" and to "socialize" with all your...

  24. last semester... thank god

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    haha I agree with you two totally... I passed my exit hesi, but now I must endure another month of BS

  25. A bit discouraged

    HumptyDumpty replied to CaptCrunch's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Dude, you sound exactly like me. I got my first bachelors in biology/chemistry, couldn't find a job and decided "what the hell" lets go into nursing. I am wrapping up my accelerated BSN program and...
