  1. Male getting into the field, and I have questions

    HumptyDumpty replied to CT Student's topic in Male Nursing Students

    If your intentions are to become a PA\NP, skip the nursing crap and go straight to PA school man, it will save you money, time, and a headache. If a mortgage and bills are a concern of yours, you...

  2. Working with mostly women. Heaven or Hell?

    HumptyDumpty replied to lsvalliant's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Heaven and hell... Flirting with the hot ones and shooting the sh*t with them is fun. On the other hand, the drama and dumb attitude of "I am so important" that many of these female nurses possess is...

  3. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I could not agree more. I receive these 150 page study guides and look through them and find myself saying "75% of this crap is completely irrelevant to the material on the test." Which is why a lot...

  4. new student, not what it seems.

    HumptyDumpty replied to ddr436's topic in General Students

    I felt the same way the first semester of my accelerated BSN. I heard people talking about studying 8 hours a day while I was out fishing, drinking, and having a good time. Don't worry about it, you...

  5. How time consuming is it?

    HumptyDumpty replied to 2bJoshRN9788's topic in General Students

    God, I could not agree with you more... After 5-6 hours of studying, I don't know what else to study. 40-60hrs??? Jeez, what the heck are you studying? Careplans taking people 4-10 hours?! Seriously?...

  6. Nursing and Pre Med

    HumptyDumpty replied to sc4s2cg's topic in General Students

    There are many options you could follow through with. Pre-med requirements are usually just Biology1-2, Chemistry 1-2, Organic chemistry 1-2, and physics 1-2. I would highly recommend taking...

  7. Some of these students, jeez...

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I don't know, but seeing as how much of a tool he is, I would assume YES. He would never break the rules regardless how dumb they are (i.e. the cross walk reference). The subject is not about leaving...

  8. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Haha, this is so true. I know speaking for myself, and basically all my friends, we are constantly cracking jokes, BSing with each other, and yes, at times can be extremely raunchy. You ladies like...

  9. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I could care less if I fit in, I don't like most of these people anyways. I will do my job with the utmost excellence and be a good team player, but as far as friendship, I don't want it from most...

  10. Whats so hard about the HESI?

    HumptyDumpty posted a topic in General Students

    Well, I just took my mid curricular HESI, which covered patho/pharm/foundations/psych/OB/Peds today. I scored a 950 and did a whole 40 practice questions... I basically did not study. So many people...

  11. is that a bad idea to take out loan before i get accepted for nursing program?

    HumptyDumpty replied to ilovemychihuahua's topic in General Students

    If you feel confident enough that you will finish the program and reach your end result i.e. becoming a nurse, then go for it. If it will help relieve the stresses of paying your bills and what not,...

  12. Might sound stupid...but need opinions!

    HumptyDumpty replied to criticalRN10's topic in General Students

    Go for it. You will have more time then you think. Walking it is a good form of exercise (don't become obese like MANY nurses) plus its companionship is a nice plus as well. The dog can handle being...

  13. The "weeding" out

    HumptyDumpty replied to mom35's topic in General Students

    Just don't care. Let them put this "stress" on you, and then tell yourself, whatever... Study, and get the job done. Do not let stupid BS propaganda get to you. THINK FOR

  14. Any Good Books to Read Before Nursing School?

    HumptyDumpty replied to fadedstars34's topic in General Students

    I agree with this poster. There really is no need to get ahead of the game or read anything associated with nursing before you start your program. You will learn everything you need to know in the...

  15. need help , would you please clarify to me

    HumptyDumpty replied to marru's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I highly doubt that your MD degree from another country would replace a BSN in the admission process for CRNA school. I am going to assume that you are going to need to earn that BSN, try to achieve a...

  16. What factors are important when nursing someone with depression

    HumptyDumpty replied to davidthenurse's topic in General Students

    Instead of coming on a forum and asking people to do your work for you because you can't figure out what some interventions are for a patient with depression (which shouldn't be hard at all to figure...

  17. There is not one person in my class

    HumptyDumpty replied to tbell2's topic in General Students

    Hah, sounds like this professor is miserable and tries to put it off on you students. From my experience in nursing school, I find these professors make this content a lot harder than it is by...

  18. Those nursing students that just don't seem to "get it"

    HumptyDumpty replied to SolaireSolstice's topic in General Students

    Attempt to help them, but in reality, if they can't seem to understand "simple" things, there is no hope... I mean seriously, how hard is it to understand some of this

  19. End of 1st semester: what was the hardest thing?

    HumptyDumpty replied to R.NICU's topic in General Students

    Waking up hungover and having to drag my butt into clinical at 6am to give people "showers." Blah... what a waste of my

  20. Should I keep my Micro book???

    HumptyDumpty replied to irish_fiddler747's topic in General Students

    Sell that thing back, you can google whatever you need to find out. Heck, here is another tip, don't even bother buying most nursing books. For the most part, they are worthless. Ask nursing students...

  21. Gift for Clinical Instructor

    HumptyDumpty replied to ajgspn's topic in General Students

    HAHA! How about a "Thank You" card? Seriously, its her job... There is no need to give her something

  22. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    HumptyDumpty replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    1. You studied 30 hours for this test and only scored an 80? Jeez... 2. Shut the heck up. You know why you only have a 3.0? Its because you do nothing but study and all you do is think about this...

  23. Whats so hard about the HESI?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in General Students

    Haha, I agree. I was so sick of hearing everyone freak out about some test. They say something that like if you score above a 900 on the hesi, you have like a 90% chance of passing the NCLEX... Kind...

  24. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Exactly, I could not have put it any better. What I meant is that some of these people treat nursing as if it is the meaning of their existence. But really, when you talk to most nurses 5 years out of...

  25. Any males out there tired of the drama?

    HumptyDumpty replied to HumptyDumpty's topic in Male Nursing Students

    First of all, you are correct. I do not like nursing AT ALL... This is a means to an end, nothing more, either it be NP or CRNA school. It just angers me that these people feel it necessary to put...
