  1. Heartbroken over externship

    1) Please remove the chip from your shoulder. On graduation day, the student with the 4.0 and the students who just barely passed will all get the diploma. 2) I get a feeling that you have a sense of...
  2. One thing that you have to remember, as one of my teachers once said, is "You signed up for this!" When our clinical sites were posted, she was inundated with students that complained that the sites...
  3. No phones at clinical

    How would you like it if you were a patient, extremely ill, only to look up and have a nurse texting 100 mph or answering his/her cell phone? RUDE! Barring these devices on the floors are done for a...
  4. SO how was your first day of nursing school?

    Disrespectful students. Really dumb questions asked by students (Why can't we wear Crocs to clinicals?) Aggravating texting/cell phone use during class. Meaningless chatter among the post high school...
  5. Is this a bad TEAS V score???

    Blah blah blah I scored a 99 and have a 3.8, I scored an 89 and have a 3.99. Same old same old bragging (and
  6. I'm the only one that got the A. Everyone else in the class flunked. I'm the smartest in the class. Everyone else is dumb. Out of all the posts that are in this thread, the above 4 statements...
  7. Microbiology fall 2010

    You guys brag too
  8. I love how these balnket statements of how nurses "attend" to their patients...More than once I've seen nursing students and nurses alike roll their eyes when they're assigned a patient, and do their...
  9. OK, so I have a goldfish that's my entire life. My clinical is supposed to get out at 4 so I made plans in advance to be home by 4:30 to feed him. Since those with children expect certain...
  10. You guys really need to suck it up and deal with this. I have no children, so do you think you're entitled to have the school accomodate you just because you have kids? I think not. And as far as...
  11. HELP! Bombed the HESI Entrance Test

    Another suggestion to the original poster--- Don't believe everyone when they say they scored a 99%, 95%, or whatever high score they give you. They're just trying to one-up you by bolstering their...
  12. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Nurses will speak in their native tongue whan they want to badmouth a patient/co-worker/student. In the real world, this shouldn't happen, right? Everyone and their brother on this board stress...
  13. to those of you who had the summer off...

    Here we go again with the "I have a 4.0, have four full time jobs and a gaggle of kids and I still had a life." Well, good for you. The drama never ceases, even in the
  14. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    OK, so why are you going on the defense? If you withdrew from A&P, and the instructor "was bad", well, then you have a reason. It sounds like the school is providing you with resources in order to...
  15. Any new grad jobs?

    Updated news flash.....Does anyone do anything on the Internet besides Facebook of Farmville? Did anyone bother to think "Hmmm, I'll be graduating in a couple of years, I think I'll look in the want...
  16. Does everyone and their brother have a 3.9 GPA? Geez, enough of the ******* contests. That hight GPA of yours won't help you land a job in this
  17. Any new grad jobs?

    Where do you get the experience from? Shoulda thought about that when you were in nursing school. And no, no one's
  18. After my ADN, I'm going to pursue my BSN. OK, what you mean to say is "I haven't found a job. I can push off working another two years and hopefully the economy will turn around." (Hey...
  19. How to survive clinicals

    On my first day of clinicals, a student absolutely refused to help a patient with a bedpan...Hello...we all signed up for this....were taught about bedpans n' stuff in lecture so how could she NOT see...
  20. pre req hard

    JonB, Please remember that in these message boards, everyone has a 4.0, ALL their pre-requisites were easy, the posters come from a family of doctors and therefore know most of the info. they need to...
  21. Please register for the health technologies seminars! They're free! In those sessions, EVERY possible question that you have about the health tech. programs at MCC are answered. You must sign up in...
  22. Backstabbing/Gossip in Nursing School

    Do what I did once--bring a pocket sized tape recorder with you, and press the "Rec" button near the person when their drama begins. Guaranteed to shut them up. Just remember to say "Oh, can you...
  23. Will your clinical group please stop taking pictures of yourselves and posting them on the bulletin board that contains notices for our class. Yes, it's sooooo cute how you hold each other in the...
  24. Fall 2010 Classes!!

    I hope most of you have loaded up on drop slips....I've seen some of these schedules posted, and I'm not saying which ones in particualr--buy by week 3 you're going to be burned out. In other words,...
  25. Stop texting behind the nurse's station. You're always calling students out on unprofessioanl behavior. I guess texting about what restaurant you'll be eating at tonight with your family qualifies as...
