   frogpirate replied to blueyesue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Well we had our second exam today, and I didn't do quite as well as on the 1st. (88% on this one, 94% on the first). I'm pretty upset, because I actually spent more time studying this time. I don't...

2. Why is there no medical terminology class for the RN program? Among others.

7. What specialty do you want and not want to work in?

   frogpirate replied to guiltysins's topic in General Students

   I'm still pre-Nursing, so things could change between now and graduation. I keep joking that I'm going to specialize in geriatrics, 'cause I'm almost there myself (I'm > Like: Any ICU/Critical...

8. Older Nursing students

   frogpirate replied to MarieD's topic in General Students

   Wow, I feel less isolated already. Actually, there are a number of non-traditional or returning students in our pre-Nursing program as well. I am on my 3rd quarter, and have 2 more to go for...
