  1. How to make studying unboring?

    nohika posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just started my pre-reqs summer quarter, and due to intense load I was able to force myself to study. Here I am, taking a slightly easier load...and suddenly studying's become incredibly boring. It...

  2. Please help me and please please don't be rude

    nohika replied to Amy1989's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck! One of my closest friends was homeschooled and just completed remedial math - I'm so proud of her! Best of luck to you as well on your journey to be a nurse!

  3. Things you'd like to say to your fellow classmates

    nohika replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is aweessooomeeee. To the girl in both my lecture and lab class, we do NOT want to listen to you badmouth the teacher TO HER FACE about how "bad" her study guides are and accuse her of purposely...

  4. Keeping CNA license current in WA

    nohika posted a topic in Washington Nursing

    Allright, so I have some questions about CNA licensure. I just passed my boards (this morning, in fact) and can't really see the time in my schedule to work much as a CNA, sadly. How do I keep my...

  5. Which School do you recomend?

    nohika replied to AshleyAlice2010's topic in Washington Nursing

    From my understanding, very, very rarely (if ever) do community colleges have housing. I've heard Shoreline is very good,

  6. working as RN part-time during med school?

    nohika replied to meddecisions's topic in General Nursing

    I believe so, from what I've heard/read. The economy is so bad that they no longer have the money to hire and train new graduates, so the hospitals no longer hire them. And trust me, a new grad is a...

  7. BSN not worth it?

    nohika posted a topic in General Nursing

    Allright, so I have a few questions...I was reading about how "BSNs are often the least clinically prepared" and all that kind of jazz, so now I'm worried...is it even worth going for my bachelor's? I...

  8. I'm not tech savvy...help me minimize the pain of books/backpack weight! :)

    nohika replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    To add based on what the previous poster just said...check out the variety of nursing software out there and find out the general consensus of what phones that they will work with. That way you can...

  9. I'm not tech savvy...help me minimize the pain of books/backpack weight! :)

    nohika replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know much about Metro PCS, and I am just a pre-nursing student, but I bought an iTouch so I could get all the "nursie" things when the time comes. Right now, it's used to hold flashcards for...

  10. BSN not worth it?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in General Nursing

    Just to clarify, I was asking if there was any clinical basis or if there was any sort of factual evidence for this - I'm not assuming it's correct. Since I can, and I see soooo many job postings...

  11. Applying to nursing school help!!!!

    nohika replied to kscalzo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on the college. I'm applying to several schools in my state (Washington), and a few have you apply to the school AND program because if you're admitted into the program, you get into...

  12. BSN not worth it?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in General Nursing

    I had just seen more of it around, and was curious if there was any fact to it. Thank you for clarifying.

  13. How to make studying unboring?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for all the tips! I've never tried Youtube before, will definitely have to. It helps that my professor makes powerpoints for us that have lots of pictures - I like those. They're easier to read...

  14. How did you decide which schools to apply to?

    nohika replied to mell260's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I kind of went through all the Nursing schools in-state, because it's what I can afford (all the BSN programs, anyways), and the community college I'm currently at. Made up a list of all the pre-reqs,...

  15. Someone please tell me how to survive A&P (and other questions)

    nohika posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay - this is going to be kind of long. I keep reading stories on here about how hard Anatomy and Physiology is, and how impossible it is...and it's kind of gotten me terrified. My school (a...

  16. Has anyone picked a specialty before nursing school and actually done it after?

    nohika posted a topic in General Nursing

    So I'm currently a pre-nursing student and since I'm working on my pre-reqs, I like to think about where I'd like to end up after nursing school. Not like it matters, but I'm looking at Peds CVICU,...

  17. Pre-Nursing Students: Enter here for a second to scream and let it out.

    nohika replied to smellyacres's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  18. Nursing Speciality

    nohika replied to v_leon89's topic in Emergency

    Are you asking about during school or afterwards? Afterwards you can (try) to get a position straight into an ED. During Nursing School it's pretty much similar everywhere - you don't "pick" where you...

  19. Portland or Vancouver

    nohika replied to flg8tr's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm guessing it's so they can look like they're hiring (and therefore add to the famous "nursing shortage") while not actually hiring? I'm not quite sure. Legacy's postponed their nursing internships...

  20. Pre-Nursing Students: Enter here for a second to scream and let it out.

    nohika replied to smellyacres's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. THIS IS FOR RETARDED FAMILY MEMBERS who keep asking why you're not in nursing school yet, say that you picked a hard schedule to avoid them ON PURPOSE, and complain...

  21. Has anyone picked a specialty before nursing school and actually done it after?

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in General Nursing

    Thank all of you guys so much for your responses! :redpinkhe It's really nice to know that it does happen. I get so many people telling me that I'm wrong and whatnot...that's why this forum is...

  22. Someone please tell me how to survive A&P (and other questions)

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The nice thing is is that several teachers have posted past syllabi online, so we know where they're going to start. So I can at least become familiar with the material beforehand. I have trouble with...

  23. Financial Aid Problems... please help

    nohika replied to morningland's topic in General Students

    No offense, but in reality, they were offering something. What could the dean do about your situation? Bully the financial aid office into giving you more money? Regardless...I'm not exactly sure what...

  24. "Understanding" the material

    nohika posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay, so I'm taking Human Biology this quarter - it's like baby A&P - we don't go nearly as in depth, but we do cover all the systems. It's a pre-requisite to A&P at my college. I've been...

  25. "Understanding" the material

    nohika replied to nohika's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've never looked anything up on Youtube before, so I'll definitely give it a shot. I think I should do well on my lab practical this Monday, and I've gotten A- on both my lecture quizzes, so I'm...
