    IDK, I may be wrong, but when I took A&P II at a CC, which is 4 credit hours, I only paid like $200 something. Times that by 3 and it should be a little over $600. Its pretty cheap and I was able...

    Amount of debt upon graduation?

    Exactly. How come 3 summer classes at CC can cost about $600 but at private, religious schools, it is $8000-9000? State school is less, but still more that it should. They say this school's graduates...

    This what I get for going to an expensive school with a 3 YEAR BSN program! It's like $21,000/year and steadily increasing since I've been there. I wanted to go to a Community College for my pre-reqs,...

    What was your final like?

    I'm trying to study right now and finding it hard to concentrate. I know I do not want to repeat this class, so that should be motivation enough. i can't do clinical in this class again. I'm scared of...
  5. I'm not talking about other nursing students, but the general public. Heck, even patients! I have had a patient ask me was I in nursing school (obviously). She then asked how far along I was and how...

    Flu shot issue

    It's not really a conspiracy theory when its right in front of your face. This stuff is no joke and no laughing matter. The world isn't spiraling out of control for no reason. But maybe Bill Gates...

    Flu shot issue

    I posted this in another thread, but since this one seems more lively, I'll post it here: Bill Gates says the world's population should be reduced and that it can be done through vaccines, health...

    Flu shot controversy

    I have to bump this up. Just a quick input about vaccines: Not too long ago, Bill Gates said that the world population could be controlled with the use of vaccines, health care, and reproductive...

    Why do some people assume NS is easy?

    Around what semester is that usually? Med-Surg II? I was at clinical today and there were 4 of us from my school, me included, and 2 from another local school. They are supposed to be one of the best...

    Anyone else hate group projects?

    I feel you on that one. We didn't have to write a 20 page paper, but last fall there was this group project that caused all sorts of loads of drama and I was caught in the middle of the bickering of 2...

    Should I tell my nursing school about my disorder?

    I remember I told my instructor I have hypothyroidism and have to take medication for it. I don't know if it made any difference, but it just came up. Explained why I'm so tired all the time, as
  14. The FDA can be shady...ever wonder why it is called the Food AND Drug Administration? We wouldn't need the high number of drugs that we do if our food supply was up to par for our health. Uh-huh, it's...

    What is YOUR opinion on nursing school exams?

    I'm beginning to wonder can some nurses be corrupt like some cops. Just a musing. Because, seriously, some get on a power trip with a one way ticket that they will never come back

    What is YOUR opinion on nursing school exams?

    Fundamentals sucked for me too! Don't feel too bad. Then again I didn't read the book like I should have. I do read now that I'm in Med-Surg now and just made a 86 on my first test. However, the test...
