  1. When do the pre classes END!!!!!

    studentnurse74 replied to txspadequeenRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, your reasons are much more valid then mine. I've been going on and off for 8 years. I got married, had a child, hubby had cancer. So I would take one class here, 2 there, a semester off, etc....

  2. Anyone starting clinicals this fall, and where?

    studentnurse74 replied to studentnurse74's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Where do you live? I didn't get in at Indy's Ivy Tech, but got in at Columbus. It's the first year they're offering the program. I heard Ivy Tech Kokomo was easier to get

  3. Forget Nursing School, You Can Buy Your Phony Diploma and Transcripts Online

    studentnurse74 replied to Sheri257's topic in General Students

    What's scary is that they must sell PLENTY of them to maintain a website for ordering. Yikes----worse than Sally

  4. Becoming personally or intimately involved with patients or not?

    studentnurse74 replied to Hol's topic in General Students

    Okay, nothing to do with the topic, but that is funny, and it reminds of when people always say their babies are starting to eat "people food". :rotfl: Drives me

  5. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    studentnurse74 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    In my CNA class, we gave baths in shorts and tank tops. It wasn't a big deal at all. We also fed each other, with the one being fed blindfolded. That was

  6. What nursing classes are the most difficult

    studentnurse74 replied to Kristy_joyz's topic in General Students

  8. how much Indiana nurses make

    studentnurse74 replied to nurseluv9's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Check out Clarian hospitals. I think the site is http://www.clarian.com (or org?). They are Methodist, IU, and Riley hospitals all downtown

  9. Anyone starting clinicals this fall, and where?

    studentnurse74 replied to studentnurse74's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Oh, sorry, I'm currently at Ivy Tech Indianapolis, but will be transferring to Columbus Ivy Tech. It's a drive, but a much smaller school, and there was less competition. I'll be going for my

  10. Ivy Tech State College

    studentnurse74 replied to tonicareer's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I agree, don't take it personally. I just now found this Indiana forum! I took the CNA class through Ivy Tech back in 1996. I know they have new instructors now, but I was pretty impressed with the...

  11. I HATE CHEMISTRY! !@#$%^&*

    studentnurse74 replied to Deb123j's topic in General Students

    I always struggled with chemistry/physical science in high school, and thankfully I don't need to take it in college. Don't be discouraged that you might not get an A, just be THANKFUL you're going...

  12. How are you studying?

    studentnurse74 replied to rachelaleanRN2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Um, I think she's talking about biting her nails from being nervous. Get it?

  13. The Cons of Nursing

    studentnurse74 replied to iy0ga's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't blame you for moving! You should not have to endure that during your shift. I've worked several medical jobs, and none have been like that. Mostly nice patients, with a few bad apples. In...

  14. Do you skip a lot of classes if attendance isn't taken? Be honest!

    studentnurse74 replied to Star Trek Nerd's topic in General Students

    No, I don't skip classes normally. If I miss one class, I feel I'm playing "catch up" the entire semester! The only exception is if it's the last few days of class, and we're only going to be doing...

  15. How are you studying?

    studentnurse74 replied to rachelaleanRN2B's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am starting my clinicals this fall. I've already purchased an nclex-rn review book. I heard that it helps to review it through school by each section you're studying. Do you think this is going...

  16. Just starting- any advice?

    studentnurse74 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I just got my acceptance letter today. I'll be starting clinicals for the ASN program in August. Can any of you new grads give me advice you wish you'd had, or tell me how manageable nursing school...

  17. Why are you REALLY going into nursing? Honest answers please.

    studentnurse74 replied to Sheri257's topic in General Students

    Steady income, JOB SECURITY, job diversity, I love medicine, that "calling", great healthcare benefits, to name a few. I know the pay isn't in the 6 figures, but I'm only making $100 a month right...

  18. Professional in scrubs?

    studentnurse74 replied to Kora0880's topic in General Students

    I don't like white b/c it looks dingey (sp?) after a while. Also b/c I'm a woman, and white pants with that time of the month do NOT give me confidence, especially when I have to bend over! LOL The...

  19. I have to be bathed by my classmate???

    studentnurse74 replied to Saved_by_Grace's topic in General Students

    I heard we would have to inject each other with saline. Is it no longer

  20. How do you wear your hair???

    studentnurse74 replied to HyperRNRachel's topic in General Students

    My hair is long, naturally curly, only thin. So I usually do the boring tiger clip or braid. I would have them thin it out. Use layers. You could get the style where it's a few inches shorter on...

  24. Balancing chemical equations?

    studentnurse74 replied to blue eyes's topic in General Students
