    Do you guys see a lot of people saying they are nursing students....

    Anoetos replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    It's so funny that you should mention this: The other day in Fundamentals, our instructor told us that when CNAs and others introduce themselves as "Hi, I'm So-n-so, and I'll be your nurse" she always...

    Clients? Are they no longer patients?

    Anoetos replied to bassadict69's topic in General Students

    Sorry for going all "history teacher" earlier...this board doesn't have a delete function after a while so, realizing later that my comment wasn't particularly apropos or analogous to the sense in...

    Clients? Are they no longer patients?

    Anoetos replied to bassadict69's topic in General Students

    Elkpark is absolutely right of course. Just because we assume commercialization when we see the word "client" doesn't mean it's so. The ancient history of the word is interesting. Wealthy Roman...

    Anatomy and Physiology I and II - drop out rate

    Anoetos replied to Elizabeth 123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As a rule, instructors will not ever change the way they grade. Which makes sense, it can be very problematic if a student felt they were graded unfairly and failed a class while others, later, were...

    Important Question about Nursing!

    Anoetos replied to NewgradR.N2022's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The answer to your question is to do whatever works best for you. For the sake of time, and if you already have most of your pre-reqs/co-reqs done, it probably makes sense to try to get into a...

    Important Question about Nursing!

    Anoetos replied to NewgradR.N2022's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Note: by 2015, NP will be a DNP and no longer just an MSN. Then again, if you're young and you're thinking about the PA route, why not just go a few years longer and get your

    Is it me, or is there a dichotomy for male nurses??

    Anoetos replied to Mike32110's topic in Male Nursing Students

    why have two posters in this thread made a necessary connection between "feminine" and "empathy and caring"? that seems to be even more prejudicial than the OP's actually pretty innocent question...

    Microbiology, Summer 2010

    Anoetos posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am starting this thread for all of us who are taking Micro over the summer. We just started last week, I am pretty excited. For me, the biochemistry can get a bit fuzzy but the rest of it is...

    Does being a guy have any affect on being accepted into your schools nursing program?

    Anoetos replied to cjcsoon2bnp's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Revised numbers are 11/45 or almost 25%. I know they didn't plan for it to be that high but there it is. Now, in 2 years we'll see where we end

    Does being a guy have any affect on being accepted into your schools nursing program?

    Anoetos replied to cjcsoon2bnp's topic in Male Nursing Students

    My BSN-PL class begins this week. I have not done a definitive count but from what I have seen in our few meetings running up to the semester, it looks as though out of about 60 acceptances, 11 or so...

    Chem & Micro

    Anoetos replied to jmwalk09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    my micro class had very little or no chemistry to it, we pretty much skipped the chapter on microbial biochemistry because it was assumed that our core pre-nursing curriculum provides a good basic...

    Microbiology fall 2010

    Anoetos replied to soraji's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wish you all the very best in Microbiology. I took it over the summer and while I wouldn't say it was really, really hard, the study time it demands is significant. Like A&P it has a good amount...

    Science classes without taking any math in over 10 years, help?

    Anoetos replied to jwannab's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are taking Algebra at some point though, aren't you? I think most programs require it, and I think most BSN programs also require a statistics class as well. It wouldn't hurt to get it out of the...

    CPR Class

    Anoetos replied to justchill's topic in General Students

    If its like the course I took (and it should be, it's pretty standard), you'll spent a few hours with mannikins performing various CPR. AED etc. you'll be evaluated by the instructor after plenty of...

    Best area of Specialty for Male Nurse?

    Anoetos replied to jtanga's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I think there have been areas that I have heard men have tended to gravitate toward (ER, ICU, Psych), but I don't think there are any areas that are "best" for men. On the other hand, a male OB nurse...

    Womens interest in male nurses
