  5. What do you wish you were told on the first day?

    Rednights replied to AOx1's topic in General Students

    1. Buy the Saunders book. Study it off it. It's much more practical if you're in a crunch. 2. Eat breakfast so you don't pass out in OR because your teacher said so. There's nothing like the smell of...

    Rednights replied to KimGau's topic in General Students

    Holy, you can prove me wrong, but under normal circumstances that class load is borderline suicidal. Hey, if you can get As without studying or need minimal studying time, go for it if you must. It's...

    Rednights replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  14. I hate the NCLEX-RN Exam

    Rednights replied to NCLEX-RN Sucks's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You use Kaplan for questions, Saunders for content review. DO NOT even look at the Kaplan book they give you for their review course. It's absolutely worthless. Why? When the Q-bank question has a...

  15. Online classes hard?

    Rednights replied to Otaybw19's topic in General Students
