    Stop beating yourself up and realize that you'll probably never make that mistake
  3. I do homework of some kind just about every day for a few hours. I don't do any homework on weekends because I work 12 hour shifts both Sat and Sun. In class I listen to the lecture, follow the...
  4. Is FL new grad friendly?

    I'm in the Tampa Bay area, haven't seen any listings for new grad RNs in a long
  5. I feel like I missed out... can anyone give me advice?

    I'm a fairly new LPN with no CNA experience. I understand how you feel about transferring and positioning patients. At work I often help the CNAs transfer and reposition residents. I do what I can to...

    Suggest you go get PCT license as ******* uses PCTs. Also get good grades then when you complete the pre-reqs for SPC you can apply for Morton Plant's earn as you learn program. Check out the Florida...

  10. Perhaps your teacher is right and you are over analyzing the questions. My classmate does this, she thinks too much about the questions and tries to justify each answer. You can't do that. Read the...

  12. I'm generally an A student. I study the same way you do, but probably not as much. But I don't stress about making As nor about excelling in school. Maybe that's your problem, you're putting too much...

  14. I wish I felt that optimistic about my career in nursing. I'll be thankful enough to keep my job in LTC when I get my RN. There's very few jobs for new RN grads in my large metro
  15. Scored 33/35 on my last exam after failing the first one.
  16. Goodbye social life.

    Being in nursing school is just giving you practice for when you're married, working and have kids. You'll have no social life then either.

  19. Move over, Florida...

    I've lived in the Tampa Bay area since 1994. Florida is certainly not what it was. The economy is in the toilet with no signs of a recovery coming any time soon. Everywhere we see empty houses and...

  23. Your dumbest financial mistakes

    I don't care about my credit report, I don't plan on buying anything major in the next 7 years. I already have a house and will never again get a car loan. I also rarely use credit cards, I have 2...
  24. Diabetes case study

    If you look through the threads here you'll find sample case studies on diabetes that other students have asked about. I saw one a few days
  25. Your dumbest financial mistakes

    Yup, bought a timeshare in 1998, dumbest mistake I ever made. I tried to sell it, impossible. I paid it off and am letting go into foreclosure for the maintenance fees. So what? I already own my house...
