    alisonelizabeth posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    i've been hearing horror stories (well, okay, reading here on these forums..) about the math quizzes at broward. something like: there's a quiz at the beginning of every class and if you fail one...

    I am bringing my clinical skills textbook, although we will likely not be using it the first day. We'll likely be watching some old videos. :) But just in case! And don't forget your portfolio or...

    Anyone else at Central campus in clinical tomorrow- just logged in to Blackboard and looked at the Calendar, where it says we're supposed to meet up tomorrow at 815 am....unlike where in the welcome...

    Hello, all, I'm a re-track from the Janurary semester, so I'm taking NUR1020L again this semester (passed everything else fine, messed up the return demo). I go to Central, so just wanted to clear...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, I'm glad that it seems they want caring and compassionate nurses-that's a plus;) I love the Memorial Healthcare system. I've had struggles with a few other hospitals, and they've been...

    So, passed the math test on the first try and the vitals on the first try- although I made a really dumb mistake with my stethoscope when going to do the apical pulse and forgot to turn it so the bell...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    I was wondering the same thing, because the packet seems a lot easier than what we were doing in class, and a lot more straight forward....but I don't remember! I would ASSUME that if that's what she...

    How's everyone feeling about our upcoming math exam? And Vital Sign check offs? And Return Demo? I never thought I'd say this, but I'm most confident in theory class. Lol. I guess it makes...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    The times I've gone into the lab, the instructors seemed to be taking more of a 'babysitter' type role, watching over the group. I don't see much assisting going on, and while I do realize that's up...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    By the way, when I was going through our schedules and the upcoming things we'll have to do, I noticed that our next theory exam is Feb 7, and the Feb 8 is our Return Demo for clinical (if you have it...

    alisonelizabeth replied to couturediva's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm sorry, but I have to point something out here- the instructors accept performing certain skills a different way or in different orders than the book presents them, but if you do your vital signs...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    I got a 40/50 on the exam. I'm relieved to see how I did and now have a 'base' of sorts to go off of, but most unsettling is that I expected this exam to be much harder than it seemed, and much more...

    alisonelizabeth replied to sunshinegirlFlorida's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, I would make sure you go over things you don't remember from A&P I a bit, make sure you know your A&P II decently well--for both, read the Anatomy & Physiology section of the HESI...

    So... after clinical today Prof K came to me and we went into the office and sat down and Prof S was there too; they said that they could see just how much I wanted to succeed and pass and that I was...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    I've definitely been looking at the objectives a lot more, and been looking at practice questions and taking those. It seems like the key is first really learning how to answer the question...

    alisonelizabeth replied to blondiemix's topic in Florida Nursing

    It was given in class, and unfortunately we weren't allowed to bring them home. But if you go to the lab and sit at the computers they have a test taking success thingy, and if you take that, they...
