    Can't get it out of my head

    MaxAttack replied to MissJessica,RN's topic in General Nursing

    You are an amazing person and most definitely deserved to be called a hero. If it's bothering you, I would suggest talking to someone in your family and let them know that it's been really rough for...

    Broward College August 2010

    MaxAttack replied to NMG86's topic in Florida Nursing

    Haha, I really wouldn't put it past BC to do that...even though, by their own words, the purpose of the HESI is to evaluate “academic readiness" of students entering the program. Oh, BC.. Congrats...

    Oh dear.

    MaxAttack replied to Lunah's topic in Emergency

    They have these down here in South Florida beside the highways..and my thoughts exactly. They even have it where you can text a number and an automated system will text you back the wait time, likely...

    Starting prereqs at BC!

    MaxAttack replied to MaxAttack's topic in Florida Nursing

    Classes are going great, minus the lab. The quizzes at beginning of class account for over half of our total grade, and they're only 10 questions so there's not a lot of room for error. I think the...

    Should I Go Into Nursing

    MaxAttack replied to hope4thehurting's topic in Nursing Career

    I'm glad you picked up on that - nursing has one of the highest rates of injury and ED and psych are among the most dangerous. Don't fret about the math and science - if you get a good professor,...

    I also posted this in the pre-nursing student fourm, so if it looks familiar... I need suggestions or any help with my A&P I lab, so here goes: As a quick background - here's how our lab grades...

    A&P I Lab Help!!!

    MaxAttack posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok, as a quick background - here's how our lab grades are determined: 10 question quizzes at the beginning of class (10 points/class) 3 lab assignments (3 points/class) Final lab practical (60 points)...

    A&P I Lab Help!!!

    MaxAttack replied to MaxAttack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mommaof3, great idea about the department chair, I'm sure they'd appreciate it me going to them first. I like the idea of the practical outweighing quizzes - if she's worried about us just blankly...

    A couple of questions.

    MaxAttack replied to nursingstudent6368's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a student so I can't give you a lot of help, but I'll give you what I know just to kick this off From what I know: ADN vs BSN isn't going to make a great deal of difference - they pay the same...

    If Nurses were paid $8.50 per hr, would you or would you not

    If Nurses were paid $8.50 per hr, would you or would you not

    MaxAttack replied to RNnbakes's topic in General Nursing

    Personally I think it's a great question. I've seen too many people criticizing others for choosing to enter nursing for money or reasons other than compassion. I believe the first thread on the...

    When coffee is no longer enough,

    MaxAttack replied to Katie5's topic in General Nursing

    Every now and then I'll completely cut caffeine out for a while and let my body readjust. When I start again it's almost like drinking it for the first time and I don't have to drink three cups a day!...

    This is why I love my job

    Agreed. You're a bit of amazing and it's stories like this that keep my mind focused on why the hours I spend studying are worth

    thug got shot and crying

    MaxAttack replied to C-DIFF PHIL RN's topic in Emergency

    Calm down, slugger. The most that was identified was a 28 year old involved in a shootout. Happens every single day. Sure, becoming a gangster might have been his best option, and economically would...

    MaxAttack replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Nursing

    Lol I love psych, but they can be incredibly naive. I always found it rather stupid to try and condense the range of human personality and emotion into a scale that you can test for. This question is...

    Not cut out to be a nurse

    MaxAttack replied to sistasoul's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above posters - there's no such thing as being too sensitive and sympathy is part of life. You're human and these feelings are natural and normal and I believe the profession needs...

    Things you'd really like to say to patients but can't.

    MaxAttack replied to november17's topic in General Nursing

    I worked as a waiter for years and I've always been a huge proponent of tranquilizers. Everyone goes home happy! You could always point him in the direction of the nearest luxury hotel and remind him...

    2 Bachelor's degrees + ADN = means nothing???

    MaxAttack replied to KamiK85's topic in General Nursing

    I'd have to disagree; a hiring manager who saw someone with those qualifications should see you as invaluable to their team. You have an intimate knowledge of biology and psychology, both which are...

    5 hour energy drinks? Other alternatives?

    MaxAttack replied to xyra's topic in General Nursing

    They have as much caffeine as a cup of coffee, so the 1/4 cup coffee idea won't work so well. Daily exercise is the best thing you could do for yourself. It'll put you in a better mood, make your...

    I'm saving microbio for next semester to take with A&P II. I hate how they have special editions specifically for Broward - it makes it impossible to find better prices online. Example: The...

    Anyone that is going to judge you based off your teeth isn't someone worth knowing anyways. I'm sure there's a lot more to you than your teeth
