    Nutrition Summer 2010

    I took it intersession over the winter- piece of cake, and yes, more boring than I thought it would be, though I think my teacher did a fairly decent job of making the assignments

    Previous edition books?

    I've taken all my "other" nursing classes (pretty much all my other credits EXCEPT nursing 1, 2,3,4) and have yet to use a current edition. I did ask all my teachers first, and only one said she...

    hospital salary

    I'm sure every place sets their own policy in regards to this. I don't know about the situation where I work, but I can tell you that the hospice nurses are the only people in the whole system...

    Anyne going to HVCC? (Hudson Valley)

    I need that Comp 2 class but couldn't get in- the drop was today, though, so I may be able to swing it on Monday. I don't know what the cut-off was, but I do know that it pretty much had to be high...
  6. Just wondering if anyone here is starting that RN program at HVCC in the fall. I'd love to know some of my classmates before starting because I am horribly shy when I first meet people. I'll be in...

    I got a job

    I remember you were looking into CNA training a few weeks ago- didn't realize you were looking at other healthcare options. I would have told you to move to Albany and I would have hired you in my...
  8. Good point- I didn't consider that. And congrats, OP!!! Always happy to hear someone else is closer to reaching their goal.

    TEAS V or TEAS IV?

    Test V is updated and supposedly harder (according to my school.) I know around here some are using 4 and some are using 5. I know of at least 2 schools near me using 4 that will accept 5 with some...
  10. I know I've read this before and that it is supposedly the same for that particular program TYPE, but I've never seen two program averages that are the same, so I'm not sure we're interpreting this...
  11. Looks like your program average is pretty low. My school has a higher average, but even so, people who got 72s got in, so you may have done well enough for your program. Best of

    Microbiology, Summer 2010

    My class starts in two weeks- all online, lab at home...can't wait to be done with my A&P II class and get started with

    getting thru clinicals without throwing up

    I'd never even changed a baby diaper the first time I had to clean an adult. I never thought I'd be able to do it (paid my friend to change my cousin when I was babysitting him) but it isn't really a...
  14. I LOVE watching House (seriously, who doesn't love an angst ridden bad boy who can play piano?) but it makes me crazy. I can not STAND IT when those doctors do every single procedure the patient...

    Anyne going to HVCC? (Hudson Valley)

    That's precisely the reason I'm taking it online, over the summer. I work full time (this is non-negotiable for a variety of reasons) and don't want to stick my daughter in daycare every day of the...

    Cheap textbook sites?

    Hmmmm...my longest wait was probably 10 or 11 days, and that was coming from the west coast (I'm on the east.) Some books come REALLY fast. I had to do expedited shipping on a book after I ordered...

    How are you celebrating the end of Spring finals?

    Unfortunately I only have a few days off between my A&P final and the beginning of my online micro class, but I took a week off of work. I'm "the boss" and it gets very stressful overseeing the...

    Anyne going to HVCC? (Hudson Valley)

    Did you get your letter last month or did you get in as an alternate? I'm so happy that more people are getting in that have been waiting. You should definitely go talk to Cathleen. When I called,...

    Cheap textbook sites?

    i see i posted too late and you already bought a book...just wanted to add that i hope you did a coupon search, because retailmenot and couponcabin always have valid codes, and i also forgot that one...

    Cheap textbook sites?

    i've purchased all of my textbooks for the past year from alibris and have never had a problem. just be sure to read the description carefully (and maybe even go to the individual seller's website to...

    please help these senior nursing students!!!

    LOL- I'd love to get an assignment like that (DH is a tv producer/director/editor/graphic designer.) Good job- looks like it almost might have been a FUN group project! Good

    I got in....

    Great news!! I was so excited when I got in that I wanted to share with everyone I saw (still do) but nobody "IRL" seemed to understand what a HUGE accomplishment that is these days. Congrats on...

    Mature Student: Job Prospects?

    Being older can be an advantage because some employers may think you are more stable than a twenty year old, which you very well may be. I wouldn't get discouraged before you've even graduated-...
