  1. What is harder A&P or Micro?

    Streamline2010 replied to aubreyeve's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I really enjoyed the microbiology, but my interests lie in chemistry and applied science. I found A&P I a completely tedious bore. My school split the A and the P parts, and the I class was just...

    Streamline2010 replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in General Students

    RIGHT ON, daystarmike !!! I also went from business and manufacturing to RN School, and got a permanent dismissal for telling the twits that having 75% - 80% of the class fail at least 2 exams...

  4. Classmates complaining about program, I think it is fine

    Streamline2010 replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in General Students

    ^ That fact is one that, in my opinion (ThatGuy ) should be told to prospective students, indeed, should be drilled into their heads, before they ever submit their applications. Compared to typical...

  6. Failing 4th semester....feeling like a failure

    Streamline2010 replied to Leesha's topic in General Students

    That's it: Nursing-educator-think, in a nutshell. Blame the student. Up is down, down is up. "Student, if you are having a miserable time, then the problem must lie with you, not us."...

  7. What would you want?

    Streamline2010 replied to RN1488's topic in General Students

  8. Very Discouraging

    Streamline2010 replied to hmjensen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Rio Salado offers 8-week online classes, or 12-week options. Might be good for soc and psych and math and gen ed

  10. CSUS costs for the nursing program

    Streamline2010 replied to wilcox77's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Find the One Stop or Workforce Development site for that state / county. Look up the WIA / TAA training provider list for that state. Search for RN (or LPN if that's what it is) programs and see if...

  11. PAX PN entrance exam taken yesterday...what does my score mean?

    Streamline2010 replied to ShesAcuteNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took my preadmission tests in early 2010. The NLN PAX and the HESI pre-entrance exams are pretty similar. to each other. I used a Cliff's Notes Biology book since I never had general biology, the...

    Look at the WIA / TRA / TAA training provider list for that county. Or Google for your state's One Stop site or workforce development site. Those schools on the provider list have to tally up a...

  14. Questions to ask potential schools before you apply

    Streamline2010 replied to AOx1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If they list just Nrusing I, II , III, etc. with not a lot of detail, make them give you the detail before you commit to anything,

  15. Questions to ask potential schools before you apply

    Streamline2010 replied to AOx1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How is the curriculum structured? Is it "integrated" or "block." (I am struggling with a diploma school program that is positively insanely arranged just to get people through the facilities that the...

  16. I am so frustrated with Anatomy & Physiology :(

    Streamline2010 replied to Jonahyona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ^^^ Oh, and THAT is the philosophy of nursing programs too, btw. "IF you can't keep up, either keep up or get out." I really wish someone had warned me about the workload of even the 2-year programs....

  17. I am so frustrated with Anatomy & Physiology :(

    Streamline2010 replied to Jonahyona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going to give you (all) some advice, of the been-there-done-that, and decided that R.N. is not worth it anymore: The A&P experience that you are having could be a very accurate barometer /...

  18. My gut is telling me you are not a nurse

    Streamline2010 replied to ksc0723's topic in Nursing Career

    That post makes perfect sense to me. So does the one about find a job that has nothing to do with humanity. It sounds, to me, that what you need is simply a job that revolves around satisfactorily...

  19. I really want to succeed, but...

    Streamline2010 replied to ngerste's topic in General Students

    Maybe you didn't pay attention to one or more "rights" of medication administaration as your school teaches it? That's all I can think of, offhand. See thread:...

  20. Starting classes 10/25.. Any advice? :)

    Streamline2010 replied to JulieVN:)'s topic in General Students

    The test questions for Nursing will not be just "the facts." They will be structured so that you have to apply the concept(s) or make some kind of decision using whatever they taught you. Two...

  21. I hate being a nurse

    Streamline2010 replied to okthen's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Well, as a nursing student (adult), I have seen patients like that, many of them. I wonder just how is warehousing brain-dead 100-year-olds in nursing homes until they die with pneumonia and huge...

  22. Taking Microbio and Statistics at the same time?

    Streamline2010 replied to green_girl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I love math (it's easy and systematic, and I wish all of life ran that way, lol) and I have a lot of chemistry and lab experience, so I found micro not very difficult, and a whole lot of fun,...

  23. People who trivialize nursing

    Streamline2010 replied to ILovetorun's topic in General Students

    Tell them that they are mistaken about what registered nurses actually do. It's a very hard job, and a lot of difficult material to learn, because a R.N. must do the CNAs' job, the LPNs' job, and the...

  24. Anyone else in a diploma program?

    Streamline2010 replied to ashleyisawesome's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the replies, everyone. So I suppose I was correct in thinking that three entire days of yap per week is detrimental to my education. I have been through the entire range of emotions since...

  25. WVU Parkersburg AD RN

    Streamline2010 replied to Streamline2010's topic in General Nursing

    I applied there and was accepted, but ended up going to a diploma school because I had to be a full-time student in order to use the Trade Act funding to pay for it. The diploma school is a fiasco,...
