Do you find that speaking Spanish is helpful in your job? I am considering starting to learn it on my own (have been for quite awhile) and was wondering if all of you here think it would be useful or just a waste of time?

Ick! I hate Sociology! I need to understand Robert Merton's Strain Theory and for some reason I can't wrap my mind around it. I know for sure that it is an essay question on my test Wednesday. Anyone else know anything about it?

OIY! I really have to buckle down and study this crap today. Again CCU...thanks!

I was wondering how you did all this while drinking! LOL! Thank you.

Only 20 Cumulative...then another 100 probably that are on what we are covering now and we'll have some math thrown in there too. Good luck!

Congratulations and welcome to the boards!

I'm VP of my class and there seem to be only a couple of the eight officers we have that want to do anything. Don't let yourself become to "do it all" person and you'll be okay.

OH my goodness. Our final is only 20 cumulative questions and the rest is from what we are covering from now until the end. I will try to skim all the past material but they said it would be the basics and I will keep up with my note typing, etc. u...

I don't think we are getting anything, but I could be wrong. We don't have our final until the 22nd, so they have lots of time to bombard us with things.

AAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhh Tweeters..I feel for you and I am soooo not looking forward to those types of experiences. (it IS nice to know, however, that I have somewhere like this to go and vent when it DOES happen!)

From what I understand some schools go by GPA and others have other standards. We didn't take the NLN, but my GPA was 3.87 when I got in. The first time I got in, it was crummy from high school, but it had been 10 years since I graduated.

Maggie, as with the OP, thank you for the reminder. Sometimes I DO forget.

NursingSchoolWife......you have reminded me, in your despair over your relationship, what is important in my life and I made an effort today to take time with my kids and let them know how much they mean to me. You sound like an incredible husband a...

I guess we are in about mid-range for how long we get off. We end on Dec. 23rd and start up on Jan. 18th. I am cleaning my house from top to bottom, working on financial aid papers and scholarship applications, doing some volunteer work (I hope), p...

Klone....I LIKE you!!!! LOLOL!!!!:chuckle

well...............there goes the compassion!

Do you know for sure that being easily distracted is the reason that she is allowed to take the test in another room? And why worry about what she is doing?

Schools have counselors for these purposes. I know...I just went and saw one after the break in at my home. The school WILL help.

Not only counseling, but it may be beneficial to have a low dose of Paxil or some other anti-anxiety medication. I fear that what she is doing to your family may not be able to be repaired. I sometimes see myself getting into that groove and have t...

((((((((((((((((((Leslie)))))))))))))))))))))) I am so, so sorry. Know that my heart is with you, my sweet adopted sister. xoxoxoxox

WE just learned this week that nurses have the same percentage of drug and alcohol abusers as the general population: 10-15% and that at least 67% of disciplinary issues are related to substance abuse.

Thanks, but I'll rely on my own knowledge rather than someone else's. Personally, I think these people cheating are just taking other's lives into their own hands. What if they make a fatal error at clinicals or manage to squeeze through boards and...

But smokers aren't putting others at risk if they are alone in their vehicle or in their home or on their porch. I'm all for not smoking in public places unless there is a designated area FAR away from others who do not smoke, but to impose on my pe...

Oh come on........a tattoo makes a difference on whether or not someone tells on you for something?????? Am I missing something here?

Smoking is already against the law in restaurants, etc. here in NY state. What are we going to do, make it against the law in our homes and cars? That would be imposing on personal rights. Frankly, if we are going to ban smoking, then lets ban gun...
