    Student nurse and Video games.

    Skips replied to jazon77's topic in General Students

    There are plenty of threads with people asking if such and such will be interfered with during nursing school. Once again, it's just that it's video games that stirs up the whole 'immaturity' thing....

    Student nurse and Video games.

    Skips replied to jazon77's topic in General Students

    I don't think it's an immature thing to like to do. There are a lot of adults that like to play video games, just like there are adults that like to watch movies...or garden...or cook. It doesn't make...

    Skips replied to joselyne's topic in General Students

    I got mostly A's this semester, I got one B. D: Almost made it! haha. Anyway...my advice is to read through the chapters once over, then go over the material you need to know with a highlighter. You...

    Yeah, definitely. My husband got through his program and he still played video games. I got through my first semester playing Skyrim. It's totally

    Anyone have to take genomics?

    Skips replied to PCTerrific's topic in General Students

    Embrace genomics! It's really interesting, and you will find that it's really not that bad. I wish we took that as a course itself in my BSN program, but we touched on it a bit in Population Health...

    How many people in your class?

    Skips replied to Dezy's topic in General Students

    I think there are about 60-something people? There were 2 theory classes for 2nd level last semester, which is where we are. This next semester, there are 2, as well. I think there were about 30...

    Posting your Exam Grades on Facebook

    Skips replied to Kateoh82's topic in General Students

    No, I don't find it annoying. Usually, people who post their grades on FB are posting it because it was unusually well for them. Otherwise, I never see grades. Nobody is ever like, "ugh, I failed...

    Finished my first semester of nursing school, but failed pharmacology :( Help?

    Skips replied to bonjournurse2b's topic in General Students

    Yeah, it's tough. However, even though you failed by less than one percent, it's still not passing. I know it's hard, but this is nursing school. If you received special treatment by rounding up your...

    Which states are CNMs permitted to do homebirths?

    Skips replied to moonredlife's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You got it! It is illegal for a CNM to attend a homebirth here in Nebraska. It's not a very homebirth-friendly state. North Carolina did have some issues, I remember reading! And I think Alabama and...

    Last Semester!

    Skips replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in General Students

    I still have 5 more semesters! I'm looking forward to being in the last semester in less than 2 years, though. It's a process, that's for sure. I have completed 2 semesters.

    What was your HS GPA & SAT score before getting accepted into nursing school?

    Skips replied to prenursingprincess's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just asked a ton of questions and kept in touch via email before I got accepted. He gave me all the info I needed and was really nice, but I don't think it helped me get in. My GPA actually helped...

    What was your HS GPA & SAT score before getting accepted into nursing school?

    Skips replied to prenursingprincess's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school does a direct entry from high school, but not a lot of people do it that way. It's a BSN program. I was a transfer student from a community college before I went to nursing school. I wasn't...

    Weeding out?

    Skips replied to wantccu's topic in General Students

    You know what, I've been thinking that way, too. When will it be really difficult like everybody says it is?! I haven't been struggling. I'm wondering when it gets crazy

    Nursing Fundamentals

    Skips replied to Lovely86's topic in General Students

    I agree with previous posts...do your readings! While it does make life a lot easier if you have your A&P I and II background to draw from, this isn't as important for fundamentals as it is for...

    Okay! I don't want to feel like the "stupid" one in clinical, so I mean...it's good that this is "normal". I am so excited for next semester to begin, but I still have one more final on Friday and...

    I do have my CNA, but I chose not to work during school to keep my grades up. I did work as a home health aide for two years prior to beginning school. Thanks for the advice. (: I'm sure I will get...
