  1. Ah, that makes sense. Or pick a CNS depressant and a CNS stimulant. Good
  2. I don't know what I want to do with my RN

    Everybody is always asking me WHAT I want to do once I'm done with school. I still have 7 quarters, so that's a good amount of time, but I honestly have NO idea. I get a lot of strange looks when...
  3. Maybe she means another drug in the same category? OK, that's my bet. lol Sorry for all of the posts. So in that case you'd review Maxalt or something.
  4. Nursing assignments cause migraines. Go with that.
  5. The OPPOSITE of a drug? That makes absolutely no sense to me. So you should find a drug that causes
  6. HELP!! My husband is killing my study schedule...

    Stop trolling this
  7. Anyone okay with just being a nurse?

    I'm in an ADN program, I don't even think I want to get my BSN. Maybe, we'll
  8. I just ROCKED my final! :)

    YES! I just wanted to post up another positive post. I just kicked butt on my first final! :) I ended up with a very solid 'A' in the class. One more final to go! I really struggled my first...
  9. what to focus on?

    Focus on the lecture and power point. The teacher can't talk about everything, but it's pretty likely that what they do talk about is
  10. Death of a great professor!

    Aw, sorry! I hope you'll be able to attend a memorial service or send a note to his family...I'm sure they would really value what you just said!
  11. Do you mean that you specifically feel like a target, or is this a general feeling about how your program is going? I actually think nursing instructors are obligated to do some "weeding." We all...
  12. Do NOT go in there with fear. She's an adult, you're an adult. You already decided what the worst case is, and I agree with all the pp's that it's very unlikely. We ALL make
  13. Teaching Environment

    That is absolutely NOT normal. I have never had an instructor like that. Does your school go in phases where instructors teach certain blocks? At mine the same teachers do quarters 1-3, then 4-5...
  14. Volunteer for Hospice?

    I think you should grab every experience you can get your hands on and take it! As far as this part I quoted...there are some different schools of thought about this, and sadly as I read this you've...
  15. Is Pharm really that bad?

    NO. I really think nursing students do a great disservice to thier fellow students by creating all of this drama about certain classes, teachers, clinical sites, etc. I heard the same thing about...
  16. Soooo... Are you at a disadvantage at NS? I think I am.

    Get a bike AND helmet. You can get a super cheap deal on
  17. clinicals

    I am this way too. I don't feel confident. It's hard, and very stressful. You're right. I think the reasons for not feeling confident are legitimate, nobody can really argue that. The crux of...
  18. Don't work if you don't have to. I'm a SAHM to 3 little kiddos. I work from 6:30 am - 8:30 PM M-F. I'm in a hybrid program, so I go for labs in the evening once a week (I find a sitter) and have...
  19. CARDIAC HELP

    My take on your question is that you are trying to memorize the blood flow. IT WON'T WORK. LEARN it. You have got to know and understand this. The way the heart moves blood is critical in...
  20. Study tips

    Read to learn, not to memorize. Don't just understand concepts. Understand WHY things happen. And what that means for your patient in all aspects of thier health and care. KNOW your...
  21. Nursing Students Needed for Anonymous Survey!

    I don't believe in
  22. It's actually NOT so bad!

    Wait a minute.....you mean all of the drama queens were WRONG!? I can't believe
  23. Pediatric stethoscope?

    I'm one of those "sound purists," so take it or leave it. lol First of all, it might not even matter. Your rotation in peds will probably be in a hospital, and they may have dedicated equipment...
  24. Confused about recapping in the medroom

    We are told to never recap a USED needle. You're going to have to recap, there's no way around it. Sometimes you can't use a blunt fill or filter. I would stick with exactly what your clinical...
  25. HELP!! My husband is killing my study schedule...

    Well, your first obligation is to your family. You have to live with them, and you keep them after you graduate. You need to make sure you set aside time to spend with your husband so he gets what...
