I take NCLEX on Thurs. I have been studying nonstop but feel SO unprepared. I am literally on the verge of tears every single second because I am so stressed out. i want this so badly. Im so afraid of getting home, doing the PVT and going to the cc p...

Holy Cow! Cant belive im posting this! 14 weeks until graduation...and only 12 of them are school! So excited! Who else graduates in December?!

Jealous! Its going to be the best Christmas present ever!

Our last final isnt until December 23!

i probablystudy about 20 hours a week for school(except finals time, I studied 16 hrs in 3 days this quarter). I have VERY little time between school, clinical, studying and work to spendmuch time at all with my 2 year old. I would say that no, your ...

My psych clinical is 120 miles away 1 way. it takes a little over 2 hours to get there..and we have to be there by 730. My medsurg clinical is about 60 miles away.

We have always done 12s until this quarter. our psych is 8s but med surg is 12s. Its a long day but i actually like it.

My schedule this quarter is Mon-clinical Tues-clinical(12 hours) Wed off Thurs/Fri class 8-1230 so I can work. I actualyl just got a job and an hoping to pick up another one for weekend waitressing.

Nursing is a completely different way of thinking and some people just cannot think like that. Its hard, but you just have to use your brain differently.

I am in my psych rotation now and we are doing part of our clinical (6 weeks) at a state hospital. I am terrified of psych nad really dont want anything to do with it. Im so nervous while Im there that I dont know taht I can be effective for my patie...

Our rotation is at a mental hospital. I am afraid of getting hurt. ALOT of these pts are there bc they cannot function in prison. The first thing we were told was about a nurse getting her cheek bone fractured by a resident last week. I am terrified ...

We go 1 day a week from 7a-7p. Its a long day but I like it.

I dont handle it well. I have a 2 year old little boy who is my life. Luckily, my amazing husband does ALOT of the day to day care for him because IM at school, studying or at clinical. I feel VERY VERY VERY guilty about it but I jsut tell myself its...

Im pretty sure Im the only nursing student ever who LOVES med-surg! Its only med-surg 1 and its only been yesterda and today but I am literally loving it. I have a great teacher and hes really makes EVERYTHING as easy to understand as possible! What...

My BIL has stated that Im taking the easy way out with nursing nad that it wasn't an "important" job. I quickly pointed out that both his mom asd step mom are RNs and he needs to check himself real quick. and I also pointed out that when he had surge...

Considering DH is taking care of ALL of our bills right now(and were hoping to have pretty much everything paid off at tax time), and it will be that way until I graduate...my 1st check is going to buy DS a new toy(hell be 3 and everytime I go to sch...

Im a 4th qurter ASN student. Im taking med/surg and geri and micro. We dont have a med/surg clinical this quarter(we have 2 more quarters of it with clinicals) but I have my first geri clinical on Thursday at a HUGE nursing home. not looking forward ...

Im with the origional poster. I have my first clinical(geri) on Thursday. Its a 12 hour day and Im so nervous. Im not sure what to take with me? They haven't told us anything.

Yeah its pretty intense...Med-Surg + Geri + Micro + Clinical...they just kind of throw us into 12s! Im scared to death (espeically bc Im not a fan of hte geri part).

Absolutely not! I worked my butt off to get into nursing school and have worked my butt off every second since. No reason to be ashamed.

Nervous! We have class MT 8-2 and clincial Thursday 7a-7p...its our first set of clincials(geri) so im SUPER nervous!!

Im going to be honest...in Bloomington, a friend of mine has all As, 1 B and an 89on her TEAS and didn't get it..Have you looked at any different schools around Indy?

We have to wear our scrubs at all times(even in class). I go to an all medical profession college and each program has a different color scrubs...RNs are purple + white shoes and in clincials we have silver name tags.

My school is about $50,000 for the whole 21 month program. Yes its ridiculous however, im done way faster than alot of ppl. My school does take federal loans adn grants though. I did have to take out a Private loan and so far everythings been pretty ...

Do you have a pharm class? We do, Im currently in it and its terribly hard. I was talking to a few friends who have gone to a bigger university adn they said"we have it integrated into all of our classes." Just wondering how many ppl actually have a ...
