  1. Which 2 of these 3 sciences should I take?

    Chem should help with both Micro and Physio...so I don't think it'll matter too much which two you take together. However, most people at my school had a harder time with Physio than Micro, so it...
  2. doc who cares

    Good luck with your surgery! It's great to have a doctor like that. I had eye surgery, too, a couple of weeks ago. We had some questions for the doctor, called the doctor, left a message, and he...
  3. Eating your young

    Chiming in as a nursing student :)... Our school has something LIKE that. It's a mandatory meeting for all new nursing students, and they bring their families (this is after the official orientation)....
  4. Tattoo...

    For my 18th birthday (and hopefully, finishing a year of nursing school ) I want to get a heart tattoo (as in, an actual heart, with the atria and ventricles). I figure, it's partially medical,...
  5. Date MD's??

    I'm weird...I'd go for the nerd If I wasn't already the nerd in my college chemistry classes
  6. do you read everything?

    I'd agree that the notes are pretty much the focus of the tests, usually...so I focus on those. But reading kind of helps me to organize the thoughts a little more...and from the notes I can tell...
  7. do you read everything?

    I'm wondering how it'll be in my next three semesters...I'm guessing that there will be more reading, and probably more of it on the tests, too... I read ALMOST everything. We have a med-surg and a...
  8. We had someone like that last semester...she lasted...two weeks, I think What bugs me about nursing school: Careplans-because no instructor expects the same thing. Clinical prep-I love nighttime,...
  9. Paramedics who 'put down' nurses

    I have two friends who are paramedics...I haven't really talked about it with one of them, but I've talked about nursing, medicine and all sorts of things with the other. He was thrilled for me when I...
  10. choosing a specialty and personality type?

    I'm an ENFJ...and apparently I'd be more suited to being a nun, artist, counseler, teacher and doctor than being a nurse...Scary :chuckle I'm a student, but I'm planning on NICU, maybe PICU when I...
  11. Date MD's??

    I've had a few people tell me that once I'm a nurse, I can easily find a cute doctor to marry...because, of course that's the reason I went into nursing school, isn't
  12. So... advising little sis on healthcare career

    I graduated highschool early, and have always done well in school...so I've heard the "too smart to be a nurse" way too many times:angryfire. What annoys me most is that I heard it from the people in...
  13. NP or MD?

    I've been trying to make up my mind on that one, too... I think I've decided on eventually becoming a NP but I still keep switching back and forth. Mostly, what I like about the NP route is that my...
  14. Chem and Anatomy together?

    I asked the same question, about two years ago, when I was thinking of doing the same thing. And it really depends on YOU. I took Anatomy and Chem together and it worked out fine. But I like...
  15. "YOU'RE my Nurse?!?!?"

    Weirdly enough, I haven't had this problem yet. I'm wondering if I will... I'm going into my second semester of nursing school in the fall, and I'm 17 (homeschooled and graduated early). My...
  16. Is anyone getting "cold feet"?

    I'll be going into my second semester of nursing school in the fall... When I started last semester, I was scared to DEATH. I was a 4.0 student, but was afraid, too, that I wouldn't be able to handle...
  17. NET test

    Here's one practice test: http://www.testprepreview.com/nursing_practice.htm For some reason, though, it has some science and geometry questions on there. There aren't any of those on the NET test, at...
  18. Parental supervision on ped floors(m)

    Just putting my 2 cents worth in here... I'm a nursing student and plan on being a pediatric nurse once I graduate. Before getting into the nursing program, I volunteered at a large children's...
  19. Therapeutic Communication

    I just finished an Intro to Nursing class. It's required to apply for the nursing program. One of the MAIN focuses of the class was "Therapeutic Communication". This annoyed me...well, it amused me...
  20. Nursing Vs. Medicine

    Right now I'm a pre-nursing student at a community college. But I'm pretty confused about what I really want to go into. I'm taking Anatomy and Chem 101 right now and finding that I'm pretty good at...
  21. A&P1 & Chem together: insanity?

    I'm planning, sort of, to do the same thing in the fall. Except, since our CC is changing over to eventually just having A & P seperatally, and since some BSN programs here require that they be...
  22. CPR, etc.

    I was wondering about what type of things I will need to be certified in, and how exactly I do that. I presume CPR, and saw around here other things mentioned like certification to give chemo. Do you...
  23. CPR, etc.

    Strangely enough, it's not a requirement for my CC nursing program. It is a requirement for some BSN programs I was looking into, though, and I planned on taking it anyway. Maybe this
  24. roll call!!

    I just graduated highschool after being homeschooled all my life... I plan on going to a CC in the fall, and apply for the nursing program in fall 05. But, as there's a waiting list (don't know how...
  25. I'm also thinking of going into pediatric nursing. I was wondering, how exactly would I get certified in that? Is that a degree program, or simply a test I have to take after working in the
