  1. Conversion Charts?

    Does anyone have a link to an online metric conversion chart? My Pharmacology teacher gave us a practice quiz on basic metric conversion and I can't for the life of me remember what they are!

  4. We had our first class last night. I have the same teacher as last semester for A&P I so I already knew what to expect. I think we're going to have 5 tests including the final. Later we're...

  7. I got my skeletal exam back last night! I made a 93.5!! I didn't think I did that well due to the fact that I didn't study as much as I should have. But much to my suprise I passed. I guess the...
  8. Public Speaking?

    Did you take a public speaking class? That's a prerequisite for most nursing programs. I used to have a fear of that until I took it, I realized it wasn't half bad. I just imagined talking to one...
  9. This belongs in it's own thread but I wanted to post it here since it is the A&P 1 club thread and I hope to get better response here. But I need some tips about how to study the the Epithelial...

  15. How did you find out about allnurses?

    I found it from a link off of another message board. This site has been very helpful to me and I love the support that we have for each
  16. I also posted this on the Radilogy Nursing board but I haven't gotten any replies yet but I'm hoping to have better luck here. I know that there are a few people who post on this board who is or has...
  17. Nursing School vs. Rad Tech school

    Thanks for the reply. I did look into it and the requirements are just about the same as the LPN requirements at my school. Just one or two extra classes thrown in there. This is just something I'm...
  18. Nursing School vs Rad Tech School

    Well, luckily the Rad Tech curriculum at my school is alot like the LPN curriculum. I already have math, public speaking, psychology and one of the englishes out of the way. There's not really any...

  21. I'm an LPN student and in our handbook it says that some clinical facilities require the students to carry medical insurance. I have none now because I had to leave my full time job for nursing...
  22. All new lpn students tell me how it is going

    I'm in my sixth week. It's going ok. So far we've had 4 tests total. I did good on some and not so good on others. We've had check offs on handwashing, vitals, transfers, NG tubes and we're about...
  23. Thank you very much. I'll keep that in
  24. I've read other people's posts on here saying that some facilities in their area will let new grad LPN's work before they get thier liscence. Does anybody that lives in the Birmingham area know any...
  25. Help with taking BP

    To reinterate what dave1117 and sabRN2b05 said, you can practice by holding the diaphraghm/bell in a way that would drown out the background noise. You can hold on do the diapraghm with your thumb...
