  1. This may be a silly question..

    skulskcc01 replied to CRNBSN18's topic in General Students

    I work on a tele floor and have never had to use an otoscope. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but unless you specialize or work at a doctor's office you will never use

  2. Large dose of reality just received!

    skulskcc01 replied to RainbowDash's topic in General Students

  3. Nursing school and working

  5. Study groups?

    skulskcc01 replied to lace2010's topic in General Students

    I personally don't do well in a study group. They have always turned into a gab session and were not productive. I am in nursing school to become a nurse, not make friends; as harsh as that may seem...

  6. How do you do a study group?

    skulskcc01 replied to KLBatchelor's topic in General Students

    I may be one of the select few, but a study group does not work for me. Anytime I have attempted to study with a study group it always turned into a gab session. Also, I recall a time when I was doing...

  7. Good study method or too OCD?

    skulskcc01 replied to CRNBSN18's topic in General Students

    I am the same way. The nursing instructors scared the crap out of me in my first semester saying "You must read or you will fail!!!". So, I read for the first exam and boy was it a waste of time....

  8. Interview with a pain clinic- red flags?

    skulskcc01 replied to Rocketeer's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    In my area and many others (according to many posts on this website) the job market isn't as hoppin' as it use to be. The poster clearly stated she was interested in working in a pain management...

  11. What EXACTLY is a care plan?

    skulskcc01 replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

    For me, what makes doing a care plan so long is writing up all of the meds. Names, side effects, classes, route, dose, frequency, pharmological action. At my school our care plans consist of an...

  15. Anyone else feel this way?

    skulskcc01 replied to Crazed_NS's topic in General Students

    It is completely normal. I am going into my 3rd semester and I am excited yet scared. I want to be a nurse so badly, yet I hear horror stories of people failing. It scares me even though I got a 92 in...

  16. I'm about to take an exam in a few week's time...

    skulskcc01 replied to DichloroacetateAl's topic in General Students

    Take your time. Read each question carefully. Remember Maslow, ABCS, and ADPIE; these will help significantly if you are debating between 2 "right" answers. Good luck

  19. Do/did you enjoy Nursing School? Or hate it?

    skulskcc01 replied to Jayden8139's topic in General Students

    Honestly, I love nursing school. I am in an ADN program and I start my third level in the fall. I enjoy going to lecture, I love clinical, and am one of those freaky people who likes to study and...

    skulskcc01 replied to kosmic2003's topic in General Students

    I love, love Saunder's Comprehensive review for the information. As far as practice questions, after seeing and using many other review books I feel it is lacking. Only about 10-15 questions per...

  24. Dropped test

    skulskcc01 replied to JonB04's topic in General Students

    Yes. My micro teacher dropped two tests and made an "A" an 85%. She curved big time. I still earned an "A" anyway and am doing well in the nursing program. I start level three in the
