  1. Anyone waiting on Acceptance/Rejection Letter '2012

    studentgolfer replied to PedsHopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What really sucks is when the letter is actually sitting on your kitchen counter and you are dreading opening it because it's not thick enough in your opinion. I was accepted to a spring 2012 program...

    studentgolfer replied to thiscatscheesy's topic in General Nursing

  7. Does it pay to know spanish?

    studentgolfer replied to KCRustin's topic in General Nursing

    This is in the minnesota forum for a reason, the OP is probably from MN. Your guys' posts "it may be different in different regions" is irrelevant since she posted this in the MN forum. I bet you...

  8. When working in the hospital Which Floor is the Best Floor

    studentgolfer replied to cscott123412's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    Since you are a NEW Nursing Assistant, the best floor in a hospital to work on will be any floor you can get hired on. Hospitals don't like to hire new pca's with no experience. I really doubt you...

  9. Does it pay to know spanish?

    studentgolfer replied to KCRustin's topic in General Nursing

    My two cents, coming from a CNA that's worked med/surg in a hospital for 5 years, is no it will not benefit you that much. I can;t speak from a hiring manager's point of view but I think it would...

    studentgolfer replied to mbmn's topic in General Nursing

    Great to hear this I took classes at AR, as well as Century and it's good to hear that I can still go on to CRNA (I'm sure his grades were great). I totally agree with saying NO to an LPN as it is a...

    studentgolfer replied to JaredCNA's topic in Men in Nursing

  15. Textbook nursing vs. real world nursing.

    studentgolfer replied to dudette10's topic in General Nursing

    I feel like this is a saying that catches on with the students in your class that you know aren't going to be a good fit for a nursing career. The ones with little or no patient care experience but...

  16. Fired....What now?

    studentgolfer replied to Traum-a-Rama's topic in General Nursing

  17. You paid HOW MUCH for nursing school??!!

    studentgolfer replied to NSGstudent12's topic in General Students
