  1. 15 posts rule?

    So I'm trying to reply to a message only to find out that I don't have 15 posts to reply to a message. So I can't even thank the person for much needed advice. Whoever thought of that...
  2. Career Switch Update

    Over the last week, I discovered this great site and I received lots of advice as to how to proceed with my life. As you may know, I'm in my first year of pharmacy school. This spring was not a really...
  3. Wow! This must really be a tough time for you. Thank you so much for sharing. This will definitely help me better assess a career in nursing before it is too late. Particularly, the things I don't...
  4. Food for thought

    So it seems a lot of people on here are career changers. Just like me, many are worried about accumulated debt and have come to notice that perhaps, nursing is that one career that may bail them out...
  5. The Nursing Math Thread

    You set up the problem right. Here you don't worry about minutes because you are ask the answers in mg/hr or ml/hr respectively. 25,000 units / 250ml x 30 ml / hr = 3000 units / hr If the question...
  6. Food for thought

    Thank you so much! I am not sure why I'm feeling this way. In my youth, I racked up all the good grades believing I'll find the perfect career. But this is far from reality. I see people here that...
  7. B.S. Business but wanting nursing now

    Looks like a lot of us here are career
  8. The Nursing Math Thread

    I'll be willing to help if I can see your thought process based on the info given
  9. Career Switch Update

    I guess I am more confused than when I posted first time about career switch. I'm hoping scoring above 90% (took all the sections) in the Kaplan test among other things will let the school know that...
  10. Career Switch Update

    In pharmacy, many students had pharmacy tech license, hence they have a part-time throughout school or summer. Some engineering students who knew they would go engineering route, are math/science...
  11. The Nursing Math Thread

    Without trying to confuse you too much, allow me to suggest a fantastic method to solving multiple-step problems. The cure: Dimensional analysis! You'll see it in chemistry and especially dosage...
  12. What if I fail again?

    Congrats on your decision! I'm sure it was not an easy one. If you have a science, math question at a time that is inconvenient to ask in school, post here! Heck, we'll learn together!
  13. 15 posts rule?

    There is no question that this site provides ample advice for those who seek it. Amazingly, this is a great place to come for comfort, career decisions and my gosh, literally anything one needs to...
  14. I envy you

    Some of the enthusiasm I see here (I'm fairly new to this site) reminds me of when I was first starting pharmacy school. It is contagious in that given my recent doubts about pharmacy school, I'm...
  15. I envy you

    I appreciate your thoughts. They should serve me well. There is always a fear factor when one switches career plans... Once I get over that, I should enjoy it throughout. For me, I suppose the...
  16. What if I fail again?

    Whoa! I apologize if I came across that way. That was not my intention. Nowadays, it is tough to speak the truth on the merits. We sugarcoat things so much that we fail to do the hard and necessary...
  17. What if I fail again?

    Let us break it down somewhat: if you are motivated about your studies, this will often breed success. Sadly, competitive schools will see a failure (or withdrawals) just two times in the same course...
  18. What if I fail again?

    GirlDotson, This must be a very difficult time for you. I know you mentioned having a lot of study guides. It would help if you could really assess how you distribute your study time from what you...
  19. Honest opinions needed

    Hello! I am new here and I'm hoping a nurse here will be able to help me out. Some of the questions I have are not that I am considering nursing solely for the money or that at other times I am...
  20. Honest opinions needed

    I was not talking about the vast majority. I did say many of them. And, pre-meds circles are worse. Anyways, the purpose of this thread was to look for a solid career choice based on sound advice. I...
  21. Honest opinions needed

    Thank you all for replying to my post. There is no way to address these issues without appearing less dedicated while trying to escape the kind of work that nurses will be called on to do. I apologize...
  22. I seriously do not know what to do!

    I have not heard too many people talk about the CC nursing route and get an RN. Then if you want, apply for a BSN later. At least, you have your feet in the
  23. Wondering if I should change to nursing

    I am a pharmacy student (taking time off to decide on a career path as my grades were also beginning to slip) and originally, I applied because I was looking for post-graduate training to be a...
  24. The Nursing Math Thread

    Hey all! I am brand new to this thread. So I was browsing on here to learn a little more about the profession and I came across this problem. Though it was answered, allow me to just show a different...
