    its_meee replied to lth1123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  15. I received this email from a professor. I was a little shocked. Opinon?

    its_meee replied to kdflet's topic in General Students

    its_meee replied to hkqueenx3's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    My dad had COPD and died of emphysema in 2004. In advanced COPD just about EVERYTHING will cause the patient to be SOB. Becoming SOB is a scary feeling for patients and I think your patient is afraid...

  20. Is A&P 1 the most difficult class in nursing?

    its_meee replied to NewKillerStar's topic in General Students

    I got straight A's in my prerequisites...had a 4.0 actually. Then nursing school happened :) I'm still a decent student, but A's are very rare, B's make me jump for joy, and C's I'm completely OK...
