    Getting a C in Nursing

    I have seen it in a lot of posts so I just had to vent a little. Please stop making earning a C for your nursing class the end of world! It's not! Nursing classes are hard and while some may simply...
  2. VERY rarely do nursing classes transfer when it comes to completing an RN degree. I have heard of BSN classes transferring but not the initial

    How to study Medical-Surgical Nursing?

    See if you can talk to someone that has already had the class to get what the assigned readings are. Do not just try to tackle that whole book....you'll fry your brain and most likely you use that...

    Where do you all get textbooks from

    I google the ISBN and am not afraid to go an edition back. While everyone spent 150+ on their nursing books, I paid 17 bucks and the only change is a table or two and the pages numbers. I can't...

    Class of 2014

    Honestly, repeating really helped me being more comfortable with content. I feel more ready for those

    Class of 2014

    I'm so excited as well! Only one semester to go! This past semester was extremely hard because I had to repeat Med Surg and most of my fellow classmates and nursing buds graduated last week. But I'm...

    First successful IV start

    We don't even practice or learn to start IVs in our school :/ I think we practice on a dummy arm but how much can I possibly learn from

    Nursing school starts on Monday....

    Both of you take a deeeeep breath, it'll be okay! Just be sure to do your readings, study smart, and do NOT be afraid to ask questions! A big mistake a lot of students make is to struggle and not seek...
  10. I will be graduating in May 2014 with my ADN from a private Catholic college. I had originally planned to continue onto my BSN there as I have already knocked out a lot of Bachelor courses. Now though...
  11. I'm interested in Frontier, which I'm fairly certain does not require LD experience unless wanting acceptance before the one year nursing
  12. The L&D experience probably isn't going to happen. Those positions are few and far between here in central Pennsylvania. I will most likely relocate to Atlanta in a few years but really wanted to...
  13. Glad to hear it :) I can apply right after I get my NCLEX date so that's what I'll do. I am 31 so I don't want to spare anytime before going after what I want. I was offered a place by one of my...
  14. I agree. People are so quick to hate on things they know nothing about. I had heard lots of good things about the program and did some research, as what anyone considering a school should do. I have...
  15. Yes I was aware :) I'm hoping to get the BSN while working. Gosh next year? Is there a waiting period? That's one thing about my school, I got right in. It's not cheap because it's a private Catholic...
  16. The reason I don't is because of that year of experience. With the way the job market can be, I would rather go ahead and get started on my BSN right away. Plus school loans will not start yet. I have...

    What type of agenda do you use for nursing school?

    Hell they still make them! I saw some at
  18. Gawd I wish ours was 77%...our is 79 and I got a 78...that 77 would have been nice, hehe. OP said theirs is 82. That's
  19. My last semester was like that. I struggled the entire semester and it finally came down to the final which I passed but missed passing the semester by 4 points...so lucky me is taking it over. My...

    What type of agenda do you use for nursing school?

    Oh hell yeeaaazzz I get a monthly planner, a bigger one to write all tests and when paperwork is due. I love having that all in one place. They provide all dates but it's usually in several different...
  21. Whow..that was kind of just not nice..had to put that in a nice way. Seriously though, they are right. Nurses are not the perfect deity in the hospitals. I worked as a pharm tech in a hospital for...

    School books/supplies are too expensive!

    I got a great one last year at Best Buy. 350 for a Toshiba

    School books/supplies are too expensive!

    I buy one edition back so instead of paying 180 for my nursing book I paid 17 dollars. I have used previous editions in past semesters and it worked out just fine. I have paid maybe 80 bucks total the...

    How much are you paying...

    My school is about $10,000 a semester. It's a private Catholic college which is why it has such a high price tag. Now I do NOT pay that much. This school has a lot of scholarships and grants available...
