  1. Can't Find Varicella Vaccine Anywhere!

    x_factor replied to x_factor's topic in General Students

    I'm going to speak with them tomorrow morning before class. This is definitely very frustrating, for

  2. Can't Find Varicella Vaccine Anywhere!

    x_factor replied to x_factor's topic in General Students

    Just tried nearly 25 Rite-Aid stores that, online, say they offer it, but once I called they do not and only offer the shingles vaccine. I'm getting so discouraged, and a little worried on what I'm...

  3. Can't Find Varicella Vaccine Anywhere!

    x_factor replied to x_factor's topic in General Students

    Just an update... I cannot find anywhere that offers this vaccine. I've called every Walgreens in a 4-5 hour radius from where I live, and almost all offer the Shingles vaccine, but not the Varicella...

  4. In LVN/LPN school....

    x_factor replied to Kaligirl02's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If you are starting an LPN program at a school and this progam does not offer an A&P course, you need to run from this school. And

  5. Almost done first semester!

    x_factor replied to SunshineDaisy's topic in General Students

    Only 1 week left until the end of my first semester too, and I can't wait! Ready for a nice break,

  6. failed my clinical rotation? very worried..

    x_factor replied to mursetudent25's topic in General Students

    You were supposed to be watching not just 5 year olds, but AUTISTIC 5 year olds. And instead you were studying? What happens when you are a nurse one day and your elderly, frail patient attempts to...

  7. From Pre-LVN to NURSING STUDENT

    x_factor replied to heavenleedesire's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats!!

  8. Financial aid for LPN as a second degree

    x_factor replied to adawnl's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Fill out a FAFSA to see if you qualify for financial aid, and check Fastweb.com for different available scholarships. My entire LPN program is being payed for with a Pell grant that I qualified

  9. IS 15,000 to 20,000 a reasonable loan for LPN

    x_factor replied to shanie818's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Yikes, that's high! I'd look for a technical or community college. My LPN program is only $3500 for the entire 18 month

  10. History of psych ward stays

    x_factor replied to SugarBabe99's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Actually, there's a very good chance they may have to know. At my school, we had to fill out a form, which was to be sent off to the board of nursing to make sure that we were "licenseable" before...

  11. Any pre req takers? What pre reqs?

    I'm taking Microbiology, Chemistry and Intro to Computers (required

  12. Cheating classmates

    x_factor replied to jrt71's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There's 2 cheaters in my class as well, but thankfully the teacher caught on. As a result, she now watches them like a hawk, and they can no longer cheat. As a result of not being able to cheat, one...

  13. Titers for nursing school

    x_factor replied to deeshaun's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know my nursing school in particular wants recent titers. Those are over 18 years old, so you'll most likely need them re-done. The only way to know is to contact your school and ask for their...

  14. How soon you will be drug tested after admission?

    x_factor replied to The ER Biker's topic in General Students

    Anyone that has a concern over failing a drug test has NO BUSINESS being a

  15. so I found out...

    x_factor replied to mommywithplenty's topic in General Students

    If it were me, I'd let it go. It's just not worth the drama of confontation. I've had the same problem at school. There is a girl in my class that has the exact same attitude, but in her case, she...

  16. Community College? You must be stupid.

    x_factor replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in General Students

    I am going to a local technical college for my LPN. When I first got out of highschool, I got accepted into a large 4 year state university. I stayed for 3 semesters before flunking out, because I was...

  17. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    x_factor replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    *This thread is so awesome, LOL!* To the fellow student that always comes to class 20 minutes late, and gets up every 20 minutes for a "break" and constantly brags that you are too bored to pay...

  18. Getting A Head Start - Good Idea?

    x_factor posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a little confused, mainly because my classmates are letting off confusing signals. Okay so, we got our booklist for the Spring semester early, and one of my current teachers (who will be teaching...

  19. help...

    x_factor replied to smily11's topic in General Students

    Whether you continue into nursing or not is a decision only you can make. Yes the courses are challenging, and tuition can be a major problem, depending on the amount, and where you go to school...

  20. I failed my nursing exam AGAIN!

    x_factor replied to hopeless romantic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I flunked the science section of the TEAS V by a long shot. Like 38% or 39% was my score, it was brutal. However, it was not the end of the world. I was still allowed into the nursing program, I was...

  21. How often do you study?

    x_factor replied to tag2007's topic in General Students

    It really depends on the amount of classes you have. Right now I have 3, and spend roughly 2 hours a day studying. Next semester, I'll have 6 classes and some are much more advanced than the classes I...

  22. Getting A Head Start - Good Idea?

    x_factor replied to x_factor's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Glad to hear the coloring book and flashcards were a good investment, I can't wait until they arrive. I definitely don't plan on spending hours a day studying the A&P book, or you're right, I'd...

  23. Using Older Edition Textbooks?

    x_factor posted a topic in General Students

    I was wondering if anyone here has used an older edition textbook, as opposed to the newer edition, in some classes? Example, I have a few different books for my Pharmacology class starting in...

  24. Book Suggestions?

    x_factor posted a topic in General Students

    Does anyone have any suggestions for supplemental reading/studying for nursing classes, especially A&P or Pharmacology? I have those classes for my Spring semester (along with other classes) and...

  25. Book Suggestions?

    x_factor replied to x_factor's topic in General Students

    Thanks a bunch! I looked online at the Mosby's Pharmacology Memory NoteCards you mentioned, and I'll be picking those up as well. The reviews on them look to be excellent, so I'm excited to get them....
