  1. Needing some encouragement?

    Everline replied to 5ummer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I first started going to college I took an English 101 class. At one point or another, I just stopped going and never properly withdrew. Needless to say, I got an F in that class, which remains...

  2. Debt and Nursing School

    Everline replied to Crew2Nursing's topic in General Students

    I would not pay that much for a BSN if I already had an A.A. degree (which should mean that the "general education" classes have been completed.) I urge you to look into many schools and consider the...

  3. How Much Study & Prep Time to Allow for 1st Year Clinicals?

    Everline replied to SeattleJess's topic in General Students

    We didn't have to prep before clinicals. We did not have to go in the night before. We came in early and got our assignments and then got report from the nurses and proceeded with our day. A lot of...

  4. Mental health

    Everline replied to Ackeem's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Yes I

  5. Nursing is a gift

    Everline replied to Erusso's topic in General Students

    People go into nursing for many different reasons, sometimes even for what they hope will be good benefits and a good salary. I see nothing wrong with this if they are competent nurses. I'm not really...

  6. have anyone suffer from brain fog?

    Everline replied to blahzx's topic in General Students

    I have experienced "brain fog" due to lack of sleep or after getting through a very stressful term. It is usually short lived and goes away after some rest and self-care. However, the way you wrote...

  7. Do not go to sf state

    Everline replied to Kaelee123's topic in General Students

    This sounds like...nursing school to me. Not to say it isn't frustrating, upsetting, or sometimes an inconvenience. But you learn to adjust both in terms of your scheduling and your emotions and...

  8. Nursing student lacking passion?

    Everline replied to misskate098's topic in General Students

    I feel like the passion is under the surface. I know it's there, but nursing school does not bring it out in me. I don't know what's going to happen when I graduate and begin working, but I believe I...

  9. Sometimes I feel like I am not smart enough

    Everline replied to humboldt13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I started pre-reqs, I wasn't sure if I could handle all of the sciences. I didn't even want to tell people what my goals were for fear I would flop and embarrass myself. I was afraid I couldn't...

  10. Is it me? Or is it everybody else?

    Everline replied to remotefuse's topic in General Students

    I am curious as to why the instructor allows this to continue. I haven't had this experience. My clinical instructors sent people home for

  11. Is it normal to not know your clinical location until the first day of class..

    Everline replied to Kandake's topic in General Students

    It's perfectly normal where I go to nursing school. It used to worry and upset me. But now, going into my last semester, I'm completely relaxed about it. They'll work it out. They always

  12. Do you really need a laptop for nursing school?

    Everline replied to xiomara17's topic in General Students

    I had to go one semester without a laptop and so I know the difference. I would not want to be without one again...not in nursing school. It's not that you have to have one. It's that it makes a huge...

  13. Nursing School Makeup (clinicals)

    Everline replied to NurseYomi's topic in General Students

    Yup, I wear makeup. I wear foundation, powder and lipgloss. I never do my eyes up or anything like that. I don't see a problem with eyeliner as long as it's not heavy. Only reminder is that you may...

  14. Is it worth it? My tuition is high.

    Everline replied to rsharif27's topic in General Students

    That's way too much. JMO, of course. There is no way I would get into that much debt for a BSN. No

  15. I'm a New Graduate BSN!!! :)

    Everline replied to ArrowRN's topic in General Students

    That's awesome!

  16. How to figure out mcg/kg/min

    Everline replied to Nursing2102's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Where does this question come from? I think there might be an

  17. Any luck with Michael Linares SimpleNursing

    Everline replied to mskelli30's topic in General Students

    His free videos have been helpful for little things like ways to remember the various types of insulin. I would not pay that kind of money for his paid course/program, however. There are too many free...

  18. Worst semester ever!

    Everline replied to springchick1's topic in General Students

    Congrats on making it through a difficult semester! I've had a couple of them in a row and am soon going into my last semester, too. I wish you the best as move towards graduation...and beyond!

  19. Is my school the only one?

    Everline replied to aspiringrn1987's topic in General Students

    We have Fundamentals, then med-surg I, II, and III. We also have OB/Peds and Mental Health I and II and our preceptorship. All of these are separate courses with clinical rotations. This is not...

  20. Where do we keep our stuff?

    Everline replied to NurseYomi's topic in General Students

    I use digital books so I won't have to lug heavy textbooks around. I use a computer bag for my MacBook and whatever odds and ends I need when I go to class. Having said that, we could request lockers...

  21. What is your clinical makeup routine :)

    Everline replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

    I absolutely wear makeup to clinical! I don't want to scare the patients, lol. I wear foundation, concealer and powder. I don't put anything on my eyes, though, not even mascara because I'm too afraid...

  22. 1st semester expectations

    Everline replied to Val0512's topic in General Students

    I can't really say because I don't know anything about the program you are attending and I don't know what kinds of things you personally find difficult. In general, most people have to become...

  23. Notes: Laptop, Tablet, or Paper?

    Everline replied to NurseYomi's topic in General Students

    I use an app called AudioNote. It records and gives you a space to type notes that are timestamped so when you review them, you know what part of the recording correlates to the notes you were

  24. Notes: Laptop, Tablet, or Paper?

    Everline replied to NurseYomi's topic in General Students

    I use my MacBook to type notes and record lectures. I don't write notes by hand unless there is no other option. I used to think writing things out helped me remember and/or learn them, but then it...

  25. weight gain/energy

    Everline replied to kdpatula's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Going into my fifth semester and I haven't had one cup of coffee. I do try to go to sleep at a decent hour every night. I put an end to studying each day by about 9pm and get in bed no later than...
