Find out what book you will need for that class in September (double check with one of the instructors who teach it, to be sure it will be the right edition). Buy the book NOW and start reading. Ask...
This would be "Rock you like a hurricane", but taken down a notch. Now, related to your avatar, if one were to have a stint in the OR or ED, would it be inappropriate to start singing "I wanna hold...
I guess I'm technically in that same group as a "pre-nursing student", but I usually refer to myself as "a student". However, I don't get too bent about that. At least not as much as the snowflakes...
I saw a lot of attitudes in school like this- students feeling they deserved an A because they wanted it, not because they turned in A-level work. In some of the lower end classes they won anyways-...
It's not just nurses. One of the things I left out of the other thread about "what are they teaching in nursing school these days" is my experience with supervising co-workers in a different industry....
I have an odd sense of humor and like to play around with words and meaning. Sometimes at work I'll say something like "Well, this isn't working how I want, so I'm going to go to lunch out of spite"...
I don't have time to read through all the posts, (I'm on break at work). However, I will say that it's not so much Nursing School as it is something else. My experience (as an old guy of 37)...

I'd sell children for cash. For what it's worth, I can do that as well- I can pick up any book I've read in the last couple of decades and find a specific paragraph or image in a couple of page...
I'm 37 and I've seen a vast difference in people self-diagnosing an assortment of conditions in recent years. As much as I grumple about "the younger generation has it so easy", I'm also aware that...
The username has a history with me. It might be difficult for me to explain, but even if I did I doubt other people would find it as amusing as I would. When it comes to unicorn barf and farting...
Not related to this site, but something that irked me a few years ago. When I decided that I was going to go back to college and start on the path to becoming a nurse, I made some changes in my life....
It's ok to be cynical. :) I didn't see any of those other threads, so I started that one. I wouldn't say that the site as a whole is overly negative as much as it is "realistic". This realism is...
