  1. Am I the only one???

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to clucito01's topic in General Students

    Its all subjective. I personally try to see the best in people, even if we disagree. I am not one to judge, I leave that to God. I have encountered many negatives and negative type people in my...

  6. Has anyone ever seen a surgery?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to kdbean530's topic in General Students

    @kdbean530: I have only limited experience with surgery. And, that experience is that of the point of view as a patient. I've had 5 surgeries starting when I was 16 up until last year, I'm 38 now....

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to AnxiousRNtobe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    @AnxiousRNtobe: Stick it out, and finish what you started, is what I say. After you graduate and start working as a PA, only then, will you really know if nursing school is in your future. Its very...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to Ele_123's topic in General Students

    @Ele_123 Pharmacology at my school is taken during the second semester of my nursing program. If I was able to take it sooner than that, I'd probably would. If you're given the choice to take it...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to JeneraterRN's topic in General Nursing

  11. How can I do this????

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to lperkins85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is this Biology class a prerequisite to taking A&P and Micro? Because, if it is then I don't see how it would be possible. You can discuss it with your school advisor and let him know what your...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to ashburns4ever's topic in General Students

    @ashburns4ever You might as well head straight back to school once you graduate, if that is the case for you. Why bother looking for a job if you feel that it will become hopeless? I don't think...

  14. Procrastination...why now???

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to hopefulUS's topic in General Students

    The nursing school enthusiasm is gone? I get it. And, all of this after only one semester? The question you should ask yourself then, maybe. Is this the type of attitude you want to take with into...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to joysimone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The BSN is the goal you want to achieve. How you get there depends on many factors. Yes, its easier just to shoot for the BSN and get it done and over with. However, if you will be attending an ADN...

  16. Nurse trying to scare me away from RN/Nursing in general

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to camci's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to Ev1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My A&P was broken up into two parts. I had Anatomy one semester and Physiology the next. Physiology was much better in my case and I enjoyed it so much more than Anatomy. I learned alot in both...

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to trulyblessed2013's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to Lala718's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  25. To old to be hired anymore?

    ♑ Capricorn ♑ replied to kathylorr's topic in General Nursing
