    New ABSN student overwhelmed by reading assignments

    Pink Magnolia replied to guest99$3's topic in General Students

    I use the PPTs as a guide to read the chapters bc not everything will be covered in the chapter. This seems to really help. I also recommend using your ATI book if you find yourself running low on...

    Pharmacology

    Pink Magnolia replied to Graduation2016's topic in General Students

    I always determined which drugs were going to be tested. I hated flash cards by hand but loved making outlines/cards and tables on my Mac. I called it my "packet" and I would take it everywhere! It...

    Should I Retake?

    Pink Magnolia replied to nicole1125's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would try applying and see how it goes. If you have issues getting in to a school of choice, then I would retake a class or two. Why retake classes if you don't have to? Just give it a go and see...

    Why do nurses "eat their young"?

    Pink Magnolia replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    Some unhappy people want other people to be unhappy, and will "eat" anyone in site! I've learned how to ignore the negative nancies. Sure...sometimes it gets under my skin, but I don't allow it to for...

    Has your clinical instructor helped you or held you back?

    Pink Magnolia replied to nowim clean's topic in General Students

    At one location, we were able to pull the medicine out (we were given a code), but the instructor had to be there when I did all 3 checks and 6

    Worth complaining about or just whiny?

    Pink Magnolia replied to melc0305's topic in General Students

    I agree with pp. It's technically not fair, but this happens a lot everywhere (not just NS). If you are truly concerned, tell your instructor how you feel in a professional and non-agressive

    Pink Magnolia replied to sonias's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    No problem! I had an exam over this stuff a few months ago, and this same concept is what I used to study. I hope it's useful for you.

    Pink Magnolia replied to mariedee33's topic in General Students

    I realize you are upset and I would be as well! You think you are doing all you can and are giving it your all, then that! Some instructors are cranky souls and some are just amazing! Sometimes I...

    Today I made a big mistake.

    Pink Magnolia replied to student-rn's topic in General Students

    Pink Magnolia replied to sarsoora8's topic in General Students

    I wish I would have listened to what others told me, but I'm hard-headed! Do not do anything! They will prepare you with what you need when the time comes. They do not expect you to know things before...
