  2. A&P Help

    OwlieO.O replied to Lolita34's topic in General Students

    Really, reviewing any of it will help, but because you'll probably be taking pathophysiology the first year, learning the what should be normal about the body will be good to review before learning...

  3. Grey's Anatomy? Scrubs too?

    OwlieO.O replied to Sugar-Phosphate's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I enjoy the show. I wear their scrubs. I don't wear their scrubs because of the show, but I wear them because they are soooooooo comfortable, and aren't flashly like koi or other brands. Alas, when I...

  4. What class to take with Chemistry?

    OwlieO.O replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Chemistry is so easy. Honestly, it's a peace of cake. You should be able to get an A in chemistry with your hands tied behind your

  5. Uplifting video about a pre-nursing student.

    OwlieO.O replied to violetgirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I really enjoyed that. It makes me realize again why I want to do this. I want to be a neonatal nurse too. At the very least in

  6. How Many Classes?

    OwlieO.O replied to jennaroo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I started midyear through, so I couldn't apply the year I started, so I got lots out of the way, and I have 4 total classes left I need to take that are prerequisite. I'm taking another 2 that are...

  7. What class to take with Chemistry?

    OwlieO.O replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Take what you need most. If you need both, do what you feel most prepared for at the moment. I took an easier class set with my first term of anatomy this autumn because I wanted to get a good heading...

  8. Concerns about admissions

    OwlieO.O replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you, Penny! I have no idea if I can. I know we will have an essay, and I may include overcoming and learning-from my past. Here, nursing students don't get interviews or long explanations for...

  9. have you ever seen a female doctor dating a male nurse?

    OwlieO.O replied to kavi150293's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Seriously. I don't know any gay male nurses. All are straight as an

  10. Recommendations: Long sleeve shirt to cover tattoos

    OwlieO.O replied to mmills63's topic in Male Nursing Students

    It's tough to excuse wearing long-sleeve shirts if they reach the wrist due to passing pathogens from patient to patient. Some nurses may even have incontinent patients who are needing to be cleaned...

  11. Recommendations: Long sleeve shirt to cover tattoos

    OwlieO.O replied to mmills63's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Get some ink jackets. Search google for underarmor looking sleeves specially made for tattoos. I will probably have to cover mine until I can remove

  12. Doctors disrespect Male nurses.

    OwlieO.O replied to Jimmyjuice's topic in Men in Nursing

    This ^ And I believe as far as how competitive it is to get into nursing school, including the median GPA being ~3.8 for entering nursing students in my area, that I would say nurses getting in now...

  13. Guys, do you take this personally?

    OwlieO.O replied to bethannie's topic in Men in Nursing

    I wouldn't take it personally. I think it's great when men and women can understand the professional aspect of the nursing position. Frankly, male OB/GYNs are very prevolent, and women usually could...

    OwlieO.O replied to Exhaustipated's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Licking a blood agar plate! BLECK! You should try a MSA with Staphylococcus aureus on

  15. AP1, any tips?

    OwlieO.O replied to RainbowDash's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with Deris. I've been in lab on at least two of my days off to learn things like bones and bone markings. It's helped me so much! I don't know if I would be getting an A without doing extra...

  16. Concerns about admissions

    OwlieO.O replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not sure yet. I will find out soon. I do know the schools in Oregon work off of a point system, points for certain grades in prerequisite classes (major points for an A in anatomy), points for...

  17. Can a Nurse have a Tattoo???

    OwlieO.O replied to futurenurse'15's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I hate to say it, but I will probably get mine removed. I have a half sleeve that goes to the superior-most part of my olecranon space. I have another, peony flower, on my upper left forearm. I hate...

  18. Fall 2012 Microbiology Students -- STAND UP!

    OwlieO.O replied to Exhaustipated's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did microbiology last spring. I got an 89%! I was going crazy to think I was one percent off from an A. Oh well. More points for gaining admission in the bag I

  19. Concerns about admissions

    OwlieO.O replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, for your encouragement. Prayer is much appreciated. God bless and

  20. Concerns about admissions

    OwlieO.O replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are probably the most positive (yet honest) person I've met. I thank you for that. I don't find many caring people anymore. I'm applying to associate and bachelor programs, though I will...

  21. Will I be facing discrimination?

    OwlieO.O posted a topic in Men in Nursing

    I am currently a student (pre-nursing). I am a father, in my early twenties. Today, I finalized my status for volunteering at my church's daycare for during service. I was told that I would not be...

    OwlieO.O replied to Brian's topic in Nursing Humor

  23. A Rough Nursing Shift...

    OwlieO.O replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I actually chuckled out loud to myself! I'm glad I have a lot of stamina as a runner! This is why I'm going to get a PhD and teach nursing students when I get

  24. The Mockery of Nursing

    OwlieO.O replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Interesting enough, maybe these people are terribly sincere and wish to better themselves. Do not be so quick to judge, when you have faults as well. My mother was terribly dyslexic, and she got her...

  25. NPs practicing as DRs

    OwlieO.O replied to SkiBumNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I do know that I will be getting a degree as an advanced practitioner. I know I eventually want to get my PhD and teach other nurses, but I don't think I'll get my "DNP." If I did, due to very serious...
