  1. Binders!

    I know there are threads about this but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to figure out how many binders I need to buy for first semester and what sizes?
  2. A way to not work?

    I will not be working during NS. My husband, 18mo old son and I are all living on one income. It's very hard. I have definitely learned to be frugal! BUT I know it will pay off being able to have time to study, go to school, and also take care of my ...

  7. I Went to have a physical and get my tdap and TB skin test done this afternoon. The same doctor who asked me a year ago "are you sure you want to be a nurse?" did nothing but talk about my weight! "if you are going to be a nurse you have to he health...
  8. A little advice sure would be nice!

    Thanks, everyone! I guess I'm takin g it so hard because my normal PCP at the same place is VERY encouraging and was super excited I was going to school to be a nurse! He gave me advice and encouraging words! Unfortunately I wasn't able to see him th...
  9. Stethoscope for fall 2012

    I got an ultrascope maxiscope and can hear WONDERFULLY! I sent my allheart cardiology back. Still may get a littman too, though
  10. Stethoscope problem!

    So, I bought an allheart cardiology dual stethoscope (has bell) for school. I did t really want to spend the money on a littmann just yet. Well, a friend of mine gave me her maxiscope stethoscope just to have as a backup. I'm not very familiar with ...
  11. Frustrated!!!!!!! Am I alone on this?

    Our school accepts strictly by a point system when accepting people. They look at nothing else. You can easily have the points and not the passion. I don't think she's judging. At least it doesn't seem that way to me. she just seems frustrated. Which...
  12. This may seem like a silly question, but I was just wondering what everyone took/is taking to orientation? For example: I know we will be getting a lot of paper work and some books at my orientation (per previous students) Did you take a snack? Lunch...
  13. What did you take to orientation?

  17. Worried to death about dosage cal!

    I took Math for Allied Health last summer. It is required to apply for the Nursing Program at my school. I was terrified when I started the class, but I actually caught on rather quickly! I too have never been a great math student so it surprised me ...
  18. How far do you drive for nursing school?

    Mine is about 1.5 hours one way, depending on traffic.
  19. How did you save on textbooks? Ebooks or not?

    I got 9 of my 12 books from half.com and amazon.com for $230. they make us buy one of them new from the bookstore on campus and they give us 2 at orientation.
  20. I am nervous/excited, like most of you are! I fear failing out and not doing well, while still having extreme confidence (if that makes sense!). I've worked so hard to get here! It's a very surreal feeling! I'm trying to relax and enjoy my summer but...

    My commute will be one and a half hours one way, also! I'm hoping to meet some people that live in my area that I can carpool with. Did you utilize your time while commuting to study? I was thinking about recording important stuff on my iPhone and li...
  23. How did you do it?

    I am married with an 18 month old. I am blessed that my Husband works to support our family while I am in school. I start ADN program at my CC in the Fall! I have done extremely well in College this time around (went 10 years ago and dropped out!). I...
