  5. One iphone app I use is called NCLEX RN QBANK. It's 0.99 but so worth it!
  6. I am just finishing up my first year of nursing school. I have been copying and pasting every one of my NCLEX quiz and exam questions from every class, with rationales, into file. I thought about converting these questions over to flash cards and usi...
  7. It's funny...I have two different apps on my phone and use them quite a bit too. As the time in nursing school goes on, I have noticed I'm getting a little better each time. Something must be sinking in!

    For emmyers...I went to the county health department to get my immunizations. They only cost $15 each for my 2nd mmr and TD. I think they do titers there too. I can get you the number if you need it. And jillane...I actually DID cry. I was accepted ...

  12. I have been accepted into a nursing program starting this Fall (yay!). At orientation, we were all given a Health History and Physical Examination Form to complete- part for us and part for the doctor. I guess my question is this: Could or Would I be...

  16. Applicants to Portland area schools

    Well, it is official. I just notified Mt. Hood that I am declining my position for the Fall term. Ugh! I still can't believe how difficult it was to do that. I was really torn between CCC and Mt. Hood. But I feel really good about Clackamas. I am sti...
  17. Applicants to Portland area schools

    I wanted to let everyone know that I sent in my decline letter for PCC waitlist #18 today, and I am declining my acceptance to MHCC. Here I come Clackamas. I still can't believe how tough of a decision it was. But it will be fun to meet everyone that...

  24. Applicants to Portland area schools

    So is everyone excited to hear from Clackamas this week? I wish I wasn't so hard on myself about it. I just really feel like I froze on the essay and that it probably hurt my chances...hmmm...hmmm...hmmm.... Did anyone else think it was a little hard...
  25. Applicants to Portland area schools

    I think you just have to go into a program with the idea that you are GOING to make it work and become a great nurse. There are always going to be teachers that you don't click with. I know I have had a few along the way in my pre-req's that I didn't...
