    Live.&.Learn replied to Live.&.Learn's topic in General Students

    Live.&.Learn replied to Live.&.Learn's topic in General Students

    "Patient" was fully clothed, and I was a nervous wreck so when doing lung sounds I would be off a little, then correct myself. Then there was a couple of range of motion exercises that she said I...

    Live.&.Learn replied to Live.&.Learn's topic in General Students

    I'm not going to blast you for saying this...I went over and over and over all of it. What it came down to on the exam was the blood pressure. Why I was waitlisted 5 times for this program was...

    Live.&.Learn replied to Live.&.Learn's topic in General Students

    I agree with you that 8 points is a lot and can definitely make a difference, the whole situation just seemed completely unfair. Other students were allowed to do things over on the spot. I've only...

    Live.&.Learn replied to Live.&.Learn's topic in General Students
