  6. ? for those of you who have a research class...

    My class was extremely hard. It was probably one of the hardest classes I've ever taken (probably just as hard as o-chem and physics...harder that my calculus class!) The exams were all application...

    What you've described seems innocent enough but here in the U.S. we have to be careful that the wrong message doesn't get sent. In other countries, greetings with a kiss on the cheek is
  10. Why did you become a nurse instead of a doctor?

    while i agree that there is a lot of schooling involved and some doctors (not all) are on call 24/7, i don't think it's inevitable that all doctors will develop a god complex. if you think you'd...

  13. reporting a collegue

    Sax, don't beat yourself up over this. You're taking action and that's the important part. You have obviously confronted this nurse in the past regarding her actions or she wouldn't have threatened...

  17. Biology question

    If they don't offer candy canes, nice coffee and cookies..I will walk out! LOL!!!!!!!!! (J/K) Too Funny!
  19. Nasty medical students

    Unbelievable! I am currently working on my prereqs to hopefully get into medical school one of these days. After reading this post, I am even more determined to get in. NOT so I can be one of them...
