  1. What was your hardest class and how did you study for it?

    Julesmama28 replied to VAgirl247's topic in General Students

    Pharmacology! It's tough but so full of great info. I don't use flash cards either, just not my thing. I did tape the lectures and listen to them again while doing laundry etc. it really

  2. Stressed out student

    Julesmama28 replied to Beaks1981's topic in General Students

    I'm starting my fourth semester in 5. I can't believe I've come this far! Just a minute ago I was mourning the denial letter I got for my BSN program. I brushed myself off and did what it took to...

    Julesmama28 replied to Nurse2Bstacy123's topic in General Students

  4. Drug Cards - Can't fit it all...

    Julesmama28 replied to bamboowoo's topic in General Students

    My instructors have told us to narrow it down to pertinent information for your patient population- such as no needing pregnancy adverse effects if you're working with the

  6. When does/did your semester end and how did you do?

    Third semester here too! Grades just

  7. So done with underwhelming clinical experiences

    Julesmama28 replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry your experiences have been lacking. That's frustrating! I can only say that about one mental health rotation- 3 days where I spent them sitting in the RN office of an outpatient clinic....

    Julesmama28 replied to momtojosh's topic in General Students

  10. Winter Class(es) Anyone?

    Julesmama28 replied to smoup's topic in General Students

    No way Jose! I'm taking 5 weeks off and going to enjoy every minute of it!

  11. Would you do nursing school all over again from start to get your degree?

    Julesmama28 replied to northmississippi's topic in General Students

    He'll no! I'm not sure I would do it now, I'm only 3 semesters in! It's way too much stress, work and tears to start anew. Yikes. Just the thought stresses me

  12. What does your countdown look like?

    Julesmama28 replied to krisiepoo's topic in General Students

    Two more lecture days, 3 finals then Christmas vacation! One year exactly til

  13. Starting the nursing program in January 2014

    Julesmama28 replied to sweetpea7427's topic in General Students

    Congrats!! I am one year away from graduating in a 5 semester BSN. Nursing school is something that you just can't comprehend till you're in it. Love the comraderie. Hate the back stabbing...

  14. I'm tired.

    Julesmama28 posted a topic in General Students

    This semester is wearing me down! I couldn't wait to start nursing school, especially couldn't wait to start the real clinicals- let alone the mother/baby and NICU ones...but I'm tired. Love nursing...

  15. I'm tired.

    Julesmama28 replied to Julesmama28's topic in General Students

    Oh I'm so glad I'm not the only one! I have one more clinical day and a bunch of finals. I have eight kids so coming home at night really isn't a break...even if I didn't have homework. Lol...

  16. Spring Classes 2014!!!

    Julesmama28 replied to BandZero's topic in General Students

    Good luck! You only get 5 weeks of mother baby? We have 16 weeks of lecture and 8 of clinical. It's still way fast! I just registered for semester #4! It's gone so fast, I'm loving it. Only two...

  17. 5 More Weeks!

    Julesmama28 replied to Stephalump's topic in General Students

    I feel like we're living parallel lives! This semester has been my worst, by far. Tough stuff going on at home. Then I had mental health clinicals and barely made it through with my own mental...

  18. You won't believe.....

    Julesmama28 replied to NanikRN's topic in General Nursing

    I am a student right now and although I would not have said that, I probably would have thought it! I hope that you don't forget how awkward it is to walk into a strange place, with strange people...

  19. Advice please. LPN or RN. Halfway through and not sure what to do.

    Julesmama28 replied to vc01ca's topic in General Students

    Ditto. Stick with it! Life's too short for "what ifs"! Don't set yourself up for failure, focus on the fact that you ARE passing and at some point will be finished. Don't leave with regrets. Good...

  20. L&D Clinicals - 3 Babies!!

    Julesmama28 replied to krisiepoo's topic in General Students

    I start OB clinicals in 2 weeks! Can't wait! I'm finishing up mental health now and while informative...definitely not my cup of

  21. Do you prefer more tests or less?

    Julesmama28 replied to sMoLsNurse's topic in General Students

    More! Some classes are harder to know how to do well in until it's too late! I also think the grade shouldn't be dependent on just test scores. That is not indicative of how much you've learned!...

  22. 2013-2014 HRSA Nursing Scholarship Program

    Julesmama28 replied to driven2012's topic in General Students

    Me too, it's a no go for me. I am somewhat relieved though, I am glad I am not committed for two years after

  23. Where do YOU sit in class?

    Julesmama28 replied to Caribbean Character's topic in General Students

    Front row, every time! Helps me pay attention and not get distracted by other students. Yup, I'm one of the annoying

  24. How do you establish a Student Nurses' Association chapter at my school

    Julesmama28 replied to avianale's topic in General Students

    Go to the national SNA website, it'll tell you how to form a local and national SNA group. If you don't have enough students to qualify for national then it's just up to the rules your school has for...

  25. Failing....? Your school's policy?

    Julesmama28 replied to KJoRN81's topic in General Students

    Our school is similar to the others here. Fail once and you can retake the class, fail twice and you're out. There are five people in my level now who failed it last semester. All by one point!...
