  1. I need some motivation ... some inspiration. I am beyond tired.

    KMtoRN replied to StudentOfHealing's topic in General Students

    Look how close you are to finals! You are almost there!

  2. Class Times

    KMtoRN replied to esigler81's topic in General Students

    We didn't even have a choice of what to sign up for. Our class times were just chosen for us. We do only have class 3 days per week, but the other two days are scheduled as clinical and labe days. I'm...

  3. Nursing...pre-med, or nursing school?

    KMtoRN replied to Melanie42595's topic in General Students

    This is great advice! I also agree with Emilynn09 - look at the pre-reqs that you will need for both, and work on those first. That will give you a little extra time to job shadow or volunteer, and...

  4. Counting down

    KMtoRN posted a topic in General Students

    Can I just say I can't wait for fall to get here! I bought my scrubs today and as I cross more things off my to-do list I get more and more excited. I had to come share because I know y'all would...

  5. How did you save on textbooks? Ebooks or not?

    KMtoRN replied to CinDRnyc's topic in General Students

    I always recommend bigwords.com. Its kind of like Google for textbooks. It will search all of the sites mentioned and more for the best price on your books. I've always had really good results with...

  6. Nursing school getting expensive

    KMtoRN replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    Shhh! You don't want the gas companies to hear

  7. Orientation(s)?

    KMtoRN replied to CRNBSN18's topic in General Students

    We have two - one for everyone at the college and one for just the nursing

  8. Counting down

    KMtoRN replied to KMtoRN's topic in General Students

    Ugh, our orientation isn't until August. Enjoy

  9. Counting down

    KMtoRN replied to KMtoRN's topic in General Students

    thank you! i :heartbeat allnurses! ours zip up the front which i thought was strange - better than buttons though! congratulations to you too! everyone was really excited when i first...

  10. This wait is KILLING me....ADVICE?

    KMtoRN replied to nurseinthemakin's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The week that I knew letters were going out was the worst one for me. I couldn't sleep, I wasn't hungry - I even yelled at my mom for asking a simple question. It was bad. I got a regular letter sized...

  11. New Student Laptop

    KMtoRN replied to OriginalWingNut's topic in General Students

    I do the whiteboard thing also. I remember so much more when I write things down but I can type soooo much

  12. Counting down

    KMtoRN replied to KMtoRN's topic in General Students

    Haha. I was pleasantly surprised that ours are not as ugly as they could be. They are all white but they aren't terrible. They are bad but not terrible!

  13. New Student Laptop

    KMtoRN replied to OriginalWingNut's topic in General Students

    I second the iPad. I use mine for e-textbooks too and I love it. It is a lot less to carry around and the app I use for my textbooks (kno) will quiz you over things that you have bookmarked. I...

  14. I just don't know what to do

    KMtoRN replied to ncbutterfly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not sure how your class works, but often a really high grade in lab can pull you up a letter grade in lecture. I wouldn't give up hope

  15. Do I take the class over again?

    KMtoRN replied to Brookelin's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would not take the class over. Most schools won't allow you to take a class over unless you get a D or lower. From my understanding (I start nursing school in the fall), your nursing classes will...

  16. Purchasing Textbooks? Best ways/cheapest?

    KMtoRN replied to cherokeesummer's topic in General Students

    I second bigwords.com. It makes it so much easier to compare pricing. I use to go to all the discount sites to check pricing myself but now bigwords does it for me!

  17. How many Nursing schools did you apply to?

    KMtoRN replied to LaceElaine's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to two and was thankfully accepted to both. I applied to a BSN program that based their decision on GPA and an interview. This was my first choice school. I also applied to an ASN program...

  18. Microbiology...Should I Stay or Should I Go???

    KMtoRN replied to jellybean321's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took both A&P I and II in one summer semester. I took Micro in a regular semester. I think I would have enjoyed Micro more if I had taken it in the summer. It was too long in the regular...

  19. Comfortable chair for studying?

    KMtoRN replied to ~RN67~'s topic in General Students

    Ummm, this is a great question! Thank you for asking this. I need to start looking for a better chair before the long hours of studying start in the Fall!

  20. pre nursing no more!!

    KMtoRN replied to momtojosh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations! I'm finishing up my pre-reqs this summer before starting nursing school in the fall. I want to be able to focus on learning nursing in nursing school and nothing else!

  21. It's Official

    KMtoRN replied to OKNurse2be's topic in General Students

    Congratulations! I'll be starting in the Fall with you! Opening that letter was one of the best feelings I've ever had!!! Enjoy

  22. Started Nursing 100 yesterday!!!

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

    Congratulations on starting nursing school! So excited for

  23. positive drug test

    KMtoRN replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in General Students

    I have no idea why it would check for caffeine, but last I checked caffeine was legal. (Thank goodness!) Maybe someone else can give some insight as to why that would even be

  24. I finally got my letter!!!

    KMtoRN replied to kandamom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations kandamom! I would have been trying to bust into the post office all weekend! haha

  25. Any benefits with joining Phi Theta Kappa?

    KMtoRN replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in General Students

    If you plan on getting your BSN I highly recommend it! I'm a member and will be getting a $18,000 scholarship when I transfer to my BSN program this fall. Definitely worth the $65 membership fee!! :-)...
