  1. night/weekend nursing schools

    I am in an evening/weekend ADN program. We have class two "nights" a week from 3:45pm-7:30pm (not what I'd call evening, but close). Then we have clinical different days. It changes in our program....
  2. Feeling down and out about Nursing school

    I was disappointed the first semester as well. I ended with a B in theory and A in the other courses. However it wasn't long before we started agreeing that C=RN. It doesn't matter what grade you...
  3. Beginning of last semester!!!

    I'm with you!! I graduate in May. 131 days until the Graduation
  4. I work full time (40 hours a week) in a geotechnical lab (testing soil, which has nothing to do with health care. lol), have 3 children and I'm looking forward to entering my last semester of the...
  5. Could use some encouragement.

    So I'm in an ADN program, 2nd semester. I'm borderline failing. If I don't do well on my next two exams, I may actually fail which would be terrible. I've been so stressed I can hardly think...
  6. Could use some encouragement.

    In this program for the 2nd semester, they just have beginning med-surg for 5 credits, with the clinical rotation practicum course for 4 credits. The way they figure the grade is complicated. All of...
  7. Nursing Games is taking its toll

    I am in the evening/weekend class at my school and we lost 2 within the first 4 weeks of class. Now we're down to 8
  8. Is this normal?....

    Yep! Same way with me. It happened to me at the end of the 4th week of the first semester. Went back to class on Monday and realized that over half my class (small class of only 8 people since 2...
  9. What's so great about a pinning ceremony?

    It's a long ways off, but I plan to attend both the commencement ceremony and the pinning ceremony. If I had to choose between the two, I'd probably just choose the pinning ceremony. But since I...
  10. So, I should just be excited right about now. I mean, I've gotten my immunizations, background check, drug screening, CPR certification, everything that I, as a student, am responsible for. Our...
  11. This disorganization is making me very anxious!!

    I borrowed about fifty bucks from my mom so I could get the required homework packet for orientation today. I saw that packet and thought "Oh my! What have I gotten myself into?" Just the homework...
  12. This disorganization is making me very anxious!!

    Haha. Thanks. A friend just reminded me that I have to learn to adapt as I'll hear PLENTY of times in nursing school (she's entering her senior year at a different school). I guess I just need to...
  13. Studying

    I am the same type of learner. Also, I never had to study until A&P. I learned in A&P II that how the information stayed in my head was to make my own practice quizzes. Also, for lab, I'd...
  14. 3rd shift clinical...Will i get enough experience?

    I'm just starting my nursing program next month. We'll start clinicals in September. I work full time and have young kiddos, so I'm thankful my school has an evening/weekend program that I was...

  17. Nursing school getting expensive

    Haha. I don't start until August and I'm already saying that. And also "I hope I meet someone with the same study habits so I have someone to study with". Somehow, I don't think my husband and kids...
  18. Using a white (dry erase) board to study

    I'm so glad you mentioned the dry erase boards! I must get one! While taking A&P II, in order to study for lab exams, I'd take my camera with me to lab, take pictures of what the actual thing...
  19. Am I right for nursing?

    Hi there. Honestly, I don't think anyone can answer that for me. I've been in your shoes and wanted someone to help me decide. But I just had to think it over and talk with my husband and decide...

  21. Rose State RN Fall 2012

    Sorry to Josh and Amber about barely missing the cutoff for points. But hang in there! Your turn will come. I was told that the cutoff keeps getting higher and higher, getting more and more...
  22. Hep B Titer "negative"

    I just had to sign a waiver. I've never had a HepB immunization. My school requires either a record of the series (3 shots), a positive titer or a signed waiver. I signed the waiver because there's...
  23. Congratulations! I've received my schedule. There are some off-weeks where we have to go every day for special things or extra clinicals. But aside from that, I have Fundamentals on Mon and Thurs...

    My clinicals are from 2:30pm to 10:30pm on Saturdays (some Fridays
  25. Feeling lost

    I know how you feel when you say you feel like time is against you. I've been there. I've been taking classes part time for years and finally just got accepted into my ADM program. I'm 27, married,...
