  1. Weeding out?

    Compassion_x replied to wantccu's topic in General Students

    Every semester is a weeding out semester. Semester 1, if you can't grasp the basics, you're out. Semester 2 is what's hardest in my program (at least from what I've heard from everyone I know!)....

  2. Last Day of Clinical!

    Compassion_x replied to Mrsladysoul83's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm lucky, the first semester in my program is/was pretty easy. I finished my 4 weeks of clinicals nov 5th, and had my last class on this past Thursday. My final exam was online too

  3. Do pre-reqs need to be completed before applying to an accelerated BSN program?

    Compassion_x replied to nursinghopeful6969's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Call or email your school, they'll give a better idea of what you will need to do in this

  4. Will being on anxiety medication hinder me from becoming a RN?

    Compassion_x replied to Amdecl6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why would you ever need to tell the nursing program what medications you are on? That is private health information. If you don't want to tell them you don't have to. I have had problems with anxiety...

  5. Practical Skills Test Issues

    Compassion_x replied to ashesxo's topic in General Students

    Xanax. Just kidding. Kind of. I have a lot of anxiety in a million different situations so I have PRN clonazepam that helps somewhat. You just gotta do a lot of studying beforehand, watching videos,...

  6. Winter Break

    Compassion_x replied to NICUmiiki's topic in General Students

  8. To skip these classes or not...

    Compassion_x replied to xAllisonWonderlandx's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If you are not at all comfortable with your A&P knowledge, and you can financially afford to retake them, do it. Otherwise, you'll end up having to study A&P on top of your nursing classes,...

  9. Lpn questions

    Compassion_x replied to Pampofo's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If you are not taking the TEAS I wouldn't use a TEAS study

  10. What is your schedule like?

    Compassion_x replied to becalee26's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    My first semester went like this: Quarter one: Monday, class 1-4. Wed and Thurs class 8-10. Quarter two: Monday clinical 6:30-11:30. Tues and Thurs class 10-12. I had three classes this semester (I...

  11. Is this a Med Error? I have been kicked from clinical. Help

    Compassion_x replied to nursing?s's topic in General Students

    She should have just asked you to pull out the MAR first before signing....wouldn't (and shouldn't) have been that big of a deal. Unless I'm missing something

  12. I hate my pharm book!!!

    Compassion_x replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    Google search. Seriously, there are a lot of different drug guide books, and if you want to find one you like, look into it on your own. Most of them are fairly similar, but vary in price. And there...

  13. My chances and options. Please help! Opinions and advice wanted!

    Compassion_x replied to murseing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't give up yet, you've barely

  14. Perfectionism

    Compassion_x replied to Austincb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know how you feel. It's so frustrating to be SO CLOSE to that A!!! I have 91.5% in one of my classes and it's frustrating that I am 3% away from an A! I'm hoping to get there before the semester...

  15. People say the funniest things in school...

    Compassion_x replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

    I've done it before. Desperate times = desperate measures! It was...cold. Really cold. And it didn't really help as I had BV and not yeast lol. But I was young(er) at the

  16. Is Doing Rn to BSN degree online a good idea!!

    Compassion_x replied to Harkirat's topic in General Nursing

    Because college is the only way for group interaction? Sorry, but I disagree. If you already have your RN, you've already done most of the hands on part of nursing. RN-BSN is generally more leadership...

  17. Question about Bedside Manner

    Compassion_x replied to lilemma's topic in General Students

    What has helped me more than anything has been working as a CNA. I've been a CNA almost 2 years and it's really helped, as I am also an introvert, generally quiet

  18. What is the one thing that turns your stomach?

    Compassion_x replied to FDW630's topic in General Students

    Vomit. The only thing so far I cannot watch someone do without feeling like I'm going to vomit as well. I don't like ostomy bags and such, but I can and will do them with a straight face, so its not...

  19. A&P

    Compassion_x replied to 1futurenurse12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't worry about it. Most A students end up making B's in nursing school. Once you get to the core nursing classes, you are learning a totally new way of thinking, really. And besides, the most...

  20. Should I take Microbiology and Human Anatomy & Physiology I in class or online?

    Compassion_x replied to spellma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In class is what I would

  21. These two idiots need to have their nursing licenses revoked

    Compassion_x replied to guest416560's topic in General Nursing

    That is gross. They should be charged with something here. And have their licenses revoked. Who in their right mind does

  22. Group projects

    Compassion_x replied to NICU:)'s topic in General Students

    This is what makes me hate group

  23. Am I Failing?

    Compassion_x replied to truckinusa's topic in General Students

    Ask your instructor if you are failing and what you would need to do to pass. They know their grading scale and curriculum better than we

  24. Anatomy and Physiology I Difficulty

    Compassion_x replied to RNtobe2016's topic in General Students

    I got As in A&P 1 and 2. I absolutely love it. And usually when you love something you do well in it. So, take an interest in it, it is the human body after all. Starting at the beginning of the...
