    flyersfan88 replied to blondy2061h's topic in General Nursing

  5. Testing out of A&P

    flyersfan88 replied to beccaboo322's topic in General Students

    Testing out of A&P is an awful, awful idea. Also, it's a little more than memorizing names of bones and muscles, so I'd imagine testing out without any basis of the knowledge would be quite...

  8. Ordering used text books on Amazon??

    flyersfan88 replied to ilovemythreeguys's topic in General Students

    Maybe they're not, but the book companies sure do take advantage of us broke students, and it's hard denying that! They get representatives to come into our class and tell us the importance of the...

  9. Ordering used text books on Amazon??

    flyersfan88 replied to ilovemythreeguys's topic in General Students

    Just a little perspective, I'm working on my 2nd Bachelor's degree at my 4th school.....never once have I ever seen a "bundle" cheaper than buying everything separately elsewhere. My med-surg bundle...

    flyersfan88 replied to StudentOfHealing's topic in General Students

  14. Did everyone have a 4.0?

    flyersfan88 replied to britthohenbrink's topic in General Students

    I had not even close to a 4.0 as an undergrad....and just finished my first semester of my ABSN program with a 3.82. I think I just do better with this because I truly do love it and "get it". So...

    flyersfan88 replied to freckles23's topic in General Students

    flyersfan88 replied to freckles23's topic in General Students

    I didn't even finish reading, so I'm sorry if this was answered....but why on earth was a COPD pt on more than 2L of O2? Uhh....no wonder she stopped breathing. What on earth is going on with her...

    flyersfan88 replied to StudentOfHealing's topic in General Students

    Those people make me so mad! Today my patient almost coded because the nurse in charge of her walked out of her room without a second thought about her after pushing 2 mg dilaudid. Her dose was...

  23. Best Stethoscope?

    flyersfan88 replied to RedHeaded2bNurse16's topic in General Students
