  1. Advice for Med Surg? ANY & ALL Advice!

    Melodies of Legend replied to Guest11/16/14's topic in General Students

    The short answer? All of it. Especially since most instructors try to stress more common drugs. Believe me, they do come up during clinical and you'll be glad you studied your butt off in patho and...

  2. UNLV- HESI A2 exam

    Melodies of Legend replied to Nita12's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    How were your A&P grades? Have you taken the classs recently? Did you finish taking both 224 and 223? There's a very broad spectrum of questions on that topic. A&P questions were more "big...

  3. Be a renal nurse and not work a day in your life

    Melodies of Legend replied to abbyrenalRN's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Thank you for sharing your story and his. I choose to become a nurse, not work as a nurse and I want to always remember that. I'm sorry that my cat voted on your poll; she loves to sit on my laptop....

    Melodies of Legend replied to theodorerhoades's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go straight for RN. More pay, more jobs available to you, and more variety in settings to suit what YOU want to

  5. ASBN Programs

    Melodies of Legend replied to BritneyB27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You do need to understand basic chemistry concepts as a nurse; I can honestly say it helps with understanding pharmacology and pathophysiology. I'm in an ABSN program and boy do they not have time to...

  6. any one get a accepted into program with Bs?

    Melodies of Legend replied to mwilso2318's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To put it

  7. Will I use my knowledge from prereqs in nursing?

    Melodies of Legend replied to RHill9919's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes. Questions in nursing school exams are written as if you got at least a B in A&P and remember ALL of it. The nursing professors don't have time to review so don't cram in A&P now, study it...

  8. CNA, but don't want a RN career or in health field

    Melodies of Legend replied to zara ray's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I say kudos to you for knowing what you want! Don't be pressured into becoming a nurse if you're not passionate about it, money alone won't be worth

  9. Advice for getting a CNA before nursing school

    Melodies of Legend replied to TKeith8109's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Well, here is my experience; please take it with a grain of salt. :) I got my CNA license right before starting my accelerated BSN program. I find that if I want to keep my GPA high AND actually get...

  11. Help! I've Fallen Behind in Reading and I Can't Get Up

    Melodies of Legend replied to ArrowRN's topic in General Students

    I record the lecture and combine that with the lecture notes. Afterwards, I would fill in the gaps by looking up specific things in the book that I didn't feel were covered thoroughly enough by my...

  12. CHAD degree then ABSN or Straight BSN?

    Melodies of Legend replied to KZE15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Firstly, look up which school has a higher NCLEX pass rate and start asking around which hospitals favor which grads. This will make a huge difference and make your choice clearer. From what I heard,...

  13. CNA instructor

    Melodies of Legend replied to pkt00's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Maybe you can post a powerpoint of the things you're going to say and key terms a couple days before the class. Make it mandatory that the students read it and then look up/e-mail you any terms they...

  14. Can you use on Resume "nursing assistant"??

    Melodies of Legend replied to WhatIsLife?'s topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I think not, unless you have worked as a nursing assistant. It would be so not worth it if a potential employer thought you were being dishonest. Just my two cents here- to put that you are a nursing...

  15. Nursing School Blues

    Melodies of Legend replied to englishgeek's topic in General Students

    Me time is so very important. I'm currently not working which is helping, but I can't imagine working or having children while in nursing school. My mentor said you have to really try to do something...

  16. What is the average of a nursing student?

    Melodies of Legend replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Students

    We have one as young as 18 and another who's nearly 40...but I must say, the gals in their 30s look great. Almost all of us look like we're somewhere in our 20s

  17. How *not* to draw up morphine

    Melodies of Legend replied to anashenwrath's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thanks for the heads up! You have a comical way of writing-I love

  18. Nurses: Why do many of you do this?

    Melodies of Legend replied to terina66's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It can't be a HIPPA violation if no names, room number, exact ages, ect are being used. Even in my microbiology class, when we did case study projects the information like symptoms and lab results...

  19. Failed 1st Fundamentals Test

    Melodies of Legend replied to BillieP's topic in General Students

    I would make an appointment with the teacher and ask for study tips. Tell your instructor how you study for the class, how long you are expected to study (most teachers will not sugarcoat it for you),...

  20. Vent about scrubs

    Melodies of Legend replied to NellieRN10's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    They may just have larger than average breasts. It would make it seem like they did that on purpose to show off. My scrub top is so enormous, that it goes down to the middle of my thigh, is very loose...

  21. I'm not going to lie...

    Melodies of Legend replied to StudentOfHealing's topic in General Students

    I got my CNA license last summer. It's just a semester long. I took it over the summer so it was only 7 week, but still had 210 clinical
