Thanks for the tips!... I also worry about the way I dress.. as funny as that sounds... I just don't have the $$$ for a new wardrobe! I know it doesn't really matter for clinicals since I'll be in scrubs.. but as for class and everything.. first impressions mean a lot. Hopefully I can stand out in other ways!

I'm in a hospital affiliated nursing school. I've finished my 1st semester, which was courses at a nearby college. Semester 2 is about to begin and I will be beginning clinicals as well... I don't know what has gotten into me but I'm RIDICULOUSLY nervous. Does everybody get so nervous!? I can barley sleep! I'm nervous to do CPR for the first time (among other things)... I do not want to panic and freeze up! When does the anxiety go away? Also, how can I stand out as a student? This semester I'll be at the school and hospital and not just the college.. I want to really stand out from the others!.. Any tips would be appreciated..
