  1. Dosage calculations or pharmacology first?

    That's interesting there is a dosage calculation class. My program doesn't have that but we have to pass a med math test each term (must make at least a 90% to pass) in order to stay in the program....
  2. West Coast University in Dallas,Texas

    I graduate this year. Some things I've noticed is that they go through faculty often. Some instructors are hit or miss and some teach classes that aren't even their area and some don't even teach you...
  3. I have a grade problem

    I'm sorry. This really does sound like it was personal. Since you already talked to her about it, your next move is to go up the chain of command. So talk to whoever is directly above her and see what...
  4. Hi Everyone, I'm starting nursing school in April. On this site, I've seen many of you complain about not being able to find work after having graduated. This scares me, especially since I live in...
  5. What's the funniest most unusual baby name?

    My initials were almost BMW but my dad didn't want me named after a car. Instead, I'm BTW. To add my own unusual names, my aunt told me years ago how some people named their daughters Ima Hooker...
  6. Iphone or Samsung Galaxy??

    I had an iphone 4 before I switched to my galaxy note 2. I started hating my iphone and at one point, I entertained the thought of not even having a phone. I love my galaxy so much more because I can...
  7. Kindergarten Teacher or RN?

    I considered becoming a kindergarten/preschool teacher vs. nursing, too. I guess the reason was because my kindergarten teacher made such a positive impression on me (I still remember her, some...
  8. I am an RN now!!!!

    Congratulations! I can't wait to pass my NCLEX and feel how you're feeling! I just started nursing school so I've got a little ways to
  9. When I took anatomy, one of my lab partners was 25 and he's going into his clinicals in August. He wasn't the oldest person in the class, either. There are many people that are so much older than you...
  10. How do you fellows study?

    http://zenhabits.net/ace-exams/ This is something I stumbled on yesterday. It may seem too good to be true, but the idea makes sense. Instead of memorizing stuff, think about it and make connections....
  11. Hey, Ya'll! (I used to hate, hate, HATE that word!! (I live in SoCal) I took Latin my senior year in HS and when conjugating, my teacher always had us say ya'll for 2nd person plural. It also grew on...
  12. Passed HESI A2 Yesterday-- My Experience

    @nurse2b Your inbox is full. No one can pm you until you delete some messages. But just go to YouTube and search "metric to us conversion formula" since I was on my YouTube phone app, it was the...
  13. Just took HESI A2

    Nope. Sometimes you have to come up with your own

  16. Accredited Nursing Schools

    I don't want to steer you in the wrong direction, but most likely they will become accredited. It's risky, of course. Personally, I'd transfer to a school that's already been accredited for at least 2...
  17. @TheCommuter Thank you for posting. I greatly appreciate it! Thank you to everyone else that posted, too. You've in a way calmed my fears and I'm confident that when I graduate, I'll somehow find a...
  18. Passed HESI A2 Yesterday-- My Experience

    If you study that book religiously, you'll do much better than just studying the HESI A2 Exam Review, 3rd Edition, no doubt. I flipped through the pages to familiarize myself with all the words, but I...
  19. You are correct, but it was sort of a general poll to just get a feel for how many people were able to become employed shortly after graduation. Thank you for taking the time to point that out to me,...
  20. Sorry about that. I thought it was understood I meant the current times (graduated no more than 8 years ago to the present). I don't care about 30 years ago because it doesn't affect me. I will change...
  21. Passed HESI A2 Yesterday-- My Experience

    It's only $4. Yeah, I'd say get it. While the exam is pretty basic, it's good to brush up especially with grammar rules if you're not too great with those. I mean, I found it to not be challenging,...
  22. Well how do you normally
  23. Healthcare is NOT a basic human right.

    Can't stand it when people think they deserve healthcare just because they have a pulse. It's a luxury. Indoor plumbing is a luxury, too, and you don't see plumbers doing that for free. If you want...
  24. They're not difficult. Simply knowing the conversion formula suffices.
  25. So I got 2 jobs...

    I'd say go with the day job. It pays more, it's a nice facility, and you don't have to mess up your sleep cycle. But don't let me decide your future! Flip a coin. When it's in the air, you'll know...
