   Joanne1212 replied to varonte69's topic in General Students

   I'm attending a part time program and that's one of the only ways I've been able to manage getting through school. My husband has also worked very hard (and by this I mean, anywhere from leaving work early so I can make it to an exam, to taking a few...

2. New Nursing Student - Need advice on what to study over summer to prepare

   Joanne1212 replied to TerryOBerry's topic in General Students

   Enjoy your summer!! Learning medical terminology is always good. Another thing is dosage calculations. You may have a test first thing depending on your school. I honestly would not stress. You'll have plenty to stress about when school starts!

3. Nursing School on 2nd year probation?

   Joanne1212 replied to Oceanblu's topic in General Students

   Joanne1212 replied to megster871's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I have to agree with the recommendations to go to a specialty store and try some shoes on. I used to wear the leather Skechers go walk ones and one day they just started hurting and they hurt so badly that I injured the top of my foot and it hurt for...

7. Has anyone used this website

   Joanne1212 replied to MizMaverick's topic in Student Assist

   His videos are pretty much saving my life right now. I think it's crazy to try to discredit his videos because he failed out of nursing school. All of my professors are nurses and my patho one is a doctor; he opens his powerpoints and literally just ...
