    Very good, I am happy for you. You have been helpful to us on the forum, as others have as well, so it makes me feel good that you experienced closure (I FEEL DONE!). It sounds like you were glad to...

    NCLEX Before Graduation

    I don't think this will happen but you should talk to your school. Until you have completed transcripts in hand, and the nursing school alerts the BON that you have successfully completed the course...

    Yeah, I would like to
  4. Amanda112martin, I see you only have 3 posts on the forum. If you post more than 15 total you can have access to private messages. I would love to hear who the instructor is you are talking about....
  5. Like tokmon stated, you do get in a paper frame of mind. I hate papers, but have gotten pretty good. My problem is finding the time to sit and do it in the proper frame of mind. Don't be scared....
  6. Don't know if I deserve admiration... I just learned to sit and do those posts. I can sit and do 2 discussion responses in about 15 minutes, just do it. The initial DQ posts take me 2-3 hours which...
  7. I had to smile while reading your posts. I felt the same about the set up of the discussion questions. I had 3 classes so far that required 4 days participation not just the 3. I kind of got used...

    Uniform

    You should talk with the nursing department before you make a leap. This idea was shot down when I was in nursing school, there were three women that wanted to wear them. They didn't specify a...
  9. I finished this paper at the last minute because of some serious motivation issues (4, 12's and one 8 hr shift in one week really zapped me - Paycheck was nice though). All I did was follow the...
  10. Over half way through the halfway point here. Yep CLC's are not fun in the slightest but they are doable. Keep

    Thanks for all the advice on my current paper. I ended up just stating the recommendations produced from the study, some of the key points made, and the stated limitations of the study. I liked the...
  12. I hear what you are saying but I think that it does have value and merit although it isn't widely used. My use of Blah, Blah, Blah was not because of my distaste or problems with nursing diagnoses,...
  13. Of course the instructor might want more information but I was taught you do not need to provide it. Secondary to..... just provides a reason for the weakness and that isn't what the nursing...

    I failed out of Nursing School... Appealed and WON!!

    I believe you make valid points about NCLEX questions, but I believe that there are specific reasons why the question doesn't merely state "what does RACE stand for". At times we older (and wiser)...

    Yes, this does help. I have been burning through this assignment and am nearing the end. So in a Critical Appraisal when do you specifically talk about the research findings? Or do you? According...

    I failed out of Nursing School... Appealed and WON!!

    Love it as well!!! I am happy for you, glad you are done so you can help the rest of
  19. Yes I will share this info but only through a private message. It looks like you do not have enough forum posts to be able to utilize the private messaging. Go post around the forum and I will send...

    How hard is it?

    Determination of how hard nursing school is would be highly subjective. What I think is hard might be easy for you. I will tell you that it is busy, extremely busy, at times stressful, extremely...

    What would you do?

    And these people will be doctors? Apparently they have no respect for people... I would find another group to hang with but just after I spouted a witty retort. 200, 000 a year? Boy are they in for...
