  3. I don't see why you would think that you are not suitable for nursing because of this mistake. Well except that your nerves are probably friend and am ready to be done with school. We have all been...
  4. Since we are speaking of the capstone project, in previous posts people state that they put all their papers together and edit it for submission. Is this a paper or project that shows your growth...

    This is about the funniest thing I have read in a while! And totally describes what happened. I restated my questions and all of a sudden it was a great question and a opportunity for the instructor...

    Anatomy on Crack at my school

    Taking the better A&P classes wont get you more money, it will get you through nursing school. Studying 7 days a week isn't out of the ordinary. 15 hours over the class time for each class?...
  7. I really think you should look closely at your performance in school and clinicals. I may not understand fully, but the first time it was a nurse that was picking on you. The second time was a...

    Thanks PrismRN, I will remember to make sure how everything must be turned in. First deadline passed, I handed in the assignment (CLC Agreement) and no one stepped up to help put the information into...

    Grand Canyon RN-BSN

    Wow, thanks for all the input. I do find that all the comment about CLC projects will be true. My first assignment and I see all these attitudes displayed already. I do want to get a good grade,...
  10. Decision to cheat doesn't count as life happens..... Yep! People often get worked up by others actions and forget that it has nothing to do with their life/situation. The only way this would...

    Made my first "Nursing" connection

    This is the stuff that you should celebrate so that you can finish out your nursing school education on a high note. Congratulations and good job. It seems like a minor realization, but very...

    ADN vs. BSN

    Do a little research on recent posts here on AN. This is a common question and is asked and answered often. It really depends on your local job market. Will you be able to get a job as an ADN? In...

    First week of class almost completed, not too bad I think. I wanted to post some observations in hopes that people would give me their feedback. Overall I believe that staying ahead of the game is...

    Hostility

    Were we in the same class? Sounds like we were. Our class had 3 people like this. One person regularly dropped the F-bomb in class or in private conversations with staff if she didn't like something...

    Is this college worth the price?

    Out of my price range for sure. My ADN program cost me about 4,000.00 with financial aid and my BSN will cost me 12,000-14,000. No way would I pay 44,000.00 no matter the amount of clinical sites....

    Need Advice on Clinical Instructor

    Agree with the previous posters, this is a positive. I had a similar situation early in my nursing school experience but I did go to the instructor and ask why. She said she had watched me in early...

    What can you tell me about C. diff, thank you!

    I don't think that this is neurotic at all. I regularly scrub shoes in the garage and do not wear them in the house at all. In fact I do not wear scrubs that I wore throughout the day in the house....
  20. For my nursing program we had to sign a paper stating that we would not lift anything heavier than 40 pound. Stamina is something that you will develop over time, and exercise does help. There are...

    When looking at colleges (financial aid)

    Same here. It worked out to be 4 weeks after census. It prevented people from signing up for classes, getting their financial aid and then dropping classes. My financial aid office was very open...

    Microbiology : Lesser Evil

    Just a question, did you take biology in high school or college biology? I took college biology before I took Microbiology and felt like a majority of the classes were similar. The labs were...

    Is SNA office worth it?

    Keep in mind, this is just my opinion.... I have been told that it is great for a resume and I have heard many reasons why. After sitting through a couple of interviews for the position I hold now I...
