   GaGeek replied to SmYle4PeDs's topic in General Students

   Ditto what they said! I have two kids; 4 and 2.5. And my husband works on the railroad and is out of town a lot and has no schedule to speak of, so I can't rely on him to be around. So, like the guy...

2. Failing Pharmacology

   GaGeek replied to 2bRNatasha85's topic in General Students

   I haven't actually started Nursing School yet, so I haven't had a "human" pharmacology course, but I did take Pharmacology in Vet Tech school. It was a lot of memorization. Here's what helped me:...

3. I want to be a nurse but I am scared of blood!

   GaGeek replied to Renee982's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I know a guy in veterinary school who passed out the first time he ever shadowed at a veterinary clinic and watched a surgery. Look at him now! I also know plenty of people who are afraid of needles...

4. Bioterrorism/Microbiology

   GaGeek replied to acedit's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   You're definitely not crazy. I hope most of your classmates have enough common sense to recognize that she's gone off the deep end! I really cringe to think that she's molding the minds of future...

5. Bioterrorism/Microbiology

   GaGeek replied to acedit's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Wow. I would react the same way! Definitely send that link on to the Dean. It's disturbing to think that an educator is passing that information on AND using a website for reference that looks like...

6. Any other students who are mothers?

   GaGeek replied to goldenanchor's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I have two... a 2yo and a 3yo. Right now I'm working part time and taking 10 hours. I start my nursing program in January! I am a little bit nervous about time management at home; it's already...

7. I need help...

   GaGeek replied to Whitwilke's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   First of all, that's really rough. I'm so sorry that you've had to go through that. Also, do you have more than one school you could look at attending? Is the nursing program at the same school your...

9. A&P - Bones, Time... Need some Encouragement!

   GaGeek replied to phoenixnim's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Take a deep breath. You're doing well to put in so much effort. What's on your note cards? You don't have to answer that specifically. What helped me, especially for the skeletal system, was...

10. Science ADVICE! Where to begin.....

    GaGeek replied to Neuro_Eck's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, if you're reading physiology books for fun, I don't think you're going to have any issue at all with these classes. Also, if you are taking these classes at a community college, none of them...

11. Skull Help - AP 1

    GaGeek replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I drew it! You don't have to be an artist. But taking the time to draw the skull with the sutures and fissures and foramen really helped me to remember what I was looking at. Our library has full...

12. When do you usually finish your tests?

    GaGeek replied to bluesky94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Everybody tests differently. It's good that you know what works for you! Right now, I'm one of the first people out. That's with double checking, and I have the second highest grade in one class...

    GaGeek replied to newsingleDad's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    BSN - Bachelor of Science in Nursing :-) I don't think you need to be as worried about the pre-req's as you think you are. Most people find that with age and maturity, a lot of these classes come a...

    GaGeek replied to greatestsummerever's topic in General Students

    A few more years and you'll realize that people like this are everywhere. How do YOU feel about YOU? Don't worry so much about someone who's so wrapped up in other peoples business that he behaves...

    GaGeek replied to alynn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's so complicated! And I don't fully understand how it works. I'm sorry you're so close but not quite there. That's too
