    phoenoryker replied to MissRis13's topic in General Students

    phoenoryker replied to BruiserQueen's topic in General Students

    I am truly sorry for your loss. I have to give advice because I lost my mom to breast cancer when I was 13 and my father a few years ago. My father was in the hospital for a week before he died. He...

  4. Is this college worth the price?

    phoenoryker replied to Onmyway14's topic in General Students

    One more thing to consider, loans make it possible for people who could have not gone to college long ago, to go to college and educate themselves. I guess you could stress about the financials, but...

  5. Is this college worth the price?

    phoenoryker replied to Onmyway14's topic in General Students

    My opinion, do not be afraid to invest money in yourself. And, if that program is well respected in your area, by all means invest in yourself. Who cares about you and your future more than you....

    phoenoryker replied to NurseGirl525's topic in General Students

    Here's the problem I am running into... In my program, I have to keep a minimum of 84 to pass. That's fine, but a 90 is still a B...I plan on completing a DNP when this is over...but if I keep...

    phoenoryker replied to Cassyb's topic in General Students

    The first thing you are going to have to do, and I'm talking five minutes ago, is take down the pic of you, or whoever that is in a bra. What is going on this world, did I miss a meeting or a memo...

  12. Dilemma...do I need my CNA license for nursing school?

    phoenoryker replied to itiswell's topic in General Students

    Check into program... You have a bachelors... Don't get another bachelors, that's purely sillyness. Do an entry level MSN. And don't listen to the negative stuff about that. Nursing is behind where...

  13. If someone is caught plagiarizing, should they be failed on the spot or get a zero

    phoenoryker replied to Little_Bear2013's topic in General Students

    I'm not saying that at all... I do not cheat, however, if it came down to self preservation, I'm gonna go with cheat and deal with the consequences if caught. Fortunately for me, I am an extremely...

    phoenoryker replied to NurseGirl525's topic in General Students

    phoenoryker replied to RubySlippers:)'s topic in General Students

    Malenurse69...the work load/material isn't hard, but you should no that looking at things through a nursing perspective is more demanding than treating pathogenicity... It is easier to treat the...
