    happyinmyheart posted a topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Hello all!! I love AllNurses, and I'm constantly on here reading and reading because I enjoy learning about all the different areas of nursing. However, one area that I have read very little about is...

  2. Nursing school is not a back up plan!

    happyinmyheart posted a topic in General Students

    So I have to get this out and rant. I know that other peoples' lives are none of my business, but this just drives me insane!! There is this one young lady trying to get into the nursing program at a...

    happyinmyheart replied to futurenurseas5's topic in School, College Programs

    I can't apply for this externship until next year, but good luck to those who applied! I looked over the externship online and it looks like a dream come true [emoji7] It's insane that they take about...

  7. HS student in need of advice!

  9. HS student in need of advice!

    happyinmyheart replied to futurenurse168's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello! I might be able to answer some of your questions but not all of them. I was admitted out of high school to a "direct admit" program. It's at a four year public university. I spent the first...

  10. 1/9: What I learned this week - Worst. Vagina. EVER.

    happyinmyheart replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    I learned that an adult tonsilectomy is really rough. Like hydrocodone still doesn't take the pain away. And that losing 10 pounds in a week is possible if you only eat jello. BAH. Thank goodness...

  14. So overwhelmed!

    happyinmyheart replied to happyinmyheart's topic in General Students

    I'm the same way! I've always been the one to do all the readings. But this is insane. My professors all claim to use the book and the power points. But I guess we'll see how true that

  15. So overwhelmed!

    happyinmyheart replied to happyinmyheart's topic in General Students

    That's what many people say. I'm scared I'll struggle with the volume and the content,

  16. So overwhelmed!

    happyinmyheart replied to happyinmyheart's topic in General Students

    That's what I've been doing too! I've filled out my planner with color coding as much as I can. I am a bit of a control freak, so not being able to map out absolutely everything kills me...

  17. Anyone else a planner nerd?

    happyinmyheart replied to AshBuggin's topic in General Students

    I LOVE planners! In the past I've used Plum Paper and Lily Pulitzer. I would love to try Erin Condren someday, and I'm using Personalized-Planner this summer. Currently I just have a Blue Sky Planner...

  19. Rasmussen nursing program

    happyinmyheart replied to Queeenp45's topic in General Students

    It can affect future job prospects. Many hospitals/nursing homes/ect will only let you work for them if the school you attended was state AND nationally accredited. It also could impact you if you...

  20. Anatomy and Physiology grades this semester.

    happyinmyheart replied to .Olive.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some schools are more competitive than others. I know a school as well where a 4.0 still might not get you into the program, many applicants have 4.0s.Often times they will use tie breaker factors...

  21. Not Naturally Smart

    happyinmyheart posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm feeling kind of down today because I think I got a B on my first Anatomy & Physiology exam. I've already been accepted to the nursing program, but I'm still just so mad at myself for not...

  24. Anatomy and Physiology grades this semester.

    happyinmyheart replied to .Olive.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I should also add... I probably studied 3-4 hours a night (minimum) and even more the week before exams. I fought hard for my A, although it may have come easier to others. Don't compare yourself....

  25. Anatomy and Physiology grades this semester.

    happyinmyheart replied to .Olive.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also just want to note that every school's Anatomy and Physiology class varies vastly in difficulty. Sure, it's probably "difficult" at all schools. But I'm sure it still varies. A friend of mine...
