  1. Make yourself THINK like a nurse

    mississippikid posted a topic in Study Tips for Students's Share Tips

    I prepare myself the night before lecture by reviewing A&P & terminology. During lecture I don't write down what the instructor says word for word. I write down brief notes & questions to...

    Thank you! I read the NCSBN site up and down! Definitely made me more confident going into the exam. It was nothing like I expected but I'm glad I put in the time and effort to prepare myself the best...

  5. How fast did you land a job?

    mississippikid replied to johndough's topic in General Students

    Several of my classmates had accepted jobs before graduation, which had me discouraged because I had already put in applications to multiple facilities.. I graduated on a Thursday evening, on Friday I...

  6. Should I? Why not!?!

    mississippikid replied to Dreamer05's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't get to do work study, but I did apply for it. My school was small and didn't have a lot of openings plus I got a good bit of financial help so it was tough for me to get in. I'm 26 (24 when I...

  9. heart & kidneys question

    mississippikid replied to emileeg's topic in General Students

    Is this a homework question? I see it's your first post.. Important concept, and I'm not the best at explaining things unfortunately.. The heart pumps blood through the body, right? Then that blood...

  10. Nursing school too hard on purpose?

    mississippikid replied to fangirl's topic in General Students

    Nursing school is hard for a reason, actually many reasons, but I would never say that it is "too hard". You have to do the work, play by the rules, and deal with it to the best of your ability. They...

  11. I'm in my program, second year but did not take one prerequisite? What should I do?

    mississippikid replied to beachlover1989's topic in General Students

    I wonder how in the world you got into nursing school WITHOUT A&P. I'm about to finish up my second semester of nursing and was required to have A&P I and II before even beginning the first...

  12. Cheaters.... What is our responsibility?

    mississippikid replied to PlayaChickRN's topic in General Students

    I say stay out of it. If they cheat now, and cheat in nursing school, they are screwed for NCLEX. Just do you and don't worry about anyone

  16. RN dreams gone for now

    mississippikid replied to Ms.futureRN's topic in General Students

    Most teach from PowerPoints to hit the high points of the topic, what they think is the most important information and you really have to fill in the blanks yourself. Do you have a Fundamentals...

  17. ADN Nursing school interview at Holmes Community College

    mississippikid replied to mississippi_lpn's topic in General Nursing

    They've only recently started doing the interviews.. I highly doubt they will use the same questions, and I don't want to risk getting in trouble for giving away too much information! I feel like they...

    mississippikid replied to mississippikid's topic in General Nursing

    From what I remember, the group comes in, sits down, and they talk to everybody for a while.. About the program and what they expect.. Then they give you some questions to answer in a narrative...

  22. Grades in Nursing School

    mississippikid replied to MariahO's topic in General Students

    Use as many different resources for NCLEX-style questions as you can. Books, apps, whatever you can get your hands on. I like the Fundamentals Success book, the Test Success book, and the NCLEX RN...
