  1. Nursing students and their bad behaviors >:(

    Purple_roses replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Students

    Actually, complaining, venting, (whatever you want to call it), can be psychologically healthy. It certainly isn't damaging. We aren't naming names or schools. We're just talking through our nursing...

    Purple_roses replied to zacofalltrades's topic in General Nursing

    People are leaving class early d/t being uncomfortable. They aren't learning if they aren't there. I never signed anything stating that I had to take my clothes off to be in nursing school. There was...

    Purple_roses replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Students

    The people in my class only did this for the instructor who had just started teaching at our particular nursing school. They don't dare try any of these shenanigans with the experienced instructors....

  12. Nursing students and their bad behaviors >:(

    Purple_roses replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Students

    I can relate to a lot of these. Some of my classmates are constantly trying to push back projects and test dates. How about we all just buck up and study the stuff when we were originally supposed to?...

  18. Can you sit for the LPN exam during an ASN program?

    Purple_roses replied to Pm2013's topic in General Nursing

    I can do this, but I decided against it. I would need to take a summer capstone this summer, and then I'd be able to sit for the NCLEX-PN, meaning I would probably start working as an LPN right when...

    Purple_roses replied to silhouettedreams's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    If you're worried about it, maybe just don't wear anything too flashy to the interview. After you get the job, you can slowly introduce your fun style, and if anyone has a problem with it they'll tell...

    Purple_roses replied to Bridgid Joseph's topic in General Nursing

    Did anyone else here do a quick Google search to figure out which generation they were? I didn't realize how big of a deal it was! Maybe it'll make my resume easier to edit for my first nursing job....
