    Purple_roses replied to koko_xoxo's topic in General Students

    I really would suggest that you step away from the flashcards actually. But that's just me! My grades improved once I got rid of those time-suckers. Now I take notes in lecture, go home and read only...

    Purple_roses replied to citygirlnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Purple_roses replied to cracklingkraken's topic in General Nursing

    I was on spring break this past week, so I learned that I have a new favorite IPA and that my cousin will always be my sister and best friend. If only she lived closer! Spring break also gave me a...

  7. "Smart" students make bad nurses?

    Purple_roses replied to joseyjo's topic in General Nursing

    I bet nursing school would go a lot more smoothly if students stopped comparing their grades and skills with one another. Do what you're supposed to do. Be safe. Ask questions if you don't know...

  10. "Smart" students make bad nurses?

    Purple_roses replied to joseyjo's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely a generalization. It's probably important to remember that being a B or C student in lecture is also good. I mean come on...a B is a 93 for crying out loud! Having between an 80-93 in...

    Purple_roses replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    My grandma died during surgery because of complications from COPD. They were trying to remove cancer. Risks vs benefits basically. Does her death mean we should stop removing cancer from COPD...

    Purple_roses replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    It's been proven that he falsified information. Why would he need to do that if he really thought he was on to something? He is a man who was stripped of his license...of course he's going to continue...

  15. HIPAA Violation as a student

    Report. And I would also say delete yourself from the Facebook page. They are NOTHING but

  16. Jahi is still on 'life support'?!

    Purple_roses replied to Julius Seizure's topic in General Nursing

    It's blunt. This child's soul has not been on this earth for 2 years. Her corpse is being manipulated. Blunt words for a shocking

  17. Clipping nails at nurse's station

    Purple_roses replied to BillieP's topic in General Nursing

    Poop is grosser than a toenail. The difference? Nurses have to deal with poop, but they don't have to deal with coworkers' clippings at the nurses'

  18. Weird/ Dumb Nursing School Rules

    Purple_roses replied to Randy RN ASN's topic in General Students

    If they're truly worried about students looking provocative, they would NOT have an all white uniform. I will never understand the all white uniforms. ETA: I would have a very serious issue with a...

    Purple_roses replied to Magsulfate's topic in General Nursing

    This! I have learned more in 3 days of med/surg clinical than in hours and hours worth of lecture! Bringing your drug guide and books and having to look things up before you do them and then actually...

  23. What's up with all the 'failed NCLEX' posts?

    Purple_roses replied to Magsulfate's topic in General Nursing

    I'm young and naive and not a nurse yet, and what I'm going to say may sound young, naive, and non-nursey, but here goes. I think NCLEX-style testing is a potential problem. "Critical thinking" is...

  24. What helps you stay awake?

    Purple_roses replied to SFnursetobe12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually let myself sleep when I'm tired. My problem has been that I don't feel tired until 1 or 2! I've been getting less than 4 hours of sleep some nights. So if my body wants to fall asleep...
