  1. Waiting for fall 2014 acceptance.. anyone else

    Hmm, well, if the first college requires an 80%, I doubt the likelihood of being accepted into that program. Did the other college not give a date when they said they would be sending out...

    Congratulations on getting your letter! I was so excited when I got my congratulatory email this spring after the semester ended!! I'm so excited to start actual nursing classes in my University's...
  3. Would this be smart?

    My classes start next semester (Fall '14), and I've already bought my Pharm book and several course review books. But, my classes start this upcoming semester. If you're not going to be taking your...

    Congratulations on your A's, your graduation and your acceptance into the nursing program at your college! I'm not sure if you were asking for others' grades or just putting yours, but: Sociology: A...
  5. What Do You Eat?

    What do you eat to get your through a long day of school/clinical? I always try to eat breakfast. A green smoothie or an egg with a piece of toast. I want to try to stay away from coffee/carbonated...
  6. Our program requires all nursing students to have a Hand-Held Device for clinicals. They specified that iPhones could be used but...can you really see on those very well? I love my phone for...
  7. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    Yes, it was made clear to us of the additional expenses when going into the program. I haven't signed any agreement yet (but our orientation is coming up here in July, so I'm sure that's when we'll do...
  8. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    Thanks! It's like..Skyscape? Or something. I don't have to worry about that for a few months! (There's so much to buy!! My poor bank account.) So you would definitely recommend an
  9. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    Yup. I can't really answer that for ya. But, it's the program's requirement so I'll comply. :) We're just learning to adapt to an increasingly technical world. I think it'll be great to have...
  10. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    To be honest, I don't know. But, the devices are our personal property and at all times are personal messaging systems to be turned off as well as photo capacity to protect patients. I doubt they...

    Hey! Good luck on your interview! I will definitely be keeping that in mind! Thank you so
  12. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    Interesting ideas! Maybe I should go to Best Buy and check some of their stuff out..Sizes, compatibility and such. Thanks for the options. You're right about the ipad mini. I wish it were a bit...
  13. Summer Employment for Nursing Student, No CNA

    Thanks for the input! They don't require any
  14. Hand Held Device Requirement for Clinical

    I get where you're coming from. I think it's also a bit of an inconvenience for those who may not be able to afford the HHD. But, healthcare is changing and I guess they want us to be up to date. I'm...
  15. Summer Employment for Nursing Student, No CNA

    I think I did too. But I wasn't sure if it was part of their program or not. :) Hey! You're a Hoosier
  16. Oh my gosh!!! I laughed so hard!! *wipes tears off face* I am mature..I swear...but
  17. Reasonable Fall schedule?

    If you want it, you'll do it! Those classes don't seem to terribly demanding. At least you only have 1 BIO class. Maybe you could wait for the CNA position until a later date to see how you're feeling...
  18. Rent or Buy A&P Texts?

    This past semester, as I finished my pre-reqs and took my last A/P final, I thought I'd just take my (bought) textbook back to the bookstore and try to sell it back for some money. But, I forgot and...

  20. Is anyone worried?

    It's always scary and worrisome to look ahead and think about all of the if's. But, honestly, you don't know how the job market will be when you graduate. There may suddenly be a lack of nurses...or...
  21. RN and Surgical Technician?

    (I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question) This may sound strange, but has anyone heard of a Registered Nurse getting a Surgical Tech certification? I only ask because I believe I...
  22. NCLEX Question? READ THIS!

    Ditto.
  23. NCLEX Question? READ THIS!

    I wasn't attacking your post (in fact, my response was more directed at the post above mine). I'm just trying to be encouraging to those who are newer and have questions. By saying "it's annoying" to...
  24. RN and Surgical Technician?

    (This question might have better luck here than in the General Nursing Student forum.) This may sound strange, but has anyone heard of a Registered Nurse getting a Surgical Tech certification? I...
  25. NCLEX Question? READ THIS!

    Some people like more up-to-date responses. You don't know if they haven't looked up answers before. Also, you may think that their question had been answered MILLIONS of times, but you don't know...
