    Anjann posted a topic in General Nursing

  2. New pre-nursing student "need advice"

    Anjann replied to kcmo06's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I just finished school too. We were always told to read ahead before class, but most of us never did. I found recording lectures to be useful until they banned it at our school for 'ethical...

  3. For Fun: Spiral Notebooks or Binders?

    Anjann replied to Elizabeth Hanes's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Take it from a nursing student about to graduate. Get in the habit now of using the 3 ring binders because all of your info will come from massive amounts of printed powerpoint presentations (30-40)...

  4. Does anyone else feel like...

    Anjann replied to allthingsbright's topic in General Nursing

    Just hang in there! :) Alot of students ( I would say the majority) go through it, and it's all designed to see who wants it bad enough. We had people dropping like flies! Believe me, if I had any...

    Anjann replied to Anjann's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hi there, thanks for the info. I have actually started the process for VCU/MCV. Henrico wants me to work 7p to 7a. I was hoping to get a position with a bit more flexibility. I've only been...

    Anjann replied to carebear_21's topic in Virginia Nursing

    For NVCC I believe it is A&P 1 & 2, Human Growth & Development through the Lifespan, chemistry, psychology, ethics, and Microbiology. It is all listed on the NVCC nursing department...

  9. Nova in Manassas Virginia

    Anjann replied to amber_n_schultz's topic in Virginia Nursing

    That is correct, the classes are only held at the springfield medical campus and the 2 year wait might be how long it takes to get the pre-req's done. I go to Marymount, but my friend goes to NVCC...

  12. Lidocaine prior to IV start?

    Anjann replied to WVUturtle514's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Shouldn't it be left up to the patient to decide as long as it isn't an emergency? After all, it IS their arm being stuck....why shouldn't the patient be able to choose? I know I really appreciated...

    Anjann replied to MistyDawnRN06's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congrats! I'm taking mine in August after graduation and have heard many different opinions on how to prepare; or if it is something you can really "study" for at all since it measures everything...

  14. IV meds that crystallize when mixed??

    Anjann replied to Anjann's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Thanks! I think she was just trying to scare us because she stopped asking after awhile,and no student ever had an incompatibility. You were right about the hep locks and central lines, but we...

  15. PLEASE help ASAP--need estimates for living expenses..

    Anjann replied to Peachy720's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I would factor a minimum of $2,000/month. 1300 for housing and utilities if living alone, and 700 for you. If you share a place, you could probably get away with 1000/month rent and utilities and...

    Anjann replied to Niiccoollaa's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I am a student there now. Yes they are incredibly competitive and expensive. As you can see by my name, the program at Marymount is no joke. Be prepared for the hardest struggle of your life. But...

  17. Vet tech calling herself RN

    Anjann replied to Nightcrawler's topic in General Nursing

    There IS such a thing as a veterinary RN. And even Vet RN OR assistants. It is not a title used widely in the U.S. The only VET RN Bachelor Degrees I have seen come from Australian Universities, but...

  18. 77% Rule

    Anjann replied to Sunshine Sweetheart's topic in General Students

    We have a 78% rule.... but it's for the final grade, not the final exam. My guess is since Finals are comprehensive, they figure if you don't get a 77 you are not ready to move on to the next level....

  19. Received an "F" for a "B"!

    Anjann posted a topic in General Nursing

    If anyone out there can offer me some advice, I'd be so grateful. I am in an accelerated second degree AAS program at a University in VA which I will not name. I and 3 other students are currently...

  20. What are the item(s) you need most for nursing school?

    Anjann replied to rn2be2006's topic in General Students

    Hi there, From my experience, the best things that you can get to make your life easier are the following: For clinical, get a cheap watch with a seconds hand that you won't mind tossing if it breaks....
