  1. Ceil blue Littmann Classic III stethoscope

    direw0lf replied to Sunshinexoxo1991's topic in General Students

    You can always get a stethoscope sleeve! (Or is that considered a reservoir for germs?) Edit

  2. Can they do this?

    direw0lf replied to jkadel's topic in General Students

    I guess I can't shake that it speaks for her character. But if I pretend that doesn't exist that it's just about policy. The problem is that a school took 6 months to determine 3 failures. Questions...

  3. Guitar elective

    direw0lf replied to Palamino2019's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was in the same predicament. It was recommended I didn't take piano which was good advice but I took piano and am glad I did. It's one hour a week and I think it helps me relax and helps me think....

  5. Can they do this?

    direw0lf replied to jkadel's topic in General Students

    How do you figure? The OP hoped she'd go unnoticed and knew the policy. How will she carry this over into the nursing field? Would you want a nurse who would hope that no one catches her doing...

  6. Can they do this?

    direw0lf replied to jkadel's topic in General Students

    If you made a mistake as a nurse, and it wasn't caught until 6 months later, would you still be accountable or the hospital for not catching you sooner? I have had a ton on my mind too and so has...

  9. what do you say to friends who want to copy

    direw0lf posted a topic in General Students

    What do you say when a friend and classmate asks to see your answers or papers? My mom called me a pushover and maybe. One girl, also my friend as in hanging out outside of classes, asked to see my 5...

  10. POLL ---Can a teacher give a group grade, but YOU a different grade from the group?

    direw0lf replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My teacher has let us know that we may be given different grades. We all have peer evaluations to hand in for our group. IMO...I think if you were late 10 minutes and did work when you got there, the...

  11. I have 3 months to prepare for nursing school. What is the best way to prepare?

    direw0lf replied to Bibliophage's topic in General Students

  12. Severe doubts about being a nursing major

    direw0lf replied to laura_mini's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hold up. Your fears are all normal that I bet every nursing student or prenursing student has had. What's going wrong is the degree of your fears and anxiety obviously. But take each fear and they're...

  13. Is A&P 2 more difficult than A&P 1?

    direw0lf replied to Shawn91111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well for me it was all about the teacher. For A&P I I had a first time teacher who read us the power points word for word. I asked a gazillion questions though or she'd have really stuck with just...

  14. Getting a C in Anatomy :(

    direw0lf replied to Upward_Bound's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is it going to matter after this semester whether the teacher liked you or not? It won't. Would have been nice, for any needed letters of recommendation, but hopefully you work on making a good...

  15. Low energy/sadness during free time/breaks?

    direw0lf replied to chris21sn's topic in General Students

    Would be a good idea to go for a walk or some other outdoor activity so you keep your endorphins up maybe? My breaks feel pretty far in between lol..when I get them they feel nice but I do understand...

  16. Should I make a stink about this?

    direw0lf replied to Zooey72's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's how all of my teachers open ended questions have been...I mean what more would you have wanted short of giving you the answer? I'm serious. .how do you think she should have asked the question...

  17. PH and the mitocondria

    direw0lf replied to Zooey72's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My first thought was no. I'm going to ask someone who's a chem genius and get back to this though. Here's some more thoughts though: What is the pH in the mitochondrial matrix and why? | Student...

    direw0lf replied to Kinda Flustered's topic in General Students

  19. How to apply to nursing school

    direw0lf replied to daniela.sosa96's topic in General Students

    I'm in a university in nj ..it was the closest to me. But I went to a community college first to pull up grades. I just felt like you were stressing yourself when I read your first post. I guess...

  20. How to apply to nursing school

    direw0lf replied to daniela.sosa96's topic in General Students

    Clear your mind of those thoughts like "I want to drop everything." If you want to be a nurse and are that passionate for that goal then you have to step back and figure some things out: 1. Are you...

    direw0lf replied to michelegie's topic in General Students

    direw0lf replied to tbird88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    direw0lf replied to akcw1981's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was going to choose an allied health profession. Either medical scientist or sonographer.. especially pediatric or neuro. It wasn't what I really wanted to do though. With all due respect why would...

    direw0lf replied to brittanyr7412's topic in General Students

    I was one of those not good high school students. I can't even say C average more like C-. I barely graduated. I went to a CC got straight A's and was desired by all the schools after that. It really...
