  2. Dropout rates?

    I think our class started out with about 60 people or so, and I think we've lost about 25 or more along the way. Some flunk out, and then others have the types of problems that snlisa mentioned with...
  3. 2 science/lab classes in one semester?

  4. Do NLN exams really indicate how well one does on boards?

    We had to take Mosby too. Just last semester. You have to pass it at my school or you don't graduate. They give three chances to pass it though, so I don't think many people would flunk it three...

  8. APA Papers

    IMHO, APA style is a lot different than MLA. That's what screws me up all the time. I'm used to MLA, and find that to be the easiest, but seems like every little thing is different in APA....I will...

    A little off the subject, but I was just curious where you all got the information that guilt is not a motivating factor for treatment & rehabilitation. (This is not to say that I think saying...
  11. Can DUI keep you out of Nursing?

    Count yourself lucky that at least you are finding out now. There was a graduate nurse around here a couple of months ago that found out, after finishing all her years of schooling, that she would not...
  12. do I need CPR certification before starting clinicals?

    I could be wrong about this, but I am relatively certain that in the hospital setting anyone doing patient care (including nursing students) must be CPR certified. I do not believe that it's a school...
  13. opinions on chest pains

    I sure do empathize with you Robin. It's hard when someone you love has to go through things like this. My dad had a TIA back in November, and it just scared me to death. We (myself and siblings) kind...

  17. What Freaks You Out?

    Okay...I'm just a student, so I haven't yet been exposed to ALLLLLL of the really gross stuff, but I can say this: I can handle mucus, I can sometimes handle vomit, but I absolutely, positively lose...
  18. Did you worry in nursing school?

    I'm in the sixth semester of a BSN program, and hoping that I make it through the final two semesters of my schooling without going completely insane. I worry so much more about my own health than I...
  19. Who is responsible for error?

    As a nursing student I am not yet sure of all the legalities regarding malpractice responsibility. At a community hospital in my town, a 13 year old girl died recently from fluid overload. The...

    You can do it! I have the same problem and am in the 6th semester of my BSN program and at the top of my class. Don't be discouraged by others. You know what you are capable of doing. Maintain a...
  21. advice

    Hi there. I can think of several areas of nursing that probably don't have to see too much of the "gross" stuff. Community health nursing would be one area and possibly psychiatric nursing as well....
  22. PLEASE HELP NSG STUDENT-DOSAGE/CALC

    Hi there. Sounds like you might be freaking more from the pressure of the exam than from the actual math problems. Making simple conversions shouldn't be a problem for you. It's all very simple...
