  1. Failed first pathophysiology exam

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    That's the problem is I can't find practice questions relevant to what I'm covering. I'd hate to take a test where the questions will talk about something 2 exams from now. Quizlet isn't very reliable...

  2. Failed first pathophysiology exam

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I spent a lot of time relearning some of the easy stuff in the beginning of some of the chapters that either my previous biology teachers didn't go over with us in class or were stuff that I had...

  3. Realizing how difficult nursing school is

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not even in nursing school and I already feel tired from reading my Patho book. We have to read ch. 2,4, 6, 10, and 11, and know 9 disease sections from the book. I don't know if I'm freaking out...

  4. Realizing how difficult nursing school is

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The problem with my instructor is that he's going to teach only up to the first exam. Then another instructor is going to teach us. The instructor I'm going to have up until tomorrow that I've had...

  5. Realizing how difficult nursing school is

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it largely depends on the instructor too, as I'm trying to recall how I studied for my bio classes. I think right after lecture, I would take a couple hours off and then go home and open up my...

  6. So you're an RN - you must be earning big!

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to _littlemissBSN's topic in General Nursing

    I think RNs make a lot of money. It's far more than anything I've ever made and I've never made more than maybe $10 hr for the past 10 years. If I was an RN right now making what they making either...

  8. Beldar: Starting Pathophys. Summer 2018

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello, I'm starting Pathophysiology this summer. I'm not in a program yet. This class is a pre-req prior to the program I'm applying for. Which to me is kind of weird, but at least it's not...

  9. Pre-nursing: How to answer NCLEX q's before RN school (or mastering them)

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello, all! I am a semester away from applying for nursing school, and I am concerned as to how I am going to be able to answer NCLEX style questions which I'm sure are on exams, yes or no? Does...

  10. Healthcare staffing agency

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone worked for a staffing agency as a cna, lpn, or nurse? I'm not looking for something permanent, but I don't have much options when it comes to experience. I'm looking into working for a...

  11. Healthcare staffing agency

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't been able to apply yet, but the last time I spoke with the staffing agency (which was around last July) they said they need at least 3-6 months of experience "then we'll talk". Well, just...

  12. Students cutting themselves

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Amethya's topic in School

    I've seen some scars and had a look on my face like "what the hell is wrong with you?" I blame parents. Parents are who kids, from the chute on up to 18, spend the most time with. No other adult. What...

  13. Thinking about getting a gun for safety

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to MotoRN34's topic in Home Health

    I think you carrying could place you in a bad area with justifiable interpretation. It could put you in a situation that could screw you over. When I was in the military, I was told that if I deploy...

  14. CNA experience

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in General Nursing

    How do CNAs get into jobs that like Med-surge? I applied for a position for night shift full time without experience and got denied today via email. The position did say "no experience required--some...

  15. UNLV SON Summer 2018

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to purpleplum33's topic in School, College Programs

    I guess they have below 88% overall. Maybe those people didn't know. I spoke to a lady over the phone. This website doesn't allow names to be shared so I could PM you who I spoke to but she said that...

  16. No alcohol. NONE

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Nursebry91's topic in Nurses Recovery

    One of the things I've learned in A&P is that the blood brain barrier that protects the brain and nerves is very impermeable. If you allow these things into your mind, you're only creating damage....

  17. UNLV SON Summer 2018

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to purpleplum33's topic in School, College Programs

    My session had maybe about 9-10 people. Prior to it, a lady that does the calculations had said so far 54 people have applied and some have below 88%. There is hope but I'm already making plans for...

  19. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    It's to pay off student

  20. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    Because if I can't get into nursing school, I'll work as a CNA. If I work as a CNA in a city where cost of living is high, I'm sure the wages will sort of compensate. Nurses make $150,000 over there,...

  21. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Lol being a millenial is the root of the student's problem? Generation X or any generation before millenial generation has a reputation of profiling young people as the root to their own problems....

  22. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    Ok, so I could work as a CNA or RN in San Fran, make good money, and be able to survive living in a white cargo van without the side windows? Like I'd be able to get away with doing that? I wonder if...

  23. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    I was thinking the same thing. But I wonder where in Texas OP is from. If they like San Fran so much and say that San Fran "caters to their beliefs" I think Austin is about close to San Fran as far as...

  24. San Francisco Living as an RN?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to didi22's topic in Nursing Career

    I forgot where I read it. This might have been from facebook. But someone said that San Fran is nothing but homeless and ****

  25. Fired Due to Not Being Able to Get to Work

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Studentworker's topic in General Nursing

    Some might find this hilarious, but if I were you I'd invest in a white, side-windowless cargo van where you can sleep (if you can) in the back and use that as your place and you can drive to your...
