  1. If It's Not one Thing It's Another, Just Need to Vent

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So I posted previously about not having a vehicle. We had to fill out an application today to do a clinical day at a certain site. I had open heart surgery 22 years ago, so I checked "heart problems"...

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

  5. I Don't Know What to DO

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Update: One of my classmates has agreed to let me ride to clinicals with her, and I'm going to help her out with gas. I also e-mailed all of my instructors, so they're aware of the

  6. I Don't Know What to DO

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    I don't know if/when I'll be able to get a vehicle, but my parents are trying to help me. I live right down the road from a hospital, so I'm hoping to get hired there once I graduate and then I could...

  7. I Don't Know What to DO

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Ridesharing is what I'm hoping to do. I haven't heard back from my classmates yet, but hopefully that works

  9. How to Deal With a Bad Clinical

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    A clinical for one of my classes this semester has basically been a disaster. We haven't given any meds, we haven't done any assessments...we haven't even been assigned a specific patient to take care...

  10. Classes that Just Bug You...

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    I am taking a class now that irks me to no end. We basically have a worksheet to do every week with about 15-20 questions on it. Not bad, right? Well, we are divided into groups, and each person in...

  11. Classes that Just Bug You...

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Yep, it's me! I had to make a new account (AlmostThere19) because I forgot my password to the missnursingstudent19 account but then found later. Sorry for the

  12. Tutoring...Desperate for help!

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    So I tutor a class that is lower in the nursing program than I am. We've had one meeting so far, and it didn't go quite as well as I'd hoped. The students were very quiet even when I tried prompting...

  13. Tutoring...Desperate for help!

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Today not one person showed up for the tutoring session. I spent hours and hours getting ready for it. Starting to wonder if this job is a waste of my

  14. How do you feel about B's?

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    In one of my classes, we've been having tests back to back for the past 6 weeks. I've made B's on most of them, and my class average is a B. Of course I'd rather have an A, but I know I study as much...

  15. Just Needing Some Encouragement I Guess

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    Nursing school is making me feel extremely drained lately. It's the constant fear that I'll make one wrong move and get kicked out of my program. The fear of failing an exam. The fear that I'm...

  16. Just Needing Some Encouragement I Guess

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Thanks for your kind response! The mistakes are usually little things like that I double-booked myself and had signed up for a service-learning project that is scheduled on a day I have clinical. I...

  17. Discouraged in Clinical

    missnursingstudent19 replied to AlmostThere19's topic in General Students

    Well this is a L&D/Postpartum/Nursery clinical rotation, so that might be why this clinical is different from the others. Hopefully that's what it

  18. Tutoring...Desperate for help!

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the advice everyone! For my next session, I'm going to try splitting them into groups of two. I'll have each group of two work on 3 questions that really require critical thinking and...

  19. CAB or ABC?

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    I have gone my entire nursing school career (over a year) thinking that in CPR you are supposed to prioritize airway, then circulation, the breathing (ABC). I got a couple of test questions wrong on...

  20. CAB or ABC?

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    I've taken 2 CPR classes now, and I can't believe I missed this! At least I know now. Thank you guys for clearing this up for

  21. Nursing School Frustrations

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    In my class, we have a test tomorrow on unit 3. Today we finished lecturing on unit 5. Does it bother anyone else when professors lecture way past what the next test will be about? I get that they are...

  22. My Opinion on Simulation Lab

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in General Students

    In the simulation lab, there are these one-way mirrors, and it's set up so that instructors are sitting in a room watching you through those mirrors, but you can't see them. Creepy much? It makes me...

  23. My Opinion on Simulation Lab

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    Yes, it was exactly like check offs! That was odd because we weren't told exactly what to expect. This wasn't intended to be a check off - they told us that it was ok to make mistakes because they...

  24. Most Cringeworthy Thing You Did in Nursing School

    missnursingstudent19 posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    Hey all! I'm a 2nd semester nursing student, and I tend to be pretty hard on myself. I want to be the "perfect" nurse, and it's hard for me to accept that I will never be the perfect nurse because...

    missnursingstudent19 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in Nursing Humor

    Well, just this Monday at my IV push validation, I got so nervous that I completely forgot to do the second saline flush. Luckily my instructor just said "And what did you forget to do?" and I...
