   Username invalid replied to PnwRN84's topic in General Students

   10 miles & 15 minutes away, pop is between 300,000- 400,000. I would be appalled if my commute was over 30 minutes, and would rethink the school. Yech. Never want to live in a big

2. Nursing, Hurricanes, and Floods.

   Username invalid replied to CardiacDork's topic in General Nursing

   This is an interesting thread. Current events, history, you name it. Most importantly, it's Cardiac Dork's thread and terrible experience; he doesn't have to mention the whole world. Very few of us...

   I misread the question and voted no. I meant yes, tell the patient. But I'm still in nursing school, too...

4. This is so crazy - Do I Need All These Books?

   Username invalid replied to KaTStudentNurse's topic in General Students

   I skipped to the end without reading through everything -- but I bought most of my nursing books off Craigslist from nursing students that just had graduated. It was like robbery, these ladies were...

5. Student in nursing program on medication

   Username invalid replied to Jakita02's topic in Nurse Disabilities

   Sorry to divert your question, but did you get your school's approval yet? My nursing school doesn't allow controlled substance in students' systems during clincals. Maybe you'd be OK if you get a...

7. HESI vs. TEAS

   Username invalid replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Well, Saturday is here so I wonder if this is worth much for you. & I only have anecdotal information, making it of even less value. However, in my area, all the colleges that have BSN programs...

8. Anyone drop their BSN program for an ADN program?

   Username invalid replied to Username invalid's topic in General Students

   Everyone has been really helpful! Thank you! I'm staying put in the program until the end of the semester and I definitely won't switch to the ADN program. I talked to every one of my teachers and...

9. Anyone drop their BSN program for an ADN program?

   Username invalid replied to Username invalid's topic in General Students

   Sure. Of course. I want to learn the content in my classes, not just be smacked with information that I need more time work with. I've heard the analogy that learning in nursing school is like trying...

10. Anyone drop their BSN program for an ADN program?

    Username invalid replied to Username invalid's topic in General Students

    One more teenie-weenie bit of loser whining -- the patho & pharma classes that are in my program are both higher level classes now than they would be back at the good old community college. This...

12. Anyone drop their BSN program for an ADN program?

    Username invalid posted a topic in General Students

    OK, so right now I have an 86% in foundations and an 87% in assessment, but my clinical class and patho are kicking my rear. I can't imagine two years of this. I miss my husband, my cat, my sleep, and...

14. Orientation day + first weeks+ smoking cessation meltdown

    Username invalid replied to Username invalid's topic in Nursing Student Assistance
