  1. How far is your commute to clinicals?

    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...

  3. HIPAA/confidentiality during an Outbreak

    Username invalid replied to Nurse2b Fun's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    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...

  6. HESI vs. TEAS

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

    Hey, that looks pretty great to me! Good

  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 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...

  9. 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...

  10. 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...

  11. 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...

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

    Poop. Thanks guys. I needed a reality check, I

  13. Orientation day + first weeks+ smoking cessation meltdown

    Username invalid posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    SUMMARY SO YOU CAN SKIP THE READING: Severe, recent Chantix side effects have made me lose my ability to be happy and motivated. I'm irrationally fearful all the time. I'm just ranting, I don't need...

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

    I. Love. This. Site. Thank you

  15. Orientation day + first weeks+ smoking cessation meltdown

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

    Thanks! Iwill do what you say and use it as a learning experience. Prior to this, I felt that I knew enough about depression (and, therefor, somehow, all mental health issues) from my own past...

  16. Orientation day + first weeks+ smoking cessation meltdown

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

    Argh. I can't edit for typos. Dang. Sorry

  17. Dosage calculation Help!

    Username invalid replied to Calhoungirl24's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thank you KatieMI for working these out. I'm also in nursing school & have been going through my dosage calculation textbook and practicing. My book has me studying formulas, but Katie's logical...

  18. Anyone Else Having Nursing School Orientation This Week?

    Username invalid replied to Shookclays's topic in General Students

    Jumping in a bit late. I had orientation on Friday & classes start Tuesday. In November, we were told to study a dosage calculation book front-to-back and know it before we start the program....

  19. Criminal Background and Becoming a Nurse

    Username invalid replied to dnielson3852's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Yeah, this is a question that you need real answers to. Just guessing it could seriously harm you. I recommend that you don't pay the school a penny until you resolve your issue with the

  20. How many times were you rejected before getting into nursing program?

    Username invalid replied to gp14's topic in General Students

    I applied to 3. 1 rejected me (ADN) and 2 selected me (ADN, BSN). Rejection was due to incomplete prereqs, btw! I wonder if these answers would be more helpful if more details were included, such as:...

  21. Help!!!I don't know what to do next

    Username invalid replied to porterkate1219's topic in General Students

    I'm mainly jumping in to say I'm sorry to OP. I know lots of people with heavy student loans. At least you're not alone, I guess? I've seen a post on here from a guy with a bachelor's degree in one...

  23. Spring 2017 Chat

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

    So many people taking both Micro and A&P in the same semester! Good for you

  24. Did I get in based on a quota?

    Username invalid replied to LibaSkelova's topic in General Students

    I think I get why you're asking. Knowing the answer helps paint a picture about the culture/values/priorities of the college. I'm not sure how to find out, beyond looking in your student handbook- but...

  25. Professor forgot to grade 8 assignments!

    Username invalid replied to yajaira21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You've received some good advice. First, I don't understand why you're willing to wait on a teacher who has already failed to help you. Second, what if this "someone in admissions" is wrong? You...
