  1. Friends cheating.. what to do?

    CuriousMe replied to ajeanpants's topic in General Students

    Do keep this in mind, they're not your friends if they shared this information with you (what friend would put you in this kind of position?).....in fact, if you don't report what you know, you're not...

  2. accomodation suggestions needed for UWO

    CuriousMe replied to kirkiebhoy's topic in General Students

    I'd contact the school directly. University's often have housing options for non-traditional

  3. Putting diagnoses in priority order? Help!

    CuriousMe replied to LisaMarie82688's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    The trick with prioritizing nursing Dx's is to not base it on the medical dx, but by your assessment. So, while you can come up with 8 nursing dx's for PNA alone....what assessment data were you...

  4. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    Ok, so still not offended, just pointing out that the entire premise appears to be self-congratulatory. Not sure about the "negative energy"...the only energy I know of surrounding this is the one...

  5. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    Or, you could try and see that even if it wasn't your intention....that's how it appears to

  6. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    do you realize that everything you eat or drink is a "chemical" (including water) in the same way that coffee is a "chemical?" we are, at the most basic level, a big bag of chemicals. coffee isn't...

  7. i have no idea what im supposed to be doing

    CuriousMe replied to TinaRM's topic in General Students

    I was always busy during clinicals. Once my patient's needs were met, I'd either help another student out, or work with another nurse to do skills or pass meds on another patient. I agree with the...

  8. How long does it take u to read

    CuriousMe replied to Darkpk55's topic in General Students

    If I remember correctly, you're still in high school right? You have a lot of time to work with your special ed department to improve your reading

  9. I go to ITT-Tech...

    CuriousMe replied to TeamSteven01's topic in School, College Programs

    I bolded the one sentence you said that I agree with. This is a public board, and all may have their say (as long as it complies with the TOS).....with that in mind, I will continue to have my say...

  10. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    I guess I don't think that illegal drug use belongs in a thread about folks who use Red Bull. It really trivializes

  11. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    If they're using it legally, they're using it to help them focus because they have ADHD and don't focus well without it. Using it in this fashion is as much of a crutch as insulin is to a diabetic,...

  12. Anyone made it through Nsg school WITHOUT caffeine , Adderall, or Red Bull??

    CuriousMe replied to Trilldayz,RN BSN's topic in General Students

    Just a correction. Adderall is not a "pick me up" used to get through a night of studying like coffee or Red Bull. It is a prescribed medicine used in the treatment of ADHD or

  13. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    They're not considered free labor, because they don't replace a licensed nurse. No matter that the student nurse is doing some of the work of an RN (even if they're a senior and doing all of the work...

  14. Should I retake some not required pre-reqs...

    CuriousMe replied to KJackson2015's topic in General Students

    Would the point of retaking be to boost your overall GPA? Or are you thinking that you need better grades in those courses specifically will increase your chances? Honestly, each school looks at...

  15. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    The hospital could require it....it would be staff intensive to enforce (unlike with nursing students where all your information goes to the hospital via the school of nursing)....but they could...

  16. Should I retake some not required pre-reqs...

    CuriousMe replied to KJackson2015's topic in General Students

    But are the science classes required? I don't know what CHM 1045, BSC 2010 & BSC 2010L is....are they just Gen Chem and General

  17. Do not touch my stuff!

    CuriousMe replied to Poi Dog's topic in General Students

    I never needed a scientific study to teach me this.....I had

  18. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    yet you've never been able to tell me which laws the hospitals are required to follow. nursing students are not hospital employees, so labor laws don't apply to them. hospitals are not university's...

  19. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    Since nursing students are guests at hospitals, they don't fall under labor laws, and hospitals aren't schools, so educational laws don't apply....which laws exactly should folks cite? I'm curious as...

  20. I go to ITT-Tech...

    CuriousMe replied to TeamSteven01's topic in School, College Programs

    I read the post. You're using an article that discusses wealthy, prestigious schools as evidence that community colleges "make" money. The two have nothing to do with each other. Yes, a non-profit...

  21. 2 colors in hair as a new graduated during interviews

    CuriousMe replied to Michelle Nicole's topic in General Students

    I would try and look as conservative as possible for interviews. You have the rest of your life to try something new with your hair....the timing right now might not be

  22. I go to ITT-Tech...

    CuriousMe replied to TeamSteven01's topic in School, College Programs

    RN2064 are you seriously trying to compare Vanderbilt University, a huge and private, non-profit university that many consider to be on par with the Ivy League Universities, or Brown, or any of the...

  23. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    As has been mentioned ad nauseum on this board, school's can't require them but clinical sites can. Since it's impossible to pass nursing school without clinicals, proof of vaccination very well may...

  24. Should I get Varicella titer, MMR titer, Flu shot, Tdap shot in one day??

    CuriousMe replied to karenonp's topic in General Students

    As the previous poster mentioned, it's two blood tests and two shots. I see no reason to not do them at the same

  25. Awkward situation

    CuriousMe replied to Student7881's topic in General Students

    So texting your sister that you're annoyed because someone just bragged to you that they cheated and did well on a test that you didn't is trash talk? Really? It's not like she ran into the next...
