haha thank you
My classes are ridiculous. The readings are the worst I think. There is just so much to read, and you need to read it before class. Nursing tests are hard.. they give you all correct answers, but one is the best. So even if you answered "b" and that is technically correct, "d" might be a better answer, so you're wrong.
Communication is my one class not a nursing class/requirement. It's not too hard, just boring and time-consuming .. blah
Microbiology is boring but really hard (maybe just my Prof.). Her lectures drone, her powerpoints make zero sense. Lab sucks too.
I'm really bad with microscopes though so that probably doesn't help hahaha.
Human Development .. oh what to say. It's my least favorite, but only because of my professor. He hardly ever shows up, but when he does he just rambles. Makes no correlations to the book so it's like self-teaching.. with 50 page chapters. *headache*.
My Intro to Nsg class is good. Lots of reading, but interesting. That's the exam I have in 11 hours (eeeeeeek).
Health Assessment is just what it sounds like, assessing patients. We move by systems, and the reading totally sucks. It goes into background of the A&P of each system, then explains how to assess. It's a TON of memorization.
Nursing Lab is pretty cool. We have partners and just practice what we're learning.. vitals, ear/eye/nose assessments, bed baths (well we don't give them really hah), things like that.
Clinical is getting better. The first few weeks we just met at the school and talked in our groups. Then we did orientation at the hospital, toured etc. My first day I wanted to run and hide in the bathroom even though we were partnered up. It was very scary but I did it! And last week was better. So not too bad yet haha.
Hope you're enjoying your classes & Good Luck! I wish I did CNA training when I was in high school. In MA if you have X #of clinical hours as a nursing student, you can sit for the test, so I might do that this summer.
Ah well back I go to studying!
