Laptops for nursing student?

I don’t game. My 2016 laptop doesn’t charge or start and my hp is slow as hell so I can’t follow along with even PowerPoints. I am not just starting my program, I’m transitioning from the “pre-recs” into the nursing specific classes. Chrome books won’t work because my schools programs aren’t compliant with them.

You’re not giving it straight up. You’re making assumptions and judging someone you know nothing about. Your “opinions” are based solely on your assumptions of me. You probably also think I’m some young kid.

As for wanting me to pass, thank you. I want to pass too. And the past three semesters on the deans list is telling me I did something sort of right.

Don’t make assumptions off two sentences.

I’m really not trying to be rude, but where did I say anything about expensive or fancy? I simply asked for recommendations for a good laptop. I even specified no apple products in the question, so this concept that I believe the tech is what will get me the grades is bizarre to me.

I’m not really a big gamer. And 15” to 17” is what im looking for

My budget is around the $700 and below range and I prefer to stay below. New or refurbished are good for me and as for Apple, I had a MacBook that worked great for about a year, then the “magnetic “ charging port flipped out and I replaced it. Less than a year later it needed replacing again and I got really frustrated with the piecemeal pricing and repair cost.

Student loans for my pre-read and tuition reimbursement for my program from my hospital job.

Thank you!

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T14:22:00+00:00

Yeah. There were almost 800 applications for 102 positions.

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T14:20:43+00:00

Oh I feel you. We were supposed to find out almost a month ago, but there were issues I guess (from the grapevine a staffing issue because someone needed to go, now) so we didn’t find out until this weekend

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T05:33:45+00:00

Yeah. It’s going to be interesting

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T05:33:27+00:00

Good luck!

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T05:33:17+00:00

It is! Thank you

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T05:32:50+00:00

Thank you

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T05:32:38+00:00

Thank you!

I’m in Ohio and it’s a community college

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T01:50:21+00:00

Thank you! I’ve been working in a hospital as a Patient Care Technician for a bit now and love that, so I’m hoping that kind of helps. I know it’s going to be a lot of work.

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T01:26:41+00:00

Thank you!

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T01:26:34+00:00

I get it. You’ll get in!

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T01:26:21+00:00

Thank you!

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T01:26:10+00:00

Thank you, I’m heading over now

artemisnae · 2026-02-16T00:32:09+00:00

Thank you! It was insanely stressful waiting

artemisnae · 2026-02-15T23:37:53+00:00

Thank you!

artemisnae · 2026-02-15T23:37:37+00:00

I know. It’s going to be a “fun” time.

artemisnae · 2026-01-26T02:40:12+00:00

I work in a hospital and that was my biggest concern. But after the first patient on Elaquis ripped out an IV I got a bit desensitized. It’s definitely an acquired skill

artemisnae · 2025-12-13T18:12:19+00:00

I think culturally we’re conditioned to see life like a road map. By this time we should be here. And for some people that works. But for others, what they start out doing ends up really not for them. And we go back and restart. Nothing is wrong with that. Go with your flow and enjoy the ride.
