About Scottishlaedy

After seven years in the marketing/communications field and nearing the end of my 20's, I'm returning to school to become a nurse. I'm excited to be able to have a career I'm passionate about, that I believe makes a real difference in the world, and will provide a good life for my daughter and me. Since I already have a bachelor's, I'm going to do OCCC's fast-track program (BADNAP), which just takes 10 months to complete...although every time I think about it I question my sanity.

    Thanks for the info! Do you remember if at the orientation they assign any reading or quizzes that have to be completed by the first day of class? I know other nursing students from other universities have said to expect that, but I wasn't sure if th...

    Thanks for all the insight! A few more questions for you, when you have time, I know one day a week we're in class and then once clinicals start they are two days a week. How do labs fit into the schedule? On the days that you weren't in class, labs ...

    Lizzabet, That's great that there are spots left! I'd for sure recommend that you plan to attend the orientation because, from what I've heard, generally several people drop out after hearing all the details.

    Lizzabet, they told me 4-6 weeks. :-( But, based on the threads on here from previous years, the emails have been sent out around Feb. 25. So fingers crossed it's sooner than later!

    Haymarie22, Last I heard, preference is given to people who've completed the prerequisite classes prior to applying. However, I'm not sure how it will work if you've completed the classes but not the bachelor's. You could talk with the nursing adviso...

    Jessicancox, you may have already taken the TEAS by now, but I just got a study guide from the Metropolitan Library System. It had two practice tests that were really helpful - they're all I studied and I got a good score.

    Truckinusa, I didn't get a question like that, that I recall. I took it last month and got a good score (sigh of relief!).
