   Anyone heard about letters going out yet? They are closed on Fridays so I guess today is the latest they could have gone out!

3. Shadowing NP's

   Alwystdnt86 replied to rj_gunner's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Not sure how helpful this is but I have had an opportunity to meet several NP's and PA's by volunteer work. I applied last year at a hospital and got placed in the Heart ICU. I'm constantly around RN's, doctors and all sorts of medical staff. Some da...

4. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

   Alwystdnt86 replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you. I've always had and wanted to work during school. I'll admit, it had been difficult not to be envious of those who complain about how they are going to study all night and your are sitting over there wondering if you'll even have an opport...

5. JCC ADN Program 2015 NC

   Alwystdnt86 replied to Alwystdnt86's topic in School Programs

   No, I haven't. I'm thinking I didn't make it because they changed the timing on the courses where they had to be 5 years or newer. I did get accepted into SCC and that was my backup plan. I've emailed and called but about a week ago, they hadn't to...

6. Dealing with self doubt

   Alwystdnt86 replied to Supermommy_4's topic in General Students

   I agree. It would be concerning if you were not worried. I know it is definitely manageable. I'd put a lot of time into making schedules and chore lists and making sure my husband and family could know how and where to help out at once you get into s...

7. Any nursing assistants???

   Alwystdnt86 replied to FutureNurse305's topic in CNA/MA

   I'm in NC and passed both on the first time. I went where my peers before me suggested and my classmates and I lucked out with a really laid back instructor. The written was pretty straight forward although I think one girl had failed it for her seco...

   Alwystdnt86 posted a topic in School Programs

   I have a question regarding points for Johnston Community College (JCC). I think a couple of years ago, the points breakdown sheet was listed on the website for students to evaluate themselves. However, I've done everything I can think of to find the...

10. Testing Tomorrow?

    Alwystdnt86 replied to Fetzmommy's topic in TEAS

    Just took mine last week. Just pace yourself and read carefully. Little things like greatest to least vs. least to greatest can trip you up. Know things like the relationship between kinetic and potential energy and subject verb agreement. But most o...

    Alwystdnt86 replied to sspin's topic in North Carolina

    I took my TEAS V today. I was so nervous that I kept forgetting things I needed to get into the exam. I scored 86.7% overall, 97th percentile for the program. I'm hoping this makes me competitive enough to have a fighting chance! So now begins the lo...

    Alwystdnt86 replied to sspin's topic in North Carolina

    I am applying. All I have left is to take my TEAS V. This crazy weather has interfered with my original testing date so they have extended the makeup days into March. I'm freaking out! I'm trying to take advantage of the extra week to study but it ma...

14. Get the Bsn or leave nursing?

    Alwystdnt86 replied to smartnurse1982's topic in ADN/BSN

    I've dealt with this same dilemma since I got out of college over 5 years ago. I originally wanted to become a pharmacist, then saw how much they are on the phone with insurance providers and Dr's offices and changed my mind. I instead graduated with...
