   Mochachild replied to MrsMig's topic in LPN/LVN

   Took my boards on 08.23.11 and received license on 08.25.11 from the Texas Board of Nursing. Hallelujah! :bow:Long road...with juggling VN and BSN pre-reqs concurrently. Trying to find work is another issue; however, if I don't have anything else, I ...

4. Fall 2012

   Mochachild replied to cristyk85's topic in Texas

   @cristyk85 Personally, I would not take two sciences + labs in one semester...that would be overkill. Try registering for a science per semester with a liberal arts course- something that won't require too much of your time. It's all about balance. I...

6. Need advice from any university of Houston-Victoria second degree BSN students

   Mochachild replied to carrie380's topic in Texas

   Thank you for clarifying, aret21. Hmmm. I am not trying to "flame" this program; however, I would be remiss if not to post what I do know: (a) The TBON is ultra conservative. There aren't too many things that they would put up with. If, by chance,...

   Hello, all! We need to catch up! Glad to see that this thread is jumpin'! Just finished the summer session- wicked, wicked, WICKED! Studying for boards + studying for summer courses= deadly combination! Too embarrassed to even talk about my grades......

8. Need advice from any university of Houston-Victoria second degree BSN students

   Mochachild replied to carrie380's topic in Texas

   UH-V is a new program, so the jury is still out on that one. If the trend continues, the program may be subjected to probation or worse- the loss of approval. In order to sit for the NCLEX-RN, you must have graduated from an approved institution/pr...

9. Need advice from any university of Houston-Victoria second degree BSN students

   Mochachild replied to carrie380's topic in Texas

   Hello, carrie380! I think that's doable. You can figure out what you need to make by dividing the total number of credits by the total number of hrs. This school doesn't have a minimum TEAS V score, but try to attain at least the average percentage-...

    It's held at the Central campus and has the same criteria as the Traditional/Day program. Because personal info is banned on this site, I can't give out specifics. Contact the Nursing Department for details.

    Mochachild replied to Mochachild's topic in Texas (UTA)

    @tejas03 I ended up with a B in Pharm...and I'm good with that! I received that email on 7.21.11 from E.F. (for those of us currently at UTA, we all know who this is), and it was some sort of "status" email. It also indicated that CON hopes to send...

12. LVN programs at night in houston area

    Mochachild replied to Rachelle87's topic in Texas

    Sorry, my friend...there aren't any. You would be hard-pressed to find any in the US for that matter. The BON requires a set amount of contact hrs that must be adhered to by the institution as a requirement for approval. In order to sit for the NCLE...

13. I hate being a tech. will I hate being a nurse too?

    Mochachild replied to K nurse-one-day's topic in General Nursing

    Ahhh...yes. Your feelings are justifiable and warranted. You are not bitter or disgrunted; just simply HUMAN and need a BREAK! I do empathize with you as I have been there, done that and continue to do it! I will not reiterate what's already been st...

    @tejas03 and Libra1018 The both of you ROCK! Surely, there's more love on this board! @tejas03 I can't wait to be finished either. This semester has licked my butt for real, but I still endure. We shall see. As for pharm, I had this class last sem...
