   Hello! She's definitely one of the tougher teachers, but it's not that bad if you understand exactly what she wants from you. I know that sounds stupid, like you should be a mind reader or something, but it's true. As far as the reading, it does hel...

   Level 1 books are good reference books, but in all honestly the only book that I opened on a regular basis was for basic concepts. I'm not in the majority though, a lot of people did use their books. Try to get an older edition though...they're all t...

   I definitely agree...all that they tell you about saying goodbye to your family and all that stuff isn't true. I still go out and still have fun while holding down pretty much a full time job. Relax and have fun with it.

   I agree, definitely start reading the book ahead of time. Especially the Fundamentals of Nursing book. The other two classes arent that bad reading wise, but I think we had to read like close to 30 chapters for the first test in Basics. I would offer...

   Umm lol she is kinda on the scary side, but in a good way? If that makes any sense. She's a good teacher, she definitely explains anything and everything that you'll need to know. I like her... Where are you for validation?

    I have Dr. Skuka. She's pretty good as well, I like her. GLN4RN, the HESI gave you 4 hours to take it. It might be A1 lol I'm not sure I know that its the same test either way I just get the name mixed up. Four hours seems like a short time, but I h...

    No problem! haha I get this on my phone so this is what I do instead of work. Yeah it is a competitive program definitely, but you have to take into account that I believe this is the first year that they used the test so not everyone did as well as ...

    Hey! The HESI A1 really was not all that bad. The hardest parts for me were the science portions, but I also did not take A&P when I took the test. I am only now taking A&P. Honestly for those three subjects I would just review basically the...

    Hey Isabella! Yeah we had validations this week, I failed a simple one because of nerves and something really simple, but we got to do it immediately the next day so no harm was done. Now I know I need to calm down before validations. I'm only worri...
