   Dharma21 replied to DZcarrie's topic in General Students

   Catch up on saving for a new house with a backyard for my son! Once we have a backyard (we live in a condo now), I will get him the puppy and playscape he's been asking for. Saving to take a two week vacation to the Gulf Coast of Florida, complete wi...

   Dharma21 replied to laski's topic in General Students

   Hello everyone! Well, I will be 43 next week and I am currently in Pharmacology and will begin clinical courses for an ADN in September. Hopefully, 18 months after that, I will be getting ready to take the NCLEX so that I can officially say I am an...

3. Schoolcraft College

   Dharma21 replied to rystle's topic in Michigan

   I too would recommend AP I & II, especially since often BIO 236 (the combined course) does not transfer to other schools. As for the TEAS, strategically, I would sign up to take it just as I was finishing/finished BIO 237 so that you can get on t...

4. Schoolcraft College

   Dharma21 replied to rystle's topic in Michigan

   Well, if you really want to be a nurse, and the spring semester starts in a few weeks, I would sign up for A&P1 and then pick a date to take the TEAS and sign up for it. Begin studying for the TEAS. A work hard at A&P1 as all that crammed int...

5. Medical Terminology class--useful?

   Dharma21 replied to sKris's topic in General Students

   I am starting an ADN program in September 2012 and I was worried about not having had a medical terminology course (mine doesn't require it either) especially since I have no previous medically related experience. The very first class we had to take...

6. Schoolcraft College

   Dharma21 replied to rystle's topic in Michigan

   The TEAS is a standardized test. You sign up (the dates fill up quickly), pay and take the test. There is a study guide (several actually) you can buy and Schoolcraft (as well as other schools) offer a TEAS test review class. Honestly, I had been out...

7. Schoolcraft College

   Dharma21 replied to rystle's topic in Michigan

   I don't really understand why everyone is hung up on the wait list at a community college? I started at Schoolcraft in May of 2009 and by the end of the semester in December 2009 had completed JUST the requirements necessary to get myself on the wait...

   Dharma21 replied to faythe's topic in Michigan

   Hi gstahl2012! I just noticed this today and I just sent you a creepy stalker friend request as well. I should however warn you that apparently I do not have enough posts to send and receive private messages on this thing as I have mostly been lurkin...

   Dharma21 replied to faythe's topic in Michigan

   Take the first half of AP and schedule your TEAS date immediately (the test dates fill up quickly). I started back to school in May of 2009, applied to Schoolcraft's ADN program in December of 2009 and got my letter a week later welcoming me to the F...

10. Question for Current Schoolcraft Nursing Students

    Dharma21 replied to kizeemimi's topic in Michigan

    I began taking prerequisites in May of 2009 at Schoolcraft. I submitted my paperwork the day grades posted in December of 2009 and got a letter a week later welcoming me to the fall class of 2013. I received a letter earlier this year indicating that...
