1. CNA certification while in ADN program

   aquizzle replied to JackiRN's topic in Student Assist

   i think if you're a nursing student who has passed their first set of clinicals, you're eligible to work as a CNA. check with your state board of nursing to see if you can take the certification exam and get certified that way.

3. TEAS EXAM

   aquizzle replied to ladyoj69's topic in Pre-Nursing

   LOL! Nightmares about the TEAS! OMGoodness! LOL! Glad you feel more comfortable about it though. Was yours on a scantron too? So sorry that you were unable to finish. How many questions did you make it through in the math section? Maybe your s...

4. TEAS EXAM

   aquizzle replied to ladyoj69's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I agree with Kelli. I would use McGraw for science only and the ATI book for other stuff. But if you just get the online assessment and focus on studying the parts you got wrong, you can google the topics and find elementary explanations. And do a...

6. RN to BSN for RN's with non-nursing bachelor's degree vs accelerated BSN for non-RN's

   aquizzle replied to RN CHPN's topic in Online Learning

   If you already have a BS in another field, and have so many years of RN experience, you could also go directly into an MSN program. Would you consider being an advanced practice nurse? Just throwing another option out there.

   Thanks!:)

8. 2 yr ADN versus MSN

   aquizzle replied to Womanonajourney1983's topic in General Students

   Yes that's what i'm thinking with the ADN too, but a lot of the direct entry programs let you sit for the NCLEX after about a year of intense full-time coursework, so you can begin working a little sooner than the ADN if you pass. Then as you work, ...

10. 2 yr ADN versus MSN

    aquizzle replied to Womanonajourney1983's topic in General Students

    I'm trying to make that same decision too. I have a B.S. in chemistry but can't afford the Accelerated BSN programs and I'm not sure I can afford the direct entry msn programs either. If I go the ADN route, there are schools in my area that allow an...

11. Direct Entry Masters programs in Boston/Mass.

    aquizzle replied to Pegasus121's topic in Post Graduate

    These are all good schools and if you can afford it, I think the Direct Entry is a better option for you - especially if you have a good GPA. Some of them require the GRE and really focus on that score so you really have to do well to make yourself ...

    Thanks Mimi07! My test was version 4.0. I bougt the 3.0/4.0 Online Assessment. You basically take the same test twice, but knowing the answers to those questions gives you a good knowledge base for the exam. My test breakdown was: Reading 40 ?'s /...

15. ADN versus Second Degree BSN with non-nursing degree

    aquizzle replied to future123's topic in General Nursing

    ADN is definitely an option for you. Like others have said, meet with the counselors at the CC you'd like to attend and see what you're chances are. Also, there are some programs that even let RN's with a BS in another field apply to get an MSN, so i...
