I am in my second week of A&P 1, an accelerated 4 week course, 5 hours a day m-f. I was very nervous about it because everyone says how hard it is but I am not finding it difficult at all. I feel so much better. I am scheduled to go into A&P ...

Being a cna is different than being a nurse, so I think I get what you mean. I am a mom with 3 kids, 2,6 and 8. It is hard. I think you should consider moving in with your mom so you can quit your job or at least cut back. It will all pay off in the ...
Are new grads getting hired in south FL (west palm beach in particular)? My school's student services claims a 100% placement rate right now for nurse grads. Just wonder if that is accurate.

Also, as I hinted to before, my local cc has a reputation for trying to flunk people out, making students cry and clinicals and so on. Their attrition rate in the nursing program in ridiculous. Like 50 people start 15 finish. Not a big fan of those o...

I believe everything is subjective. Some people struggled with prereqs, others breezed thru. Some had to take the TEAS/Net more than once while some aced it. What is easy for some is challenging to others. I have to agree with Thesquire, students wh...

I wondered about this as well. I think it has to do with the fact the private universities are for profit so they try to do everything they can to keep you in school and help you pass so they get their $$. State schools and CC arent as concerned with...

I believe we ARE answering the question by saying that private universities are NOT always easier to get in. Even if the wait list is shorter you may not meet the requirements. For example in my area the CC will accept you if you have a 2.5 gpa or hi...

I just read alot of posts that seem to imply that. This one just seemed to have that undertone as well. I just want people to understand that people chose different programs for lots of different reasons. Some private colleges do just as well or bett...

I have to disagree with this. I am attending a private university nursing program and thier standards are much higher than the local cc. The waiting list is shorter for this reason and the higher cost (of course). It bothers me how many people assum...

I was not talking about content, I was talking about specific questions and answers. I was fine with giving advice like know your elements or review the hydrologic cycle, that is fine. What I dont think is ok is saying there was a question that said....
I am amazed at the amount of people asking for questions and answers from the TEAS. Does anyone else think this is CHEATING? I spent alot of time studying and I am offended by people trying to take the lazy way out. I got a good score and I am proud ...
I am sorry to say this but as posted in other threads, giving questions and answers is CHEATING. If you can not pass without cheating then you might want to cosider another profession. The purpose of the TEAS is to weed out the people who wont be abl...
