1. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

   Jmb002 replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

   I still have to take micro before I start the second year of the program, so I will be taking it next summer quarter when I won't have any nursing classes going on.

2. Official nursing student fall 2011 stand up!!!

   Jmb002 replied to adorable42181's topic in General Students

   I start nursing school September 7! GPA last quarter was 4.0, but other than A&P 2 the classes were super easy, and I am sure that will not last in nursing school. LOL! I scored 89.4% on the Teas (version 4). Congrats to all the new nursing s...

3. Teas test. how to prepare?

   Jmb002 replied to sweettiff4prez's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I checked out the ATI book from my college's library and reviewed that. The one thing I found invaluable was the sticky thread on the TEAS test here on AN. I went through each posting and took notes on the things people talked about. I then looked...

   Jmb002 replied to joshd's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I took the TEAS (version 4) last October and got an 89.4%. What I did to study for the exam was go through the thread here on All Nurses and look for things other people said to study that I had no idea (mainly science stuff including cloud formatio...

   Jmb002 replied to aNerd's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am taking Spanish for the healthcare worker, Public Speaking, and Pharmacology all online this summer. I only have micro to take before nursing school starts, but decided with all of my 4 kiddos sporting events during the summer I will have to cra...

   Jmb002 replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Haven't gotten grades yet as semester ends in 1 1/2 weeks, but I am holding all A's in Anatomy and Physiology 2, Nutrition, and Composition 2. Lets hope I can keep them. I am pretty sure I will be okay as I have grades in the high 90s in all 3 clas...

7. Why do you want to be a nurse?

   Jmb002 replied to CNAinNeb's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Like others said, I think what you wrote was really good (possibly omitting the part about why you finished with a Speech Therapy degree). I think your story is unique and very inspiring. Good luck to you. I have always loved the healthcare field (...

   Jmb002 replied to Noel1221's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Congrats NurturingSoul! Good luck! I am still waiting to hear from my school, but I am not holding out a lot of hope for this go around. I don't have A&P (extra credit points for admission), so that probably will come back to bite me. I am tak...

10. Low GPA :(

    Jmb002 replied to drowning486's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think it totally depends on the program. In my area different schools do things differently. One school I looked at just added people to a wait list and you got in when there was an opening (LPN program has a 3 year wait list and RN program has a...

    Jmb002 replied to coffeelover10's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I have not been where you are (I just applied for the first time and won't find anything out until the end of next month), but just wanted to say I feel for you! Sounds like you have a great attitude and are working hard. Keep up the hard work and ...

12. Math/TEAS test

    Jmb002 replied to Callie Martinez's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I took the TEAS IV and the majority of the math wasn't very difficult just time consuming. The only time I almost ran out of time in the TEAS test was the math portion. I had 1 minute to spare at the end, because it is all done by hand w/ no calcul...

14. study guide for TEAS???

    Jmb002 replied to Spercy55's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I went to the library at my college and checked out the TEAS study guide for version 4. I was able to keep it for a month and used it to study. I also purchased the practice tests on ATI's website, which gave me a whole other set of questions to st...

    I haven't taken Biology since high school and was able to test out of it for college and I haven't taken Nutrition yet, but I have taken Human Growth and Psych. Both of those classes were fairly easy. I just took Human Growth last quarter on line a...
