   I like it but it's really tough. It's totally different than just memorizing A&P. You definitely have to do the readings each week.

   I'm not sure what the lowest was..I know several people who got a mid 70's score on the Kaplan and got in. I never heard what the average was. I never took any classes at GTC before I got accepted so that's not a factor at all.

   Our status and major changed on banner within about a week of the last person taking the Kaplan last year. I think we got emails a few days later saying we were accepted. They're pretty fast making the decision. Good luck to you all!

   There will be an orientation day in August and you will get a lot more info. I don't think we got our book list until then. Some of the seniors will be there to answer questions, and you will order your tshirts for lab that day also.

   Once you get accepted there will be a deadline for everyone to send back a letter of intent. Once that deadline passes they email out the packet with everything that is required. It includes all the immunization/titers, CPR certification, background ...

   I love how someone who's not even in the same state as we are thinks that they know anything about the school. Gwinnett Tech's nursing school is accredited, the school is in the university system of Georgia, and all of the courses transfer to any oth...

   I studied the Kaplan practice guide for the reading and math parts. I agree that the ones on the actual test were easier than the practice book, but I figured it would make me more prepared. I felt like the math was pretty much exactly like the study...

    I used my A&P notes and book more than anything. The science is all A&P, unlike the TEAS and some of the other tests.

    It takes 5 semesters to complete but you actually only take classes 4 semesters. You go Fall and Spring then get the summer off, then go Fall and Spring of the second year and graduate.

    The program lasts for 5 semesters, but you only actually take classes for 4. They don't do classes in the summer.

    curlyQ-nurse2B replied to NeoNatMom's topic in Georgia

    The math is basic algebra, very similar to what they show in all the Kaplan or teas study guides. The English portion is pretty much like they show in the study guide also. There's not really any way to study for that portion. The science part is all...

    The first semester we had class on Tuesdays and lab on either Wednesday or Thursday(whichever day you don't have clinical, you have lab). It's 3 days a week.
