   soyboy replied to ShyeoftheTiger's topic in California

   I agree this selection process is very frustrating. Good things come to those who wait. If you want it badly enough, you'll get it. Hang in there everyone and best of luck! See you in class...

3. Sac State Fall 2013 Applicants

   soyboy replied to wanisai's topic in California

   Hello Everyone- Does anybody on this forum know why the Accelerated Second Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ASBSN) program has been suspended? I was all set to send in my application (and $75) when I saw on the website that the Spring Cohort was "canc...

4. Just took TEAS V! What was YOUR scoreh

   soyboy replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in TEAS

   I took it last July and got 98% overall. 100% in Math, 100% in English and Language Usage, 98% in Science and 97% in Reading. It's all about practice. Take all the sample exams you can, and try to give yourself at least a few months to study. I only ...

5. Took the TEAS the second time....

   soyboy replied to avianale's topic in TEAS

   Have you taken the Practice Exams (both in the ATI study guide and the McGraw-Hill "5 Practice TEAS Exams")? They are very useful for giving you the "actual exam experience". My only thought is that maybe you are over-anxious during the exam (which i...

6. TEAS V score

   soyboy replied to sacnurse's topic in TEAS

   I got 98%, studied 2 weeks, and used the ATI Study Guide and Mc-Graw Hill's "5 Practice TEAS Exams". Both contained typos, so buyer beware. In the ATI Study Guide they stated "V=50" in the Roman Numerals section...Bonehead mistake for a publication p...

   soyboy replied to sacnurse's topic in TEAS

   Thanks Julliansmom2011, your anxiety will lessen each time you crack the study guide and get some studying in. Create a schedule for yourself and stick to it, it's amazing how much progress you can make in a few weeks or months if you dedicate even a...

9. Score of 90 on TEAS V

   soyboy replied to sacnurse's topic in TEAS

   Yes, my TEAS V was computer-based, and I feel it followed the practice test format pretty closely. It was a little different for me than what I'm used to (paper tests), but if you are comfortable with a computer you should have no problem. One thing ...

10. Score of 90 on TEAS V

    soyboy replied to sacnurse's topic in TEAS

    Hey sacnurse (is that Sacramento by chance???), I recently got 90+% on the TEAS V, and used the ATI Studyguide, along with the McGraw-Hill "5 Practice TEAS Exams". I studied for 2 weeks, and I think if you take all the practice exams in those two boo...

12. Montgomery college TEAS takers?

    soyboy replied to jvd90's topic in TEAS

    Hi JVD- My advice is to read the ATI study guide thoroughly, especially the Reading Comp section. It's all about understanding what they want (i.e. is this passage expository, technical, or persuasive?). Of all the sections, Reading is most subjectiv...

13. SAC STATE Spring 2013

    soyboy replied to smokeybear's topic in California

    I am looking at all options, including the ASBSN program at Sac State. What has everyone heard regarding the quality of that program? The cost (compared to community college programs) is a concern for me, but I don't mind paying for quality. Any insi...

    soyboy replied to kmleonard4's topic in California

    I have heard about Samuel Merritt, but don't know much about it. I am in Sacramento, so I will be applying to Sac State early next year. May I ask why you chose Samuel Merritt? Is it a pretty good program? Sac State's ABSN is 16 months and about $35k...
