1. Roane State nursing 2016 applicants anyone??

   yikesy replied to Gittzy20's topic in Tennessee

   Yes, you should be able to tell them you changed your mind. I'm sure many other students are in the same boat as you with waiting. Good luck!

2. Roane State nursing 2016 applicants anyone??

   yikesy replied to Gittzy20's topic in Tennessee

   I think there were about 10 men in the program when it originally started. It's about half now. When you register for classes you have the choice to sign up for which campus you'd like but it's also based on how many spaces are available so make su...

3. Roane State nursing 2016 applicants anyone??

   yikesy replied to Gittzy20's topic in Tennessee

   Hi! I'm finishing up the last semester of the nursing program. Hallelujah! I believe we started with under 100 students in our program and have lost several along the way. Yes, it's a tough program and you really have to study, study, study....bu...

4. Lincoln Memorial University

   yikesy replied to ksf1010's topic in School Programs

   I took my pre-reqs at Roane State and had a great experience. I applied to their nursing program in January after hearing many great things firsthand from nurses who graduated from there. I won't start until Fall though so I can't give you any dir...

5. A&P & Microbio at the same time...omg

   yikesy replied to smcki008's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I took both last Fall while working full time and was able to get A's although it was very tough. However, I'm glad I stuck through it and finished them. I literally spent almost all of my free time studying and had to try different studying styles...

6. Who else is waiting for Fall 2014 acceptance?

   yikesy replied to nwayne1012's topic in Pre-Nursing

   yikesy replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing

   AP II - A (lab & lecture) Micro - A (lab & lecture) I had no life for a semester & it was not easy with working full time, but hard work does pay off ?. Congrats to everyone!

9. Testing anxiety

   yikesy replied to studentbear's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have the same issue with pre-test anxiety. I try to take 30-60 minutes before the test to just relax and not think about the test. I've found that going over my notes right before the test makes me start to over think everything and get confused a...

10. How do you stay motivated..??

    yikesy replied to MyOwnBlueSky's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I have a bathroom mirror and fridge covered with motivational sign and pics that I can see every day. It really helps me. Pinterest has tons of motivational quotes you can print & cut out to put in places you'll see them often. Mini breaks bet...

11. A&P II with Micro...has anyone done it??

    yikesy replied to NeoNurse2Be's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yes, it's very possible! I'm taking both classes this semester while working full time. I only need to complete these last 2 courses for my pre-reqs and was hesitant to take both but its worked out well so far. A&P II has actually been easier ...

12. A & P flashcards

    yikesy replied to ElizabethH736's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Writing out my own flashcards helps me greatly too! I also re-word some of the terms so that I'lll understand them easier when reviewing. I bought the Netter's flashcards and haven't really used them. Most of my instructors so far have provided sl...

13. 4.0 Challenge!

    yikesy replied to Technicolourhobo's topic in Pre-Nursing

    A&P II with lab and Microbiology with lab, then I'll be done with pre-reqs. :-) I accept the challenge. Best of luck to everyone this semester!

    yikesy replied to destrier's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Me too! A&P II and Microbiology this semester, then applying to the program.

15. Statistics online

    yikesy replied to Jenjer003's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm taking Stats right now in a classroom and think I would've struggled taking it online. Having our instructor walk us through the problems vs. reading the chapters on my own is much easier, at least for me. Although a good instructor makes a wor...
