1. HEY, William Carey Nursing School (MS) Tradition Campus Folks!!!!

   SouthernNurse15 replied to zombieRN2019's topic in Mississippi

   I do not know how many usually apply. So far, the people I have come across that didn't get accepted was due to not meeting criteria (teas score). I am sure the advisor can give better information on this than I can. Good luck!

   You won't feel out of place. Usually about half of the class are going for second careers and have kids at home or kids grown up already.

   I am not sure if they weigh TEAS or gpa more. Trimesters are difficult but manageable if you stay on track...don't think you can slack off one week. I have heard of classes in the twenties, but last two have had about 12. Most of the professors are g...

4. Tattoos in Nursing School

   SouthernNurse15 replied to BBboy's topic in General Students

   Someone in my class has a forearm tatoo. He uses a sleeve that he pulls on to cover it (just a sleeve, not a full shirt). Maybe see if the school would accept that, since it could fully cover it without making you unbearably hot.

5. Buying my 1st stethoscope!

   Just got my Classic III this week. The clarity is unbelievable! I also paid the extra $10 or so dollars to have all hearts engrave my name on it.

8. What nursing specialty interests you the most for the future?

   SouthernNurse15 replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in General Students

   I am just starting out but thinking NICU. I have always worked with kids in previous careers. However, I am trying to keep an open mind.

   Hello! I have orientation and CPR in July and then start classes in August. So excited (and nervous)! Unfortunately, our scrubs and shoes are all white (ugh). Good luck to all of us!

12. Waitlist for Microbiology

    SouthernNurse15 replied to tbird88's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Go to class to see if the professor will let you in. Just realize they may not allow to let you in due to limited lab space. That happened to me first time I tried to get in A&P. plenty of room in lecture hall but none in lab. If you have to take...

13. Cheaters.... What is our responsibility?

    SouthernNurse15 replied to PlayaChickRN's topic in General Students

    I also have seen some blatant cheating. Every time there was a test in my biology class, one group of students would always go sit at the top of the lecture hall to help each other. Our instructor was confined to a wheelchair and partially deaf, so h...

14. When to take TEAS and where to find practice tests?

    SouthernNurse15 replied to Ready-Set-Go's topic in General Students

    Have you taken your pre-reqs recently? If no, then allow for more time to study. If yes, then it will not take along since it is more of a refresher. I spent two weeks studying, of which one week I had no school and studied full-time. As I went throu...

    SouthernNurse15 replied to Mp31495's topic in TEAS

    Definitely buy the ATI book. Attached to your scores, I think on the third page, they give you a breakdown on things to study based on what you missed. This will also reference where to find it in the ATI book. As I went through the book, I made a li...
