  1. should i give transcripts from all schools??
    You must include all transcripts even the one from which you withdrew completely. People withdraw for various reasons that don't necessarily have to do with grades. So as long as your BS GPA is good...

  2. iPad Mini - A&P?
    I wouldn't say it makes the class easier. I don't think it's easy to take notes with anything except pen and paper. However, it's great to have when you study because you can store your...

  3. TEAS EXAM HELP!
    No. ATI is a company. TEAS is a test. ATI is the company that creates TEAS.

  4. Length of time TEAS Test scores valid...
    It depends on the school. I have seen schools where TEAS score is valid for only 1 year and others up to 5 years.

  5. TEAS test
    If you can't afford the ATI Guide, you definitely should make use of Quizlet (do a search there for teas v). The cards pretty much cover the major topics that you'll need to know straight from the...

  6. Klonopin ?
    You have a script and legitimate reason to be on that med. Your program can't deny you because of it.

  7. Enter your TEAS V Scores here!!
    Not really. 73 percentile means 73% of test takers score the same or below your score. (You can think of yourself as top 27% scorer.) If you want to deduce your chances, you need to know how many...

  8. Difficulty of Science Portion
    Overall, it wasn't that hard. There usually are a few questions that are unusually in depth or totally weird, but the other ones are pretty basic. I believe that if you did well in Bio 1, Chem 1,...

  11. Have I RUINED my chances at Nursing? :(
    Definitely talk to a counselor at school. Can you still drop this course? I think it's probably better that you drop it than getting an "F". Make sure you have your doctor write you a note in case...

  13. Is it worth the $39?
    I took one online practice test and thought it was worth it. My online test score was very close to my actual test score, and I thought the online test was about the same as, or maybe very slightly...

  14. A&P Question about the Atlas - C1
    The posterior arch makes it appear as if there is a protruding process when looked at sideways, but if you look at it at a different angle you'll see that the bone itself has no process.

  15. TEAS V Science
    This is awesome! wish I thought of that. I usually just memorize the first letters and drop off those that I don't need to memorize (G and S, because I knew their order from Micro). So my...

  16. If half the class failed the course, who's to blame?
    geez....40-45% is close to half the class and it's okay to say half the class in the context of an informal discussion forum. That kind of failure rate for a "business admin" writing course seems...

  18. Failing a Class
    I would talk to someone from your university's registrar office. My guess is that even if they let you transfer the course from community college, they might not replace it for GPA calculation. If...

  19. Score of 90 on TEAS V
    I only used the ATI Manual and I looked up everything that I didn't understand. I also took a total of 5 practice tests and I carefully reviewed questions that I got correct, but not 100% sure, and...

    Liberal arts courses don't necessarily improve your critical thinking skills. Critical thinking can only be improved over time with conscious effort (e.g. constantly being critical when reading...

  23. Do I need to retake Statistics?
    I took Managerial Statistics when I did my first degree, so I wonder if any of you with a similar background have had to retake statistics when applying for nursing programs. Do schools generally...

    Thanks! I agree with you guys. I took 5 practice tests (3 ATI & 2 McGraw-Hill) and ended up taking the actual earlier this week. I got a score very close to my practice scores.

  25. Which is harder A&P 1 or 2
    I thought A&P II was harder but MUCH more interesting. A&P I was mostly boring until the nervous system (that system failed a lot of people in my class). It also depends on the teacher. My A&P II...
