   I have to take the TEAS V soon and I scored an overall of 76% on the ATI online practice test I purchased. My school just requires that you score Proficient. Does anyone know what the percentage score cutoff for Proficient is? Is it based on each ind...

   Seaons's Greetings everyone! I was hoping to gain some insight on whether or not nursing is truly the right profession for me... To sum it up, I have started and stopped nursing school three times (twice with a BSN program and once with an ADN progra...

   Hi Sienna, Do you know if you can use an ipod touch or do you need an actual Palm for the software? I have Verizon and am eligible for a upgraded phone, but I was told you can't use a phone on patient floors so I am not sure if I should upgrade to a...

   I know I haven't heard anything yet either, I think the "Got AACC acceptance today!" was from earlier posts. My mailman probably thinks I am stalking him...

   Congratulations on almost being done with your first year! I have heard it is a tough school, but I am okay with that if it prepares me (as much as you can before you actually start working). The GPA cutoff seems like a good idea, but like most peopl...

    SiennaGreen Thanks for that update, I certainly hope they are feeling generous. Are you already a student at AACC? This is my first time applying here so I have no idea what to expect.

    Hi all Thought I would let you know that I called the nursing department at AACC today and was told that they would "most likely" be mailing out the decision letters for spring 2010 this Wednesday afternoon. So with that being the day before Thanksgi...
