About hufflebinks

I am a mom to 4 wonderful children ages 10, 7, 4, and 2. I have been out of school for about 15 years and have wanted to go back for a while now. I'm finally doing it! I want to be an RN and I can't wait to be in school for that!

    Esme, thank you soooooo so much for the input. It's truly invaluable. very good point about LPNs. I'm not certain our budget is unlimited. I will ask my prof. This project is one of those all semester long things. It'll be due sometime in mid-t...
  2. Build Your Own Hospital Unit project (help?)

    Moonchild, yes, we have freedom to do non-profit or stand alone ER or whatever. It's a little overwhelming not having written guidelines to at least have some sort of framework to start with! I like your non-profit idea and also the LVNs and PCTs.
  3. Build Your Own Hospital Unit project (help?)

    Hahahahaah! Those are somel things I hadn't even thought about, november and science!! Esme, to be honest we also have to create our own budget. Our professor hasn't given us anywhere to start from so we feel a little lost. We have to decide what kin...

    I know how you feel. I hate not knowing what to plan for. I hadn't heard that about orientation. So there's something new for me. Haha. I am watching my mail like a hawk now too. Now that it's June. Watch, they won't send them till June 30th!

  10. how long did you study for the TEAS

    Just to update: I took the TEAS V on November 18th and got an 83 overall! I only had the ATI book I got off Amazon, studied for about two weeks solid, focused mainly on math because it's been 15 years since I was in school. I wish I had studied mor...

    naushk, I am not 100% certain on the answer to your question. All I know is when I attended the ER meeting recently, the counselor there told me that just having taken College Algebra shows that I am eligible to be in a college level math course and ...
  13. HCC Spring 2012-Houston Community College

    I don't really know for sure, but it was my impression that you do the fingerprinting and background check when you get accepted into the ADN program. Invitation to take Pharm is just one step before that one. Because acceptance into the ADN program...

    Does anyone know how quickly (or slowly!) we get our TEAS results? Is this something we are given as we are leaving the testing site, or does it take more time for the grade to be calculated?
