Just started my first day of nursing school! Honestly, the fundamentals professor I have has really bad ratings on RMP. But she doesn't seem too bad...yet. I'm taking fundamentals, pharm, physical assessment, stats, and intro to theater. Still in th...
For most if not all of the older students in my class were pursuing nursing as a 2nd career. There's like only three other girls besides me that are under 21. Everyone else is in their late twenties to late thirties.

I didn't take the math placement test but I assume that you just need to know your basic algebra. You can go to Accuplacer Study Guides | Bergen Community College for more info. It took me one year to finish all my pre-reqs. Good luck!

I'm taking micro right now and it's not that bad. If you're good at memorization, then you should have no problem in getting an A. I study about a week in advance (from an exam) for about two hours each day and I currently have an A average. Also, ta...
I also used the Mometrix study guide and used quizlet for the science section. There's also a couple of free TEAS practice tests online such as Union Test Prep (Free Test Prep for the TEAS) & Teas Practice Test (TEAS Practice Test | Free ATI TEAS...

I only applied to my local community college's program (ADN) and got in with a 4.0 GPA & 80 on the TEAS. *EDIT: As to how many semesters, it took me two semesters to finish my pre-reqs.
