  1. Hi everyone! Has anyone else here applied for Cypress Spring 2018? I put in my application on the Sept. 1 and submitted my documents as well. I should have 30 points so I'm hoping I have a good chance at getting in. The lady at the window said that t...
  2. Hi everyone! I'm starting my first semester of nursing school soon. I always wear my Fitbit Charge 2 on my wrist. It tracks my HR and steps. It is water resistant but not waterproof. So I am guessing I probably shouldn't have it on my wrist since I'l...

    I think maybe the payment plan was just deferring payment until you get your financial aid because when I called to place my order I asked about payment plans but they lady only said that she can defer payment for 30 days.

    Thank you! Just bought the Lippincott stuff. I chose the option to defer payment for 30 days (until financial aid kicks in).

    Hey guys, does anyone know if the Taylor Course Point Plus comes with the Fundamentals of Nursing e-book? I think it does, but if anyone has purchased it yet, can you verify? Thank you :)

    Koi Lindsey were $25. I'm not purchasing the suggested books for now. Maybe I will after I get my tax return.

    So I just purchased all of my uniforms, yay! I ended up going to the Scrub Shoppe in the Buena Park Mall. I ended up getting 2 Cherokee tops (style 2878) and 2 pairs of Koi Lindsey pants (LOVE them), and a Dickies Scrub jacket for just under $120. Th...

    I think it is the same price with the NSNA, I believe I paid $23 using the link from the NSNA site. As for the pants, I am having trouble finding non-see through white pants. I purchased some Cherokee brand cargo scrubs from Amazon, but they were to...

    Yeah, I'm hoping financial aid will help me out too! I can't afford to quit my job though, so I am hoping to be able to work 20 hours a week. I guess we shall see how that pans out!

    Yeah I think that would be a great idea!

    Have you guys purchased your books yet? I've been kinda lagging on that since they are so expensive. Did you purchase from where they recommended on the handout?
  12. When do nursing programs do drug tests?

    My school requires a 10-panel screen before we start the semester.
  13. Cypress College Spring 2018 Applicants

    Yes, I have 6 units as well. I think we add 193 later in the semster, at least that is what I jotted down in my notes from orientation. Also, I haven't gotten an email about family night.
  14. Just wondering if they take it into consideration when accepting students..or is it more about having your license and nursing school grades? I'm going to take my TEAS 6 in a couple of days to enter an ADN program. Eventually after I get my license I...

    The other packet is the student handbook. You'll probably have to ask them for one.
  16. Are formulas or conversion factors given on the exam?

    They gave me the formula for the temp conversions. No metric conversion factors. I personally use "King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk" to help me remember metrics. They asked for the area of a rectangle and did not give me a formula.
  17. How long did you study for?

    Let me preface this by saying: I have taken all of my pre-req courses (A&P, Micro, Chem, math, English, etc) so a lot of this was just review for me. TEAS overall score: 86% Percentile/Program rank :96 Reading: 85% Math: 97% Science: 78% Englis...

    @zoephan, sorry for the late response, been super busy with the holidays and everything! Did you get the packet from one of the instructors?? And yes, you guys can register already, I think as long as they have your TEAS score. Has anyone bought book...
  19. Cypress College Spring 2018 Applicants

    Congrats! Do you have the packet from orientation? All the info is in there. If you don't I would email them to send you it via email. Not sure if alternates that were accepted have the same deadline as those initially accepted. If they are the same...

    Phew, passed the TEAS with an 86%. Glad that is done and over with. I think they send our score automatically to the school right? Since we took it there...just want to make sure there was nothing else I had to do after the TEAS test.
  21. This might be a dumb question but I'm just wondering if when taking the test, if I am taking too long on a question, will the computer allow me to skip it and then return to it later? On the practice test, I think when I chose "flag for review" it di...
  22. Cypress College Spring 2018 Applicants

    ok sent it, let me know if you didn't get it.
  23. Cypress College Spring 2018 Applicants

    It is on page 12 of one of the packets we got. I can email you a picture of the page if you don't have it, just message me your email :)
  24. Cypress College Spring 2018 Applicants

    Is anyone else taking the TEAS tomorrow? I'm so nervous!

    I don't think it matters if it is buttons or zipper as long as it has a collar. One of the girls was wearing a zip up one.
