    UA MEPN 2019

    araew2129 replied to ATstudent's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Decisions will go out on Feb 25th. I would assume alternates will be notified of their alternate status that day too. I agree there is a lot of movement on that list in the first couple weeks after...

    araew2129 replied to Ztmatth13's topic in General Students

    Agree with everyone else. But also, you could look into doing home based care. You make less money typically, but many clients are fully functional and need minimal help with ADLs, or things like...

    araew2129 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school, only the LPN would give you a leg up in applying to the RN program. Maybe there is another LPN program which doesnt cost so much? That cost seems very excessive to me, BSN programs dont...

    I posted this on another thread: Math is a lot of fractions and decimals, plus basic algebra. Reading and writing are a bit harder to pin down. I'll post a link to a review I thought was spot on! And...

    araew2129 replied to GingerIvy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Kglancaster you might be confused. The Kaplan exam is a standardized test, much like the hesi or teas. I don't believe the OP is speaking about the school you are mentioning, but rather the entrance...

    araew2129 replied to chawley15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    After taking the Kaplan, I can say you probably don't need to commit much time to digestive or endocrine. And I didn't study at all for reading or writing and did fine, I don't think there is much way...
