  1. Flashcards will help, and there should be several sets already made up that will show you pictures of various tissues, in case you have to recognize tissues by tissue slides. Try to rationalize what...
  2. Maths Help Please

    A good part of them are word problems (at least on mine). But they were fairly simple word problems for fractions, ratios, and such. Conversions between US and metric system were given on mine. But...
  3. UF Accelerated BSN, Summer 2018

    Looks like it's some under 87% for Gainesville for the fourth quarter of 2017. http://floridasnursing.gov/forms/rn-pass-rate-4q-2017.pdf If you go down to UF's it shows the number who have attempted...
  4. Interested in becoming a nurse.

    I think you have to sit down and figure out where you are having issues. Is it a lack of effort? Is it from a lack of opportunity for a qualify education? Was it external circumstances that prevented...
  5. Worried About getting in Nursing School

    You can always apply to UNF and any other places that don't require that you have all the prereqs completed, and then if you don't get into any of them, you can apply for the other places that require...
  6. TEAS VI ATI

    I'm not sure you can technically fail the TEAS, but the average is about 65%. (Of course, some programs accept those scores and admit those who make a 65%.) I don't think the test is necessarily hard....
  7. UNF BSN 2018

    I'm going to try to go to the workshop, but I just started a new job. So it's probably going to depend on if I have that weekend off or not or if I think I could make it back to my house/job by the...
  8. UF Accelerated BSN, Summer 2018

    I'm pretty sure my assessment email was sent to at least 300 people. I think when I added up the numbers from people who replied here, it was around 700 applicants? Which might be a bit over or could...
  9. Know that you are not eligible for federal grants for a second bachelor's degree, so the only financial aid you'd get for the ABSN is low/no interest loans. To me, there's no benefit in finishing a...
  10. Is self suffiency a good enough reason to attend nursing school?

    I don't think that's enough to be the sole reason to go into nursing (or any job) because there are many other professions you can get into that will also help with financial stability. There should...
  11. Nursing School Essay

    The organization and wording is pretty good. I think there are some areas to improve though to better get your points across. First, you need to bring the first paragraph back to nursing...
  12. Was it verbal abuse? Y/N or maybe?

    I see that as a different scenario, honestly. In that situation, the CNA is yelling at a patient in frustration over their displaying a symptom of their disease. Dementia patients aren't wandering as...
  13. pre-nursing student but feel like i'm not doing enough...

    Programs aren't going to expect you to be able to draw blood to get admitted. That's something you'd learn while in the program, not something you need to know now. I'm not even sure if that's...
  14. Then you should definitely be able to get on somewhere. There's a lot of places specifically for tutoring, but I've also heard of some people who just set up their own service and find customers,...
  15. I assume that your parents didn't want you to get a job so that you could spend time on getting good grades? If so, then you should be in a position to start aggressively applying for scholarships....
  16. Can i bee a nurse if ...?

    It's less whether learning science comes naturally and easy to you and more if you can put in whatever effort necessary to learn the science you need. I've heard of quite a few people who have gone...
  17. BSN or MSN Direct Entry?

    Sounds like you're better off getting a BSN. I'd think it'd be incredibly hard getting a job as a clinical nurse leader right out of school when you have no nursing experience. Plus, it costs more and...
  18. The easiest option seems to be to call those programs and ask if they accept prereqs done online and go from there. That way, you have all the actual info and can plan accordingly. It would prevent...
  19. Does your motivation ever waver?

    If this type of studying schedule is new to you, then I wouldn't worry that some lack of motivation or bumps indicating that you're going to turn back into "old you." It's going to take a bit for you...
  20. TEAs is Saturday - HELP ME

    First off, you want to take a second to stop panicking and let go of the worrying for at least now. Panicking isn't going to help. In fact, it'll make it worse. I know I make more mistakes and click...
  21. Teas 6 Reading help!

    There are different versions of the exam, so yes, most likely it will be entirely different
  22. Should nurses post on social media, HIPAA violation?

    They were referring to the ER nurse NurseCard mentioned: ‘New York Med’ nurse fired for ‘insensitive’ Instagram shot | New York Post (and *HIPAA on my original post that I can't edit now.
  23. Should nurses post on social media, HIPAA violation?

    I don't think she violated HIPPA, but I don't really think it was a smart decision to post this type of video while still in uniform, mentioning specific things that occurred that day, on a Facebook...
  24. SO EXCITED!!

    Congrats! And application essays are fairly common. Quite a few people will post their essays here for
  25. HELP. Straight BSN or RN then BSN?

    The university's website should have a page just for the nursing program, which will discuss what's offered in the program as well as the requirements. I haven't found a university program that...
