  1. I scored extremely low on my TEAS

    I'd say if the two programs that don't require the TEAS are fairly competitive or if the other six or whatever programs are ones you would really like to get into, then retake it before the 28th. You...
  2. How to manage my time?

    I agree with the previous poster. Even if you can't keep up with a planner (I'm generally terrible at using them myself), even just mentally going over what you have coming up in the next month would...
  3. Ethics of Organ Donation

    That makes sense really. Probably should have thought about it
  4. Sleep insomnia is affecting me

    Are you able to talk to your provider or leave them a message to ask what, if any, over the counter things may help you with insomnia until you can go in to see them? Otherwise, have you tried...
  5. Ethics of Organ Donation

    It sounds like the patient indicated that he would like to be an organ donor while renewing or getting his license at the DMV. However, he was never registered for the separate online donor registry,...
  6. No idea if score is good enough! Please help.

    What is a good TEAS score depends entirely on the program. You should see if there is information on the TEAS scores of those accepted into the program. There might be some threads here of people who...
  7. Funding fiasco for school,

    I've heard of some people getting funding through the NURSE Corps scholarship: NURSE Corps Scholarship Program | Bureau of Health Workforce However, it's pretty competitive, and you agree to work in a...
  8. Help! Pre-Nursing Student

    Well, you want to make sure those programs won't run into the same problem the program you planned to apply to. Check NCLEX pass rates, number of students who began vs the number who finished the...
  9. Starting Pre-Reqs

    Find your learning style now, if you don't already know it. Are you a visual, physical, auditory, or whatever learner? Does a certain combo work best for you? Knowing what resources you will need to...
  10. A&P and Micro - Summertime

    Starting off with 40 students and ending with 20 is a bit concerning, I agree. You can always see if you can find the school's NCLEX pass rates for new grads, as that might tell you if people are...
  11. Nursing school vs price? Which is more important?

    The prestige of the program isn't going to really matter much in getting a job. I've only really heard of the college you attending mattering if maybe the recruiter went to that school and feels some...
  12. A&P and Micro - Summertime

    I'm trying to figure out what you mean by not getting the number of credits you need at your main school. I'm assuming there's a nursing program at that school that you will be applying to and I guess...
  13. TEAS exam advice and help???

    I used the Mometrix study guide and thought it was good. Had 3 practice tests in it as well that were somewhat similar to the types of questions on the actual exam. I'd liken the reading and English...
  14. Help! What are my chances?

    Going to depend on the program. Some of the programs will only consider your first attempt in your prereq GPA, so anything after that won't help. However, there are still quite a bit that will take...
  15. Is it possible to finish prerequiste in 2 years ?

    Ah. Well, then that's 14 classes. So doing at most 3 classes a semester, it'd take 5 semester to do them then. As long as you do summer classes, then you can do those 14 classes in 2
  16. Is it possible to finish prerequiste in 2 years ?

    Then maybe look at the websites of the colleges you plan to apply to get for nursing. There should be some type of academic catalog that will tell you the requirements for the college based upon the...
  17. Is it possible to finish prerequiste in 2 years ?

    Generally, people can get their AA's in two years, which is 60 credit hours, so you can get quite a few classes done in 2 years. If you'd be able to by taking 3 classes a semester entirely depends on...
  18. Financial Aid

    I don't remember the FAFSA asking anything about home ownership. But I imagine any type of outside grant would be considered income, so that could decrease the amount you get because your expected...
  19. entrance essay help

    My first thought is that there's too much focus on the story and not enough on you. I like the structure. I think it's good to be able to use your story as a framing for talking about your passions,...
  20. Teas 6 study tips??

    Check your results and see what areas you missed questions on. It should literally tell you exactly what you need to review. It will give you a good idea where to start. You want to spend time on...
  21. All about the BSN

    Can't help with the last two questions, but might be able to help some with the first two. My mother has her ADN and is currently getting her BSN. All of her classes and coursework can be done online....
  22. Nursing essay due!!! HELP!!

    1. First off, the first sentence doesn't really tell us much. I'd just delete it and start off with the second sentence. 2. Otherwise, there's some awkward/wordy phrasing at times and other times...
  23. Seeking Advice about ADN. Please Help!!

    I'm not sure exactly what type of facility you work at, but a lot of the administrators of assisted living facilities I've met don't have any nursing or medical degrees. But that's probably because...
  24. Moving to Texas, apply now or wait

    Nursing courses don't transfer super often, and it's hard to do from what I've seen. Curriculum for each course varies so widely that it's hard for any program to determine if a class from another...
  25. UF Accelerated BSN, Summer 2018

    If any of the current UF nursing students are still paying attention to this thread, I have a quick question. What's the simulation resources/sim lab like (in both campuses--but I'm personally...
