I'm 23 years old and I've been in school since I graduated from high school which was in 2014. I pretty much got my prerequisites done but I have like three more or a couple more to do if I go for BSN. I applied to the RN program in 2016 but I didn't get in. Then I waited again to apply and try for the LVN program which was this year. I didn't get a no but instead I'm on the alternate list. I also failed A&P 2 twice but decided to apply to the LVN program and take a break from A&P 2 and come back later if I go for RN. I'm stressed and feel bad that I didn't get a yes.. I'm happy but I feel a bit down. At first I was telling myself that I will get into the nursing program but then I doubt myself I just hope and have faith that they will give me a chance. If I don't get into the LVN program I thought about taking a break from school because I feel worn out. I will have to start paying out of pocket so I would like to save up. Would taking a break help me get my academic performance up? Has any new nurses or students taken a break? I just want to be able to improve on everything and get my self back up mentally. Is being on the alternate list a bad thing? Has anyone experienced being on the alternate list. Thank you.

I have Test anxiety so I tend to get anxious or nervous. My brain starts to wonder off too. The Teas Test can be something good or bad. I really want to do good on the Teas Test. I've already took it once and I didn't do to hot on it. So this time around I want to improve my score a lot. I know I need a Teas practice handbook which I could get from Barnes and Noble or the Teas website. My study habits is not the best but I'm willing to study my butt off. Any good advice is needed. Tips and all! I know what to expect from the test but also something that's helpful is how many hours did someone study for each section? I'm going to prepare a month in advance. I've been watching YouTube videos to see others advice but I just want to be prepared. The first time I admit I wasn't ready. My mind wasn't right and I was really stressed. I heard that the Teas Test is for us to learn how to take a test. I don't know because I'm not good at taking tests. Also what are ways I can make studying for the Teas Test interesting? That'll be helpful too because I do get bored or sleepy whenever I study for things. Sometimes my brain wonders off and I'm thinking of something else out of the blue. The grade that I want is in the A or B range. Even if I get a C I'll be satisfied because C's get degrees too. I'm willing to hear all the amazing advice whether you passed it or have tips that helped you improved while taking this test. All helpful advice is needed please and thank you!

I am almost done with my Prereqs for Nursing and I am truly proud. I applied to the nursing program before and didn't get in my first time due to me not doing well on the Teas test. I dropped A&P 2 because I was so stressed to the point where I felt like I needed to pull my hair out. I lost my motivation this semester because I didn't get into the nursing program which caused me to get an D in A&P 2 plus I ended up in an car accident so I wasn't focused when finals came around. I don't have a low D and it's pretty close to a C but still. My advisor told me to just keep going and take Microbiology and apply for the LVN program. I'm getting tired of A&P and it's like my motivation always leaves me. I'm almost done with the finish line. RN and LVN are two different programs at my school so I'm thinking of just trying to get into the LVN program so I can just hurry up and be in a program because honestly retail isn't working for me. I want to retake A&P 2 and do better but should I just continue with Microbiology or just retake A&P 2? I just want to get everything over with. Microbiology and A&P 2 (Retaking it) is all that I have left. This is my first D by the way and regardless I am going to retake A&P 2 but I'm kind of being too hard on myself I guess. Any lovely advice is needed.
