    jlmcgrot replied to novicenurseash's topic in School, College Programs

    jlmcgrot replied to Hunt er's topic in General Nursing

    jlmcgrot replied to KobbyKob's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I know this is an old thread, but for those looking. I agree that the Mometrix book goes into more detail, but I disagree that the practice tests are harder, well, at least the science portion. I'm...

  7. What would you do?

    jlmcgrot replied to Hunt er's topic in General Nursing

    I just took a similar path to pursue nursing. Gave up retail management making 80K plus, but I knew retail was no longer for me, and I needed to get out. I was with a fortune 50 company and couldn't...

    I've seen you mention the ATI online review a couple of times, but what exactly are you referring to? I have the practice tests, A and B. Are you referring to the smartprep study package that is...

  14. Portage learning

    jlmcgrot replied to shalom88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It was pretty tough, but in the A&P class (not sure about micro), there are questions you have to answer within the module which gives you a good idea of what to

  15. PORTAGE LEARNING

    jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in General Students

    I'm in A&P 1. I'm taking my time with it (posted earlier in the thread) to focus on my in person micro class. I think aspects of it are harder, for example, The labs are much more time...

  16. PORTAGE LEARNING

    jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in General Students

    Also, be sure to review any questions you missed. I found a couple of errors in the grading. I don't mean "judgment call" type of errors, but really blatant errors. They were corrected after...

    jlmcgrot replied to newbienurse97's topic in General Nursing

    As a manager of people for many years, I've yet to meet anyone that didn't think they had legitimate reasons for being"sick". Most companies will give you enough occurrences to cover "legitimate"...

  21. Why is there a 7 year limit on prerequisites for nursing?

    jlmcgrot replied to mdwatkins13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think "write a check" sentiment is correct because most schools don't care where you took the class or require you retake the class with them. I suppose we could debate how serious the intent...

  22. Why is there a 7 year limit on prerequisites for nursing?

    jlmcgrot replied to mdwatkins13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took both A&P classes over 10 years ago and I'm prepping for nursing school now. I'm retaking A&P and guess what? I remember very little, but I can probably pick it up quicker. I would...
