  1. Currently working on my RN in California, and I'm deciding between CalState Dominguez Hills and ASU for my BSN. My questions are: How quickly can you finish at ASU? I know they have concurrent...
  2. I have to do a paper on a patient who has had a stroke and is nonverbal. He attempts to point at images to communicate, but is not always successful. But he does respond to verbal commands with his...

    Also, while. I'm here: I've been wondering about the dresscode and what to buy besides the scrubs and uniform. I have tattoos on my wrist and forearms, so I guess I'll need to wear some sort of...

    You could maybe get a loan to bridge the gap of the lost income. It sucks, but it will be worth it in the long
  5. Fall 2021 College of the Desert

    I got in! I will also say that people in the nursing department were totally helpful and responsive to an issue I had. I wouldn't hesitate to bring any issues to

  7. Fall 2021 College of the Desert

    Oh man...I don't know yet! I had another issue, something like the one above, so they DIDN'T accept me. But I contacted the department head and straightened it out, so they're looking at my...

    Thanks! I'm just worried I did something stupid on the application that disqualifies me- like, at first I sent it Registered mail rather than Certified (so I sent it again). I actually applied to...

    EVERYONE is going to get lower points with this new point system! We're all in the same boat. I would definitely NOT feel discouraged yet. I'm actually taking Argumentation and Statistics this...
  11. Fall 2021 College of the Desert

    So, yeah- they totally changed the point system! If I calculated everything correctly, I'm at 67. I got above a 90 on my TEAS, which I did not expect, and that gave me a bit more of a cushion. I...
  12. TEAS Exam

    WOAH. Just finished- I got a 91.3! But lemme tell you, there were hardly any questions from those 2 quizlets on my test. There were actually a lot of things I didn't study (from the B and C tests and...
  13. I'm taking the TEAS test in a month and I'm trying to decide the best way to study: I've got the Mometrix book and I purchased practice tests on Nurse Hub. The Mometrix book material is WAY less...
  14. TEAS Exam

    I am taking the test next week as well (Thursday). I have trouble just reading the Mometrix book and the ATI manual. I do better taking practice tests and targeting the areas where I really need to...

    Hi Ya'll, I've been following this post for a bit and it's helped my studying so much- thanks! Quick question for anyone who took the test remotely: can you use scrap

    Thank you! I'm not taking the test until August, so going to spend the Summer studying. Going to join that facebook group as well. I actually haven't taken Chemistry, so I better try to...

    Hi! I've been working on my pre-reqs for COD's RN program. This thread (and the one from last year) have been super helpful. Wondering if you got in? And how you found the TEAS?
