I just spoke with someone in advising... I was recently told by a different advisor that the last pre req gpa "cut off" for the generic RN program was in the 3.5 range (WITH Cs being retaken) which was verified by what I read here. Today I was told t...

Anyone a current or past student of PTEC LPN program? Any info to share? What amount of "points" did you need to get in? Thanks.

Thanks! That totally worked. I got an 88. So, like I said, I had not studied/prepared at all so I'm hoping I can pull my score up at least a couple points. So as of now, 88 TEAS and 3.46 gpa Allison

Hi, I am applying. I have a gpa of 3.46. I took the teas a while ago and I can't find my score report but I just called and someone is going to call me and tell me what my score is. I'll post it here when I know. I will probably take the teas again ...

I literally have tears rolling down my face! I am so glad that you guys can act so selflessly! I hope that I can be as fabulous as all of you! Allison

I have gotten this comment in MANY classes at my university and at the cc. some instructors have clearly stated that they believe this is because the average age of evening students is higher and that many are professionals. Additionally that on aver...

I think this is disgusting and this person is probably a cheater and hopefully will never be responsible for care of anyone I know. I am very surprised that so many people share the view that this is not a patient safety issue. There are ALWAYS peop...

someone said coupons... I think this is a great idea but I have found that most of the time just buying generic stuff saves about the same amount without having to hunt through the paper. I also do not buy books that are not required and in some clas...

I am very frugal , I have an old car that gets 28 mpg and is cheap to insure, I used my tax return to pay tuition, work part time (usually! I can NOT find a job right now with a lot of experience), use my mom and sister as baby sitters (to save money...

What is the schedule at HCC? I read the in class time is only 6 hours a week and other programs in the area are around 20, just wondering if this is correct. Thanks.

anyone else?

Hello, Is it harder to get into a graduate nursing program with an LPN to RN bridge program than with a straight RN program? I am applying to both an LPN and an RN program right now. I prefer the LPN program because a signifigant portion is online...

yeah, they are. but thanks, that was a great thought.

Thanks. I feel a little pressured because I have my GEN ED finished and will probably apply to grad programs very shortly after finishing the BSN so there isn't any "re-do" time.

my point is that this is not some free, seemingly altruistic site to help all the test takers around, there purpose is to sell stuff and they are misleading. Their TEAS math review, for example, is exactly the same as 4 other tests I randomly clicke...

can I use the clast study guide to review for the teas? Also, I am having a very hard time finding clear info about what is actually covered on the teas, any info? Thanks, Allison

Hi, I appreciate you replying but I found this information to be inaccurate. I was aware of these sites before I posted.... The "unofficial study guide..." website is crap...they list the TEAS review questions for MULTIPLE exams and then try to sell...

Hi, I understand it's competitive and I am applying to both RN and LPN programs. My frustration is the contradictory information I am given! Is it 3.5 or 3.9 I don't know because apparently they don't either!!!!!! I know it is lower than that for ot...

Hi everyone, I was wondering what the typical school schedule for an LPN day program is..... 7-3 M-F, 8-2 M-R, etc? Thanks, Allison

Hello, I just found out my boyfriend is likely taking a post doc position at NRL in DC and I have no idea what to do! I was going to start a nursing program in Tampa, Florida but obvioulsy the plan has changed. I did some searches for RN programs in...

Thanks guys, this is a lot of useful information! I'm confused, is it reasonable to espect to live in MD and not have a car? Is that hard to get use to, I love the idea of public transportation but I've always had my own car, and I have kids....does ...

Hello, I am applying to the nursing programs in the tampa area, (hcc, spc and phcc) I was hoping someone can tell me what they have gotten in with GPA wise, or what they area aware of as far as the GPA cut off for the last couple entry peroids. Tha...

I just have to agree with the quote below. I work for social security and I have SEEN EVERY SELF INFLICTED ISSUE THERE IS and I don't agree with OP although I absolutely understand the frustration. to give just a couple examples.... I see morbidly, ...

Anyone ever figure this out? I am currently a USF student, I can't find any info about the cut off for that program either... Thanks

I work as a crisis counselor at a crisis center where we have a "nurse examiner" program. All the sexual assaults in the area that don't need to go to the hospital come to our facility where they meet with a counselor and are given an exan by an NP w...
