    I'm still hoping for Thursday but have a bad feeling it won't be... I'm sure there's more to it but it seems that they could have had these already racked and stacked so to speak. Such a long...

    No, when I asked I got a response on 3/20 that my score hadn't been finalized but they told me the "unofficial" score. This was well after I had completed my DET also. At least it matched what I had!...

    That is a great number to go into the test with Staceychenell! I think you are at an advantage since you have taken the test before as I don't think the format changes at all and you can rest easier...

    Boise State University - I need to confirm they will accept SWIC. I've heard good things about their program, it is affordable, and they only have stats as a pre-req. I'd also love live there one...

    I think the school TB tests are an overseas thing, Hawaii because large numbers of Asian visitors coming through so a higher chance of exposure. I have considered nursing school for a long time as...

    I don't have any current hospital experience either. I was a CNA in a nursing home many years ago when I was in college for my Bachelors degree. I'm sure we will need a TB but they may not want it...

    Well, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one to get zero on the English! I've easily passed many a reading comprehension test, not sure how I couldn't even come up with a D on this one. I foolishly...
