   Thoughts on ATI: Assessment Technologies Institute

   pla84 replied to StudentNurseElle's topic in Student Assist

   nah I'm in Louisiana, following my husband, he stations here. I lived in GA once though back in 2007. Wow you scored very high! way to go! Thank you for your suggestion. I've been trying to do practice tests several times and read the rationale and yes the scariest part for me is the psych stuff, cuz even the rationale itself doesn't explain the correct answer very well. Well, Congratulations! I'll try to study hard for ATI and the final too.

   Any TEAS-RN Study groups?

   Hi I got accepted from NSU. I think you will definitely get higher than 70% just keep practicing and you will be fine. I'm not hespanic though, I'm from Thailand. I arrived this country almost 4 years now. Good Luck:up:

   sounds like you study really hard eheh I wish I were like you. I was like you when I took the test I havn't had anatomy yet. But I don't think it will be on the test. Kaplan science section is kinda harder than the actual test ( I think ). The math part saved my life although no calculator was allowed because English is not my first language. I could imagine 2 kids and school. I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 2 1/2 month old and still breastfeeding ( she doesn't let me quit ) so I didn't take anything in the summer. Good luck and I hope you get in the school you want ok?

   I would suggest you to buy the online practice just so you know what the test would look like and timed it while you practice cuz you have 60 minutes per each section if I remember right. One code you can practice 2 times I think. Good Luck and score 100!

    really ? I read in the degree program that in order to graduate you have to have at least 12 hours non nursing course with NSU but it doesn't say anywhere that you have to have at least 12 hourse at NSU to apply for clinical. Unless they expect you to finish every non nursing courses before applying for clinical.

    opinion about nsu shreveport vs panola in carthage...

    pla84 replied to polishgurlrn2b's topic in Louisiana

    Thank you so much for your suggestion Piccliner... I will definitely reapply if I don't get accepted for this fall. I'm not working but I just haven't taken Physiology and microbiology yet. So I probably have to take it online "IF" I get into clinical soon. :)

    Thank you K T did and piccliner... I'm trying to to freak out but it's hard eheh I have a bachelor degree but it's from another country so I dont' know if they will consider that or not. Do you know when should I find out if I get in or not? cuz I heard ppl said that applying deadline for fall is May 31 but I won't hear anything til August... that's pretty long!

    I'm about to apply to NSU ADN program:rolleyes: amd freaking out real bad.... any idea of how much GPA and TEAS score consider as a safe zone?... I didn't do well on TEAS while many other ppl got 90% and above... I can't sleep, can't eat, can't study... am I freaking out too much ? does anybody feel like this before when you apply for clinical?

    If you barely pass A&P, should you continue with nursing?

    pla84 replied to nobhill's topic in Pre-Nursing

    hang in there, if you really really want it! i got a bachelor of art too and i was half way through engineering degree but i want to become a nurse. i really want it because i saw my sisters work and i appreciate healthcare job so much (just now). they told me exactly the same thing that i'm going to tell you that a&p, is nothing but study over and over again until you get it. where on the test that you're not doing good, try to work on it. ask the teacher, what can you do to do better on the test or any extra credit that you can do to help with your grade. it's not about should you continue in nursing or not, it's about how much you want it and how hard would you fight for it. it's not going to be easy and maybe even harder later on, are you able to handle it.
