I'm weighing the pros & cons of going for my ADN vs BSN. One of the biggest factors for me is cost..... I do have a BS already in Business. This semester I am taking A&P I, Bio Chemistry, Psych 2314 and a PE class (required by TCC). I will h...

Can I just say UGGGGG? We are 1/2 way through the project, and I *thought* I had mine identified. Well now it appears that one of mine was contaminated and I have to start all over!!!!! A lot of people in my lab are already done! I, on the other ha...

Hi! When does the Mental Health section start and how long does it last? I'm trying to get an idea of what my summer will look like next year!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this post and the responses! I will be starting nursing school in January and the ONLY thing I am worried about is the "gross" stuff! I just don't know HOW on earth I will handle it?!?!?!? Both my mom and my sis...

Yes, I just finished last week! How about you? I'm not sure yet what I'll do in the fall. Maybe take Spanish... and something fun like Yoga or Pilates.

Hola! Do ya' mean who is applying IN the spring??? Or who is applying in the fall to START in the spring? I think we're getting a mix of answers here! I will be applying in the fall! I applied this past spring but didn't get accepted because I h...

I 2nd Lindsey! I have my final with her on Monday and it's been a good class.

I second that! And don't give up. Even though Micro is also not "required" (nor is A&P II) for where I applied, there are just SO many applicants who have all of their classes completed that without it, there's almost NO chance of getting in. I...

Conrats to you both! Now you'll have to come here to post in the fall & let us know what to expect in the first semester of nursing school!

Letters came today! I didn't get in... but no big surprise. I am taking A&P II and Micro this semester as well, so I'll be set for the fall. :nuke:

I just got home from lab & my teacher was very helpful. Actually about 1/2 of the class was still in there stuggling (not just me!!!). She knew that we were running out of time & told us what to inoculate next. I will go to a different lab...

Thanks for the info! When I go to school this evening I will get the notes from someone in my class. Maybe this won't be as bad as I think! I just feel pressed for time. We don't have partners & we have 2 unknowns! At least I already have one...

OH thank you!!! I appreciate it!! This teacher just gets somewhat "snippy" and "snappy" at times ...... we never know if she's going to be in a good mood or not!

No, she didn't give us a chart. That's why I feel lost & overwhelmed! That with the added stress of being so far behind schedule already. All I know is that it will be a Gram negative and I have to do a gram stain tomorrow to see if it's a rod or...

I'm taking both of them this semester & it IS a lot of work. However, I don't have kids & only work weekends so I have ALL week to focus on the classes. I definitely need it! It's difficult, but can be done. So far I am maintaining A's in...

Here's a link to their nursing info: http://www.tccd.edu/neutral/divisiondepartmentpage.asp?PageKey=121&menu=3& The next deadline will be in the fall for Spring 2009. They accept students every fall & spring semester. Approximately 400 ap...

I was complaining to hubby one day that I "don't have a life" (since starting school) and ya' know what he told me? School IS your life! Your life right now is to be a student! So true. :) So life is happening right now. And believe me, marriage...

Yep, I got mine in!!! But no stress here.... because I'm 99.99999% sure that I won't get in this time. LOL My sciences aren't done yet but I wanted to apply anyways.... just because I CAN. (Woo hooo!) At least now my TEAS & everything are out...

It is going to vary by school & how competitive it is, but it was said at the info session for my school last week that 70's & 80's were good. We have 400+ students applying for 100 positions every semester. They also said that the science po...

I wouldn't sweat it either! In the info session today they said that 70's & 80's were good scores for the TEAS. They also said that the science classes were weighted more than the TEAS test score. Does anyone know if people have been accepted w...

Yep! Same here. 30 questions in all with maybe 5 in Anatomy. I'd say a few more than that in Chemistry. Then there were some general science ?'s ~ like someone else mentioned ~ similiar to what you might have had in 7th or 8th grade!!! Those are...

I just went to an information session at my school & they said you could only take the TEAS test twice! And they said that if you happen to do worse the 2nd time.... they will take your most recent score no matter what it is! So those of you thi...

i just took it today! all of the tests will be a little different, but i didn't have any strange graphs. the study guide helped. also, having just had a&p i and chemistry last semester helped too. it wasn't too bad & only about 30 science...

I am going to the information session tomorrow! Sounds like you just have to accept your spot when the letters come out in May and then you're set!

34 I am taking my last 2 pre-req's now. I have a BS degree (from '95) so when I decided to go back to school I had to take 6 pre-req's. :)
