  1. Apollo College myths

    TinkRN8 replied to carsonallen1's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Have they opened up the RN course at the Mesa location yet, or is it still only at the Phoenxi

  2. Anyone else taking the weekend CNA class that starts on October 18 at RSAA?

    TinkRN8 replied to JessLP's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi, I am signed up for the evening class starting 11/10. How were clinicals? I believe you do them at a nursing home in Ft

  3. Chem 130 at Rio

    TinkRN8 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have my Chem 130 mid-term on Saturday. I am doing well in the class, getting a A, however, I am really worried about having to remember all of the formulas, conversion factors, etc. Plus the time...

  4. NET and Banner Nurse Fellows

    TinkRN8 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I just got back from taking the NET, and scored pretty respectably, a 77 on the math and 70 on the reading. Actually, I can't believe I did better on the math than the reading part. I think I was...

  5. CNA after 1st year of nursing school?

    TinkRN8 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Does anyone know if you are able to work as a CNA after you have completed your first year of nursing school? I know that in some states you are able to, but not sure if this is the fact in AZ....

  6. CNA after 1st year of nursing school?

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi! Yes, St. Joes is a CHW hospital. You can go onto the Banner or CHW websites to check out what job openings they have available. As far as extern positions, from what I can tell, at least on the...

  7. NET and Banner Nurse Fellows

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for your response. I did go to the meeting in December, and got the application and was looking at it last night. I know you have to attach a copy of your NET scores, I just wasn't sure if...

  8. Psy 101 @ Rio Salado

    TinkRN8 replied to Hausfrau's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I am 1/2 way through it now. It is pretty darn easy. You just write essays and then the final. The final is just another essay. You are given exactly what the final essay will be on so you can be...

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi, I started this thread and appreciate so much you giving us all this info. You are 1/2 way through! Can't wait to be there. Sounds like you are having a wonderful experience. Wow, clinicals are...

  10. Rio Salado Placement Policy

    TinkRN8 replied to alliphx's topic in Arizona Nursing

    you are correct that is the same for all the mccd schools. however, the more options, you get up to 5, you put down, the sooner you will probably get in somewhere. flexibility is the key. i do...

  11. Central AZ College

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Congrats finally starting your nursing journey. I am taking the CNA course through RSAA in November, and bio202 in September. So, won't be able to apply for the January start. Will have everything...

  12. Central AZ College

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for your reply! That is what I was thinking, but was hoping they might also be at some of the hospitals in the east valley. Did you get right in, or have to wait a

  13. Started Bio/156 at Rio today

    TinkRN8 replied to JessLP's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I understand the getting done fast part. Sounds like you have the time to do all the work, which is good. Hopefully, you have a good instructor, as again, that makes all the difference in the world....

  14. Chem 130 at Rio

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi AZMOM02! Yeah, I was dreading chem and saved it for last. I went into it thinking I would be happy if I got a C. I know not a good attitude, but like you I hated the chem parts of BIO and was just...

  15. Started Bio/156 at Rio today

    TinkRN8 replied to JessLP's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Drop it and take the regular 16 wk course, unless this is the absolute only class you are taking. Even then, 8 wks is going to be really rough. This was the first course I took at RIO 2 yrs ago, and...

  16. Psy 101 Online

    TinkRN8 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Has anyone taken psy 101 online at either MCC or CGCC? If so, was it all online? Also, what did the class assignments entail? I already signed up through Rio, but am considering taking it...

  17. How Long Did Part Timers Wait

    TinkRN8 replied to salimom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I didn't know they only admitted 1 X/yr and only 20 students at Gateway. That is disappointing to hear. Maybe a miracle can happen and we both get in for the Spring 09 semester...LOL:chuckle. You...

    TinkRN8 replied to salimom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi! I saw no one had answered your post yet. I am not applying until September (finishing up my last 2 pre-req...woohoo! ), but I will also be applying to the Gateway part-time program....

  19. BIO 202 at RIO (online)?

    TinkRN8 replied to RobynBobbin's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, Phoenix does offer both courses online. I have heard really good things about their online anatomy courses, so if I go the online route for 202, I will definately take it there. I am not sure...

  20. BIO 202 at RIO (online)?

    TinkRN8 replied to RobynBobbin's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know! So random! I was lucky I was getting an A in the class prior to the final. It was the final that killed me. I REALLY wanted an A in that class, as anatomy is my absolute fave subject and I...

  21. BIO 202 at RIO (online)?

    TinkRN8 replied to RobynBobbin's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have to agree with Knorrmeisje and everyone else, I would recommend taking the BIO202 either in person or online through MCC, Gateway, Phoenix...basically any other school but Rio...and definately...

  22. Psy 101 Online

    TinkRN8 replied to TinkRN8's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I am sticking with Rio. Just psy 101 and chem, which I am taking together, and I can apply in September! In first week on both and they really don't seem too bad. I was a little worried about...
