I'm not sure about sitting for the exam, but I worked as a CNA/PCA in a hospital in Cincinnati on 3rd shift while going to school and taking my EMT class and I know that I had ample time to study. There were some busy nights, but mostly patients were...

I took my TEAS test for Maric today and I did awful. Absolutely awful. I got a 65.9%, I am so disappointed in myself. My admissions rep told me that it's just the tie breaker at this point but I feel like I could do so much better. I would take it ag...

I had the Kaplan Nurses entrance exam study manual that I used. I didn't have the money to pay for the ATI one since it was thrown at me at the last minute. Sad but true. Plus I didn't think I'd have the time to order it and all. I just used the Kapl...

I don't think so. I just took the test for Maric's RN program at the San Diego campus. They just changed the program up a bit. Are you looking for RN or LVN?

I took the majority of the prereqs in Ky, where I started a nursing program before I got married. However...somehow biology and anatomy are not the same here as they are in Ky, same goes with psych. So here I am basically at the beginning again. No...

I know that everybody is either getting a 75 or 80% so I'm pretty low compared to that. I did sit down last night and talked to my husband, who got me to see a whole other side of this. If I don't get in in January, then I'll just take some classes a...

Thanks for responding. I was taking classes at Grossmont and headed towards their nursing program but I was told that they lost one of their accredidations, so I asked my advisor (I think you all call them counselors out here ) and he said yes and th...

Sorry I am just now getting back to you all. I take it on the 30th so I've got a little over a week to study. They are charging, but just $20, which isn't a big deal to me. When I took my entrance test at a program in Ky, I had to pay $75. I think it...

I got the call the last week that they have decided to redo their program and are now requiring the TEAS. They only have a 7 person limit for the test times so I'm waiting to see when I take it. Anyone else getting ready to take it for the January en...

Are there any military spouses in San Diego in Nursing school right now? What are some ways you deal with your spouse being gone while you're trying to study? Do any of you have any children? I'm just getting started, again. The first time I was acc...

Thanks to all that replied. I actually just got her into preschool so thats been awesome! That is going to be such a big help on me in so many ways. I had everything taken care of for Maric but they decided to change their program up(one of the many ...

Good Luck sdmommie. I'm supposed to be taking it sometime in the next couple of weeks for Maric. I'm a little nervous myself. Let us know how it goes.

Try looking into Balboa (Naval Medical Center).

I am a Navy wife and we're stationed in San Diego. We lucked out though, we've been here since 2003 and we're staying here until he gets out in 2011. I think my hardest thing to deal with is trying to get daycare for my daughter so I have less to str...

I start in February and have a daughter who is turning 3 on Nov1st of this year. My husband is in the Navy and gone a lot so this should be interesting. But whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?

Hi, my name is Melinda and I am currently a SAHM to a soon to be 3 yr old princess. My husband is in the Navy and we are stationed in San Diego, originally from Kentucky. I went to a community college last year for my pre reqs for nursing and after b...

I'm getting ready to start at Maric after playing around at Grossmont for a year. My suggestion to you is to call a couple HR offices at the local hospitals and talk to someone. Personally I made my decision after speaking to a few nurses and other s...

Hi, I'm orignally from Northern Ky and am currently in san diego due tomy husband's military career. I was at a community college last year and was told by my counselor that they lost their accredidation. So I am in the process of switching to Maric....

I just passed the entrance test and wrote my essay and the're telling me the next ADN program starts Feb 19th! So thats when I start! Maybe we'll start together.

Thats what I was told too. I was also told that they lost their national accredidation, which is really bad for me b/c I'm just in San Diego while my husband is in the Navy(until 2011) so I am starting Maric on Feb 19th.

I'm from that area, but due to my husband's military obligations, we're in San Diego. Anyways, have you checked out Brown Mackie? They're pretty reasonable and from what I'm getting, there is no wait list. Let me know if I can help you. I actually we...
