  1. Can low TEAS hurt?

    :ancong!:
  2. Vent! They cancelled our pinning!

    This is actually what I was going to suggest! Most churches are much more beautiful than anything at your school anyway. And if the school doesn't want to be a part of this important tradition with...
  3. Can low TEAS hurt?

    Well, you're probably testing by now, so good luck! The TEAS is not so bad, but a low score can definitely hurt you. If you're pretty good with general knowledge stuff, you should be fine. Let us...
  4. Comm 101 @Ivy Tech

    When I took COM 101 online at Ivy Tech, we went in for 2 consecutive Saturdays and gave our speeches. It was a great way to do it, much less trouble than recording. They said they did it this way...
  5. When you graduate what part of nursing are you going into?

    I've been through CABG, so I really think I'd like to work in cardiac care. I can understand what the patients are going through so, hopefully, I'd be a supportive advocate as well as a capable nurse...
  6. Can you get student loans after a Bankruptcy

    Most of what has been said is correct as far as I know. However, I do know that while you're in the midst of bankruptcy you cannot get financial aid or student loans, even Stafford loans. You have...
  7. PDA for Ivy Tech nursing program

    I hope to start the ASN at Ivy Tech Richmond in August and I'm thinking of saving up for a PDA. I know IU requires one, but I don't think Ivy Tech does. Does anyone know if it would be helpful? If...

    Can you birdie tweet you any info about
  9. April Nursing Information Session- Ivy Tech

    You must be running crazy! I'm amazed you can think a conscious
  10. Teas Test

    I took it a few months ago. I didn't think it was too bad. It seemed similar to the Compass test that I had to take for admission to the college. There are sections for math, reading, English, and...
  11. Do you have to buy a stethoscope?

    That's why I had my name engraved on the tubing of mine. I think I'll have it engraved on the bell as
  12. April Nursing Information Session- Ivy Tech

    The info session is absolutely on big deal. Just a good but of info, but nothing you don't probably already know. Best wishes on beginning your
  13. Do you have to buy a stethoscope?

    I got a Littmann Cardiology III from allheart and it wasn't too awfully expensive, considering it has a 5 year warranty. I can hardly wait to learn to use it
  14. Teas Test

    I'm so bummed! The last info I heard from Ivy Tech here in Richmond is that we won't hear anything until at least early June. Yikes! This gives us very little time to get our ducks in a row before...
  15. Now the waiting begins.....

    Do you have a link to look at this
  16. Denied

    I would definitely echo the sentiments of those who suggest taking the TEAS again. With your GPA, I'm sure you can pull a better score and you'll be much more likely to gain entrance into whatever...
  17. Now the waiting begins.....

    I'd really like to find out some info about clinicals also. My son is 12, but he has some medical problems and I can't really just have him get himself off to school. Being able to plan far ahead...
  18. Getting in shape/Losing weight in pre-nursing/NS support thread

    This is a great idea and I'm definitely in! I had weight loss surgery a little over a year ago and have lost 175 pounds. But I still desperately need to lose another 50 before clinicals would start....
  19. Am I Too Old?

    You are DEFINITELY not too old! I'm 42 and I'm just entering the program to get my RN this fall. You are just a young thing! Go for
  20. When taking AP I did it help to have Chem first

    It absolutely is doable, however I think it would have been helpful to have chem first, at least where I go to school. The first 2 or 3 chapters of ANP 1 have a lot to do with chemistry. If I'd had...
  21. How many times can I take the TEAS exam?

    The school I attend is the same way. You can take it three times, but they have to be 30 days apart. And then they take the highest score. It probably does vary from school to school,
  22. How long for the letter at Ivy Tech??

    Maybe she's going to work from home so she doesn't have to deal with all the calls from students saying, "Where's my letter?!"
  23. How long for the letter at Ivy Tech??

    As I understand it, that is kinda right and kinda wrong. The Spring grades will count, but it won't be a conditional acceptance. Claudia Mitchell told me that they won't actually send out letters...
  24. Taking Blood Pressure - I feel stupid

    Thank you for that suggestion! I'll try it! I bought a Littmann Cardiology III and thought I was doomed because I couldn't take a BP with it. I figured if I couldn't hear clearly with it, I was in...
  25. TEAS Test--Study Buddy

    I agree with you. I didn't think it was that bad. I didn't study at all and got
