I have several friends who are RNs and, from what they've told me, very little of what is in the pre-reqs is even necessary to remember! One, who works in cardiac care in the hospital, says the only...
I absolutely agree with you! I've seen this happen, both with a nurse and with a doctor, when dealing with my mom's care. After my mom passed away because of multiple errors by her cardiothoracic...

Hi, Amy! I'm at Ivy Tech in Richmond too, but I'm applying for this fall. The TEAS test is not so bad. I found it to be kind of like the Compass test that you take for admission to Ivy Tech. It...

Now I'm freaking out too! I'm 42 and I can't afford to have to wait another year to get in. I don't really have time to take the TEAS again, so I'm going to have to just wait it out and cross my...

Does anyone know approximately how much the Ivy Tech nursing uniforms cost? Are they available in plus sizes? I can't find any info about this online at all. I hope to start the nursing program in...

I took the TEAS a couple of months ago and got a 94. I didn't think it was too bad. It's pretty much all general knowledge stuff, kind of like the Compass test. There's nothing on the math portion...

I was told at my nursing info session in Richmond that they're admitting 40 for Fall 2008. Earlier here, I read 10. Anyone know which is correct? I have a 4.0 so far and score 94 on my TEAS, but...
