The reading comp was ******. Be careful with what they are asking. None of the vocab in the study guide was on the HESI, with an exemption of a couple med terms.
Pursuant to others suggestions about applying to other schools, I am going to take a look at SC4. Could anyone give me some information about their HESI? I have been looking on their website, and I...
Please don't let my experience make you nervous! The math is almost exactly like the study guide, and the grammar is very similar as well. I didn't have any vocab from the HESI study guide, so...
The HESI study guide did NOT prepare me for the actual HESI AT ALL. The reading comprehension questions were NOTHING like the study guide. A lot of the vocab that was on the actual HESI was NOT in the...

Yes it does. A person who has a desire to do good and become everything that a nurse "should" stand for deserves to get in over someone who picked it up because they were "bored." Screw that! This...

I couldn't agree with you more. I want to be a nurse very much, and I would be devastated if the schmucks that got accepted into school over me were ones who don't even want to be there in the first...
This won't help you at all, but I'm jealous. I would love to be in your position because I would be a nurse. Can I maybe buy your degree off you?:chuckle I'm sorry you are feeling so discouraged. I...
ToxicShock replied to californiadreaming's topic in General Nursing
Yes. To change careers to get into nursing? No. Why? Nursing is tough. Getting into nursing school is even tougher. Every day life as a nurse is tough. Nurses deal with all sorts of people, with all...
I hope that no matter what happens, we will all be able to make it into a program for fall '09. I'm trying at MCC (even though I like Baker a lot and I'm there currently), but at this point I just...
I saw a post on here a while ago that linked a database about college credits. You plugged in your schools, selected your classes, and it would tell you if they transfer or not. Does anyone know what...
I'm not 100% certain, but I -think- it was a 94 for last year (fall 2008). What his/her GPA was I don't know, but don't forget that GPA does play a factor! I'm hoping someone can confirm/deny this...
I have this disability also, and it makes math incredibly tough. I am not in nursing school at the moment, but the math classes that I have taken thus far have been a struggle for me. I have (roughly)...
ToxicShock replied to helpfulhusband's topic in Michigan Nursing
Does a Bachelor of Arts have anything to do with nursing? If not, then the classes she took for that degree are irrelevant because they are not (I'm assuming) considered pre-nursing classes. Take a...
I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to be prepared. I don't think people are worried about the content, but are instead worried that they won't be prepared, fail the test, and not make...
I think everyone knows this already. We're all adults here, and are perfectly capable of making the deicision to help out another person or not. If you don't want to give out any "insider tips",...
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the info! I'll be sure to study those conversions :) P.S. You said you studied conversions the week before. Did you use flash
