I am submitted an application by endorsement and was told I need a microbiology with lab course for a CA nursing license. I will have to take the class online due to my work schedule. Does anyone know of an affordable online college that offers a mic...

No, I just completed it at a community college. The CA BON is so funny about things, and I didn't want to take any chances.

I am looking into NP schools and am having a hard time deciding on which path to take. Does it really matter if you do the FNP track vs a FNP/Adult-Geron NP track? The courses look very similar, but I am wondering if the dual role would really be nec...

Thanks for your input! Ugh...decisions, decisions.

Hang in there. Nursing school prepares you for the NCLEX BUT not necessarily real world experiences. I learned more my first 6 weeks of being a nurse than I did as a nursing student. When I precept , I try to remember how it was as a new grad and don...

No I still haven't found one. Ugh! If I do hear of something I'll let you know. There has to be an online course somewhere.

Has anyone been accepted into the ADN program at Forsyth Tech? I want to apply for Spring 09. I want to know about how many points I would need to even make it into the program. They would not tell me when I called. It would be nice to know so I can ...

I have been out of school for over 10 years. I do not remember any of the science or a&p for the Teas. I am very confident with the other sections. I am so worried about science portion. My question is has anyone else been in my situation and stu...

You should definitely get in with 152 points. I had 143 and got in this fall. Hi Julie lol!! Leah

I have a VERY weak stomach, but surprisingly I don't really get sick at the hospital. I think because I am just focusing on caring for the patient. Now on the ride home, I sometimes gag a little when I think back. Oh, and I always have to take 2 bath...

Hmm, honestly I would wait on the coloring book and color it as you learn the different systems. I would go ahead and start learning to identify things using a book, but I'd wait for the coloring. The coloring book really helps with the little detail...

Yes! I received my date I had to take it in the mail 3 weeks before the exam. I only had 3 weeks to read the CNA book and practice the skills. It can be done. I read the book the first 2 weeks and practiced the skills the last week. You tube really h...

I agree that youtube.com will help. Just search for the skills that you want to see. Also, don't worry about there being so many steps. It looks like a lot, but really most steps are common sense. Practice the skills on someone. I challenged the exam...

If you are saying you want to be a CNA while you are in school, then I think it would be worth a shot. I challenged the CNA exam because I have to be a CNA before I start nursing school in the Fall. I didn't have time to take a CNA course. I don't kn...

atitesting.com might be the only place to buy one unless you can find one used somewhere

don't waste your money. It's common sense stuff you already know about general test taking strategies.

I would definitely try Craigslist.com. There are a lot of in home daycares that are open during those times. I would be sure to check references. You shouldn't have any trouble finding anyone on craigslist. I used to have an inhome daycare, and that'...

oops, sorry, i never saw you wrote me. yes, i am applying in the fall. i am going to call early next week to schedule the teas. i am going to have to do a lot of studing because i have been out of school for so long

thanks. maybe we can help each other out. I am a little nervous. I can't remember....have you already taken the TEAS? Oh, and what about the CNA requirement..have you taken care of that already? I need to get on the ball, I haven't done either.

I did. What about you? Did you get in? I am taking the hybrid course. I don't know what I was thinking. Oh well, hopefully I'll do okay.

are you taking just nursing courses, Lindsey?

I saw my advisor Monday of this past week as soon as advising supposedly started. I was the first person she saw, but number 4 in her pile. So,evidently,not everyone had to wait til advising week. I really hope I get in to bio 165 because that's all ...

didn't even apply. There's no way I'd make it. I am going to apply for Fall. Has anyone taken bio 165 yet? i heard it's really hard to get into the class. Is that true? I have already seen my advisor, but I'm still worried. Is it hard to get into Sur...

I don't know the max Teas score, but I think it would be okay if you didn't start if Fall. I mean, if you still have a couple of pre-req's, maybe it would be best to get them out of the way before you start the nursing program. I think that's why the...

I haven't taken the Teas yet. I am trying to study as much as possible first. Also, the person you have to call to sign up with asked if I would wait until after the October cut off for the Spring students to take it because they don't have many slot...
