   Nursing School Jitters

   travisandjamie01 replied to 2bnurseskip's topic in General Students

   I am so nervous and anxiously awaiting the first day of nursing school bootcamp which is on the 17th & 18th. And school officially starts on the 23rd. I feel like I've been waiting so long for this day and now I am getting excited and scared and nervous and happy and everything else all combined! We finally made, now comes the hard part!! Good luck!

   Microbiology grade came in..

   travisandjamie01 replied to WantToBeMidwife's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just got a C in Micro too...so disappointing. My teacher wasnt the best teacher though! Anyway, I was only 5 points away from a B. How frustrating. My teacher had pretty much all essay questions for every test...

   Ok I am trying to keep tabs, all starting this fall say I

   travisandjamie01 replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My school does this thing called boot camp, that is the week before classes actually start. It is a 2 day 16 hr program, that basically just tells you everything that is expected of you while in nursing school, all the details of being a nurse and so on. I think they do it to weed out people who think nursing is a cake walk. I hear they lose a few students every semester after boot camp!

   travisandjamie01 replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Me too! Me too! I'm so excited. I am proud to say I start this fall. Right after our grueling 2 day "boot camp" on August 17th!

   What TEAS score did you get & did you get accepted in the nursing program?

   travisandjamie01 replied to nursein2012's topic in TEAS

   I only got a 68% . But, the TEAS is brand new at my college and I was only the 4th person to take it. But they did tell my friend a couple months later that most people were getting between 60 & 70. So I dont feel so bad! I have a 3.63 GPA and this will be my second time applying. Last time I applied, I had taken the NET and I got a 79 overall score. I should know in the next two weeks if I am in or not!

   What classes are you taking Spring 2010?

   travisandjamie01 replied to TamiLee's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Well I am finally taking my last pre/co req, Microbiology and I am also taking a Marraige and Family Sociology class. I did apply to get into this Spring Nursing but did not get in. Hopefully I will get in for the fall. Good luck to all!

   travisandjamie01 replied to jjingles's topic in Pre-Nursing

   No, I just got my rejection letter as well. Very disappointing. I guess I just keep chugging along and try again next time. Do you have any pre or co req classes left to take? Did you apply to the Lake Havasu campus?

    travisandjamie01 replied to jjingles's topic in Pre-Nursing

    jjingles: At my comm college in Lake Havasu AZ (Mohave Community College) Once you have taken the first semester of the Nursing program you can be a CNA. There are no additional classes that you need to take. Keep in mind I dont know how your college does it...but maybe you could ask because the way I look at it is if I can do it after the first semester why take it seperately. The phlebotomy experience will be helpful as well so that is what my sights are on right now. Good Luck!

    travisandjamie01 replied to jjingles's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am taking phlebotomy this semester along with A & P 2. I wanted to take this because I am a little scared of needles and I think this might help. Plus after the first semester of nursing school I can become a CNA, so this will just give me another option! Good luck!

    NET Info

    travisandjamie01 replied to Linda87's topic in Pre-Nursing

    In mine there were science paragraphs that we had to read and then answer questions about the paragraph. I am not sure if it is like that everywhere but that is how mine was!

    Advice Please

    travisandjamie01 replied to PurposebyDesign's topic in Pre-Nursing

    You need to see if you feel comfortable taking all those classes. It can be done, but it is going to be a lot of work, especially working full time. Do you have kids? That would also make it a lot harder. I took my Human Development class online. Is that a possibility for you? That would at least give you some breathing room. Good Luck to you!

    What do your PreReqs Consist of

    travisandjamie01 replied to my4helpers's topic in Pre-Nursing

    My school requires these classes Eng 1 & 2 Psychology 1 & Human Development Humanities Algebra Bio Chem Anatomy & physiology 1 & 2 Microbiology you can apply to the program once you have a grade in Bio and Chem. But will probably not get in, unless you have almost all of it done.
