  8. TEAS examination

    dorkalicious replied to ttt-n's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that the ATI online practice test was a good way to get a feel for what the real test was like. However, study guides were what helped me do superb on my test. I got my scores printed out...

    Congrats on doing so well! See what I meant when I said it is easier than what most people think it is? Good luck on getting into your school of choice, I start in

    dorkalicious replied to clhRN2b2010's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Well good luck SiennaGreen! On the contrary, I just went and signed a letter to decline the offer that was given to me by my community college earlier today in order to get the BSN done now through...

  13. TEAS examination

    dorkalicious replied to ttt-n's topic in General Nursing

    I thought the practice exam was very similar to the test. If you are good academically, then this test is a breeze. Its a three hour test that only took me 40 minutes to finish. But if you aren't...

  14. Uniformed Services University??

    dorkalicious replied to 3dogs1cat's topic in Government, Military

    As soon as I read your post I did google it. Sounds interesting, not quite a commitment as the military, but still gets you involved with the government. Sounds like something I might be interested...

  15. TEAS examination

    dorkalicious replied to ttt-n's topic in General Nursing

    Almost not at all for Physics, and Chemistry is VERY baisc, more-so terminology than the formulas. Most of it was basic A&P and biology. If you feel comfortable in those areas then you should do...

  16. Uniformed Services University??

    dorkalicious replied to 3dogs1cat's topic in Government, Military

    Hmm, I am not familiar at all with the USPHS, that is outside of the 5 military branches I am familiar with. Do you know what field you are passionate in? Specializing as an NP there should suffice,...

  17. Uniformed Services University??

    dorkalicious replied to 3dogs1cat's topic in Government, Military

    You are right that you will be only paid as an O-1, but from what I understand you do not lose rank, just the pay for the timebeing. On the bright side, however, is that you do get your rank back...

  18. Army Nurse Corps - Airborne school?

    dorkalicious replied to forwaters's topic in Government, Military

    Ok, my husband and I just spent 8 years at Ft Bragg, home of the 82nd Airborne Division, so I think I can answer this question for you! It depends on where you are stationed now. If you are with a...

  19. Uniformed Services University??

    dorkalicious replied to 3dogs1cat's topic in Government, Military

    If you have the means to pay for it on your own, then do it! Although the CRNA progam is spectacular and rated among the top 5 in the nation for CRNA schools, the commitment you owe the military back...

  20. Joining the army to obtain my RN or BSN??

    dorkalicious replied to xstalkrx's topic in Government, Military

    I am a prior service Army Medic and my husband is still serving as a soldier. Going to school while being enlisted is not as easy as recruiters make it sound. It all depends on your chain of command...

  21. All About the NET

    dorkalicious replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Which study guide are you using? I went to the bookstore and bought Kaplan's NET study guide. That was really close to the NET test I thought, and I did exceptionally well (I just got my admittance...

  22. UMB Spring '09 applicants?

    dorkalicious replied to clhRN2b2010's topic in Maryland Nursing

    WAIT A SEC!!! Mine said the same thing for 2-3 weeks, but then a few days ago it changed to "Decision Made" "Admit-Institution" .... so do not worry, there is still a chance you will get in, because I...

    Hey Mia, I just got my acceptance letter into the Shady Grove campus as well. My name is Jasmine, please to meet you! I was soooo relieved to see the "admit-institution" on the online admissions site...

  24. TEAS examination

    dorkalicious replied to ttt-n's topic in General Nursing

    I took the TEAS test over the summer and it is quite frankly a piece of cake! It was so much easier than I imagined it to be. I purchased a Nurse Entrance Exam book to study for it and it was way...
