    mwski replied to oscarandmax's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  2. What does this mean??

    mwski replied to oscarandmax's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My results are also on "hold" and I am going crazy! A whole bunch of people who took the test the same day I did had their licenses posted on the BoN website at 9 am this morning. I can't decide if I...

    mwski replied to Iris34's topic in Psychiatric

    I started as a tech in a psych hospital while in nursing school, with every intention of going into perinatal when I was through with school. I graduated last week and accepted a job at the psych...

    mwski replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I didn't get anything in the mail. Email was the way they let us all know. And yes, they changed the status on the ADN website to something along the lines of "Letters of acceptance have been

  8. Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    mwski replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I had personal experience with one of the EVC instructors and didn't think I could withstand an entire semester of that again. Also, since I take the bus, getting to the EVC was also more complicated...

  9. Austin Community College (ACC) - Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    mwski replied to GeekGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    CEC doesn't have the same lecture schedule as EVC. I met a couple of students from EVC during my mental health rotation and it seems like our lectures made a little more sense...like we learned acid...

    mwski replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    We had to take Pharmacology as a pre-requisite to get into the program. So they assume that we already know the material. It was only over dosage calculations, nothing about specific drugs...thank...

    mwski replied to FilipinOOO's topic in Texas Nursing

    RaditionNurse2be and Purkinje~ I just started the ADN program this week and the classes you take in the Spring semester do not count in your Fall application. For example, this year the Fall 2009...

    mwski replied to FilipinOOO's topic in Texas Nursing

    I am taking speech, too. But not online. I looked up my professor on ratemyprofessor.com and he had horrible reviews so I dropped the online class and am taking a short semester M/W night class...

    mwski replied to beccabee's topic in Texas Nursing

    mwski replied to drawnfromlife7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with lunden. I can't say enough about my community college! Not only is it cheaper but the classes are smaller so you can really build relationships with the teachers and the other students....

    mwski replied to FilipinOOO's topic in Texas Nursing

    I agree with GeekGirl. I hadn't taken a science course in a very long time and never in college. When I got ready to take the Biology assessment test, I got a tutor which helped tons. But other than...
