    Back at ya

    Elizabelle, yeah I've been reading those summaries too and trying to commit them to memory. But thanks for the reminder. What time do you have to pick the kids up? Maybe you can get them to bed early...

  3. TWU Spring 2010

    OK, can I just say one more thing? Thank God that there are students in this class who are actually in the program and don't have as much time to study as we do. I'm just hoping to stay above class...

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    OK, another rant. This one is the study guide. If you look at page 148, question 22. it says that the answer to what electrolyte change occurs in Addision disease is Hyperkalemia. OK, so I go back to...

    Elizabelle, I had that same rant (privately to my husband) about 2 days ago. Her notes are less than desirable. I have had to rewrite my own and that takes time. I've been at it already 5 hours today...

    Plasma, are you taking it at the Denton campus? I'm curious to know how you're finding the class. Is it just outrageously hard like Elizabelle, Goopsy and I are experiencing with the Parkland campus...

    Supersweet, thanks for the encouragement. And I know that what you're saying about getting the B being a good thing. I am that "A" student who apparently :) is having trouble letting go of being able...

  8. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    No, Elizabelle I'm right there with you. I feel like I understand the material but the questions that are asked in that study guide are obscenely detailed and in my opinion could only be answered if...

  9. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Right now I'm considering buying the online class ($60) to see if it can give me some insight into more of the questions that might be asked. I mean seriously $60 is nothing if I can just figure out...

    SuperSweet, you must have been the one that I remembered saying it was a hard class. Did you take it at TWU or somewhere

  11. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. Did someone once post on here that Patho was the hardest class that they had taken during their nursing school career? I swear I saw that somewhere. I sure hope so,...

    OK, I finally broke down and called to confirm. They do have my correct score. Yippeee. I wasn't going to until I had a dream last night that I wasn't accepted and the only thing that was wrong is...

    My thoughts

  14. RN or BSN

    butterfly journey replied to dreamer19's topic in General Nursing

    One more question for you, have you made sure that the community college you're interested in will let you take the courses in the evening and at your own pace? The ones where I'm located recommend...

    Congrats Rha Hea!! That's great

  16. RN or BSN

    butterfly journey replied to dreamer19's topic in General Nursing

    You should definately check out the BSN programs, because if you have all those other classes (i.e. gov't, stats, etc.) you would basically be going to the community college to complete the degree...

  17. RN or BSN

    butterfly journey replied to dreamer19's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know if you've checked into what the requirements are for getting into either program, but here's what my situation was. I had a BA and an MBA in another field. If I wanted to go to ADN route,...

  18. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hey girls, I did go to class today (although, some days I wonder why) and all we did was cover her notes on chpt 23 and 24. Nothing new for the test, exactly as she did last time. No little insight...

  19. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'd be interested to know how many people actually fall within the expected 3.8 - 3.9 and above GPA range. I know that at one point I was told that one semester they actually admitted a person with a...

  20. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Ditto what Supersweet said. God has a timing worked out just for you and you'll be just fine. BTW, I had heard from someone in the past the normal number of applicants for Dallas was around the 500 -...

  21. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hey ladies, I don't mind sharing my scores. I got an 89.4 on the Hesi, my GPA is 4.10 and the critical thinking was 850. I also took the NET test about a year ago and I made an 85 on the Reading...

  22. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Rha Hea, don't get discouraged. I know that having patience in a time like this is basically not possible, but try to find something else to focus on. Right now my focus is on my Patho class (if I...

  23. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's what I've heard too, I was told that my one of the counselors in the School of Nursing, so I assume that's probably close to when their expecting to mail out letter. But never give up hope, I...

    Not a word here either. I can't believe the end of October is coming up quicker and quicker every

  25. TWU Spring 2010

    butterfly journey replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Oh, I totally agree with you that it would be difficult to compete with those who are getting the DNP, but given that you could actually start practicing earlier and be "safe" from being required to...
