Hi everyone. First, the history: I'm 36, mother of 4 daughters (16, 9, and twins7) and I work full-time @ home processing sleep studies. With that being said, I've been attending the local community college (almost done with my 2nd qtr) and I'll be a...

Oh well...I didn't get in. It's okay though because I really figured my not having taken Math yet would be a negative. I'll try again next time.

I've just found out that notifications have been mailed & that we should know 'any day now'! I'm considering stalking my mailman!! Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I'll either not be accepted or be on the waiting list due to a math issue. Either wa...

Middle Georgia College....I should know in the next 2 weeks. If I survive that long!!

I am 37 with 4 kids and am finishing up with Micro this quarter. I was petrified as well because it had been so long since I was in school! Looks like everyone has given you GREAT advice because I did everything they said to get through my A&Ps. ...

I just took the HESIa2 this morning. My grades were all good expect Math! I don't have access to the cumulative grade yet, my these were my individual scores: Grammar 96 Reading 93 Vocab 88 Math 82. Does anyone know if they average scores li...

My point exactly! I feel 20 years older than I am because I work full-time and I'm a divorced mother of 4 daughters! I have to admit, my girls do help me study sometimes. I make flash cards & it's a hoot watching my 8 year old twins trying to pro...

Thanks everyone...I hate the 82 in Math, but I'm old & can't even begin to remember the last time I had to convert pints, oz, gallons, etc...!

No one here by that name! I've heard the TEAS & the NET are both more difficult than the HESI if it makes you feel better!

Thanks. They wouldn't give us a printout!

I'm curious if anyone has submitted a letter of reference with their nursing application and whether you thought it was helpful. I currently work for a well-known sleep lab and both the district manager (BA) and our medical director (he's a neurologi...

I started Micro this past Monday with one of my favorite teachers. We're using Microbiology: A Systems Approach. McGraw-Hill has an awesome website for their books! Online tests, animations, you name it...

Oh, that's good to know! I'll be sure to check before I send them.

Thanks guys. I thought it was odd that the 2 nursing programs that I'm applying to only have very simple applications so I guess I'll send my letters in after I complete the app!

I only have 2 schools near me that offer the ADN, so I'm applying to both of them this month. They both have pretty much the same pre-reqs, but both require different entrance exams.

I, too, would really appreciate the HESI a2 study guide!

I'm applying to two different schools which both offer the ADN. The problem is one requires the HESIa2 entrance exam and the other requires the NET. Any advice or study tips? Thanks!

Thank you SO much!!

I know exactly how you feel. My Dad is currently 62 and he was dx w-Alzheimer's at age 58. After becoming incontinent, his wife (my step-mom), decided she couldn't handle him anymore. I've had custody of him for 3 weeks now and we've been through 2 n...

I'm waiting on pins & needles for my final grade in A&PII. My instructor promised she'd have our final grades in this morning, but here it is 1:37pm & no grade! Anyway, up until now, I've had a 4.0, but I'm afraid I'm going to wind up wi...

Thanks! I was beginning to think I was the only one here who ever might've gotten a C. :) I finally got my grade though, and it was a solid B!! My 4.0 is gone, but I can live with a B!!

Although my A&P2 class doesn't start for a few more weeks, I'm all for this group! I too have a 4.0 so far, and I want to keep it that way! We'll be studying the same topics: Endocrine, Reproductive, Cardio, etc..., so I think we'll all be able t...

I just finished A&P1 and was disappointed because the labs were pretty boring...we didn't dissect anything! However, we had two lab practicals which counted as 30% of our final grade. Our first was on mainly on bones. My teacher had our lab set u...

Good luck with your program! I'd love to know what your first semester schedule is. I know at MCG, only one nursing course per semester is allowed. I live in Milledgeville so driving to either college would be about the same time/distance.

Thank you so much for the info! I have a friend who graduated from MSC this past May and said it was awful. She has a friend who is attending MGC and said it was so much better. See my confusion? I just finished up with A&P1 (4.0) and will be be...
