    Practice Teas Test

    Anoetos replied to Avary's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it on Saturday, Dec. 5. It was not anything like as bad as I thought it would be. I never took the practice test but I did buy the study manual which helped. I had the advantage of being in and...

    Teas Test Skills Tips Please

    Anoetos replied to QUIEROSERNURSE's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A lot of the science is sort of common sense if you can reason your way through it but there does seem to be a very wide variety of subject matter from anatomy to chemiztry to biology to whatever the...

    Davenport University

    Anoetos replied to persephone162's topic in Michigan Nursing

    There are no prerequisites for the BSN program at Davenport Warren beyond the TEAS, an essay, two recommendations and a good GPA in math and science. The material says you must carry a 3.0 but my...

    Unprofessional School Orientation

    Anoetos replied to Dakovich's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, one of the things that separates the mature student from the immature is knowing how to pick ones battles, but I am sure you know that. It's difficult to know what was going on for these people....

    GPA requirements for nursing school

    Anoetos replied to trish79's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    YSU, is that Youngstown State? I think every school is different. I know that here in the Detroit area, many programs aren't taking anyone under 3.5 and I have heard that Wayne State is not taking...

    Gay male nurse stereotype?

    Anoetos replied to greygooseuria's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Exactly... I could really care less if someone thinks I'm gay. Anyway, personal experience pretty much defeats the stereotype anyway. There may have been a time when nursing was, for men, like the...

    I am currently taking my prereqs at Davenport Warren and am very sorry to hear about anyone's bad experiences. Mine have been nothing but positive but then, school is like life, you get out of it what...

    Hollywood's Portrayal of Male Nurses?

    Anoetos replied to GiveMeFeedBack's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I would like to see a television program which features a normal male nurse: not necessarily gay, most likely a dad, committed to his profession, caring, efficient and a leader, etc. Still

    Nursing as a second career...am I doomed

    Anoetos replied to TryingToFindAWay's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Yes, exceptional grades in pre-reqs and testing can overcome a lot of bad history. I am a GED guy, case in point. Also, if your school is like mine, you get the "testicle curve" which helps

    Age Issues and The Modern Male Nurse

    Anoetos replied to Rocky09's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I hope you're not insane, because if you are it probably means I am too. I am not sure what I'll be doing after I get my BSN, not sure if I'll go on to NP or not; probably not, but I'm 44 and just...

    Gay male nurse stereotype?

    Anoetos replied to greygooseuria's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I have no problem with that. The remark came out of a discussion on male nurse stereotypes and it was mentioned that they nearly all devolve upon the identification of the role as feminine. Which...

    Gay male nurse stereotype?

    Anoetos replied to greygooseuria's topic in Male Nursing Students

    This is a very interesting subject to someone who is just beginning the journey to become a nurse. I was speaking with someone recently who floated the idea that the name for the profession should be...

    I would like to be a nurse

    Anoetos posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I lost my job of ten years in March so I decided it was time for a change and was accepted into the pre-health care program which will, hopefully end in an RN licensure. I'm male which probably puts...

    I would like to be a nurse

    Anoetos replied to Anoetos's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks very much for your response, I appreciate it a lot. Naw, the cake or pie thing was just a facetious question about which anyone preferred, you know, in keeping with the (fallacious) assumption...
