2. Do nursing schools frown on repeat classes?

   Amaranthine replied to TexasNurse2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   It depends on the school. Where I'm at, they take every grade from a class that you've retaken into consideration. So, if you got a C in one class but retook it again and got an A it doesn't matter--...

3. I stink at peripheral pulses

   Amaranthine replied to queenjulie's topic in General Students

   I was having a hard time with brachial at first, so I had to get the teacher to help out a little. She told me if I was having a a hard time finding it I should hyperextend their arm a bit. Now I can...

4. Scrub sizes (pants)

   Amaranthine replied to Amaranthine's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

5. Scrub sizes (pants)

   Amaranthine posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

   I have to buy my uniform for school at the bookstore. I'm not sure what brand the scrubs are, but we aren't allowed to try them on before we buy... and I don't want to have to wait in line to return...

7. Littmann color question

   Amaranthine replied to Amaranthine's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

   Thank you for answering. :) I didn't really think about my uniform when I was looking at the colors. The green is just the one that looks nicest to me (green is my favorite color). That's why I also...

8. Littmann color question

   Amaranthine posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

   I'm getting a stethoscope for my first semester in nursing school. At first I thought about getting the pearl pink, but I don't think I want to stick out that much. The next best one (to me) is the...

10. TEAS question..Please answer

    Amaranthine replied to CRNBSN18's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was bad at math, but I made a little study guide from the TEAS book. I studied that and worked out problems for a while, and I ended up getting a 90% on the math section. I took version 5, so it may...

11. Anyone buy their own anatomy models?

    Amaranthine replied to pdxmomazon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually considered it, but a lot of them were really expensive. I didn't have time to go to open labs much at all and I still managed to make an A in both labs. Here's what I did- I made it ONE day...

    Maybe I was just freaking out a little because I was nervous... but everyone got their letter three days before I did and in those few days I thought that they had lost my application or I messed up...

    Amaranthine replied to Noel1221's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hopefully tomorrow I'll get my letter. A lot of people got theirs today and I'm so nervous! I think I will probably get in based on their scores/GPAs, but I don't want to get my hopes up... AHHH! I...

14. Pre-TEAS assessment vs. actual TEAS test

    Amaranthine replied to ChervRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Actually, for the version V at least, I was able to take each online practice test twice. The questions didn't change,

15. Lots of people changing their minds last minute

    Amaranthine replied to Tyra21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmmm... too bad many people don't know this. All I hear during class is "Oh we'll get jobs so quickly... blah blah blah shortage.... blah blah blah." Even two of my professors (micro and sociology)...
