  1. Phi Theta Kappa - Haven't we all been invited?

    Hobbes02 replied to SDChargersGirl#31's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Interesting.. I got the offer to join in the mail immediately after I was accepted to the school and declared pre-nursing as my major. I hadn't even taken any classes at the school though, so I didn't...

  2. I need your advice on the TEAS test!

    Hobbes02 replied to smiling247's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    good

  3. anybody from SOUTHERN?

    Hobbes02 replied to fd11's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Yeah it's a standardized test that a lot of schools use as part of the criteria for entrance into the nursing program. If you go into the pre-nursing student forum there are tons of threads on it...

  4. low teas score

    Hobbes02 replied to krob84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's very odd.. there's no way a 'national average' should be going up 10 percent over the course of one week. There are probably hundreds of thousands of people taking this exam across the country,...

  5. Intro Chemistry for TEAS/Nursing??

    Hobbes02 replied to snappycindy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm also a little surprised that they don't require at least a basic Chem class for the nursing program; the school I applied to requires both Basic Chem and Organic Chem.. Anyway, I think you can do...

  6. low teas score

    Hobbes02 replied to krob84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How are your prereqs going? If you still have a bunch to do, don't even worry about it. Just keep taking them and apply again next time around with a new TEAS score. If you're just about done with...

  7. teas scores

    Hobbes02 replied to RN-nt-training's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well going by the limited numbers, 40/150 is 26% and with you being in the 27th percentile, it's going to be close. But there are usually many other things they take into consideration so you really...

  8. low teas score

    Hobbes02 replied to krob84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    3.7 is a solid GPA.. Will the school allow you to retake the TEAS again? If they do, I would buy the TEAS guide and study it over and over. And when you're done, study it some more! Then retake the...

  9. teas scores

    Hobbes02 replied to RN-nt-training's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you applying to a CC or a University? I applied to a 4yr University and I was told that anything from a 70-80 is considered 'average' while a score of 80-90 would be 'competitive.' Though from...

  10. Order/Combination of classes

    Hobbes02 replied to SerenePeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If it were my schedule to make, I'd take A&P with Nutrition, then Chemistry with Sociology. A&P and Chem are going to be the 2 toughest ones so I'd definitely split them up. They should't be...

  11. Practice Teas Test

    Hobbes02 replied to Avary's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've said it before as well, and I'm sickened by the number of people seemingly looking for handouts on here. PM me this, PM me that. The ATI study guide is all you really need. It may be a bit...

  12. Anyone else pinning all hope on getting accepted to ONE program?

    Hobbes02 replied to nursing8648's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Same here.. only one application, but I like my

  13. TEAS grades ---Question----

    Hobbes02 replied to friendlysmile's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While it looks really good to me, only your school will be able to tell you if it's good enough to get in. Every program is different and some are much more competitive than others. Your in the 95th...

  14. Scored low on Exam

    Hobbes02 replied to my4helpers's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Really, you did all this and you still didn't do well? This is what I do and it is what I was going to suggest. The only thing I do differently is that I don't take notes during the lecture. I write...

  15. Question to Bristol Community College Nursing Applicants

    Hobbes02 replied to nursein2012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Only 3 pre-reqs? Consider yourself lucky! Our school has 11 pre-reqs, and 7 of the 11 have to be done before you can even submit your application. And the other 4 must be completed before you can...

  16. anybody from SOUTHERN?

    Hobbes02 replied to fd11's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Your application to the school has to be submitted by September 1st, and then your ACE application to the Nursing program has to be submitted by January 15th. Those were the dates for this year and I...

  17. Anyone Still Waiting to Hear?

    Hobbes02 replied to Buckeyefan47's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yup, I'm waiting as well. February 1st was the last day for applications, but letters don't get mailed until the first week of April. Waiting sucks! Do you guys know what the acceptance rate for your...

  18. anybody from SOUTHERN?

    Hobbes02 replied to fd11's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Good luck with the accelerated program. I know of two other people who also are also trying to get in and I heard that they only take 26 or something like that. It's a low number whatever it is. You...

  19. anybody from SOUTHERN?

    Hobbes02 replied to fd11's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I also just applied for the Fall semester, I'll let you know how it goes! Any other SCSU applicants

  20. Taking A & P without previous biology experience

    Hobbes02 replied to SerenePeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A lot of it I'm sure has to do with your teacher and what their expectations are from the class. However, I still think you'll be alright as long as you have good study habits and can pick up on ideas...

  21. A&P 1 over the summer in a month??

    Hobbes02 replied to Restoration's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is good information. I'm currently taking Microbiology over intersession right now and it's intense to say the least! It's 4 months of information crammed into 3 weeks, 11 days total. We have 6...

  22. A&P 1: Need Some Help

    Hobbes02 replied to emt3352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why not just post the questions

  23. What kind of pen do you use for your flash cards?

    Hobbes02 replied to Elizabeth K.'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I prefer the Pilot Precise V5 which is a .5mm that I use for both notes and note cards. The G2 is a great pen, but it's a little bulky for my

  24. Practice Teas Test

    Hobbes02 replied to Avary's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think this is worth quoting again because you guys seem to be stressing out waay too much. IMO it's fairly easy to do well on this exam. Buy the guide/tests combo as Nala says and study the book as...

  25. Math and verbal on Teas test?

    Hobbes02 replied to Remilekun's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's mostly grammatical errors in paragraph form, but there were several questions on spelling as well. Go through the section on commonly misspelled words and you'll be fine. As far as the math goes,...
