  1. Human Anat & Phys 1 and 2 in the same semester online

    A & P I is loads of memorization. I have been told that nationally, 60% of students who take it for the first time do not pass it. I can't imagine doing A&P I and II in the same semester...
  2. A&P Textbook

    Saladin's Unity of Form and Function, 5th edition but can also use the 4th because they are pretty much the same. The pink study guide for that seems like it's not even written for that text. It...
  3. Sharon Regional 2010 - Who's accepted? Still waiting?

    Okay, now that I received my rejection letter, I am free to speak freely. Here's my opinion of that school: Sh*t, and I'd already decided that before I ever interviewed. First, location is...
  4. HESI test questions help for nursing acceptance in program

    I took the HESI pre-entrance exam at two different schools. The A&P and chemistry were harder at the second school than the first. One school had me log on to the Evolve Reach site and take that...
  5. Why Are So Many Students Worried About Expensive Tuition

    Insane to me, too. I'd rather have $100k in my bank account that owe someone $100k, lol! So, you like being a nurse, then decide to go on to med school. I'd wager that $100k debt load could be a...
  6. Why Are So Many Students Worried About Expensive Tuition

    Schools never used to lock it in for more than the first year. I'd imagine that you could contest that if you an adult dislocated worker over age 22. If you are unemployed, and you move for...
  7. Why Are So Many Students Worried About Expensive Tuition

    If you can "pay as you go" for your education, and not wind up owing any or much money, you'll be better off. If your parents set aside $75,000 for your education and you can get that education for...
  8. HESI test questions help for nursing acceptance in program

    Search my posts back to early aMarch or late Feb re. HESI, PAX, and TEAS. I listed what I studied from and some of the odder questions. There was no Physics section in either of the HESIs I took....
  9. NLN Pre entrance exam- Driving me nuts

    quizlet.com and type in hesi or hesi a-2 for flash cards that include A&P. All these tests are pretty much the same material. There are a few other threads going on this topic. Before I took the...
  10. Need HELP with HESI study guide

    quizlet.com and type in hesi or hesi a-2 for flash cards I posted my experiences with the test (and NLN PAX) and what study guides I used. Search for my previous posts. I can't take time right
  11. HESI

    I listed some online resources and also my experiences with the HESI pre-entrance exam. The schools can customize that test to some extend. I took it at two different schools and scored in the '90s...
  12. NLN Pre entrance exam- Driving me nuts

    I can't take time to search my posts, but search for HESI, TEAS, and PAX posts that I made here. I listed the study materials that I used. This is the NLN PAX, right? I got a 99 on it. English,...
  13. Fall 2010 applicants for ccac

    This might be true about CCAC, lol. I am finding I have better success with the more rural locations. And/or the private schools that have higher price tags -- they are having problems filling those...
  14. UPMC McKeesport School of Nursing LPN program

    Lawrence (PA) county vo-tech quotes $15 to $22 for the Penn-Ohio area. The Pittsburgh region may go higher than that, say up to $25/hr for LPN, but the $25 might be a per-diem or otherwise part-time...
  15. NLN PAX-PN entrance exam

    I got my scores letter today. I got a 99, which the school said is "the highest you can get." verbal = 59 of 60 math = 30 of 40 (Rolled in there after a 2.5hr drive with a 5AM departure....
  16. What did you do when you got rejected?

    If rejected for RN, I will go to LPN instead. They all want me, lol. But so far, I have been rejected for clerical reasons, at three RN programs: 1. App incomplete due to lack of PAX result b/c the...
  17. TEAS test question...

    From something I read in another thread, the TEAS V might not have the science. So don't get that guide unless you verify that it does cover the
  18. TEAS test question...

    for science, from another TEAS thread on here: see the sample tests here: http://www.testprepreview.com/teas_practice.htmSearch and read up on all the discussions here on the TEAS exam. There are...
  19. If you can get the ADRN in less than 2 years definitely do it and go to BSRN later. But if it's going to take you 3 more yrs to do ADRN, then forget that and do BSRN now. Many hospitals seem to only...
  20. I fainted today in the ICU!

    Vasovagal syncope: What advice do y'all give for controlling it once your feel it starting? I'm just curious whether or not there are tricks you can use to steer yourself out of it. I don't think...
  21. Mercy College of NW Ohio ADRN ?

    Thanks for all the info! I didn't know that Mercy program existed until Jan of this year, too late to apply for fall 2010. I'll look into it, in case the fall 2010 plans fall through. Everything I...
  22. Fall 2010 applicants for ccac

    Oh, and another thing with that PAX: The testing company closes out the classes 2 weeks in advance, full or not. There's no flex in that. And that rule about 6 month wait before you repeat the...
  23. Fall 2010 applicants for ccac

    Just what is a drug calc seminar? I tried to apply to CCAC ADRN from 75 miles away, and they put so many d*** stumbling blocks in my path that I blew CCAC off as a possibility for Fall 2010. The...
  24. Any CCBC nursing students here? Questions about program.

    Sorry, but I didn't ask about clinicals location and schedule b/c my immediate goal is to just get some RN program to say yes. I have no roots here, no kids, sold my house, set aside money so I don't...
  25. TEAS vs. TABE / NLN PAX???

    Hey. Nori. I took a TABE for worker retraining eligibility, another version of TABE for LPN, and also took PAX and HESI for RN admissions. Another LPN scvhool here uses Wrok Keys, and I don't know...
