  1. Risks of contracting diseases - studies, statistics, or evidence?

    tmarie posted a topic in General Students

    I did a search on the subject and found a few threads, but didn't really find the answer I'm looking for.... I have a certain family member who will not get off my back about the risk I will face of...

    tmarie posted a topic in General Nursing

    tmarie replied to lovesunshine's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm hoping to get accepted for Fall 2011 as well. Applications don't come out until February 1st. I will need to take the TEAS sometime between Feb 1st and March 1st (when the applications are due)....

  4. Possible to study for Teas for only 11 days and do Well?

    tmarie replied to MeowMix24's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  5. How competitive are CC's?

    tmarie replied to xInspiredx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. Grades... bad

    tmarie replied to AndyLorentz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is my understanding as well. I think I remember seeing that on the applications of both colleges I applied to when recently returning to college. I am in a similar boat - although my lovely...

  7. Are we a dime a dozen?

    tmarie replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know some programs do use interviews and/or essays as a part of the application process, but I'm glad that the community college I am attending doesn't. I went to a "pre-nursing advisement session"...

  8. How long did it take you to complete your prereqs?

    tmarie posted a topic in General Students

    Just curious... How long did it take you (or is it currently taking you) to finish all of your prereqs? I am so tempted to want to cram all of my prereqs into 3 semesters so I can apply for Fall 2011,...

  9. How long did it take you to complete your prereqs?

    tmarie replied to tmarie's topic in General Students

    I can really relate. I probably would have dropped one of these Summer classes if I could have. It didn't start feeling super overwhelming to me until just a couple days after the deadline for...

  10. Pre-Nursing Nurse Camp!!!!!

    tmarie replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that sounds awesome! And just for the record, I think even what you call your "lazy" writing is much more articulate than some of the posts I've seen around here that were written by much...

  11. MATH and trying to learn it

    tmarie replied to colton_waite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  15. What to do??

    tmarie replied to yisy4u's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am interested to read the responses you get.... I am in a similar predicament. I can get the prereqs done for my community college's ADN program by the end of Spring 2011, and will have the chance...

  16. omg I'm really worried now

    tmarie replied to supaflyz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Fortunately, my community college's ADN program admission is based on a points system, using only required prereqs and the TEAS: "Applicants accrue points based on the TEAS composite/reading score and...

  24. I really CANNOT believe it

    tmarie replied to 9livesRN's topic in General Students
