  1. South College - Asheville, NC?

    Hey Everyone! I just finished my pre-req's w/my local community college and I'm looking @ putting some apps at some of the colleges in my area (I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket). I saw that South College has a nursing program, but t...
  2. TEAS in 5 Days!

    If I had a short amount of time to study, I would first do one of the practice TEAS tests online -available via ATI testing . Then i'd focus on my weak points. HTH :). GL
  3. Has anyone gotten into a program with a C in Chemistry?

    Yep, I just got into the ADN program starting this fall with a "C" in chemistry. What helped me were my higher grades in my A&P, Eng, Math, GPA, Teas score, etc. So, with all that being said, I wouldn't let that Chem score hinder you. :). GL.
  4. Im keeping quiet on my decision

    There isn't anything to be ashamed of. Becoming a nurse at any age, regardless, is an accomplishment to be proud of. Congratulations :)

  6. How hard is the new NCLEX 2013 Test Plan

    I took my NCLEX today and it cut me off at minimum. I had a lot (stressing a lot) of SATA , a few drag and drops, scenerios, some conference q's, and a lot of delegations and priorities. There were no math questions and I felt that my test touched ...

  9. Hey Lachell, Would you be up for taking A&P online w/another NC community college? I took mine with Stanly CC and really loved my teacher. I know you said close, but I just wanted to give you another option. To look up online transferable cla...
  10. Nursing Schools in North Carolina

    Hey there! I lived in Fayetteville, NC and they have a great school thats off bragg blvd (goes towards Ft. Bragg) - it is called Fayetteville Technical community college. If you lived on Bragg, it wouldn't take you maybe 10 minutes to get there. If...
  11. Nursing with cancer

    I have a friends with thyroid cancer and she was accepted into a nursing program @ our local community college. She did decline because of how the treatments were affecting her. Take care.
  12. Any programs near Asheville, NC

    AB tech has a great program, as they partner with WCU to complete the program with a BSN if you want to go that route or you could just complete the associates program. There is the community college in Waynesville too that I've heard is a great sch...
  13. 54 year old sahm, am I nuts to think I want this?

    My boss from my prior job just graduated as an LPN, and she is in her mid-50's. If she can do it, so can you :) GL
  14. South College - Asheville, NC?

    Hey Jazzy, I agree, encouragement is always appreciated. One of the best things they told us @ SC (during the nursing seminar) was we should look @ each other as future classmates and not as competition. My girlfriend is wanting to take the EMS/T pr...
  15. Question about the TEAS Exam/study guide.....

    I got my ATI study guide off Craigslist for 20.00 ..maybe check there too. I think it is 35.00 on ATI's site. HTH
  16. PSB RN Test

    Hey JL, I am so sorry to hear that . I felt the same when I didn't make the TEAS. When I studied, I really only focused on the math and chemistry since they had been my harder subjects. With the english and reading comp, I just kind of blew it of...
  17. South College - Asheville, NC?

    Hey Jazzy, I completely forgot about this post, lol :). I went up to visit SC because they refuse to do any inquiries over the phone and met with an advisor with my transcript, then met the nursing director as well. They all gave me their sales pi...
  18. PSB RN Test

    Thanks for all info. I'm glad you said that about the Peterson book. I was starting to really worry that this was going to be harder then the Teas, lol. Were there any terribly difficult questions that come to mind? How aweful that it is mixed a...
  19. Study Guide for Teas Test!!! Please!!!

    Check out craigslist too, I bought ATI Teas guide V last semester used for 20.00 and it looked like it was never used! Save some $$ ..i'm a sthm so buying books for a 1x test doesn't make much sense to me. Good luck to you!
  20. Hey there! If I can't find a great deal at Amazon or ebay, i.e used, etc. I found that if you go to the company that prints/distributes the book and look at other options for purchasing their books you can save some $$ with them too. For this seme...

    Hey there Jlpsu! Ok i'm gonna sound stupid asking but ....... was it easier then you thought or harder? Study tips? What were the questions like? Did you find out your score immediately? I see a lot on the TEAS but barely anything on the PSB...So ...
  22. Last Minute Advice On the Teas V

    Hey there Jackie.. I would say get plenty of sleep and a good breakfast. On the test, take your time and don't let your nerves get the better of you. Read the questions thoroughly. Also on the math, the questions are not what I'd deem as difficu...
  23. Is she jelousy or what

    Hey there! I feel your pain. I got waitlisted into never neverland for my school of choice ( there is only 1 community college in 4 counties) and I decided to apply to a private college about an hour away. My reason was similar to yours and as an ...
  24. PSB RN Test

    Are there any study manuals out there for the PSB RN? (beyond what is on their website). Anything else that you'd offer up study wise? Sorry to jump your thread, lol, but I had posted this on another part of allnurses and no one responded. :)
