I was in the RN program before failing one of my classes by 2 points(73, need a 75) and was asked if I would like to go into the LPN program. I was very reluctant but I said YES. I am proud to say that I am now an LPN. I was speaking to one of my fel...
I would say yes. The reason being is because everyday they are changing the policies in what they (hospitals) want. I am in the State of Al and most hospitals want a nurse that has a BSN. You just have to now ask are you planning on being where yo...
Caliotter3...I did set a timetable but my timetable wasn't God's timetable. MY plans are not HIS plans and MY TIME is not HIS time. I am praying to him to show me the way. I jumped my happy go lucky self off into something I had no idea I wasn't r...
I just graduated from Nursing school in Dec. I was and still am excited about helping the sick and the well for that matter. So I pose this question to the ones that toot up their noses at us. If you or your loved one stopped breathing would it ma...
I've been going to school for almost 3 years straight. I completed my A&P I and II, MTH 100 and Micro all by the summer of 2010(went to school part-time). I went into the RN program in the Fall of 2010 and have been going non stop. Well in the...
When I applied I didn't see anything about a point system. I know Jeff State and Lawson State does the point system. I have looked in my nursing packet and there is nothing there about it. Sorry i couldn't be of more help. But I'll try to answer ...
I absolutely LOVED THIS...I am in my 2nd semester of Nursing school. I pray everyday that GOD keeps me humble and blesses me to give wonderful care to patients. EVERYONE knows that being a NURSE is NOT EASY!!! During my 1st set of clinicals last seme...
To my understanding Bevill looks at your the pre required courses you have left to complete(they all don't have to be completed but its best if they are), your GPA, and the TEAS score. Good Luck to You!!!
I have to say that I am the mother of 4. One in college and a 13,12, and 11 year old. I also work FT and attend school FT. I work at home for an ins co so I am able to split my days. however, I am still required to give them 40 hours per week. I...

I stopped taking it before Nursing school. With you being on those types of med you cannot just stop taking them. I agree with MOM-TO-BE that you should check with your school because they are different. I too had to get medical clearance but we h...
I would suggest read ahead and have a medical dictionary close by(PLEASE look up any words that you don't know!!!). Have yourself some highlighters, notetabs, and lots of index cards...READ!!! Be sure to have some excedrin migraine meds in your pu...

I am in ALA so I am sure that some things are different than other places. Before I started Nursing school(about to enter my 2nd semester) I was taking a prescribed medication that was still not allowed. I would suggest that you call the school and...

I am currently on the Sumiton campus. As far as the classes go you will need to make sure that you have your Anatomy and Math. There are a couple of people that took regular classes along with their regular classes but it just makes it a little mor...

Hi Alovejones. I am currently a second semester nursing student and I attend Bevill. Currently Bevill takes applications 2x's a year. Once or the Fall admission(I believe that is in April) and the LPN in the Spring. You can go to the www.bscc.edu...
This is my first semester @ Beville in Sumiton and I must say it is very tough. However, I am still working Full-Time. If I were not workng I don't believe it would be as tough but I have no choice. I have a family and have to work. I have heard ...
I don't remember any Geometry being on my test. I had things like decimals, fractions, addition/subtraction that sort of thing. I know you should study the proportions part of it and setting up word problems.. The test is not THAT bad but it was a...
I recently took the TEAS V and found it to be the same format as the Teas study guide. Everyone had a different test . I can only tell you that the difficult part for me was the science. I had maybe 5 questions that pertained to anatomy. The rest...

Thanks 2bNurseskip. Brighterfuture hang in there. Hopefully you will hear something back next week. Lawson really waited to late to send out acceptance letters. I really just wanted to get in somewhere and I did. I had 157 points and that made way fo...

I am attending another college for Nursing. But I just finished taking Micro at Lawson and to my understanding Jeff State and Lawson are using some of the same Nursing Books. Don't know if this helps but just thought you may want to know.

I have a friend that is about to go into her 4th semester @ the Sumiton campus and she LOVES it!! She is currently doing her clinicals at UAB and she said she still loves it. Hasn't had a problem yet. She did say it was a lot of hard work. She bas...
Futrern replied to brighterfuture's topic in Alabama
Hi all!! I received my acceptance letter from Lawson today for the LPN program and a regret letter from the RN program. Needless to say I was accepted into another RN program and am going with that one. I wish you all luck in your acceptance!!!

I was accepted to Sumiton as it was my 1st choice. I am not sure what my points were. Honestly, I just submitted my application and took the TEAS V a couple of weeks ago.
