  2. Question About Scratch Paper

    xInspiredx replied to xInspiredx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    ^Thank you for the replies! I was just wondering, because I noticed some math on the reading section. I remember taking a test once (maybe the pre-SAT's or even the SAT's) where they only gave you...

  3. What does volunteering at a Hospital get you?

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

    How many hours per week are they requiring? The hospitals that I have looked into all require anywhere between 2-4 hours per week. Volunteering just makes your resume look good, basically. It can...

    .15 x .52 -------- 30 + 750 -------- 780 ^Again, it's the same concept: since you need to move 4 decimal points to the left and there are only 3 numbers, you have to add a 0 before the 7....

    experience Take a CNA course to get experience in the field. This will show the admission committees that you actually have an interest. Also, this is a good way to get letters of recommendations, as...

  10. Advice for maintaining a 4.0 taking an 18 credit course load while working?

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

    I think that it will be challenging to ace all of those classes with a job on top of it all. Perhaps you should wait until taking A&P, since biology will help you with that class. I personally...

  11. Nursing school student loans/scholarships/grants for those with a bachelor's degree.

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

    In my opinion, I think that you should go the ADN route. I say this due to the fact that you already have so many loans taken out. Going to a community college is much cheaper, and some states offer a...

  13. Does being fluent=reading, writing, AND speaking?

    xInspiredx posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    1) I know that some schools will give an applicant extra points if they are fluent in another language, but does this mean reading, writing, and speaking? What if I am only able to speak the language?...

  15. Role of Religion in Religious Nursing Schools

    xInspiredx posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For the nursing schools that are Catholic and Christian, how much is religion emphasized in the curriculum? Even though I am neither of those religions, I don't want to limit my options. I know it...

  16. I caught a cheating classmate

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

    I wouldn't really risk it during the exam, because as some people have already mentioned, it could disrupt other students & it could question whether or not you were cheating (by looking around)....

  17. specialty with lowest turnover rate?

    xInspiredx replied to thekid's topic in General Nursing

    I volunteered in the L&D department, and really loved it. Also, all of the nurses that I talked to absolutely loved their job.

  18. specialty with lowest turnover rate?

    xInspiredx replied to thekid's topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone found any recent statistics? I haven't been able to find anything substantial. It seems to me that pediatrics would have the lowest turnover rate, or possibly L&D. I'm just curious to...

  19. Why is LTC so hated

    xInspiredx replied to MadameFreckles's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    1) Is anyone a LTC nurse who takes care of less than 10 patients? 2) Is the situation worse in for-profit LTC facilities vs. non-profit ones? (By writing "situation", I mean lack of supplies, taking...

  21. Is chemistry hard?

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

    Chemistry was easier than organic chemistry and biochemistry, so for me, I don't think it's difficult. The key is to do as many practice problems as you can, and to take advantage of all of the...

  22. Good reasons for re-taking a course. Any suggestions?

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

  24. I could really use some advice and opinions

    xInspiredx replied to mandie77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would wait the two years to go to the school that will re-start your GPA. If you continue with your GPA now, it will probably take you the same amount to raise it to a competitive level. Plus, you...
