  1. I still have to take micro before I start the second year of the program, so I will be taking it next summer quarter when I won't have any nursing classes going on.
  2. Official nursing student fall 2011 stand up!!!

    I start nursing school September 7! GPA last quarter was 4.0, but other than A&P 2 the classes were super easy, and I am sure that will not last in nursing school. LOL! I scored 89.4% on the Teas (version 4). Congrats to all the new nursing s...
  3. Teas test. how to prepare?

    I checked out the ATI book from my college's library and reviewed that. The one thing I found invaluable was the sticky thread on the TEAS test here on AN. I went through each posting and took notes on the things people talked about. I then looked...
  4. Teas 4 any help?

    I took the TEAS (version 4) last October and got an 89.4%. What I did to study for the exam was go through the thread here on All Nurses and look for things other people said to study that I had no idea (mainly science stuff including cloud formatio...
  5. What classes are you taking in the summer?

    I am taking Spanish for the healthcare worker, Public Speaking, and Pharmacology all online this summer. I only have micro to take before nursing school starts, but decided with all of my 4 kiddos sporting events during the summer I will have to cra...
  6. How did everyone do in your Spring classes?

    Haven't gotten grades yet as semester ends in 1 1/2 weeks, but I am holding all A's in Anatomy and Physiology 2, Nutrition, and Composition 2. Lets hope I can keep them. I am pretty sure I will be okay as I have grades in the high 90s in all 3 clas...
  7. Why do you want to be a nurse?

    Like others said, I think what you wrote was really good (possibly omitting the part about why you finished with a Speech Therapy degree). I think your story is unique and very inspiring. Good luck to you. I have always loved the healthcare field (...
  8. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    Application deadline at my school is June 1. I put my application in last week, and so the wait begins! Congrats to all those who already got it! Can't wait to find out!
  9. Spring 2011 Hopefuls!!

    Congrats NurturingSoul! Good luck! I am still waiting to hear from my school, but I am not holding out a lot of hope for this go around. I don't have A&P (extra credit points for admission), so that probably will come back to bite me. I am tak...
  10. Low GPA :(

    I think it totally depends on the program. In my area different schools do things differently. One school I looked at just added people to a wait list and you got in when there was an opening (LPN program has a 3 year wait list and RN program has a...
  11. Frustrated and Waiting

    I have not been where you are (I just applied for the first time and won't find anything out until the end of next month), but just wanted to say I feel for you! Sounds like you have a great attitude and are working hard. Keep up the hard work and ...
  12. Math/TEAS test

    I took the TEAS IV and the majority of the math wasn't very difficult just time consuming. The only time I almost ran out of time in the TEAS test was the math portion. I had 1 minute to spare at the end, because it is all done by hand w/ no calcul...
  13. A&P and Microbiology notes

    I am taking A&P 1 this quarter too! I had some of the notes downloaded already, but the rest are very much appreciated! I can't wait to take this class.....feels like I am actually getting to something useful and fun for a change! :) Thanks a...
  14. study guide for TEAS???

    I went to the library at my college and checked out the TEAS study guide for version 4. I was able to keep it for a month and used it to study. I also purchased the practice tests on ATI's website, which gave me a whole other set of questions to st...
  15. Next Semesters Schedule

    I haven't taken Biology since high school and was able to test out of it for college and I haven't taken Nutrition yet, but I have taken Human Growth and Psych. Both of those classes were fairly easy. I just took Human Growth last quarter on line a...
  16. TEAS Study Material

    I just went to my schools library and checked out the ATI TEAS study guide. I also went through the TEAS test thread and wrote down everything people said to study and Googled it to get a better understanding of what I needed to know. It worked wel...
  17. How are you going to spend your Thanksgiving break?

    Well, I finished up finals on Monday and have 1.5 weeks until the next quarter starts, so I am going to relax and spend some time w/ my family. I, too, took my preschooler to lunch the other day! I enjoyed it so much! Sometimes I get so caught up ...
  18. Help with General Chemistry

    Like someone else said, if you have specific things you are struggling with I would be glad to help. I just got out of Chemistry (I passed the class with a B....1 stinkin point from an A). I struggled a bit here and there, but basically got it! I...
  19. What does a pre-nursing student want for Xmas?

    I would love: Acceptance letter for my program (which are supposed to be delivered by the end of December). Barnes and Noble gift card to buy a book for fun reading (who knows when I will read it, but I LOVE to read). A stethoscope (I don't even know...
  20. What classes are you taking in the Spring?

    I am taking Anatomy and Physiology I, Information Systems, and Human Relations. I am really excited to Anatomy/Physiology. I have my book and have already been looking through it. I don't have to take a math class this quarter, for which I am infi...
  21. Is chemistry important to become a nurse?

    I don't know how important chemistry is in nursing, as I am not in nursing school YET! However, I am taking chemistry right now and it is really tough. We have a terrible instructor and everyone in the class is struggling. I had an A until last we...
  22. Too old to become a nurse? Need opinions

    Did you decide to become a medical transcriptionist? Just curious....I am a medical transcriptionist and am going back to school to be a nurse. I started my prereqs at the beginning of this year and have applied to a local CC for their ADN program....
  23. I have 4 kiddos (ages 12, 10, 7, and 4) and work full time. I am taking Chem, Human Growth and Development, and Algebra. I spend the most time on Chem. We don't have a great instructor and it is almost a self-study course. I spend probably 10-15 ...
  24. TEAS test...what's your experience?

    I got my score right away. I think there are some places that make you take the test on paper (not computerized testing) and they have to wait, but if you are taking it on the ATI website you will get the results immediately. J
  25. Studying for TEAS

    I didn't take the TEAS V, but TEAS IV and they would not allow me to use a calculator either. The math section took me the longest and I almost ran out of time. My one suggestion would be to practice (as the poster above said) with scratch paper wo...
