I know the feeling! I started my pre-reqs/college in the Fall of 2009, but I didn't really get serious about it until Spring 2011, and I started taking 16 he semesters to get them done! Don't despair;...
Yay! :) I have to apply by my school's September 1st deadline, and I should hear back from them by late October/early November! It seems so far away, but I know time will pass quickly, especially once...
This is hopefully my last semester before nursing school, and I'm just finishing up minor pre-reqs while I wait to hear if I'm accepted or not! I'll be taking: Comp II Computer Science Women's...

Ooh I LOVE Florida. Are you going to go to Disney World at all, or just the beach? :) I've been to Corpus a couple of times too, so I'm glad to be trying something else this time. Have fun on your...

Awesome, where are you going? I'm so excited; I leave for Galveston Saturday morning! I'll definitely start studying at least an hour a day, if not more. But yeah, one hour is better than

I scheduled my TEAS about a month ago for July 23, but now, after a busy month and barely being able to study, I think I may move the date back to sometime in the beginning of August. I'm nervous...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
I don't think August is too late. It only takes a couple of days for TWU to get the score, so you should be fine. My advisor told me that as long as we took it a week before the Sep. 1 deadline, we'd...

Welcome to the thread, Sandra! I'm pretty sure though that you won't be able to apply to begin the nursing program in Fall 2013 because you won't have COMPLETED your Spring 2013 semester by the time...

I don't believe that there are different teachers...I think they remain the same throughout semesters! But don't quote me on that because I'm not completely sure; I don't think you have to worry that...

At least you're only taking one more class with your pathophysiology! I'll be taking four other classes with it...but I'm not working so I should be fine. I heard it called "A&P on steroids" also,...

You'll need Pathophysiology: The Biologic Basis for Disease in Adults and Children, 6e. By Kathryn L. McCance. It's a black book with purple and lime green on the front!
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
I'm going to be taking it at the Denton campus because it's not my only class this fall, and as far as I know, everyone on here is also taking it at the Denton campus! I remember hearing that the...

Hi Ghosthunter! Welcome to the thread! :) You are correct, there is a separate application for the nursing program once you are accepted to TWU officially. If you declared your major as pre-nursing,...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
GREAT job on all your stats! I don't think you have anything to worry about! I have the ATI book and I'm finding it very useful...it's nice to hear that it prepared you SO well for the TEAS! I hope...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
You are correct :) You definitely don't need to take the class before you're accepted to the nursing program, but most students do because they've heard it makes the first semester a lot more bearable...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
Hi Rosa! Thanks :) I'm just glad that semester is done! I'm sure you'll do much better on the TEAS now that you've taken it once and know what the format will be like. I wish I'd taken it in January,...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
Unfortunately, I haven't taken all my classes at TWU. I'm a transfer student, and as of the end of this spring semester, I only have 29 credit hours at TWU. Since you need 32 to be eligible for the...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
Yeah I'm a student at TWU already, but I don't think that really makes too much of a difference. I'm just really worried about getting a high enough score on the TEAS! I've heard it's really hard. :-/...
ambrekai replied to ambrekai's topic in Texas Nursing
Now that the spring semester is over, and I officially know where I stand... Stats: GPA: 4.0 First Attempt Grades: all A's TEAS-V: ? I'll know when I take it in July?

Hi Mallory!! Isn't it awesome to be done with the pre-reqs?? It's such a load lifted off. :) At least that's how I feel. Welcome to the board, glad you're

Finals went super well, and I'm just SO excited I'm done with this semester! Finally, after two years, I have all my pre-reqs done for nursing school, wahoo!! I haven't applied yet to the nursing...

Congrats on finishing this semester! I'm almost done...only three finals left and my last one on Tuesday! :) I haven't begun to study for the TEAS yet, but I'm going to as soon as finals are over. As...
