  1. Spring 2013 El Centro College ADN

    Wyrm74 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas Nursing

    I got mine at the Denton County health office for $20. In fact, ALL the shots were $20 there and I had all of them done at DCHO. They pretty much don't check to see if you're a resident of Denton...

  2. Spring 2013 El Centro College ADN

    Wyrm74 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas Nursing

    Morgan if you just buy the Hesi study book you should do fine. I took mine at the El Centro Paramount building testing center. The A&P section is MUCH easier if you've taken 1 & 2 already....

  3. Spring 2013 El Centro College ADN

    Wyrm74 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas Nursing

    Those of you that still need shots, keep in mind that you can visit your local county health office and get them for about $20 per shot. They are much more than that at your primary care providers...

  4. Spring 2013 El Centro College ADN

    Wyrm74 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas Nursing

    MorganB, the Hep B vaccines take 6 months to complete and your application will not be accepted unless all your vaccinations are done, so you might want to get going on those! I suppose they could...

  5. Spring 2013 El Centro College ADN

    Wyrm74 replied to MorganB's topic in Texas Nursing

    HPRS 1204 is easy and also pretty fun. Nothing to worry about! I would go ahead and take stats this fall and get it out of the way so that you can proceed straight to your BSN after finishing your...

  6. Should I still pursue Nursing as a career even if I'm not excellent in math?

    Wyrm74 replied to brenay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The key to advanced math courses is to practice! I failed college algebra the first time through school. When I went back to school in 2010, I tested into beginning algebra. I didn't want to do it,...

  7. Anyone dealing with a discouraging advisor?

    Wyrm74 replied to SopranoKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do it IF you are willing to give up everything extra you love doing in lieu of study time. You will have absolutely no life, but you can do it. You must simply be more dedicated to your...

  8. Tarrant County Spring 2012 Applicants

    Wyrm74 replied to Student213's topic in Texas Nursing

    I thought that might be you! I had originally planned on just taking chemistry but that may be changing very soon. I may also take college algebra and an intro to nursing class at Northlake or El...

  9. Tarrant County Spring 2012 Applicants

    Wyrm74 replied to Student213's topic in Texas Nursing

    Manow - If you are who I think you are, we just had Microbiology together this past spring at TCCNE. I was the dude at the end of the first row. If that IS you, good luck! I won't be applying until...

  10. Chances of getting into TCC Nursing?

    Wyrm74 replied to emilia31's topic in Texas Nursing

    Word is they are only considering your science GPA these days, and yours is competetive so I wouldn't worry about your overall GPA. They don't take it into account. As long as you stay over 3.5 in...

  11. Tarrant County Spring 2012 Applicants

    Wyrm74 replied to Student213's topic in Texas Nursing

    I may be applying to the TCC nursing program in the spring for fall admission. That has been my plan all along, BUT I may have a lead on a part time job at an HCA hospital and that changes things....

  12. Anatomy & Physiology (1 and 2) + Microbiology = SUMMER

    Wyrm74 replied to nerfs-mode-on's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Slow down and take your time and you will learn more AND possibly even enjoy your classes! I absolutely loved A&P 1 & 2, but they will take over and dominate your life while you are in them....

  13. Anatomy & Physiology (1 and 2) + Microbiology = SUMMER

    Wyrm74 replied to nerfs-mode-on's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would NOT do that. I think you have grossly underestimated what it takes to make A's in those classes, and believe me...you want A's! You will be competing with other students that have 4.0 in the...

  14. To wait or not to wait...to try for our second child

    Wyrm74 replied to kjj007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would wait if it was

  15. "I didn't want to go into nursing because I didn't want to be labled gay"

    Wyrm74 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in Men in Nursing

    I'm a guy & have to admit that never even crossed my mind. I must not be up on gay

  16. Married Male Nursing Students

    Wyrm74 replied to exit96's topic in Male Nursing Students

    My wife is pretty cool about the whole thing, but I haven't started actual nursing school yet as I have 2 pre-reqs left to go. I'm wondering if things will be different when it's me, one other dude,...

  17. A "chick's" perspective on Men in Nursing

    Wyrm74 replied to KimmbaFNP's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Haha! Me too! Well, I'm married now so it doesn't make any difference, but it sure is an entertaining

  18. I am so disappointed in myself

    Wyrm74 replied to OBplease's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow! That must be some grading

  19. I am so disappointed in myself

    Wyrm74 replied to OBplease's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You know what they call a 100%? It's called an A. You know what they call an 89.5%? It's still an A. Don't worry about it. Just having an A in the class probably puts you in the top 10-15% in...
