Hi everyone! I'm just wondering if anyone is going to Sierra College this Fall 2011? I posted a while back, before I got my acceptance letter, and didn't get any response. I hope to "meet" some of you before school starts! :-)

Hello Ifat- Well, first off, Congrats!!!! What happened? Did you just get an e-mail saying that they reconsidered and now you are in? Yes, orientation was very stressful and overwhelming, but you should feel better in a few days. :-) I am pretty ...

The test was hard b/c we haven't learned the information yet. The questions were worded like what you will see in the critical reading section. The questions were not content based on critical reading, but worded the way they teach you in that sect...

Yes, my brain hurts. LOL I feel like I am starting to confuse things that I knew before... I should probably just stop studying and take a break.. but I feel like I need to go over my flashcards at least one more time. Besides the "brain ache" do ...

Thank you, thank you Thank you! :-) I was starting to worry that I missed something.... So for Tuesday, yes, I will probably bring a lunch just in case we don't get a long lunch break. Good luck again!!!
tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
A lunch for tomorrow or a lunch for Tuesday? I thought tomorrow was just a half day? Either 8-12 or 1-4 depending on your group?? Do I have this wrong? I didn't plan on showing up until 1:00............

dia1010- I am also using the TEAS study guide from ATI. You can probably find a used copy on eBay for a decent price. Spring 11- Congrats on getting into the program! We are all in the same position about being nervous about the test. Like Stephan...

Oh my... I didn't realize we had to register for the TEAS?!?! I'm going to have to go back through the e-mails and figure it all out... I thought we paid for the test on Monday?.. Thank you for mentioning it!!! Ok... remember OIL RIG... oxidation i...
tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
I bet you will do great too!!! I really think the reason I did so well is because I took the test a few weeks ago.... As far as studying goes, I focused a lot on chemistry... I probably spent 5 days on it until I finally got it! LOL I'm strugglin...
tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
I did find OWL useful! What a great site! :-) Thank you. Other than the Kahn academy one, I'm not really using anything... just studying out of my old A&P book, micro, and chemistry books/notes. I kind of feel like it's all coming together, b...

tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
Thank you for the links Stephanie. I've been using the khanacademy one too. :-) I'll check out the OWL one now. When do you think you will take your next practice test?
tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
Hi Stephanie! Glad to hear you are able to get a lot of studying in! 76% on the practice test is great! :-) I also took another practice test the other day and got a 73%.... a little too close to the cut off for me! What is the web address of OW...

Hi Stephanie... I'm glad to hear that the onlone tests are harder! They were really tough... I've been going back through some of the info. that I missed and I think that will help. I don't have any suggestions for studying earth science, but I did...
tstic364 replied to tstic364's topic in California
Hi Stephanie... I would love to get together and study after I study a little more myself. I am more of an independent studier until I get my facts down. :-) I just took an online test from ATI yesterday and scored a 66%.... needless to say I am st...
Thank you all for your responses... I was/am (LOL) in a slight state of panic after taking that last practice test. I thought I was doing so well until I basically failed. I did fine on reading and Math, but totally failed the science and English. ...
