  1. HESI A2 Quick Question

    Angsturdy replied to tmstar's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I personally would wait to take it, but had a friend who hadn't taken Anatomy and studied like a maniac and did surprisingly well. I would definitely use the study guide!! Just like the first poster...

  2. Low GPA? Is there hope??? YES! Read this! Possibilities attached!

    Angsturdy replied to Tela's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck to you Tela! I loved your post!! It was inspirational! I think so many students are in the same boat. I myself have had to overcome a not so impressive gpa....retaking some classes and...

  3. Not sure if I want to become a LVN+ bad A&P grade+ HESI test= confused!

    Angsturdy replied to techCNA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A&P requires quite a bit of study time. I think at some point, just about every pre-nursing student questions what they are doing and why. I have done this several times myself, but I just know...

  5. Low gpa, need other options if I don't get in the nursing program.

    Angsturdy replied to zoey09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. working full-time while attending nursing school

    Angsturdy replied to berryash's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Angsturdy replied to augajaro's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  8. Need help about OSU-OKC

    Angsturdy replied to none's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  9. OSUOKC 2012 spring hopefuls....when will we receive our letters?

    Angsturdy replied to Angsturdy's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I hope they do get them out soon. I know several people who said they got their letters sooner than 6 weeks but I'm sure it depends on how many apply every semester. You would think in this day and...

  11. Need help about OSU-OKC

    Angsturdy replied to none's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  13. Question for OSUOKC 2012 applicants....

    Angsturdy replied to Angsturdy's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    No, I haven't received a letter acknowledging my application. I don't think osuokc does that but i have read posts on here saying that occc does that. Sure would be nice to know they have reviewed it!...

  14. I am seriously looking at nursing. I have a long good/bad history with schooling

    Angsturdy replied to ThePhilster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Muniz, go to the school you are currently taking classes. I talked to the head registrar and she helped me so much. Maybe even talking with an advisor...either one can direct you. The forgiveness and...

  15. What to take with A&P 1 and 2?

    Angsturdy replied to kat444's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have always heard to take your sciences one at a time. At my school, they make them so hard its almost impossible to take with another science. I took anatomy (which we had to take anatomy and...

  16. I am seriously looking at nursing. I have a long good/bad history with schooling

    Angsturdy replied to ThePhilster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Muniz, I would have a meeting with an academic advisor. I was able to do academic forgiveness and a semester reprieve which helped my GPA a ton! My first time in college I didn't take too seriously....

  17. I am seriously looking at nursing. I have a long good/bad history with schooling

    Angsturdy replied to ThePhilster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ThePhilster...academic forgiveness is your best friend. At my school, I was able to retake a few classes that go towards the prereqs in the nursing program. Also, you might find out about a semester...

  21. Kind of Bummed

    Angsturdy replied to kingdave's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In my Anatomy class, my prof told us the first day that his class required a minimum of 8 hrs of study time a week. I got really stressed about it but I put in the time and did well. You've gotten...

  22. Need help about OSU-OKC

    Angsturdy replied to none's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Angsturdy replied to none's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  25. HESI Study Guides

    Angsturdy replied to EMarieTX's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck taking the HESI. I took it last month. I think the Evolve study guide only really helps with the math, vocab, and reading. I didn't feel like it helped me much with chem, anatomy, or...
