OMG I failed the TEAS today!!! I'm so depressed and everyone keeps telling me so you can take it again. That's not the point I failed this time and I feel like a BIG FAILURE!!! I've never failed a test before. Go figure I fail one so important!! My...

Hi everyone I'm in my 3rd semester of nursing school and have 1 more left to graduate. Tonight we had are 2nd test in med surg and I failed. This is the 1st test that I have failed in nursing school and I'm so upset I cant stop crying and I'm so afra...

Thank you I'm feeling more positive today now that the initial shock and upset have worn off. My school doesn't give quizzes or any extra credit/points except for 1 point on a proctored ati so I'm just going to have to work extra hard to make sure I ...

Cleaning up urine, feces, vomit, and giving sponge baths are about the only things a RN nursing student does on a regular basis at clinical. At my school your only allowed to do anything neat (administer meds, cath a pt.) with your clinical instruct...

I just finished my first semester of nursing school and will be entering my second semester in the Fall. My best advice to you would be to just relax and enjoy the time you have left before school starts. Being a nursing student is by far the harde...

If you really want it, go for it! I go to school and I have four daughters 9 and under. Yes, you will have to sacrifice time with your child, but why don't you try to take night classes for your remaining pre-req's, or even online classes? If your ...

Any waiting or have waited to get accepted into Ocean County College nursing program? How long have or did you wait? I've been waiting 1 semester, I have a feeling I will be waiting again next semester!

I called the school today and they said that letters have been sent out for Fall 2012 and according to my date of completion, I'm not getting in. The lady said that they only made it up to the date of completion of may 2011 and my date of completion...

Thanks everyone, I'm not sure when I will know whether or not I'm in. The admissions office said to give a call mid next week to make sure that they received my transcripts (my school mails the instead of faxing). She also said that once they had t...

Well just an update, I just applied to a 4 year University yesterday for the Fall 2012 semester!!!! I'm really excited, the lady that I spoke to in the nursing department told me that there is still openings and with my gpa I should have no problem g...

The wait is horrendous, there is no nice way of putting it!!!!! But, if going to nursing school is something that your passionate about then it's worth the wait! I'm waiting to, at my school once you finish all you have to, there is a 2-3 semester w...

Hi everyone, after having to time to process that I didn't get in this time around, I feel okay about it. I know some of you are confused about what a date of completion is, so I will tell you. Here in NJ at the CC that I attened, you have to take ...

Thanks, I hope so. I'm so tired of waiting, its so frustrating!

I'm still awaiting my acceptance letter into my school's nursing program and the majority of the time, I'm so excited about becoming a nurse and can't wait to start school. But, every once and awhile I second guess my decision about going to nursing...

Thanks everyone, it helps to know that I'm not the only one who second guesses themselves!!!!

Oh boy can I sympathize with you! I finished all my pre-reqs last semester and now I'm just waiting for a spot in the nursing program which is a 2-3 semester wait !!!! Anyways, I too made great grades in all my classes a and b's, I also made the dea...

I know after realizing just how long it was going to take me to get my associates I looked into transferring to a university, but they want to you to start all over and take all your pre-reqs with them. I'm just going to have to wait it out and stic...

Thank you, congratulations on being accepted!!!!! I think most of the time my second guessing going to nursing school has to do with the wait to get in and the fear if I can hack it once I'm in. I don't currently work, but I'm married with four sma...

I went the route of community college and while awaiting my acceptance, I have been taking pre-reqs towards my bsn. The wait is killer!!!!!! Good luck!

Sorry you didn't get in. Don't give up, keep trying!

As long as you pass all your pre-reqs and pass the teas test, all you have to do is wait for a spot to open. According to the school, they admit students into the program by their date of completion, meaning that when you pass the pre-req's and teas...

I'm in the same boat too!!!! My school said that letters for Fall 2012 will be going out the end of April and I have been checking the mail religiously every day for about 2 weeks!!!!! lol If I don't get in this semester and I'm still on the wait lis...

The CC that I attend has a 2-3 semester wait list once you have finished all pre-req's and have passed the teas test. The wait is like torture, all I keep thinking is I could be taking nursing classes right now, but I'm not. Instead of doing nothin...

Thank you! I would think about going to OCC if I were you 2- 3 semesters isn't bad at all, I'm just an impatient person!

At my school you have to take A&P 1 and 2 before you can take microbiology; I never heard of taking them together. I imagine that it wouldn't be fun. Good luck!!!!!
