  1. Breastfeeding/pumping and 1st yr nursing school

    I wanted to suggest seeking out a lactation room at the hospital. Often they have pumps there, you just bring your own parts which would be way more efficient than toting your own pump. I also just...
  2. school,work,child

    Like pp said it depends on your support system and also on how much you are working. I work 40+ hours and am taking ap2 and stats (7 credit hours). It's a LOT and feel like I study nonstop. I have a...
  3. How to make an A in a&p1?

    One thing I have done that has helped me a TON is buying a lecture recording app for my phone. (I use super note but I'm sure there are a ton out there). Each chapter I write a study guide for the...
  4. Rejection letters

    Do you know WHY you didn't get in? Because I think that matters a great deal. If you have Cs in pre-requisite classes, you might consider retaking them. Bad entry test score? Low interview score?...
  5. TEAS V hard?

  6. TEAS V hard?

    Yes the sitting killed me!! I had to get up to stretch lol I found the ATI study guide and the book "5 teas tests" very helpful. I had also bought the 2 online tests when they were offering a good...
  7. TEAS V hard?

    Do you need to score a minimum score on it to get into your program or are you going for a super competitive program that uses it for ranking purposes?? If it's the latter, then take it very...
  8. UNF {University of North Florida} taking the TEAS V

    I also recommend the ATI online tests. They give a good idea of the question structure and general test layout. Just know they are notoriously harder than the actual test. I scored way better on the...

  11. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    Great resource, thanks!! That was more what I meant by what they were looking for/at during interviews. I'm familiar w the scoring for the rest of the process (maybe obsessive is a better word lol)...
  12. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    This is crazy to me!! Wonder what the heck they are looking for?! Sorry that stinks. And I am pretty sure I read they don't reveal wait list
  13. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    Thanks! And YIKES to the short skirts!! I don't get that
  14. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    Congrats to those accepted and I'm sorry for those of you not. Everyone's stats seem really good so I am surprised not everyone is in! (This also makes me nervous for the fall!!) Can I ask a random...
  15. BSN hopeful... USF, UNF, UCF, FAU...

    One thing to think about - if you are receiving financial aid, once you get that degree, you are often less eligible for certain types of aid. So it may be to your benefit to take a semester off or...
  16. BSN hopeful... USF, UNF, UCF, FAU...

    Have you done research on the programs you are interested in? I know for some, you have to have a certain baseline GPA but then in a handful of specific classes (AP1, AP2, etc etc) those are the...
  17. TEAS V Strategy

    I took my test today. I scored MUCH better than on the practice tests, thank god. I agree with the advice to relax. I found myself starting to freak out a little bit especially on the math. At home I...
  18. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    What kind of questions did the applicants ask when it was their turn to ask?! Good luck everyone!! I'm taking notes for fall
  19. Please help me! Applying to UNF Nursing

    Well, first of all, your AA and the classes you have taken so far are for sure not "wasted"!!! Education is never a waste :) UNF program is super competitive. Have you looked at the pre-requisite list...
  20. TEAS V Strategy

    Congrats on an awesome score!!! I'm taking the TEAS next week. I have been studying the ATI book off and on for the last few months. This weekend is crunch time. I just took the online assessment A...
  21. Anybody have Plan B?

    What wordsofmymouth said exactly. I don't want to think about it
  22. Yikes! What a pain!! I graduated HS in the mid-90s and had no problem getting mine BUT my school didn't have them. The school board archive department did. I had to send them a dollar LOL (yes, a one...
  23. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    Yay!! Congrats you guys!! Now promise to share some pointers with those of us who will (god willing!!) go through this for fall
  24. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    *so* badly. Fat fingers meet autocorrect
  25. UNF Accelerated BSN Summer 2013

    The overall GPA is just a minimum requirement and not part of the evaluation ranking right?! My 1st bachelors I did ok (above a 3.0, at least..) but I was "let's just graduate". My pre req GPA is...
