  1. Do YOU enjoy nursing school?

    DFWgal replied to tammy_zeidan09's topic in General Students

    Congrats to all of you, nursing students! I had read a lot of negative posts about NS sucking the life out of you and I see several burnt out nurses at the hospital where I volunteer, so it's a relief...

    DFWgal replied to Hibbzem17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took both together plus Stats, Intro to Psyc, and Dev Psyc last Fall and I did good, but I put lots of hours into it. Only you know if you'll be able to put that effort. (Some people work full time,...

    DFWgal replied to AL1992's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I volunteer at the local hospital. Some of the nurses have told me they are proud I'm applying to NS but there is one lady that's always bugging me about going to Med. School instead. I just ignore...

  6. Nutrition

    DFWgal replied to NursingN.C's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    DFWgal replied to sumaar's topic in International Nursing

    DFWgal replied to gardenfan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just a question: do you need this class as a specific pre-req or to complete your core? I took Micro and Macroeconomics instead and they counted at the university where I'll apply for nursing school....

  16. el centro college

    DFWgal replied to hopefulprayers1's topic in Texas Nursing

    Uptown is an area of Dallas. Downtown is a bit dead and most of the city is... I would say "suburban". If you want have a "city" environment, uptown is supposed to be the place :) There are military...

  17. el centro college

    DFWgal replied to hopefulprayers1's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yes, University Park and Highland Park are nice areas but WAY too expensive. IMHO, you get too little for the price you pay. Both are the most expensive neighborhood in Dallas actually. Garland is...

  18. el centro college

    DFWgal replied to hopefulprayers1's topic in Texas Nursing

    That area is not very safe IMHO. I don't know your budget but you could check uptown that is a better neighborhood and close to both Baylor and El Centro. If not, areas like East Dallas are less than...

  23. Question about Math prerequisite. Welcoming all insight!

    DFWgal replied to AaronsMommyxx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think C is the answer too. However, I don't know if this automatically gives you credit for that Alg/Geo I or if you need an extra credit-by-examination test. That I would ask to your advisor

    DFWgal replied to juslikeneon's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I checked Amazon's reviews and people say that Geology stuff was part of the older editions of the TEAS. At this point I'll just study with the ATI material I purchased and that's it. I'm taking the...
