  1. Average TEAS V Score? Your score?

    I got an 83 on it and was accepted into my competitive entry BSN
  2. Failed NCLEX for the 3rd time

    I'm so sorry for the frustration and disappointment you're experiencing. I know it's disheartening but your persistance and dedication is abundantly obvious! To be totally frank, at this point, I...
  3. Uniforms

    We can get any black scrub pants we want, but have to buy our scrub top from them (also black but has a red piping around the neckline). I actually like the top... from a distance. There is a seam...

    Have you heard anything
  5. Davenport University

    I believe you can get most, if not all, vaccinations through the Dept of Health. My Mother in Law used to take her kids there because they did it for free, or for very little. Might be worth a
  6. How to deal with unsupportive people.

    Look at your 7 year old and know why you are doing this. Listen to your mother's words and add them to the things you will never say to your own child. Thank her for her opinion, and for helping you...
  7. Davenport Waitlist (LPN)

    Hi, Danielle, I am, unfortunately, not going to have any answers for you! I applied to DU because they didn't have a waitlist (the BSN program), so I'm really surprised to hear this! Have you applied...
  8. Davenport University

    Anoetoes! So happy to hear from you! As funny as this sounds, I was reading this thread while waiting to hear back and as you all received your acceptance letters, I got so excited for you (even...
  9. Question About Stretched Ears

    As someone who has a) been through childbirth and b) now has children, I would very strongly recommend giving up your stretched lobes. I can hardly wear earrings without my kids grabbing at them, and...
  10. Accrediation - which ones matter the most?

    Which accreditations are most important? For example, if a school is NLNAC accredited but not CCNE accredited, is the student at more risk for not being as desirable as job applicant? What about for...
  11. Michigan nursing student blog

    15?!??!?!?!??!?!?!?! Good
  12. Michigan nursing student blog

    I hear you about sticker shock. I've got to pay for tuition and books out of pocket for spring and even though I'm at a CC, I'm still like this: Ready for my grants to pick up
  13. 14 credit hours?

    Yep - you can do it! I took Chem (w/lab), Microbiology (w/lab), A&P I (W/lab) and psych all in one semester while working FT from home with my 3 year old and 1 year old. It isn't going to be easy,...
  14. I'm going to scream...

    I agree with this. If you've taken any kind of math class and A&P within the last year or so you'll be fine with 1-2 weeks of studying. Good

  16. I'm not getting in :(

    Jennifer, that sounds fantastic!!!! Congratulations! Keeping my fingers crossed for your acceptance!!! When will you
  17. Michigan nursing student blog

    I know exactly what you mean. I currently work 3 jobs (one FT, one 3/4 time and one PT) all from home. I'm with my kids all day, every day, so this is going to be a big adjustment for all 3 of
  18. Michigan nursing student blog

    Ugh, NO! :-( According to the advisor, we won't have much info about schedules until closer to the start of the semester because they are working out clinical schedules with the hospitals. As for...
  19. Time Limits on Science Classes ??

    Yep. This is true for the CC I currently attend and the university I'll be attending this fall. It sucks for people on a waiting list because some will have to retake some classes before they can...
  20. Personalized License plates.

    I think I'd be more afraid of someone with a bad nurse experience taking out their frustration on my car.
  21. Opinions Please!!

    I'm a SAHM, well, I actually WAHM, but I'm home with my kids 24/7. I can absolutely promise you that I am NOT built for this. This wasn't my choice, its the result of our circumstances. I struggle...
  22. Davenport University

    Congratulations, vannostrand!!!!:yelclap: I'll be with you at Warren!
  23. Opinions Please!!

    Possible? Yes. But it will likely be one of the most difficult things you will ever do. Your post partum hormones are insane in the best case scenario. Worst case scenario you end up with post partum...
  24. I got in!!

    Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! I wish you all the best as you begin your studies and new career path!
  25. Microbiology and Chemistry this Summer

    While I don't have any good notes to pass along, I do have some advice, as I took both of these classes the same semester (along with A&P1 - it was hell!) Do not let yourself get behind,...
