    Congrats to everyone! After getting a denial letter for a BSN program in early April, I got an email from the program's nursing coordinator about a week ago asking me to call her. I called, left a...
  2. Ages of male nursing students?

  10. Opinions and advice needed please!

  11. How hard is it to get into a BSN program?

    Thank you! Well, I graduated high school in 2006 and had already taken some college level classes like English Composition, Critical Thinking and Psychology so that helped. Was pre-med at first and...
  12. I believed they offered a combined class at my school but a lot of programs didn't accept it so I had to take both separately, one was 5 semester units and one was 4 semester unit if I remember...
  13. As long as you think you can do well in them. I took Anatomy and Physiology together and got Bs in both of them when I should have gotten As. If I were to take both of them at the same time, I...

  19. ATI online practice test...?

    I believe that both tests helped because I got a 75 and 76 on the practice tests and ended up with an 83 adjusted on test day. Since I took the practice tests only a few days before the actual test...
  20. Score of 90 on TEAS V

    Got a 90 on the TEAS 4.0 in 2009 and then got an 83 when I took the TEAS V (Reading:88.1, Math: 93.3, Science:66.7, English and Language:90.0) this past January. I only had the study guide for the...
  21. Depression. I have lost faith, please help.

    Here comes my life story: Mid-way during the fall 2007 semester, I decided that I wanted to pursue nursing as a career. I was already a certified EMT and had been volunteering at a local hospital. I...

    I was the opposite, I had a cumulative GPA of 3.4 and I got all Bs in my pre-reqs (should have gotten almost all As but I was immature while taking them) except for Micro, which was a C :/ This was a...
