  1. Recipes and snack ideas for school and clinicals

    ShannonBerry11 replied to hunnybunches's topic in General Students

    These are all fantastic ideas. My husband and I are both vegan, on a budget, and eat very, very little processed food, but I'm not sure I'll have time to make everything from scratch once nursing...

  2. Graduating from pre-nursing student to nursing student

    ShannonBerry11 replied to StayHumble11's topic in General Students

    I start in the fall! So excited. Seems like it's been such a long time since I started prereqs. I love buying school and organizational supplies, and I'm already tempted to start, even though it's a...

  3. Did everyone have a 4.0?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to britthohenbrink's topic in General Students

    I had a 3.9 in prereqs when I got accepted, but my overall GPA was 3.2, due to classes from another BA degree. There are all kind of reasons you can have less than a 4.0, and quite often, it has...

  4. What is your Fall schedule?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Lolita34's topic in General Students

    I'll be starting my first semester after prereqs in a BSN program. Yay! I'll be taking... Professional Nursing Professional Nursing Seminar Foundations of Pt-CenteredCare Foundations Clinical Health...

  5. University of Memphis Nursing

    ShannonBerry11 replied to DLaShae's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I got my acceptance letter for fall 2013 a few days ago! So excited! My husband and I will be having a baby in October, so I'll only be taking one class to start off, but still. So very

  6. Finished pre-reqs....now the waiting game begins!

    ShannonBerry11 replied to SopranoKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I finished my pre-reqs this semester, too! I'm applying for the fall '13 semester in Jan/Feb, and I won't find out until the end of February. In the meantime, I'm taking a Stats class that applies...

  7. What classes did you pair with A&P I (Anatomy)?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to queserasera's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it with A&P1 Lab, Clinical Nutrition, Speech, and an Art History class. Made all As, so it wasn't a bad pairing at all. I would suggest getting those humanities classes out of the way, so...

  8. Final exams over, how did u do?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to cee cee g's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A in A&PII lab, A in A&PII lecture, A in an art history class I'm retaking from my previous degree (to boost my GPA), A in micro lab, and I have yet to take my micro lecture final! Expecting a...

  9. Which Nursing Program would you choose?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to peachshan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have been in this almost exact situation, and to avoid taking out student loans like I have in the past, here's what I did: I chose a full-time BSN program, starting in fall '13. I won't be able to...

  10. Micro and A&P 2

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Graduation2016's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Micro this semester, and I've found Barron's E-Z Microbiology to be really helpful!

  11. Human bio? Or Anatomy & Physiology?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to COMPLEXBeautyy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would suggest calling the admissions/transcript office of the school you're planning to transfer to, and asking how that class transfers. I've never heard of Human Bio 1&2, but I'll take a guess...

  12. Nurses, how are you going to vote? 2012 US Presidential Election

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Obama/Biden

  13. Pre-Nursing Transfer Student

    ShannonBerry11 replied to jonesel9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the testing dates depend on your school. I applied to the Lowenberg School of Nursing at the University of Memphis, and the TEAS is offered year round. The testing site is on campus. I think...

  14. Pre-Nursing Transfer Student

    ShannonBerry11 replied to jonesel9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm waiting on my letter now! I applied a couple of months ago. I also took the TEAS over the summer, and yes - most definitely use the ATI book!! Everything that is on the test is covered in the...

  15. Waiting For Spring 2013 Acceptance..Anyone else?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Guys - I'm still waiting. It's so awful. Anxiety is no fun, and I'm really tired of checking the mail twice a day. (I live in an apartment, and our mail comes at different times every day - so...

  16. Pre-Nursing Transfer Student

    ShannonBerry11 replied to jonesel9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    An associates will get you an RN license (assuming you take the NCLEX afterward), at which point you can go to a 4-year college and do an RN-to-BSN program. Many people do this so save money or to be...

  17. ANY advice on A&P

    ShannonBerry11 replied to havehope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Flashcards really helped me in A&P 1. It's a little more difficult to organize them in A&P 2, but really - they are a godsend. I made an A in the class, and just writing them and looking at...

  18. Waiting For Spring 2013 Acceptance..Anyone else?

    ShannonBerry11 replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to a BSN program at the beginning of August, and they are supposed to send out letters this month. I'm so incredibly nervous checking the mail every day. October 1st was the application...

  19. Really nervous about applying

    ShannonBerry11 replied to rduterte's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is so great. I'm awaiting my letter of acceptance/rejection right now, and I'm SO nervous. This is inspirational. Thank you.

  20. I feel afraid and discouraged :( Just checked my grades.......

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Elkay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First of all, a few Bs will not kill your chances of getting into a masters program. I promise. You have many more classes to go to improve your GPA if you want! Second, don't be so hard on yourself....

  21. TN BON application for initial licensure fees?

    ShannonBerry11 posted a topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I'm a new nursing student, but have decided to start my NCLEX fund early. I know the testing fee is $200, but does anyone know if there is a fee for the initial application to the TN Board of Nursing?...

  22. Fall 2012 Microbiology Students -- STAND UP!

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Exhaustipated's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm starting the second week of Micro. The material isn't difficult so far, and my professor is amazing! He actually co-wrote our lab book, which makes integrating the lab and class easier, I think. I...

  23. Score of 90 on TEAS V

    ShannonBerry11 replied to sacnurse's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I scored a 90+, and most definitely recommend the ATI TEAS study book and the McGraw-Hill 5 Teas Practice Tests. I studied a while longer, about a month and a half - I hadn't completed all of my...

  24. Lowenberg School of Nursing - University of Memphis - Spring 2013

    ShannonBerry11 replied to Mrs.Priss's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I took the TEAS in June - yeah, I really think they just want you to pass so that they can consider your GPA, which according to many people on this site, seems to be the only factor in admission....

  25. University of Memphis Nursing

    ShannonBerry11 replied to DLaShae's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I think you could certainly try. I completely understand needing that income; I do too. Just make sure to make time to study during the
