Shauentrese- I am supposed to start in wauwatosa this fall. Email me at [email protected] ! We can talk and prep together :)

I know bryant and stratton wauwatosa is regionally and nationally accredited and has a 96% nclex pass rate. I always worry though. Like do they just fail anyone who wont pass the nclex to keep it high? You never know. But waitlists are 3+ years here to even start other nursing programs and unfortunately I just dont have that kind of time.

I start Sept 12 at Bryant and Stratton in Wauwatosa. If anyone else will be going here send me an email at [email protected] !

Is anyone talking about Bryant and Stratton? I am supposed to attend in the fall and would love a heads up if so.

I will be attending Bryant and Stratton in the fall. It is highly regarded by hospitals in Milwaukee from what I have heard from recruiters.

I have been accepted into BSC for fall and was was told the whole program can be done in early mornings. I am only free until 1 pm each day and they assure me that I can take the entire course of study and be done in 20 months and always be home by 1 pm. I have no problem with early mornings but since there is no class schedule available to view online I am afraid I will get 3 semesters in then find out I have to take afternoon classes and that the admission people lied. But at that point they will have my money. Is there any current or former students who can verify that all the classes can be taken in the early mornings and be done by 1 pm? I realize clinicals may run a little longer (I have been told up to 2 pm.) How many days each week did you need to do clinicals in each semester, and were your regular classes able to be done by 1 pm? Thanks

I just took the TEAS V and I wouldnt really panic. i thought it was going to be much worse then it was! I am terrible at math (like D's in it in school) yet I got a 94% in the Math section. I have only ever taken biology (no anatomy and physiology, no Chem etc) and got a 74% in that section. Reading comprehension is common sense and the grammar part just takes like an hour of studying beforehand. I found out I had to take it a week before the test. I got the study guide from ATI and it really is all you need. I read the whole thing, did the 2 practice tests and got in the 94th percentile. I think I freaked myself out way more then I needed to! Just get the study guide and read through the science to a point of understanding it and do the math stuff and youll be fine. Just make sure you know the basics, order of operations, a lot of fractions (multiplying dividing simplifying etc), FOIL, how to find perimeter and area and how to calculate roman numerals. I spent a long time trying to memorize conversions (mili to centi etc) all of the conversion values are provided to you on the test you just need to know mathmatically what to do with them.I had nothing on rocks or clouds or any random thing like that. Mainly know parts of the cell and what they do, DNA, RNA, mitosis, Meiosis, what goes on in the radom S and other phases, how many cells result from each, just basic understanding type stuff. Know the different organ systems, photosynthesis (what it uses and creates), know which kind of graph to use in which situation, all the stuff on how to do a good scientific experiment (control groups, whats a hypothesis etc.) Know how to apply that stuff. Then basic chem stuff. Understand the periodic table in terms of what the numbers mean, know how to balance an equation, know about the different shells and about different types of bonds. Reading comprehension is a given, just be sure to take your time when reading articles because there are some kinda trick questions.Know types of writing (persuasive, narrative, expositional etc) Grammar just be sure you know rules of capitilization and punctuation (commons, quotes, semicolons etc), know VERY well how to define a simple sentence vs complex sentence, I had a few questions on "what is the correct spelling of the word" so know commonly mispelled words, make sure you know subject verb agreement etc. Basically everything the study guide says you need to know is what you need to know. No suprises for me.

Hi! I am meeting with B&S monday and feel I will be in the same boat! I dont even qualify for any grants from FAFSA because I already have an undergrad degree in social work. So all I will qualify for is the $9500 a year loan which for BandS wont cut it at all! I really want to be able to go though so may have to look into private loans, though I would really like to avoid that. I have been looking for scholorships too but with no luck. I will let you know if I find any! What campus are you looking into?
