  1. Georgia Baptist College of Nursing Fall 2014

    bravera replied to smontg17's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey guys, the titers and vaccination process is very lengthy and a total pain. My advice is to begin it as soon as possible, because they will hot hesitate to delay your clinical date or send you...

  2. Study tips for exams? NEED HELP ASAP!!!

    bravera replied to ambereyes1987's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Everyone's learning style is different, so I really suggest finding what yours is as soon as possible. Here is an assessment tool that can help you discover how you learn best:...

  3. TEAS TEST SCORES

    bravera replied to Smk22's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Hey there, I'm currently in a nursing program and previously scored a 92 or 93% (I forget which, it's been so long!) on TEAS using the ATI TEAS V Review manual found here: TEAS Review Manual, Version...

  4. Blood Typing

    bravera replied to jackiei3's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    You're right. Being Rh negative means that you lack the D antigen on the surface of your cells, also known as the RH factor. Being pregnant with a baby whose blood type is Rh positive would cause your...

  5. GBCN first year

    bravera replied to manali92's topic in Georgia Nursing

    There are a bit of older students, but don't let that intimidate you :) I'm only 22 and my closest friend in the school is older than my mother and on her third degree! You definitely won't be the...

  6. GBCN first year

    bravera replied to manali92's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hey there! I'm a rising senior at GBCN and will be overseeing your class. First of all, I want to say Mercer is a wonderful school and we're happy to have both of you join us! You absolutely,...

  7. Mercer, Kennesaw accelerated or GPC?? Advices please???

    bravera replied to Brazilian nurse's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I really enjoy it. The professors are all extremely understanding and work together to teach all the classes, so you'll never be given more than one exam a day or more schoolwork than you can handle....

  8. Mercer, Kennesaw accelerated or GPC?? Advices please???

    bravera replied to Brazilian nurse's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm a Mercer student now and most of my classmates had a 3.4+ and 85+ on TEAS. I had a 3.8 and a 91 on TEAS. Good luck!

  9. Giving away grades - unethical?

    bravera posted a topic in General Students

    Not sure if I'm just being overly sensitive about this or not, but has anyone experienced professors giving out free points on exams to students for things other than academic achievement? My...

  10. Teas V before A&P 2 and Microbiology.

    bravera replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took the TEAS V before A&P 2 and did just fine. I remember seeing quite a lot of questions in regards to blood flow and vessels on the exam, though. I suggest buying the TEAS V study manual from...

  11. I have a dilemma...

    bravera replied to STLmomma27's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Are you pursuing an ASN or BSN? Most BSN programs will not even consider a student with anything below a 2.7 GPA. BSN schools generally only look at pre-requisite GPAs--that is, only classes that are...

  12. Is it possible???

    bravera replied to classy923's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took microbiology in conjunction with A&P I when I was pre-nursing and had absolutely no

  13. Working while in school ?

    bravera replied to ahinson07's topic in General Students

    I think they bank on the fact that it's impossible to work more than 10 hours a week and succeed with classes from 8-5 M-F and 6-hour clinicals on Satuday morning. Supposedly one girl was threatened...

  14. PrepU prepwho? Anyone used it?

    bravera replied to delabeaux's topic in General Students

    We use it and I don't care much for it it. It is extremely glitchy (keeping me at mastery level 1 for 40 questions despite making 100% on all of them, and then shooting me straight up to level 8 after...

  15. Working while in school ?

    bravera replied to ahinson07's topic in General Students

    This is really subjective and based on you. My nursing program absolutely does not allow you to work more than 10 hours a week, and you definitely cannot work the night before clinical, no

  16. So many nursing majors in my class!

    bravera replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is pretty common, like the other two posters mentioned. The numbers do tend to drop off pretty drastically, especially if your area is highly competitive. In my A&P II course, about 25% of...

  17. Is it okay to ask for letters of recommendation from CC professors?

    bravera replied to Get2theChoppa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The majority of my classmates in my accelerated BSN program at a highly respected university attended CC for their pre-requisites. It shouldn't matter. I would think universities care more about the...

  18. Is a B average really that bad?

    bravera replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, the closer to 4.0 you are, the better your chances. It depends on the program and area, but generally a 3.5 will get you in a BSN program. I was accepted to a BSN program with a 3.8, with a...

  19. Where to buy hemostats?

    bravera replied to mdm063's topic in General Students

    No teeth? Try a sporting goods store. My uncle has tons of straight hemostats with no teeth for fishing. I think they're also common among piercers/tattoo

  20. i'm serching for journals

    bravera replied to trilia_03's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Nutrition and Student Performance at School - Taras - 2009 - Journal of School Health - Wiley Online Library Google scholar also lists tons: journal breakfast and student performance - Google Scholar...

  21. Does taking 12 credits a semester look bad?

    bravera replied to Jannie92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My last 3 semesters before beginning nursing school were 12 and 13 hour course loads. I got in. 12 hours is still considered full time, so it shouldn't be a

  22. Need Advice!!

    bravera replied to collegegirl101's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would definitely take pathophysiology, if nothing else. Most nursing schools require it. It will explain how all the diseases you'll commonly come in contact with occur and help keep A&P fresh...

  23. What do I do? CC -> University

    bravera replied to daninthenyc's topic in General Students

    I would suggest getting your general chemistry or biology (whichever your nursing school of choice requires), both English classes, microbiology, and some of your electives out of the way first. Save...

  24. What do I do? CC -> University

    bravera replied to daninthenyc's topic in General Students

    Many people I know look down on community colleges for silly reasons, because they feel they are not "on par" with universities because they are often 2-year schools that put out associates degrees....

  25. Pre nursing process

    bravera replied to futurenurse1986's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is the correct answer. All schools different and should outline the requirements on their web page. In my state, most students are required to talk English 1 and 2, college algebra, elementary...
