  1. How old were you when starting prereqs and did it discourage you?

    princesax11 replied to princesax11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Bigmamaknows thank you for the information, but I moved here with my parents and can't afford to live on my own. Unfortunately, that isn't an option for me right

  2. Did anyone take the HESI and TEAS V?

    princesax11 posted a topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I took the Teas V in 2010 and got an overall score of 82%. I am curious how the HESI is compared to the Teas. The new nursing program I will be applying to requires the HESI. Do you think it is harder...

  3. Starting My Dreams! First post to AN need a little advice...

    princesax11 replied to which_path's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First let me say congratulations on the baby :). I think it is great that you are getting a start on your dream. You might need some coreqs and the prereqs done before they accept you since nursing is...

  4. Done with Nursing?

    princesax11 replied to Keeka_Prenurse13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do NOT give up if this is what you truly want. My cumulative gpa isn't high enough for BSN programs, but my prereq gpa is so far and as long as I score high on the HESI next year I will get in. Do the...

  5. Did anyone take the HESI and TEAS V?

    princesax11 replied to princesax11's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Thank you jshanice11. Now I will try to be more relaxed about taking the HESI. I didn't study at all for the TEAS V and did pretty good. Hopefully studying for the HESI will really help out. I am...

  6. Social Anxiety and nursing school.

    princesax11 replied to haileyjewell's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are going to have this problem in almost any field working with other people, not just nursing. Figure out a way you feel comfortable trying to get over it by doing baby steps. Speak up once every...

  7. Who started studying yet?

    princesax11 replied to ImDaMan11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't go back to school until Fall 2013 because out of state tuition rates in FL are so high But I have been studying my cliffnotes biology because it will be on the hesi so I am trying to store it...

  8. Anyone doing pre reques and nursing program at a community college?

    princesax11 replied to shaylah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going to get restarted on my prereqs fall 2013 when I get in state tuition. I have a few prereqs done when I went to college a few years ago. I will be in a community college doing it then...

  9. Prerequisites take 3 years?

    princesax11 replied to AshMetz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would look at other schools because that plan sounds odd to me.. I think your best and cheapest option would be to go to community college for 1-2 years and get all the prereqs for the programs you...

  10. Getting into a decent nursing school

    princesax11 replied to armaankh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most nursing programs wont really admit students right out of high school to the program except a rare few colleges. For a BSN most colleges you need to do the prereq courses and then apply to the...

  11. Patient Familes are ANNOYING!

    princesax11 replied to COMPLEXBeautyy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you have any down time when she's sleeping or does she need constant care? I can see where your coming from if she needs constant care, but honestly you need a bit of an attitude adjustment. When...

  12. Chemistry not required for nursing program?

    princesax11 replied to RN2BE93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't like chem too much. I took it in 2010 for the ADN program I was applying to and got a B. Then I moved out of state and now that class doesn't even matter haha. It really depends on the...

  13. Pursuing my nursing career at 37. Words of wisdom needed!

    princesax11 replied to Katieon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was afraid of starting prereqs because I am not fresh out of high school. I went to community college for two years fresh out of high school with a different major and the last semester I switched...

  14. Hesi

    princesax11 replied to katrinad's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    As the PP said it depends entirely on your school. For example, the ADN program I will apply to next year has a 100 point system that gives 25 points based on GPA, 35 points based on gen eds...

  15. What kind of nurse do you want to be?

    princesax11 replied to MeekaNichole's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would love to be in L&D, NICU or pediatrics, but I am still just a pre-nursing student. I heard a lot of people change their mind after they start clinicals so that is probably when I will...

  16. Does previous college experience have to go on a college application?

    princesax11 replied to sss83's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You must send all college transcripts if it is in your school policy. I just applied to my school for next fall and it listed many repercussions associated with omitting any previous college...

  17. Grades are great except for one prereq!

    princesax11 replied to futurenurse912's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Before opening this I thought you failed a class or something! You still have a 3.6 GPA (which is great!). Don't forget you still have 3 classes left and if you get a A in them it will boost your GPA...

  18. Low GPA

    princesax11 replied to Amanda0418's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't have a really bad GPA, but it was not good enough for nursing. My current cum. GPA is a 3.1 and that will never get me into any BSN program near me because of how competitive they are, which...

  19. Taking pre-reqs and having two toddlers

    princesax11 replied to llovefutureRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't have any kids yet, but my biggest recommendation is to try to do as much work/studying as you can at the library. Having a space away from all the distractions is best. My brother works at...

  20. Finished with a C in chemistry

    princesax11 replied to emily12345's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I imagine it is not fun at all. But I would still apply to the program with the C and then if they don't accept you, retake it. I feel like in sciences you have to try your best or it is so easy to do...

  21. It Can Be Done!

    princesax11 replied to ksecatero21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yayy great

  22. Advice on Schedule Please!!

    princesax11 replied to FutureNurseShammy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't take a&p yet so I can't speak for that, but I did take psychology and sociology. That person is really over exaggerating!!! You can definitely take them both together. They are pretty...

  23. Nervous about getting in ADN program

    princesax11 replied to ShadowsGirl101's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What classes did you take besides bio and what were your grades? It really depends on your program if you will get accepted. Is bio a prereq for your ADN program or is it just what you need to take...

  24. Working p/t while in school full time

    princesax11 replied to EJ_81's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on how much you are going to work. 20 hours or less I can see working out fine with your classes in the fall and spring. I personally don't reach my full potential if I work more...

  25. How old were you when starting prereqs and did it discourage you?

    princesax11 replied to princesax11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm so glad my question could help other people feeling the same way! :) Thank you all for your helpful answers. I never realized how many people go into nursing as a second career. It is such a...
