  1. Waiting on acceptance/rejection letters

    jh408 replied to tortia1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in Texas. @NurseLeelaSmile I think a fun thing to do while waiting may be a DIY project? There are so many fun things to make. I, myself, am pretty busy with schoolwork..I have no idea if I...

  2. Feeling very discouraged about applying at the moment

    jh408 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi all, I am a pre-nursing student (junior in college) who is in the process of applying to nursing school. However, I'm feeling a bit discouraged/stressed about it at the moment. I am currently...

  3. Feeling very discouraged about applying at the moment

    jh408 replied to jh408's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ah I see. Yeah, I might go and look if I can become a volunteer at a bigger hospital or at just different ones and see what kinds of patient contact volunteering things they have. The one I went to...

  4. NursingCAS electronic reference problems

    jh408 replied to jh408's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, it says it may take 5 weeks for them to verify it. So your GPA isn't calculated yet. As long as it's submitted before the deadline and all the material arrive there before then, it should be...

  5. Waiting on acceptance/rejection letters

    jh408 replied to tortia1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Same! I just finished my next application (deadline feb 1). So relieved. Now it's just waiting for verification and the supplemental application. I'm just doing more schoolwork at school in the...

  6. Feeling very discouraged about applying at the moment

    jh408 replied to jh408's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Very true! You'll never know unless you try. When do you all find out about the acceptance/rejection decision? Also, what do you do for volunteering at the hospital? I've been recently trying to find...

  7. Feeling very discouraged about applying at the moment

    jh408 replied to jh408's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Best of luck to you as well! Yeah I suppose all I can do is hope for the best. :) Yeah, I had good Hesi scores so hopefully that helps boost me a bit. I just completed another application (the one...

  8. Feeling very discouraged about applying at the moment

    jh408 replied to jh408's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't have a chance to take the TEAS so I just applied to schools that required the hesi. Yes, one of the schools required a reference letter so I'll have that. And also I've been trying to...

  9. How much volunteering, is enough volunteering?

    jh408 replied to Digthis1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with you. I have little experience with healthcare environments. I did shadow a dietitian recently, but the things I was observing didn't really benefit me much as a person wanting to go into...

  10. Waiting on acceptance/rejection letters

    jh408 replied to tortia1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Same! I applied to 3 schools. My next deadline is Feb 1st and for my third school, it's march 15th. The stress of getting everything in on time is overwhelming. It is also stressful when the school...

  11. Do most nursing schools use the A+/A- gpa weighting scale?

    jh408 replied to gentlerain's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, if you're applying to a school that only uses A, B, C, etc. All A- and A+ will be inputed in as A's 4.0 and B-/B+ as B's 3.0..etc. Therefore, your GPA and such may be different from what it...

  12. hello

    jh408 replied to Callowayz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took the A&P II lab alone in a semester after I already took the lecture for it. As long as you have a foundation for A&P, you should be fine in taking the lab alone. The workload is about...

  13. Online STAT

    jh408 replied to chwcbesteph's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck to you! I'm taking 2 online classes as well this semester, with the rest being on campus. Stats should be doable online. Practice problems definitely help. I didn't take mine online, but I...

  14. Hybrid Biology over the summer....

    jh408 replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck if you decide to take the class! Sciences are always very time-consuming when taken during mini-semesters and such, however. I took chemistry last summer and I felt quite overwhelmed,...

  15. A & P

    jh408 replied to ph94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi all, I've took A&P I and II during my first 2 years of college (I'm a junior now). I know it's a lot of memorization and information, but the best thing to do is perhaps make flash cards or a...

  16. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Your transcript may be "incomplete" if you are taking classes for spring or do not have all your Fall semester grades posted on it. Apparently that does not affect your application status, however....

  17. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yes, although I wouldn't have enough time to prepare myself for it, and I do not want to risk scoring worse on all the other sections since they require you take them all again if you must retake it....

  18. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    So basically because I made below their minimum for critical thinking (I had a 740 and they recommended a 750), they won't use my hesi scores at all. And I have no chance of applying now. I did not...

  19. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Great job on getting your vocab score boosted! Good news! I finally talked to a lady at the testing company and they told me they sent off my scores on Dec 17, so I am pretty sure they are just at...

  20. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    I talked to a BSN counselor and she told me they are still uploading scores but if I paid for everything it should be taken off by this weekend. It's killing me not having verification of whether or...

  21. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yes! I've been calling, emailing, anything to contact them about it, and I have yet to get a response. I sent in my scores last month! and my friend who told the testing company (since we didn't take...

  22. Scores sent to wrong school?

    jh408 replied to Verne's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Hi, Do you know how long it should take for scores to be sent? I had called them to pay and send my scores to a nursing school in early Dec, and my application to the nursing school is still saying...

  23. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Does anyone know if there's a way to find out if your scores have arrived at the school or not? I've been trying to call them to see if I need to send them again since they still have it on my "to do...

  24. UTHSC Houston - Fall 2013

    jh408 replied to tampicotrauma82's topic in Texas Nursing

    Oh, search for transcript on their support website and it should provide you a link to their transcript request form. Fill this out,email it to them and call the number provided on the paper....

  25. Help with transcript requests

    jh408 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I'm having some difficulties on figuring out how long it should take for transcripts as well as HESI A2 scores to be sent out and processed. I sent a transcript electronically to UTHSC-at Houston...
