  4. Anyone else depressed over teas score?

    I didn't get the worst score but still I know a 79.3 won't cut it. I know I can retake it but don't most schools look at your first score? *sigh* I feel my dream slipping out of my hands. Anyone else upset with their teas test?
  5. My schools point system you get points for the nonscience prereqs I think like 10 if have a 4.0 in all but the science prereqs if you have As in all you'd get 40 points. I have 2 bs so far but counting on an A in micro (laws). But even with that my s...
  6. Anyone Have Any Tips On Focusing??

    Procrastinate soooo much it's crazy. I wait till the last second to do just about everything knowing good and well I will be stressed out. Then I say to myself I'm gonna do the next assignment, or study for the next test EARLY. But I never do, I swea...
  7. Frustrated, any tips?

    You can't roll/push them to their side, then put the brief under them then do the other side.I'm still doing clinical but that's what we do. Use the draw sheet to pull them to one side if they can't do it themselves.
  8. If I don't get this job, I'm done.

  10. Do you have friends going towards nursing too?

    Yes. My friends flunked micro and anatomy&physio twice. She sad she didn't go to class though. She is gong to a private school so it doesn't matter, I mean she has to retake those classes there but at least she is gonna start soon. J have one pre...

  13. how long did you study before the teas

    Sorry, if this has already been asked. When did you begin studying and how often? what study guide(s) did you use and what we're your scores. Seems like ppl ask one of the Qs might as well put all the info in one place. I have about a month or so to ...
  14. Anatomy & Microbiology same semester?

    What are ppls opinion of chem 12 and micro. Op I think you can do it!
  15. CNA certificate online vs actually going to school

    How are you getting to the clinical site, everywhere you have to complete a certain number of training about 100 depending on the state. As far as the theory part I think it's good to have an instructor but I suppose it'd be ok to do online.
  16. I do wish I was 21/22 and done but alas not 21/22 and starting *sigh* but it is what it is.

  21. It does go by fast. Thanks for your advice. I do have a back pack. Believe or not my baby is almost a year, I think I made it sound like she was a newborn. Luckily, she is walking and playing on her own some. Though no longer an infant, Im sure you k...

  24. Help with downloading lectures...

    Not sure.My teacher had powerpoints and Itunes. I was never able to successfully download itunes but I heard it helps a lot to listen to those lectures. I recommend asking the teacher or going to the computer lab/library and asking someone there.
  25. Am I making a bad decision or should I stick to the course?

    I'm live in the central valley where are you from? I see job postings for nurses from time to time but I haven't actively searched to see how jobs for nursesfare hear.
