I have thought of back up plans, but become very depressed. I know nursing is the only job I can see myself having & being happy with. I'm so close to wanting to give up, but there is some hope left! Don't give up if you can't go a day without th...

Hello everyone, I applied to the St.Lukes school is PA. And have to take a critical thinking test in a couple of days, but have no idea what this test is?! Has anyone every taken it at this school? Is it actually the TEAS test? Ugh I'm so confused, a...

As you can tell I am so nervous I can't even make a proper sentence lol but why I ask if it's the TEAS, is because the email they sent asked if I ever took the ati TEAS test. I really hope it's not I only got a 3 day notice ugh!

I have severe ADHD, as long as you are getting treatment. It is possible!

Drop if you can, and take it in the summer. You will do much better with just worrying about 1 class.

I will studying as much as I can for this next one, would really like to pass it the second time! I have ADHD and forgot my medication that day too, plus I was late. So I think it was a mixture which gave me a poor outcome, I hope! Did you both pass ...

I actually bought it a week before the test! How dumb I was. Didn't get to study it at all. I'm hoping studying it now will atleast get me to 100. How did you manage the math part? It wasn't very hard but the time ran out so fast, that is what made m...

Just wanted to post for anyone that status still says applied, I talked to someone in the health department, she told me if you scored below pax score they didn't even review the application. Which is why it still says applied. I was told to retake i...

Congrats to you both! I'm guessing having all classes done wasn't the only thing they are looking for?

Please post back here when you call, mine also still says applied, and I'm really curious as to why.

Same here, i wonder why it's taking so long. They forget some people?

Sorry I just have to say, they allowed you to have a calculator?? I'm jealous they didn't allow them on the PAX...

I haven't taken stats yet, taking it this summer. However I have taken microbiolgy, I found it to be way harder than A&P. It may have been because my professor made sure to not give anything easy, she makes courses as hard as they can be! I didn'...

I know many people who have had children/were pregnant during and before nursing school. They said it was very hard, but they finished. I myself just had a child, and have a hard time just studying. I feel like if you are able to wait until youre don...

Have you taken intro to nutrition? If not, I would suggest that class.

It's very normal to be nervous, you are starting your career! Although exciting, I can imagine being so nervous if I got in also. I'm sure you will do great! Just get a plan going, organize have everything ready weeks before. Congrats you are going t...

What month did everyone take their PAX exam? Mine was in Dec, but rescheduled to January. I'm guessing that is why my status still says applied, even though I have all but 1 pre-req done and a high GPA, there is no way I could of got in with my pax s...

What's your exact GPA? Not too familiar with New York schools, one of my classmates applied to NYU and got in with a 3.5 GPA. You should look into that school.

Yes, if you happen to finish faster you don't have to wait.

Exactly, I have a 4.0 at the college I transferred to. But I know since I didn't do well on my exam I didn't get into the program. I Feel like they shouldn't determine how well you will do in a program.

The community college in my area that I transferred from does the same thing, you only take the TEAS after your acceptence. I was surprised how they could do that, yet other colleges make you take the tests before to even be looked at. I wish they wo...

They weren't too bad, If you really focus and study! And please if available go to tutoring. It took me a good 5 semesters (including summer) to finish them. Microbiology to me was the hardest class I took, no matter how much I studied I still did ba...

Mine says applied also, does yours say start date S1/15?

Oh ok
