  1. Taking physio and 3 other classes in the same semester

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Ilargia99's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took physiology along with nutrition, medical terminology, and honors political science. It wasn't too bad - I pulled off a B+ in lecture and an A in lab with a moderate amount of work. If I had...

  2. Precalculus and calculus vs statistics

    ThatOneDude822 replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took AP calculus in high school and it's definitely more on the algebra side. You should be pretty strong in algebra for calculus. It's funny; I liked calc better, but I got a better grade in...

  3. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    Yes, I signed up for the CPR class too. I couldn't pass it up when it's about $75 through Red Cross/other organizations for

  4. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    The estimated costs page on the nursing website says that it's a single time fee. Has anyone else turned in the RSVP

  5. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    I also got conditional acceptance! So excited! Also quite unexpected since they said not to expect anything until the end of July! Definitely a great surprise to make my day a bit more

  6. Teas V?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to bfwdesigns244's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    As was already mentioned, we only got pencil and paper. But, none of the questions are terribly difficult. If you can do division, and add/subtract/multiply 3-5 numbers at a time, then you'll be fine....

  7. "Patience" Is Not A Word In Our Vocabulary

    ThatOneDude822 replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, I finally found someone else whose school doesn't send letters until July/August! Everyone else I've talked to/seen got/gets theirs in April or may, with a few in June. Makes me feel better...

  8. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    Hmm, interesting. I just double checked and the GPA calculator also gave me extra points. So calculating mine by hand, I end up with 82 primary points and 85 total points. How

  9. Please don't call me Dude

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I'm an 18 year old guy from CA and I agree; I've never liked "dude," "man," "sir," or anything like that. Whenever I'm addressing someone that I know, I usually just use "hun." "Thanks for gettin'...

  10. Hardest part about a&p for you?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to ilikecorgis's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school has one class for anatomy and a separate class for physiology. The hardest part of anatomy for me was learning the muscles. There were a few that were simple and were easy to memorize, like...

  11. recording classes?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to w292737's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In classes where you have the OK to go ahead and record, just use an app on your phone. I recorded a couple of my micro lectures with my phone from the back couple rows of a 200 person capacity...

  12. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    Thanks for the info! It's odd that they won't tell anyone the average points... Like it's such private information or something. How many times did you take the TEAS? The first time I took it I got...

  13. CSU Bakersfield Fall 2015 Nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to pocampo's topic in California Nursing

    I applied too. It's the only program I applied to, so I'm really hoping to get in! I got 86 primary points and 89 secondary points. According to the GPA calculator they have, my prereq GPA is 3.74,...

  14. Has anyone taken nutrition?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to xyoshira's topic in General Students

    I just finished nutrition (had my final yesterday) and I honestly didn't learn anything I didn't already know. Maybe the first couple of lectures were helpful - they looked at fat, carbs, and protein...

  15. pre-reqs

    ThatOneDude822 replied to julzgarcia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It took me about a year. More or less. During my senior year of high school, I applied to a dual enrollment program at my university where I was given a grant to take chemistry. I also took AP stats...

  16. Philosophy:Intro to Logic

    ThatOneDude822 replied to studentih's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took logic this past fall along with Anatomy and Ethical Philosophy. It's a pretty easy class from my experience, but you have to be able to think very abstractly. There were people who did really...

  17. TEAS Freak out (Ivy Tech)...

    ThatOneDude822 replied to AshleytobeRN's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I didn't take ATI's online practice tests, but I did take the ones in the study manual. I got an 83 on both of those. Then I took the TEAS the first time and got an 84.3. So I would say the practice...

  18. "Patience" Is Not A Word In Our Vocabulary

    ThatOneDude822 replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks! Yea, I'm going to one of those "dreaded California schools/programs," so the averages are pretty high because it's so competitive here. We have roughly 400-500 people apply each year (my...

  19. A&P prior to Micro?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to tulipsweeti's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school doesn't do A&P combined. Instead it has a Human Anatomy class and anHuman Physiology class. Anyway, I took anatomy in the Fall, Micro in the Winter, and I'm finishing up Physiology...

  20. "Patience" Is Not A Word In Our Vocabulary

    ThatOneDude822 replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school opened applications back in November and they were due by 3/4/2015. I submitted mine in February and we don't get out decisions until late July/early August!! (My school is on quarters so...

  21. Avg GPA/wait time for ADN Programs - California?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to SunriseDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A representative came from Bakersfield College to talk to some of the prenursing students applying for the BSN program at my university about the ADN option. BC is a lottery, but their requirements...

  22. Teas and Hesi Studying

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Irish_Mist's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took the TEAS V, and honestly, none of the free practice websites were of any help to me (out of the ones I found anyway - there may be a couple good ones out there that I don't know about). I took...

  23. What are some similar majors to nursing

    ThatOneDude822 replied to shay341's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school, PEAK (Physical Education and Kinesiology) majors take a LOT of the same courses at nursing majors, especially PEAK majors with a concentration in exercise science (as opposed to a...

  24. frustrated....

    ThatOneDude822 replied to studentih's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, that IS frustrating! I really wish your professor hadn't given in. All that leads to is undeserving people getting a spot in the nursing program, just to realize that the nursing school...

  25. Confused on when to apply?? Cal States

    ThatOneDude822 replied to ez0l1995's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I go to a CSU (finishing my last prereq, waiting for a Fall 2015 decision) and the one thing that I was a little shocked by was the huge difference among the different campuses concerning this very...
