  1. Nursing School changing criteria to pass classes

    We have to pass with an 80% or higher. And there is no rounding up, so if you have a 79.9% it counts as a fail
  2. I want to be an RN soooo bad!!!!

    I second this. If this is truly what you want, then you need to take a stand in your personal life to make a change, or you'll never make it.
  3. Did u get a letter or email?

    I got a phone call, then an email, and then a letter. :)
  4. How to get the most out of the readings

    I do a quick skim through the section and use a pencil to circle difficult areas or words I don't understand. Then I go back and cover those areas.
  5. I was offered admission!!!!

  6. I was offered admission!!!!

    Got the word today that I am being offered admission to the ADN program at Highline CC. It was a lottery system but thankfully my name was chosen!! I'm so excited, almost 3 years after quitting my FT job to go to Nursing School, I will start Jan 6!
  7. I was offered admission!!!!

    I really enjoy it. You'll like Sarah! We start clinicals at Valley birth center next week and I am really looking forward to it.
  8. Your mother has a very dated view on what nurses do and who they are. I suggest you try to educate her on the role of a nurse. If that doesn't work, I suggest that you do what will make you happy, not your mom. I get the tiger Asian mom thing, I have...
  9. WSU nursing applicants for fall 2014?

    Your score is in 91st percentile of scores. So that means 9% of people scored higher than you
  10. Any other moms

    I am a mom of 2 boys, ages 2 and 5. I just started my nursing program and while it's tough, it's doable with good support from your family and friends
  11. A&p 1 study tips

    Study study study. Write the names down so you know all the names and how to spell them. Print out blank charts from the internet and fill them out. An A&P coloring book really helped me
  12. Nursing school orientation

    I hear ya, between all the shots, bloodwork, tests, background checks, Scrubs, shoes, stethoscope, and supplies, I've probably spent at least 1k. Put it on a credit card if you have to. It will be worth it in the end
  13. First of all, your parents are nutters. If they did a little bit of research they would know how difficult it is to get into a program. Secondly, if you have an associate's degree, I would go straight to a BSN program if that is your ultimate goal. R...
  14. I have 2 boys ages 2 and 4. I quit a comfortable full-time job 1.5 years ago to follow my dream. I start my ADN program in less then two weeks!!! I'm so nervous but I know that all my hard work and dedication will pay off!
  15. Nursing Schools in the Seattle Area Winter 2014

    Thanks for the info! I did get into Highline for Winter 2014 admission (2 more weeks!) But I will pass the info on to my friends who are still trying to get in !
  16. Should I retake Anatomy?

    In my honest opinion a C+ is not a good grade for a&p. I would probably retake that course or at least do some serious review on the topics you struggled with. My RN program wouldn't take any grades below a 3.0, and even with my 4.0's I still fee...
  17. Seattle University BSN (Transfer) Applicants 2014

    Try the Washington page :) good luck everyone
  18. TEAS TEST SCORES

    It really depends on the entrance requirements for your school. We have to score a 75 overall to even be considered
  19. Tacoma Community College Nursing program

    Okay there are not a ton of colleges but there is pierce, olympic, and some other ones I can't remember off the top of my head. Highline is a little further north and I'm sure tcc will sort things out
  20. Tacoma Community College Nursing program

  21. Bellevue College 2014-2016 Part Time Hopefuls

    Yay Heim!!!!
  22. Tacoma Community College Nursing program

    I have no clue what is going down at TCC but it makes me very happy that I got into HCC for winter
  23. last micro assignment, DONE!

    Is it super weird that I LOVED micro? Would totally do it again just for fun
  24. CLASS OF 2016

    2016 grad here as well. I start my ADN program on January 6! We just had orientation yesterday and I'm super excited to start!
  25. LPN or RN...Based on my circumstances?

    Mike I am in the Seattle area as well and am entering Highlines ADN program in January. With the exception of your A&P scores, my grades were very similar. Have you taken the TEAS yet? Admissions to many of the schools weigh heavily on your scor...
