    How long should I study?

    BusyBee91 replied to lindsaypaige91's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    1. Have you taken the SAT? Do you test well? If you did well on the SAT math and language sections, you'll probably be fine on the TEAS. I got a 1980 on my SAT (no studying, no prep) so I'm sure...

    UMSON Fall 2014

    BusyBee91 replied to queserasera's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I have no idea what en 109 correlates to, but typically you needed to have taken eng composition and eng lit. The course code is different depending on where you take it. If you're missing either of...

    Calculators??

    BusyBee91 replied to MSofia's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I disagree with those saying you cannot study for the English section. You need to be familiar with your grade school grammar, and you should do some reading comprehension work. There are many many...

    Did bad on TEAS twice. ADVICE?

    BusyBee91 replied to ohhivivian's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    What did your score break down to? Because you can (and should) get near perfect scores on the math and reading. Hit those hard - there shouldn't be any surprises in those sections. The science is...

    McGraw Hill Book ??

    BusyBee91 replied to SKay226's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I exclusively used the mcgraw book that you're talking about to study. It was great prep for the math and language portions, but I honestly don't think you can really know what will pop up on that...

    UMSON Fall 2014

    BusyBee91 replied to queserasera's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Not that I'm an expert, but to address your question about retaking a course - I'm assuming decisions would be made before you got a new grade, so for this application it might not make a difference....

    online patho a bad idea?

    BusyBee91 replied to NurseSN45696's topic in General Students

    I took pathophysiology online with Margaret Bolton through College of Southern Maryland (community college, so less expensive than a four yr). I loved it. It was a really well done class, and she is...

    CNL

    BusyBee91 replied to BusyBee91's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'd heard that the interviews were short, but I think mine was around half an hour, and it seemed amiable/comfortable to me. I didn't feel like it needed to be longer. How long did yours go? The...

    You're welcome! Also, based on what you mentioned, I'd say you seem competitive (at least to me)! So I bet you'll get an interview. Have you called admissions to check? Nicole and Angie have both...

    Are my scores good enough for Montgomery College MD Fall 2014

    BusyBee91 replied to ProspectRN's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I don't know about this program specifically, but if I were you, I'd definitely retake the TEAS. Getting a score in the 80s will make you much more competitive in any program, regardless of whether...

    I haven't heard anything from towson yet, which makes me slightly nervous. I had been thinking I'd be a shoe in since I graduated from there, but I also know it's supposed to be very competitive...so...

    Part-time UMD program or Evening/Weekend CCBC, HCC program

    BusyBee91 replied to rls927's topic in Maryland Nursing

    If you already have a bachelors, check out UMBs CNL program. It's just under 2 years, but it's full time. It's pretty neat though, definitely poke around on their website if you haven't

    I did apply to the CNL program; I'm not sure if the BSN program does interviews or not. I realized after I jumped in this thread that most of you are applying to the BSN program - I started a CNL...
