  1. A bit concerned about my age beginning nursing school...

    HelloWish replied to mical's topic in General Students

    That is how I felt going back to community college for my pre-reqs. I am 37 years old and once I got back into it, it was not big deal. It seems some of the younger students will look to you for help...

  3. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    Ladyflyer, I have a question for you about the application process if you don't mind. BTW, I live near Flower Mound in Argyle/Lantana. So on my degree audit they used a class in which I made a C for...

  4. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    I emailed ***** at Gainesville today, and she said the print out was fine. From ******, "The degree audit doesn’t have to be official. A copy will be fine. You won’t have to make an appointment....

  5. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    I never received my degree audit on paper. I had to go to see the nursing adviser at the Corinth campus and she printed one out for me. Do we have to apply at the Gainesville campus or can we do it an...

  7. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    The drive to NCTC for me is about 45 minutes, but that beats an hour to hour and a half in Dallas traffic! I took micro at the Gainesville campus and never once had to deal with traffic, so that is...

  8. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    I have looked at the SAT writing book. I try to study a little bit every week for the Kaplan if I can. The reading section of the Kaplan study guide is what I heard is most like the actual exam. I...

  9. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    From what I have read and heard the Kaplan review is useless except for reading comprehension. I actually picked up a Kaplan SAT writing book. I deliberately set myself up to take A&P II as my...

  10. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    Norwirn2, I have heard the nursing director say the Kaplan is harder than the HESI and in my opinion it will be easier than the Teas V. I think this because the Teas V contains all the sciences and...

  11. NCTC ADN Fall 2014

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hi, yes I have been to 2 advising sessions, one about a year ago the other yesterday just to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. If you haven't been to one, I suggest you go to Gainesville instead...

    HelloWish replied to Shine_On's topic in Texas Nursing

    I am applying for the Fall ADN program. I recently saw an adviser and she said that 10 priority points is high enough to be invited to test for the Kaplan. According to the adviser, 10 points are some...

  14. How Blood Pressure is Regulated

    HelloWish replied to Bloodworks's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think they all maintain blood pressure. However, if I were answering the question based on the answers given, I would chose urinary. I am taking A&P II and we are studying the urinary system....

  15. What do you think of fibromyalgia?

    HelloWish replied to Emergent's topic in Health, Stress Management

    My allergist says I may have an atypical case of fibromyalgia. I have suffered from chronic fatigue and pain literally all my life. Most people who know me have no clue that I suffer from this, as I...

  16. Texas Health Resources Residency July 2013

    HelloWish replied to newGN2012's topic in Texas Nursing

    I am not yet in nursing school. Do they cover what makes a competitive candidate for residency programs? Does THR accept ADNs enrolled in a BSN program? Good luck

  18. Future of ADN programs

    HelloWish replied to seh8017's topic in General Students

    No. I think most will develop bridge programs to universities. My community college is doing that and I am able to save about 10,000 by going there and then bridging to

  19. Nursing School Uniforms And Their Fate After School

    HelloWish replied to RunBabyRN's topic in General Students

    If you donate your uniform to the school you are graduating from, then someone who can't afford to pay for uniforms will have something to use. I am sure they can find a way to work around a patch...

    I am not a nursing student yet and I know smell is something I am going to have to overcome too. I am planning to buy Thieves oil spray to carry with me, which a blend of essential oils which will...

  22. Muscles easier than bones??

    HelloWish replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think it was easier. Not to scare you, but I just felt that A&P I just kept getting harder. I kept thinking to myself, it has to get easier after this...and it didn't. However I made it...

  23. 4 week A&P Course?

    HelloWish replied to Malacy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It can be done. I took an 8 week class and studied about 40 hours a week. I really regret it, because it is only enough time to learn to pass exams and not something that will stick to long term...

    HelloWish replied to mikemeyer09's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hi - I just started looking at El Centro's ADN program today. I didn't realize that nursing students could go to Northlake, is that true? Am I understanding correctly? I wish I had known sooner, and I...
