  1. NCTC ADN Fall 2013

    HelloWish replied to jls0459's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey y'all - I hope your first semester is going well! I am hoping someone can share their class schedule and clinical schedule for the 1st semester. I am trying to decide if I need to get on my son's...

  2. TWU Dallas Fall 2014 Applicants

    HelloWish replied to SweetiePie26's topic in School, College Programs

    I live in Argyle, near the Denton campus. I am applying to NCTC first and then hopefully bridging, as that gives me the opportunity to do clinicals in hospitals where I hope to work. If for some...

  3. UTA gpa questions.

    HelloWish replied to hoyree35's topic in School, College Programs

    There are a lot of things that factor into acceptance. You can go to UTA's website and look up what you need to do to be accepted and they list many considerations that boost your competitiveness. If...

  4. TWU Dallas Fall 2014 Applicants

    HelloWish replied to SweetiePie26's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't think I will have the stats to get into TWU, but I may apply anyway. So I am following this thread to see the statistics of applicants who are accepted. Good luck

  5. How is having a dog during nursing school?

    HelloWish replied to remotefuse's topic in General Students

    It sounds as if you will be gone most of the time. Pack animals need a pack - and you being gone most of the time may cause behavior problems! I think it would be prudent to wait until you are done...

  6. What class to take first Bio, Chem, or A&P? Help!

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

    If I had to do it over again, I would take chem first. All the other sciences required are based in some way from chem. Then take biology, and IMO this order will create success in A&P I and II....

  7. Difference between BSN and ADN

    HelloWish replied to SaraStevenson's topic in General Students

    I chose an ADN program to begin with, because the situation works out better for me. However, I am also bridging to a BSN directly following the ADN and hope to get some tuition reimbursement while...

  8. Do you actually study A&P book for exam? or you just refer to it?

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

    It totally depends on how your professor tests...I have read all the material for my science

  9. Titer questions: TDaP

    HelloWish posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going to start my vaccines in November. Can someone please explain to me why I cannot get a titer for TDaP?

  10. How can a W affect me?

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

    If you only have one W on your transcript, but otherwise a 4.0, it shouldn't be a problem. You might want to check with your nursing school of choice

  11. Should I follow my heart?

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

    My opinion is that you should go for your dreams but have a back up plan. If you connect with nursing, then it is worthwhile to explore. There is no reason that you cannot have both options in your...

  12. Immuization requirement before starting the program at uta

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

    Check out the website and the online BSN Student handbook which list the immunization requirements. If you have a question you will need to talk to the nursing department there. Congrats on...

  13. A&P - Bones, Time... Need some Encouragement!

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

    I remember feeling freaked out when we got to bones and muscles - however I was also taking an 8 week class for A&P I. I don't make note cards, as I feel it takes up way too much valuable time for...

  14. Science ADVICE! Where to begin.....

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

    I disagree about doing well in science courses due to reading the OPs mentioned books. I can also say I have read probably the same amount of books that all touched on physiology, nutrition, the brain...

  15. Science ADVICE! Where to begin.....

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

    If I had to do it over again, I would take chemistry first! It will help make all the other sciences easier. I would take biology 2nd and then A&P I, II and micro. I don't think you can do much...

  16. When do you usually finish your tests?

    HelloWish replied to bluesky94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took my first microbiology exam last week. I wasn't one of the first to finish - I'd say I was in the first 1/3 - 1/2 to finish and got one of the highest scores. I went back and rechecked...

  17. Is it Right for me?

    HelloWish replied to FutureNurse6145's topic in General Students

    Hi - you would benefit from speaking with an adviser at your college about how to fulfill the steps for going to nursing school. The steps vary per college and

  18. is a 4.0 GPA in prerequisites mandatory for nursing school

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

    It depends on the program. In my area, for BSN and ADN programs, they state that a 3.0 is required to get in but the actual statistics of those that get accepted is 3.8 to 4.0 due to the high number...

  19. Kaplan Exam Question - 2013 - HELP!

    HelloWish replied to mzjaerock's topic in School, College Programs

    I suggest getting the Kaplan: Math for Nurses: A Skill-Builder and Reference Guide for Dosage Calculation It walks you through all the basic

  20. Is it just me? Or am I studying too much?

    HelloWish replied to 078207's topic in General Students

    Yes, A&P is highly time consuming! I always felt I could use more study time for that class. However, if your professor has any learning objectives for each unit - that is very helpful to focus...

  21. 2.85 GPA Trying to go to nursing school

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

    I would look for a nursing school that accepts applicants on a point system. If you have mostly A's and some B's in the classes that they look at to calculate the point system, then you will have a...

  22. What has been your favorite prerequisite?

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

    So far it is microbiology - I have a really interesting

  23. ADN now or BSN later?

    HelloWish replied to Murse Wannabe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree, the cost of the ADN plus the BSN bridge is going to be way less than a straight BSN at a 4 year university (here entrance into the university programs requires some points for attending their...

  24. ADN now or BSN later?

    HelloWish replied to Murse Wannabe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I decided to start with an ADN because the circumstances work out better for my situation. Many ADN programs in my area now have bridge programs to complete the BSN. The program I hope to get into...
