  1. Just received a A D+ in psychology

    Retake
  2. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    #4 on the wait list with an 84.0% on the TEAS!!!! I hope I can get accepted!!! Congratulations everyone :) hard work does pay
  3. Take the TEAS now or wait?

    Study and take it as soon as you can to "get it over with." I believe some schools have a time limit, though. Make sure it is within a year of applying to nursing school. Good
  4. Can i still apply

    It depends where you're applying. Are you applying to your university's nursing program or the community college's nursing program? Talk with your advisor at the school which you wish to apply to....
  5. Help, any advice? Might fail a class twice.

    Does it count towards your nursing prereqs for your college or is it just a prereq for a class such as statistics that you need to take. If it counts, can you take it a 3rd time. If so, it sounds like...
  6. Definitely
  7. In nursing school, the professors/instructors don't just say, "Here's the material, learn it on your own, and you have an exam in 2 days." They present material in lectures and explain it in great...
  8. Well, if you were a microbiology major and did not understand intro to microbiology, then yes, that would affect your preparation. Being a nursing major, however, is different. The way to prep for...
  9. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Ok seriously! Why! Why are they making us wait this
  10. The TEAS Test, why does it make or break?

    It definitely depends on the school. I agree with the silliness of how big of a deal it is for some schools. But more competitive programs at universities will look at many other factors, such as GPA,...
  11. Your knowledge of the material will not completely affect your time in nursing school. The important thing is your ending grade! I'd say just do your very best on that final and if you receive a C or...
  12. Bring extra things anyway, just in case. But, when I took the TEAS, they supplied the scrap paper and pencils. No calculators allowed. They had us lock our things in the locker. Agreed with Shinnichi...
  13. Employer tuition reimbursement question

    It the Seattle area, as far as things I've heard about reimbursement are concerned, the hospitals don't pay for schooling anymore. The unions, however, do. At the hospital I'm a CNA at, for example,...
  14. Cold Feet

    Maybe it is because you are afraid of failing. You may be afraid and nervous about the unknown. If nursing is for you and it's what you want to do, go for it. Those couple years of schooling will go...
  15. If you have the money and time, do it! What could it hurt? If it doesn't work out, at least you know you tried. I know a woman at Washington State University's nursing program who was 55. I know...
  16. How do I become and RN?

    I'm in the same area as you but now living in the Seattle area. Start at Central to take your prerequisites for another 4-year university's BSN (bachelor's of science in nursing) program or an ADN...
  17. Humor during finals

    This is great, thanks for the good laugh
  18. How many pre-req classes

    I've taken several more than what's needed for nursing pre-reqs because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do before. There's no way of getting out of the pre-reqs before pre-reqs. For example, if you...
  19. Nursing schools in my area do not frown on re-taking classes. I believe that's true for mostly everywhere. I suggest asking your counselor/advisor. Over here in WA state, there is a time limit on how...
  20. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Still waiting...... la la la going crazy over
  21. CNA 'tudes

    I am a young CNA and nursing student and definitely have experienced this. I also hear comments from many CNA's such as, "well we are the one's doing all the work" and " we spend the most time with...
  22. A&P or Micro?

    A&P tip: study a little EVERY day, even if it's just for 30
  23. Which specialty would you like to end up in?

    critical care nursing. I'd love to go to grad school and learn more about a nurse anesthetist program,
  24. Top nursing schools

    Great,
  25. Thoughts and prayers sent your way :-) Nursing IS possible for you no matter what. Look for financial aid possibilities and start prerequisites for nursing at a community college. You can save money...
