    Welcome! Yes, that is the hardest part for me, my number two and three schools accept spring quarter, but I have put off applying to them because I wouldn't hear back from BC before

    No, I took the HPro class with the CPR and HIV training last winter. My job also keeps me up to date on CPR and First

    Welcome HopefulBE! Don't stress to much. It's intense, it can be overwhelming, and I've never taken a test like it before, but it's not horrible. PocketPrep makes a TEAS app for Android and IOS that...

    I found pocketprep's TEAS app helpful. It's less expensive than some options as well. Good luck on the retake. My retake didn't go so well. I ended up in the ER afterwards so I am stuck with my

    With a TEAS score like that I'm sure you'll be fine as long as all your paperwork is order. I am actually retaking the TEAS on the 14th as well. I only got an 85.3 the first time and want to improve...

  10. Why Do You Want To Be A Nurse?

    jaycam replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

    I have asthma, usually triggered by allergies. It didn't become bad until I was older. I think the first time I ended up in the ER I was 27. It was always the nurses that made my experience better or...

  11. How should I memorize or study for the TEAS-V?

    jaycam replied to estheryuki's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    ATI has a study guide which covers pretty much anything that can be on the test. They also have a couple of online practice tests you can get in their online store. I would say they are worth it,...

  12. Why did you choose nursing?

    jaycam replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

    I think I always knew I wanted to do something involving science, teaching, or healthcare, but the what was harder. After I graduated from high school, I worked for about 6 years as a caregiver. The...

    Hey everyone, I didn't see a thread for this yet so I thought I would start one. Is anyone else applying to BC for Fall 2014/Winter 2015 cohorts? I'm getting nervous with the deadline less than two...

  16. Regular Backpack versus Rolling Backpack

    jaycam replied to cate3624's topic in General Students

    I love this idea. It's important to be able to work with the other students as well. I'm worried I wont know any of my classmates as I can be a bit shy and may be nervous to even start this...

    jaycam replied to yourPhutureNurse_'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I went with the Littman Classic SE for mine as well. I got it from allheart.com. It was probably a bit of overkill for my CNA program, but I did not want to have to go out and get a new one for my...
