  1. completed all prerequisites this week for the BSN ! what about you?

    RunBabyRN replied to carefulcare's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations! That's a great feeling! Are you starting a program soon? I did mine slowly, so it took a good 10 years or so. There were some breaks along the way. Now I'm one semester away from...

  2. Does National Accredited and Regionally Accredited really matter?

    RunBabyRN replied to Ariel09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    National accreditation is very important. Are there any LVN-BSN programs? I haven't seen any in CA; just RN-BSN. Even some LVN-RN programs have been closed. It might be good to look up, because...

  3. Need a Quick Help on Registering for TEAS Test!!!

    RunBabyRN replied to hoyree35's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Look for another exam site. That one only allows students at that school. Some testing sites are that

  4. how long do i need to study for teas test?

    RunBabyRN replied to Hibbzem17's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I took a few days. I read the ATI study guide cover to cover and marked the stuff I felt I needed to spend time on, then focused on that. I think it was maybe two days of that at the most, and I got...

  5. First time TEAS score

    RunBabyRN replied to virgo7598's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Make sure your program allows repeated attempts. Each school is different. Make sure they'll also look at your HIGHEST score- sometimes they don't. It's really important to look at this stuff, and...

  6. Teas V vs job.

    RunBabyRN replied to heyitsme728's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I completely agree. There are a ton of major exams, research papers, reports, etc throughout nursing school, and of course, it's a high stress/anxiety job. I think working and tackling the anxiety...

  8. Class help !!!

    RunBabyRN replied to Sola8729's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I wouldn't take a class until you're closer to taking the exam. I didn't take a class, but I bought the study book that ATI published, and it was really helpful. That way you can start going through...

  9. I made it!

    RunBabyRN replied to AngelofSeduction's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I also meant to say, when questions about prioritizing patients come up, think about, "Which patient is most likely to die

  10. I made it!

    RunBabyRN replied to AngelofSeduction's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Bear with me, as I'm a semester behind you, but some of this has come up for me, too. Prioritizing comes with experience. You develop the "eyes" for a patient whose condition is worsening or who is...

  11. Well, my friends, I did it!

    RunBabyRN replied to Levitas's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yay!!

  12. Do you get a CNA license after the first semester of RN school?

    RunBabyRN replied to EMT-PJean's topic in General Students

    Depends on where you are. Our program requires a CNA before you start, and many programs are starting to require

  13. What can I do to raise my self confidence?

    RunBabyRN replied to doxielover304's topic in General Students

    I do this too. I tell them they have the "student advantage" today, and they always like that. One thing you might want to do over the break is review some of the skills videos and get down what you...

  14. Suggested new NANDA diagnosis

    RunBabyRN replied to JoseQuinones's topic in General Students

    I remember second semester, our M/S instructor told us to take a day a week to ourselves. We all got a good laugh out of that one! SMH. What kind of reality do these instructors think we

  15. How do you take NOTES in class during Nursing Scool?

    RunBabyRN replied to NursingStoodent's topic in General Students

    I was taking mine on a Word document, but since my instructors post their PowerPoints, now I will go through the slides during lecture, and write my notes corresponding to that slide in the notes...

  16. What do you say when.....

    RunBabyRN replied to cjcaet's topic in General Students

    You have to respect it. It doesn't happen often, but it does happen. It's rarely anything against you personally, and there are always other

  17. I am an RN! NCLEX Tips and Tricks Just For You!!

    RunBabyRN replied to healthstar's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Awesome tips! Thanks for sharing! For all those posting for him to send you these tips, you can copy and paste all of them (see his comments in beige with more tips!) into your very own Word...

  18. Note Taking??

    RunBabyRN replied to amanda1102's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Recording the lecture can help to cover the gaps of what you miss. You might even be able to take pics of any visuals with your phone, which is something I've done. I used a laptop in class, and I...

  19. Concerned about being able to continue education

    RunBabyRN replied to eacue's topic in School, College Programs

    As long as your program is accredited, you should be okay. Hang in

  20. Need help on where to get my RN from in Sac, CA

    RunBabyRN replied to MPatton1's topic in School, College Programs

    All of the programs are impacted. Cast as wide a net as you possibly can. DON'T go the vocational route. Jobs are hard to come by, and they're expensive, as are private universities. Make sure...

  21. Just starting.

    RunBabyRN replied to ChileanCbass's topic in School, College Programs

    There are some courses, including the actual program, that CANNOT be taken online and be accredited. Many of the prereqs, namely anatomy, physiology, micro, biology, and chemistry, are required to...

  22. Not sure where to start

    RunBabyRN replied to koyukuk's topic in School, College Programs

    It might be good to consider where you're open to living, AND what the job market is like in the area. Where I live, there's a really good junior college program (I'm in the local university program),...

  23. Applying to multiple nursing programs.

    RunBabyRN replied to bekahg09's topic in School, College Programs

    You may have already answered your own question, but just in case you haven't, here it is. The TEAS V score counts for all of them, you just need to get transcripts sent to all of the schools you're...

  24. Rumors I heard about getting denied entrance?

    RunBabyRN replied to nurse2016?'s topic in School, College Programs

    Where did you hear this? Most programs will work with you; at least I know mine has worked with people. Talk to the programs, instead of taking people's statements at face

  25. hopeful future nursing student needs help with school plans

    RunBabyRN replied to lessthanfiction's topic in School, College Programs

    Take a look at the specific programs you're applying for. What they look at varies widely. I found that universities don't really care about Ws, some care more than others about repeated prereqs,...
