I have not posted on AN in a long time. For those pursuing nursing, I just want to say keep at it whether your in the program or doing pre reqs. I struggled for several years trying to get into nursing school and I am soon to finish my first quarter ...

Thanks Horseshoe for letting me know about my double thread. I tried to edit the first thread and thought I could just delete the first thread and post the edited thread. Also thank you for your condolences. Everyone has helped me to see the positive...

Yes Rose_Queen, my grandparents are both gone and the hardest part is knowing I can no longer see her or hear her. I will sure take that advice and see a therapist because unless I find a way to deal with her passing I may struggle to go forward whic...

Thanks so much for you sincere words, I am sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. Good for you for being able to stay strong through it all. It isthe hardest thing I've gone through because I felt like she was all I had in my life. When I am wa...

Hello future nursing students, current nursing students and nurses. I know no one can offer medical advice but I am in need of reassurance. I just lost my grandmother who had raised me and my brother in August. She was just 71, yes it maybe that she...

Thank you so much for your kind words. I know there have been times I wanted to give up because I never thought I would be successful until my actual first quarter of nursing school. My LPN program is accelerated. It is 15 months which is about the t...

Thank you for the response , I am about to take my last exam before the final exam which is comprehensive so it has been moving fast as I only have 3 weeks after Thanksgiving break. My program is 12 weeks long and it's amazing how different nursing s...

Hello fellow nursing and pre nursing students. I am excited to say thatvi will be starting a nursing program in August. I will be attending a non for profit private university. Its a great school. They are expensive, however they offer many scholarsh...

Hello everyone! I am wanting to express my concerns and that I am excited as I approach my TEAS date. I take it March 22nd. I am counting days and I study everyday. I have almost conquered Math, English and Reading with science I am really good with ...

I think for me it was feeling rushed. I am not good at the timed tests so I am working on that to overcome my challenge. I feel if I was given more time I would do better.But with the TEAS that's not possible so I am trying to figure out my weak area...

Yeah I fear to share on here because I didn't do well. I ended up with a 56% didn't pass. I got in everything went well what I though but I was shocked when I got the results. I struggled with it IMO. I think it is because I struggle with timed tests...

I am set to take my teas tommorrow . I am applying to Fort Wayne and I may apply to others that are within distance. I was thinking Southbend, Logansport, and Kokomo campuses. If I don't get in for fall I plan to apply for next spring. I am very conc...

I am beginning to feel more comfortable as test time approaches thanks to everyone's great advice. I have 4 days left so I take every available moment I have and study. I find that the more questions I do the better I get at it so thanks again everyo...

So here I am ready to apply to the nursing program and sm debating if I should transfer to a private university that has an ASN or stay at my cc to applyv. I am really stressed about it many former students at my cc are transferring to this private u...

Thank you for this great advice. I am lucky to be where I am at such a great school, I am glad Scottishtape asked me about the Nclex pass rates before I made any rash decisions. As PP has said it is crucial that these schools be on top of things whe...

Thank you for bringing that question up. I looked up the Nclex pass rates of the 2 schools and I am glad I did. My cc has a 90.6% pass rate as of 2015. The private college has a 79.7% pass rate as of 2015. Quite a difference. Yeah my school is compet...

Thanks Rose_Queen, I know it is highly expensive there are not many choices of nursing schools in my area. There are like three that are accredited Indiana Purdue Fort Wayne, University of Saint Francis which is the one that is $12,000 a semester and...

Yeah there are some questions on the phone app practice test and ATI practice tests that really threw me off. Stuff about Introns, Codons, G1 Phase, S Phase, G2 Phase etc. Lol when it comes to those in depth Chemistry questions I guess at it not a g...
