Hi all. I am quite frustrated. I had an A&P II exam yesterday, and it was awful. Long story short, I did a Google search after taking the test and found a very large set of flashcards on cram.com that were made in 2011. I read through them, and ...

Also read the brick and mortar remark about my education above. I rest my case. Now please delete this thread.

There is a difference between offering a difference of opinion in a constructive way and doing it in a way that has that connotation. Regardless, I will be deleting my account. Clearly, questions are not wanted or welcomed on allnurses.

Clearly you can't ask questions or question something someone else does on here without being belittled in some form or fashion by at least one person. Kinda ridiculous.

There is no need to belittle anyone here.

Again, I understand. Thank you.

Okay, I get it. Thank you.

The main problem with this is that she says she makes her own tests. I forgot to add that above.

Hey guys...so, as the title says, I'm in a little bit of a pickle at the moment. I should find out in March/April whether or not I'm accepted into nursing school in the fall. I'm currently taking my final pre-reqs. My dilemma is financial. I'm 20 yea...

Waiting on mine as well!

I am currently a pre-nursing student. I have applied for fall 2015 and should be hearing something within the next few weeks. I went up to Virginia for a vacation over my spring break to visit a friend who recently moved from where I live. He lives w...

What classes/entrance exams do you have left? I've already taken the TEAS. I only have one class left (Micro), which I'm taking this summer. When will you begin submitting applications? I've already submitted my one and only application. I should h...

I sent you a PM!

Khan Academy should have some great stuff. I actually think there's a whole section on their website just for the TEAS. I'd also recommend watching some videos on YouTube and getting the online practice tests and doing those. They're $45 each, but v...

Great job! It's a killer test. I studied for mine for like two months. Had the ATI book and went through it cover to cover, watched Crash Course and Keshwani Prep Videos, Khan Academy, you name it. I did everything I knew to do to prepare. I got an 8...

I've been studying for the TEAS for almost a month now. I've done both practice tests in the study manual. I just took one of the online practice tests and scored 70% overall. Not happy. I know I need to focus on the math and science portions (mainly...

Hey! Sorry it took me so long to respond. My test wasn't bad. I scored an 80 overall. And no, the online ones are not the same as the ones in the book. They're more difficult but are VERY similar to the real test.

I also agree with above. ^ There is absolutely nothing wrong with being in school at 30. I would advise you not to take the TEAS again until you're prepared. Not only because you personally can only take it so many times, but also because it's a wa...

I strongly suggest that you get the TEAS study manual. It's made by ATI, which is the same company that makes the actual exam. It has sections for all topics covered on the test. It also comes with two practice tests in the back of the book. I studie...

Hey guys! I'm in A&P II right now and we just finished the digestive, endocrine, and reproductive systems. I made an 84 on that lecture exam, which I'm VERY proud of because the endocrine system is quite difficult. The class average was a 70. Now...

I second this. And I'm sorry. I know that has to be tough. I'm glad you have emotional support. Maybe there are some trustworthy friends who don't have kids who can help.

Thanks guys! I think I've made my decision. I'm going to take out loans for sure. I'm gonna do some more number crunching to figure out exactly how much I will need, but it should be in the neighborhood of 6k-10k for the full 2 years. No more than 10...

Thanks again guys! I feel like I'm pretty much ready to get out of food service. There's a job open at my school for a peer tutor that I'm going to look into. 8-12 hours a week, very flexible with my schedule. It's definitely something to consider. I...

Thanks for the input guys! I would qualify for a subsidized Stafford, so I wouldn't have to start paying until 6 months after graduation and I wouldn't have to pay interest during school. I am still thinking and weighing all my options.

Yeah, ours is a lot too. My first semester I only have clinical (one 12 hr) once a week, but other days I'll have skills labs and lecture classes. My second semester I'll have clinical twice (two 12 hrs) a week, in addition to the labs and lecture. S...
