    Panalitos, I just bought the ATI study manual. I also liked Keshwani Prep on YouTube for math review-he goes over every single question in the manual. I think the online practice exam was worth the...

    Sooooo..... do they send an email letting us know our completed application was received or only if something is missing?! Waiting is always the hardest part. :) Hope everyone had a great

    GrenIedGal replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

    Well... we wait! I wish they confirmed receiving the application. I mean, I can see it was 'picked up at post office' but I'd like an email from admissions saying received. LOL. Oh well,...

    What is your CNA experience? And you'll have much more accumulated by the end of the year or start of the program. I'm sure they consider that (at least I hope!) i think many of us are in the same...

    Snwbal, I mailed mine off today too!... it felt good and I took a deep breath, wishing myself calm patience during the next phase: the waiting!

    Rgorski, sorry to hear about the math section. I too ran out of time and I know it's because I *did* every problem instead of quickly eliminating answers on the ones that I could and working from...

    GrenIedGal replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

    Good plan!!! I too had extra time on all the practice exams, but I made the mistake of "doing" every problem. Just keep it in mind. All the other sections I had LOTS of leftover time. I'm doing the...

    GrenIedGal replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

    Aje, I was VERY nervous about the science and I too love science. The practice tests are hard. I think they were almost harder than the actual test. The chem questions were the ones I always got...

    Here's a random question that popped up in our family recently and I thought I'd reach out to you guys to see if you knew. What if you ended up moving to a state- outside the one you're residing in...

    I wish I had a 4.0! I got a B in my Intro to Psych course when I was a baby freshman, lol. So sadly, that affects my GPA for nursing admissions. Most of my other grades are very good tho, and all of...

    Our skills test always starts with handwashing as your 1st skill. There are a total of 5, so only 4 others. Apparently there is always a 'measurement, an easier skill and a harder one, plus a random...

    GrenIedGal replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

    Well the TEAS went fine. Tiring, yes, but not incredibly difficult. I was upset that I didn't get to finish the math--all of the other sections I had a lot of time to spare. This was reflective in my...
