  1. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I'm definitely not looking into getting living loans because like you, I'm against getting into debt that I don't need to be in. As far as putting off enrollment goes, I've already put it off for...

  2. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I actually just switched to State Farm! Their rates are fantastic for my age group. I had Progressive and they didn't offer anything. I asked for a student discount and they said that they have...

  3. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Rent, but I already live with my boyfriend. He pays the rent and I pay cable, utilities, and groceries. Can't do much cost-cutting in that area. I have a high volume of bills from old medical bills...

  4. Teas test?

    mirandaaa replied to EllePNto2b's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    First thing is first, go online and buy the ATI study manual. It's seriously a lifesaver and tells you everything. One thing though, the TEAS asks some very specific questions and the study manual is...

  5. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    SunriseDay, getting loans for school isn't an issue; I do that every semester. What I'm saying is that I cannot cut my hours to part time and get loans through a bank to pay my monthly bills, and the...

  6. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Because of my age I don't have a high enough credit score to take out that high amount of loans for the next two years while I'm in school (on top of my car loan and growing student

  7. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Thank you for all of your input! Please note that I do understand that I may need to adjust my job around school, this post was merely to see if anyone else was able to work similar hours and attend...

  9. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I'm not looking for business hours as an RN. I'm actually planning on 7p-7a shifts as an RN. I was asking in regards to working business hours during school

  10. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I've got some time. I may even be stressing myself out for no reason since I haven't even been accepted yet. I was just hoping someone with a similar situation would pop up and give me...

  11. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I am a CNA. I did it for three years and made half of what I make now and the hours aren't flexible. 12 hour shifts and set schedules are all I've found and nowhere near the pay that I currently make....

  12. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately that isn't an option without waiting 3 more years. This is the only school near me that will do a dependency override for financial aid that I've found. Because I'm under 25, not...

  13. Able To Work Business Hours?

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    I was afraid of that. I have a great job; salary, benefits, really easy and the most money I've ever made (I don't stick with it because it's not something I'm passionate about for a life career). I...

  14. APHY 101 - Ivy Tech Topics

    mirandaaa replied to Theycallmemommi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ahh another Ivy Tech-er! Good luck! That's going to be super difficult cramming so much information into an 8 week session so stay dedicated and

  15. To Teas or not to Teas

    mirandaaa replied to feeneishia's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I agree with krrbrr. It depends on all the requirements. For my school, acceptance is largely based on the TEAS score so the higher the

  16. Another topic about all 3 shifts. Not just Day vs. Night

    mirandaaa replied to Starletta's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Hi Starletta, 7a-3p was my least favorite shift, but was also the shift that seemed to go the quickest. In my opinion, it is also the most difficult because right when you get there, you're hustling...

  17. Dealing with a best friend who is less than supportive

    mirandaaa replied to dc1994's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't give up on a friendship because of something like that. Everyone will have different opinions on what you want to do and unfortunately, they won't all be supportive. I suggest just talking...

  18. Should I take Medical Terminology for nursing school?

    mirandaaa replied to MntEMStoBSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took MedTerm last semester and I'm so so so happy I did. Although it wasn't required, I took it and it made a world of difference. It was very helpful in my other classes like A&P and when...

  19. My final steps - nervous as hell

    mirandaaa replied to sweetbriar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi sweetbriar, This is not meant to be taken the wrong way, but it's refreshing to me to see that others have issues with "naysayers" in their schooling journey. My family were supportive of my...

  20. TEAS V before A&P I, II

    mirandaaa replied to studentbear's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Well, I took A&PI prior, but there really aren't many APHY questions in the Science section. I want to say maybe 5 total? You can probably get by without taking the classes first (but they are...

  21. Going from a University to a CC?

    mirandaaa replied to haelimjeong95's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agreed. A lot of places don't care so much where you went to school as long as your grades were good throughout and you passed the NCLEX at the

  22. My TEAS V Score (Pt. 1)

    mirandaaa posted a topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I took my TEAS today! After a lot of research and preparation, I finally did it! My Adjusted Individual Total Score: 77.3% National Average: 64.3% Program Average: 64.9% 83rd percentile. My Reading:...

  23. Spinoff From "Don't Be That Nurse"

    mirandaaa posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    After reading that post, it really got me thinking abut the nurses that I've worked with in the past and my experiences with them. There was another post elsewhere on this site asking if being a CNA...

  24. What is the best app to help study for the teas v exam?

    mirandaaa replied to ginna121's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    There's a great one for Apple called TEAS Mastery. The free version lets you experience what the app is like and then you can purchase the full version for $9.99. It's a really great app and goes over...

  25. Recommendations for a student that started with C's but ended with A's

    mirandaaa replied to MayaNino's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that's crazy you can't retake a class if you desire to regardless of grades! Maybe you can look into taking those classes again at another school and transfer the credits where
