That's reasonable. Just wanted to let you know, northwest university in Kirkland takes applicants even past the priority deadline (which was in January I think) on a first come, first serve basis. It's Wayyyy too long a commute from Spokane though. ...

No there aren't really any topics that I could suggest to focus on. Maybe brush up on NG tubes and trachs... And a little on the Chem levels like BUN, creatinine, sodium, ect... 1 math question. 2or 3 select all that apply a lot of teach concepts ...

I'm confused at to why you didn't get in. I would apply to UW if I were you. They generally take stats like you'd from what I read. Northwest university is pretty easy to get into.

I took both earlier this week. I found the med-surg ATI to be more difficult. It did do the practice test which helped some but not much.

You can totally do it! It it will probably come as a blessing because it gives you a break from the kids for a little. I have a 3 year old, almost 2 year old and a 3 month old. You can do it.

I wish I wrote my ideas as elegantly as the poster above me, however I still do not regret what I said.

I wish I had the time to read through all the comments however my 3 month old just fell asleep and I have to start studying (it's 11pm BTW). If it helps at all I am a Christian and believe in the commitment of marriage. However, I need to say that yo...

To be a little more specific, you can transfer schools while doing prerequisites. And like the previous poster said, not all classes might transfer and it could happen that you would need to repeat certain courses. But this isn't as bad as it seems i...

No way... That's crazy high!

Percocet makes me itch, but only very mildly. I would feel it just as the drug hits it's onset time. The itching never really bothered me though, only my face would get itchy and more so my cheeks. I don't know if that helps any. what I really can't ...

My BSN program requires 80% and a GPA maintained above a 3.0 at all times. An A is 94%+ so basically it's almost impossible to get an A. A B- is like 84%-80% and is 2.8 grade points so we need to stay on top of our game and get above a 85% to keep ou...

I didn't read the thread because I don't have time to but I don't think it was right. It seems this instructor is primarily working through military/ scare tactic. The school setting should be a safe environment to learn in. Now you weren't killing y...

Coming from a big family I learned how to defend my food. Now if I were you I would call the little squirt into your office during lunch and lick your food in from of them. Pretend like it's normal. I'm sure they will never touch your food again. T...

...shoot myth or not I am not going to risk it, I'm getting my BSN I prefer the role of a RN either way.

Phasing out of LPN is not a myth. Some areas might still heavily utilities them but only for so much longer.... Given some more time and they won't be able to hold their own ground anymore. Since the OP is young then it would be advisable NOT to do L...

I didn't read the whole thread but I just have to say I love my CNM! So she's obviously a ARNP and has the education that makes me feel safe she knows what she's doing. I prefer her by far than any OBGYN. All my 3 labored were amazing and I felt so t...

I have a 3 year old (just turned 3 this week), a 19 month old, and a newborn:dummy1: and I'm in my second semester in a BSN program. It's possible as long as your determined. I'm not the smartest person by farrrrrr but I keep getting myself back up a...

P.S. I have nothing against LPNs. I know many LPNs personally and I love them dearly... My own mother is one. But all of them have always encouraged students to seek a RN degree instead of LPN and many seem unsatified with this degree and wished that...

Skip the LPN... You will waste your time and money. Consider a BSN first or an ASN second. I would never consider an LPN degree if your young and able to commit to a BSN or associates program. In Washington state I don't even know if they have very ...

You mean to tell me that yawning movement is normal? I'm asking seriously (nursing student) my second child would do this all the time, especially when she was sick. I had the exact same situation you explained above (except I didn't want to be admit...

Lol, I've been in this same situation MANY times. So frustrating.

I don't know how to put this nicely and in a way for you to understand me correctly.... I'm reading a lot of "I want...," "I don't wanna," "I want this and this and this." Do you think your probably being immature? You seem to know everything... But...

Mine are so young (3 under 3) that I count on them forgetting. For my oldest I take time for the little things like listening to her when she wants to whisper in my ear or to following her when she wants to show me something. Her attention span is sh...

I agree with the previous posters. Go do your prerequisites at a community college and get excellent grades in those classes. This will save you a ton of money and will not have a big negative effect on getting accepted to university. Once you have...

I'm not sure what area you are from however on the west coast a 3.0 is not a decent GPA. Every program I'm looked into requires a minimum 3.0 to apply. A decent GPA would be something above a 3.5 in my humble opinion. And a competitive TEAS score is ...
