  1. Being depressed

    Two years is pretty short when you're in the program. Keep your eye on the prize. The time will pass anyways so as long as you continually work towards your goals, that's what matters the
  2. How should use study package from ATI?

    Np! You can do as many practice tests you like as long as you keep reviewing your mistakes and going over the topics you missed again. I ended up doing over 15 practice tests within 2 weeks and much...
  3. How should use study package from ATI?

    No, don't take assessment B yet. I think you can easily improve your math and English since those two basically follow strict rules. Learn those rules in the official TEAs guide book before you take...
  4. is the actual teas easier than the booklet

    I thought the actual test was easier too but at same time, I thought it was because I studied a lot more after taking the book practice tests. Don't let our answers make you feel relief and you slack...
  5. Taking chem, a&p1 & then some

    Usually they recommend not taking two sciences in one semester but I always question, why not? If you think you can do it, go for it. Just make sure you are organized, keep up with the material daily...
  6. Is pursuing a BSN smart in 2016

    I think the main question is, are you satisfied with where you are right now in your career? If not nursing, what other fields are you considering? Also, do you have a passion for nursing? You need to...
  7. When did you take the TEAS V?

    I thought it was for entry into a program. I've never heard of it being needed to get into a prerequisite class. What school is this exactly? There might be some
  8. does a prestigious RN program benefit at all??

    Actually, I hear the opposite. Program quality helps you immensely, both in preparing for the NCLEX and also your future job. Why does it matter if he got into an expensive school with low gpa and you...
  9. Sacramento State Spring 2016 Application

    What a shame . Sorry to hear that! Your score is still pretty competitive for now so I don't think you need to worry about it! Good luck in next round of applications. One semester off isn't too bad....
  10. Taking a year off; will it help or hurt?

    Well, if you feel unsure about the nursing field itself, then taking a year off to get work experience and more perspective would be good. But if you feel that your application won't be strong enough...
  11. I took the Teas before taking micro. The micro on the Teas are very basic stuff. I read a tiny basic book on intro to micro and I was okay with that. A&P2 was mainly covered in the official TEAs...
  12. Let's not immediately assume that OP is incapable based on a few words of needing to repeat some classes. I know a few people that had to repeat classes. They would become excellent nurses imo because...
  13. I want to be a nurse

    Tutors are there to assist you; majority of them won't judge. That's your low self esteem talking. In fact, I bet if you reveal your weaknesses and fears to them, many tutors will be more than happy...
  14. I don't think you should give up right away. Assess why you failed the class and try again. We all fail sometimes but if we give up after that one failure, we wouldn't be where we are right now in...
  15. TEAS V Advice?

    Math is basically following a logical set of steps to obtain a solution from a problem. The Teas test mainly contains simple math problems that are covered in the ATI manual and keshwani YouTube...
  16. Grades are in! How did you do?

    A in micro. That class was quite frustrating for me
  17. What helped you do well in Chemistry?

    I had a very methodical approach to studying chemistry that worked really well for my class structure. Incoming students who have followed my approach did well in the class too (so I was told). My...
  18. Why are you a nurse and not a doctor?

    That's good that you realize your potential. If you feel you can go and be a doctor, by all means, do it! Many people told me I have the potential to be much more than "just" a nurse and a lot of my...
  19. To old for nursing school?

    I've met students at my community college who were in their late forties, early fifties. They are doing great in their classes. Ignore the people who try to set you back and don't compare yourself to...
  20. How is the TEAS V timed?

    Teas test is timed section by section. You'll need to time yourself and not rely on the one online. And especially do so in reading. I didn't really practice timing myself and had to rush near the end...
  21. Depends on the school. Some requires you have your classes done recently and others (like mine) only look at your prerequisites for nursing so they disregard student's grades outside of those...
  22. You've done a lot outside of class which is good and can help you get in. I'd say just do your best on the TEAs and GRE and apply to as much schools as you can. Don't limit yourself to those three...
  23. Urgently need help!

    I don't think that would disqualify you; it'll just make your application a tad weaker. Just put no experience and see what
  24. Favorite ways to study for A&P and biology

    By myself: my professors usually give either study guides or list of topics we are supposed to know. I do the study guides thoroughly after each lecture using lecture notes, any ppt slides, handouts...
