  5. Is this a bad grade?

    ahs2015 replied to Tinkk's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    My personal opinion is that the TEAS is a difficult test. I studied for about six weeks before I took the test and thought I did horrible. I ended up making an 83. I think the national average TEAS...

  6. WGU Not Passed

    ahs2015 replied to Jsamps's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry to hear that they weren't more flexible. Are you in the RN-BSN program or the BSN Prelicensure program? I've heard good things about UTA so hopefully that will provide a better academic path...

  7. WGU Not Passed

    ahs2015 replied to Jsamps's topic in General Students

    Can I ask why you had a bad experience at WGU? I'm looking into the school and am curious about your experience. My thoughts that a class showing "not passed" will not transfer but I would confirm...

  8. Why Am I so confused!!

    ahs2015 replied to TiaRenee's topic in General Nursing

    The first thing you need to do is get a nursing degree. You can get an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), however, many hospitals in TX are aiming for 80% of...

    ahs2015 replied to heatherisbetter's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    How common are other anesthesia related injuries that do not result in death? For example, I'm wondering if it's somewhat common to have a patient experience paralysis from an epidural. That's just...

  11. Working From Home?

    ahs2015 replied to DouglasC's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, your comment was incredibly rude and uncalled for. If you have no advice to offer or cannot answer the OP's question then there's no need to comment. OP, I have heard many of the larger...

  13. Wearing skirts as a nurse

    ahs2015 replied to purplescrubs15's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    My father is similar to your parents in his very strict, conservative, Christian views of clothing and a variety of other things. I was allowed to wear pants growing up so my situation is not exactly...

  14. Working overnight and all day classes

    ahs2015 replied to Kevonn's topic in General Nursing

    If you got home from school by 4:00, were asleep by 4:30 pm and slept until 9 pm that is 4.5 hours of sleep a night. That's not sustainable for five out of seven days a week. Lack of sleep effects...

    ahs2015 replied to db7255's topic in School, College Programs

    It depends on the school you want to go to. They all require a minimum GPA and obviously the higher your GPA the more competitive you are as a candidate. Do you know where you want to get your...

    ahs2015 replied to Pairofshues's topic in Texas Nursing

    Congratulations on the move. I've lived in the Dallas suburbs most of my life. Though it is a long drive from the VA Hospital I would highly recommend the Frisco or Plano school districts. I moved to...

    ahs2015 replied to marypoppins08's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I was also going to ask how you got a NICU job as a new grad. It's one of my goals but I have heard it's difficult to get into NICU as a new grad. Any advice or tips you have would be

  19. Student Loans

    ahs2015 replied to andry754's topic in General Students

    Sorry, I misread your post. I was thinking tuition would be $65K, including the discount. If tuition is actually half of $65K, then I think that is reasonable for a

    ahs2015 replied to tlee2017's topic in General Students

    ahs2015 replied to Laureani's topic in General Students
