    No, I did not know that. They never talked to me about orientation being on the 12th of November. As a matter of fact, as soon as they changed the deadline on the compass scores, I haven't heard them...

    Your scores were very good so be encouraged to retest & apply. I'm currently working as a CNA myself but I work in home health because working in the hospitals and nursing homes is alot of hard...

    Yes, I was told that I had to have 3 letters of recommendation & last I heard from the school, an interview would be apart of the process. However, I heard that before they changed their process....

    Yay for us!! I can't wait to get the packet and start filling it out. I was told this is the second step in their process. I haven't filled out my fasa yet but I usually never qualify for any...

    I'm so excited!! I just got a call from TCAT Ripley about 20 minutes ago and they are sending me a nursing packet that needs to be filled out, completed and turned back in to the school by November...

    I completely agree. Those are the qualities that all nurses should have. And I'm not really sweating the interview process either. My plan is to attend Dyersburg State Community College after TCAT...

    The only other factors that I know of are "the interview" & "working or holding a license" in the healthcare field (such as CNA / MA license). Because again, this makes us stand out more than the...

    You're very smart to start studying before class begins. I'm doing the same thing. I'm going to do my best to learn the dosage calculations before class begins. I heard pharmacology is the hardest...

    Oh, wow. You made really good scores on your compass exam too. That's awesome! I called Ripley and spoke to student services before I passed my math so I could get an idea of what they consider a...

    Let me correct that date from my previous post...Ripley pushed the final day to have your test scores in to 11/11/15, not the 12th as I previously stated. If I'm accepted, I'm going to have a nice...

  11. TN LPN payrate?

    TennesseeNurseToB replied to HazMatt's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    Okay, so I don't live in Nashville but I do live in Memphis & I know the entry level pay here is $16 hourly. If any place offers less than that, run because they're trying to lowball you. However,...

    Are there any other TCAT Ripley hopefuls for the lpn class that's starting January 4, 2016? I've been keeping tabs on their website for any updates I could get & originally their deadline for the...

    Hi there kjones, I'm in the same boat as you. I took my compass exam at the Covington location back in July & I did great on my English but I needed to bring my math up (which I already knew). I...
