    MendedHeart, how did you review/prepare for the placement

  2. Fall 2016 Wake Tech Applicants

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks gotgifts3! I would love to have gotten an A in Anatomy!! That's awesome!! I actually didn't take any prerequisites at Wake Tech aside from Developmental Psychology and Nutrition. I took most of...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    gotgifts3, depending on my current classes I'll have somewhere between 174-186. If I get two B's I'll have 174, two A's I'll have 186, a combination of an A and a B I'll have around 180. Right now I'm...

    22bebe, are you saying then that students who have all of their prerequisites done are going to rank higher than students who don't when their points are tied? So if a student has 160 points and one...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    22bebe, if you apply in the spring will you have some other classes you can add to your points? Hopefully the spring is lower; I'm crossing my fingers because I need it to be lower as well. With the...

  6. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I didn't realize there was more than one nursing advisor. That's nice to know! I knew there were multiple health science advisors, but I thought they all specialized in one area: dental hygiene,...

  7. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Laila34, I'm not 100% sure how it works, but if I had to guess, I think that they only take points from the most recent grade; so if a student makes a D twice, I don't think the -5 turns into -10, I...

  8. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Does anyone know who actually looks over the applications when they are turned in? Is it all of the health science advisors or just Ms.

  9. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Laila34, I know exactly how you feel! When I was told my math that I took in Spring 2012 would meet math proficiency for both Spring 2017 and Fall 2017 (if God forbid I had to apply again) I was so...

  10. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Jpeters247, I'm kind of doing something similar. I have credit for SOC 210 but I only got a B, so I'm taking BIO 155 (since they'll substitute that until Fall 2018) hoping to make an A. Right now I'm...

  11. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I'm kind of in the same boat Laila34. My grades are a mix of A' and B's, and after this semester I would have taken all of the pre-requisites. I currently have 156 but that does not include the two...

  12. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    No problem Laila34! Good luck with everything! You sound like you'll be busy but you are exactly right, it can all get done with dedication and perseverance! Is your 156 including all three of your...

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi Jpeters247, I used the McGraw-Hill 5 TEAS Practice Test, I also hung out in Barnes and Noble for a couple of days looking through the Study Manual by ATI that everyone raves about. I couldn't bring...

  14. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Laila34, I went back and looked to see if at the information session we were provided with information on our BIO classes, and how long they would last before they expire. I do see that BIO 168, BIO...

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi Laila34! I'm not sure what the time limit is for the sciences, but I'm certain there is one. I would follow up with Ms. Watkins! Good luck to you! How many points do you think you'll have when you...

    Nice! Are students allowed to use a calculator or is it like the

  17. Wake Tech Spring 2017 Start

    PirateRN_919 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi MendedHeart! My math that is about to expire is actually a statistics course. I got news yesterday that starting Fall 2017, maths have to be no more than five years old from the clinical...

    Thankfully the semester is almost over and it will be July before you know it!

  19. Fall 2016 Wake Tech Applicants

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Found out something new today. They are actually changing the math requirement after the Spring 2017 cycle. Effective Fall 2017, math has to be within five years of the application deadline, not five...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for the advice WSMom,CNA and gotgifts3. I was hoping that I would have the option just to take the math portion as I do not need that other sections. I'll have to do some research. I'm starting...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    WSMom, CNA I was referring to the Accuplacer. I didn't realize there were multiple tests. I'm glad you brought that up. Is the Accuplacer only a math test, or does it include other subjects like...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Thank you for that gotgifts3, I'm praying too! So I'm still a little confused. So if you take the placement test and achieve a certain score then your math requirement is completed.. but if you don't...

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi Jpeters247, luckily my math has not expired yet. I took my math course in spring 2012 so it will not expire until spring 2017. I was told that if I applied no later than July 2016 my math would be...

  24. Fall 2016 Wake Tech Applicants

    PirateRN_919 replied to Jpeters247's topic in School, College Programs

    So how does the placement test work? I was thinking you sit the test and if you make a certain score you place out of the math requirement for the ADN. I was thinking that modules 010-040 were...
