  1. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    Scrubs are navy blue, it doesn't matter the style. Shoes for clinicals need to be leather, as for color, it will depend on your clinical instructor. Mine requires white leather. You can wear whatever...
  2. Being Pulled into the Office for calling CAT

    Is it possible for the bg to have gotten so critical in 2 hours? I'm just trying to understand the reasoning for taking the extra 5 minutes to check it knowing the information from the 6:00am check....
  3. Being Pulled into the Office for calling CAT

    I am a nursing student and was wondering if you could explain the glucose. It is my understanding that a glucose of 123 is not critical-in fact it is fairly normal for a diabetic, correct? If that's...
  4. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    This is what I have discovered so far; buy the patho book but buy the ebook. The books are big and bulky and hard to maneuver. Also buy the fundamentals book for care 1. You will also need the nursing...
  5. I literally have tears in my eyes. That was so beautiful. I am starting nursing school in August and I have been asking myself "do I really think I can do this at 44?" Your story gives me hope and...
  6. What do I do

    I started my prerequisites in 2014 at 42. I am now 44 and will start nursing school in August. I'll be 45 when I graduate and I plan on pursuing a masters at Baylor. This is your life you are talking...
  7. Do I have hope?

    I was in the same boat. 22 years ago I had a 1.25 gpa. I started working on my prerequisites again 2 years ago and brought my gpa up to a 3.52. The university I applied to only considered my...
  8. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    I copied this from the website. You need, at minimum, 2.75 GPA or higher in the required 60 hours of nursing prerequisites and 3.0 or higher in the required science prerequisites, and yes if you...

    Do you drive in or take the bus? How many days a week are you actually in class and what time does your first class start?

  12. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    I just got in as well!!!! GPA 3.72 Hesi 93.2 CT
  13. I just took the Hesi A2, this is my review.

    No, you don't need biology or learning styles. You just need A&P, math, vocabulary, reading comprehension, grammar and critical thinking. Some schools require everything, so when you take the test...
  14. Failed Hesi A2 Entrance Exam twice

    What did you use to study? There are several study guides you can purchase, plus there is an app called Hesi A2 pocket prep that was very helpful. Good
  15. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    I have read other threads and it seems they start mid to late March through April
  16. I agree with everyone else. It is more a waste of money than anything. Check out other programs. Surely the ADN program at your community college isn't the only one around. Most universities have BSN...
  17. UTHSC Traditional BSN Fall 2016 Applicants

    How are we all going to get through the next 2 to 2 1/2 months without going crazy while we wait? I have emailed the registrar about transcript evaluations and if I was going to receive one, but no...
  18. I found it easier believe it or not. The biggest difference is you can use a graphing calculator, and in fact there are some sections where you can't work the problems without it. I actually enjoyed...

    Good Morning Xipp, It's funny that you commented when you did as I had just gotten through the 2014 thread and read some of your posts. What time is your earliest class and do you commute or do you...

    Hi Sheyhanis, I took my HESI on 12/21 and it didn't come off my to do list until January 5th. I wouldn't worry yet. Good

    Hi, Thanks so much for the information. If you had to go to class, what time did they normally start? Also, did you have classes everyday? Thanks so
