Oh, no, I thought it was only the BIO 141/142/150 that had to be completed recently? Where does it say that the high school chemistry needs to be recent?
Hi! I am currently taking my prerequisites and planning on applying to the nursing program in 2018. My plan is to enroll in the nursing program when my son is in Kindergarten. I was drawn to the traditional program since you do not have classes in...

I am loving learning too! I am a completely different student than I was 20 years ago. Never thought I would love school this much! Feels so good to use this old brain :)

Good Job! I agree, this website is great for encouragement. I don't like sharing my grades with my classmates, it is so competitive that people aren't really happy for you if you do well. My new answer when people ask is "I did better than I thoug...

I am taking A&P I. I study about 2 hours per day, more when an exam or quiz is scheduled. Got a 97 on the first lecture exam (woohoo!) but I have the first lab exam next week and the next lecture exam the week after. Just finished the muscles ...

This is what I did! I haven't been in school for 18 years, so this definitely helped me ease into things. I started with Pych, Nutrition and Medical terminology. Now I am in A&P, and doing very well. If I would have taken this class first, I ...
I heard that they had 400 people apply for the Fall, and only accepted 60. I wonder if a lot of those people plan on applying for the Hybrid program? Best of luck to you, I plan on applying in 2018 and am keeping a close eye on the program.
Just curious, how do you do this? I plan on applying to a few schools, and I thought I had to go to each school to take the TEAS there. That would be great if I could take it at one place and send the scores to all the schools!
You need A&P I and II (BIO 141 &142) and Microbiology (BIO 150) You do not need to take any of the humanities classes that are required during the program if you have a Bachelor's.
It is disheartening to hear that the NVCC program is such a mess. I am currently taking prereqs and planning on applying for the Fall 2018 program, but it looks like I should start thinking about Plan B. Does anyone know much about Lord Fairfax's p...

To piggyback on this post, I am starting my prereqs for nursing school and have been subbing in the elementary school clinics when it fits in my schedule. Do you think that is decent experience or am I better off volunteering at a hospital?
This thread makes me feel so much better! I am 39, we have a 3 year old son, and I am taking prereqs one at a time so that I can enter nursing school when he starts K. I am excited and nervous! I start A&P in 2 weeks, that will be the real tes...
