  1. USF ABSN 2017

    crazydoglady89 replied to crazydoglady89's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey Mamallama! Sorry I didn't reply back before. My first degree BS is also seemingly a lower GPA at USF than it was at my first institution? My overall GPA with my first degree was a 3.68 (my last...

  2. Florida Woman in mid-50's Applies to Nursing School

    crazydoglady89 replied to Barmherzigkeit's topic in General Students

    I also applied to UNF - best of luck! BTW - my aunt is a 65 year old charge nurse and still works 50+ hours a week in CICU. She has been an RN since 21 and has loved every minute. She has been at...

  3. USF ABSN - Summer 2017

    crazydoglady89 replied to crazydoglady89's topic in School, College Programs

    So happy to see someone respond! I also found that my GPA was slightly different than my GPA was at my University in my first degree. My overall at my first degree program was a 3.65 on that...

  4. UCF 2017 Accelerated Nursing Program

    crazydoglady89 replied to Berfinathan's topic in School, College Programs

    Also, I would like to add that I sent my TEAS profile last week and it is still a yellow checkmark. Maybe it takes longer because I didn't take the TEAS at UCF. My background/fingerprints are still...

  5. UCF 2017 Accelerated Nursing Program

    crazydoglady89 replied to Berfinathan's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey Ashley, If you look at the bottom of the application screen, it says the following: "Updates to your application dashboard are individually made after a College of Nursing admissions specialist...

  6. TEAS 6 Calculator

    crazydoglady89 replied to nerdy student's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I don't have any experience with Kaplan products so I can't really give my thoughts on those. I personally found that using the apps (TEAS Mastery and Pocket Prep) gave me the best practice in that...

  7. Only charting?

    crazydoglady89 replied to Niquolea26's topic in General Students

    WOW. I feel bad for Lightning. While there is nothing wrong with not wanting to be a bedside nurse, it is absolutely disgusting to look down upon nurses/any member of your healthcare TEAM. This goes...

  8. International Nursing

    crazydoglady89 replied to brin11299's topic in United Kingdom

    Be aware that the lifestyle nursing might afford you in the US is very different than that in the UK. I'm sure this varies by location/specialty, but it is my understanding that nursing pay in the UK...

  9. HELP! TEAS test studying isn't working!!

    crazydoglady89 replied to RN2b2018's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I would also like to suggest embracing how you best study. Personally, I study best in short spurts and for shorter sessions every day. I found that the apps (TEAS Mastery and Pocket Prep) worked...

  10. Teas 6 periodic table

    crazydoglady89 replied to KaseyAnn's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I personally didn't have any questions on specific elements (that I can remember), but I did see atomic mass or atomic number. I would be able to calculate the values on the table given other values....

  11. TEAS 6 Calculator

    crazydoglady89 replied to nerdy student's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Hmmm, I think y'all took what I posted a bit too personal/the wrong way. It happens. I'm glad you are able to talk about your experience and get your question answered :). My comment was generated...

  12. Advice on route to take

    crazydoglady89 replied to justwanttohelp12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can't help others if you don't help yourself. Are you willing to sacrifice your future/good job options to stay close to girlfriend/mom and dad? I am NOT trying to be condescending, but you need...

  13. Other major/career options

    crazydoglady89 replied to j3nnyxoxo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It doesn't seem like you've really researched the careers you are asking about. PA's and CRNA's have VERY different scopes of practice and work environments. To pick one over the other because they...

  14. TEAS 6 Calculator

    crazydoglady89 replied to nerdy student's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    With all due respect, I really dislike when people say something is easy or not complicated. We don't know the OP's mathematical background, and they are clearly concerned about a calculator. We have...

  15. TEAS 6 Calculator

    crazydoglady89 replied to nerdy student's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Yes, there is a calculator on the TEAS

  16. TEAS 6 Advice (Questions Welcome)

    crazydoglady89 replied to TheRomaniac's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    No, you do not know what you got right or wrong on the actual TEAS. You get your total score for ALL sections at the very end of the test, but no answers to

  17. UCF 2017 Accelerated Nursing Program

    crazydoglady89 replied to Berfinathan's topic in School, College Programs

    Ahhh, thank you so much! That makes me feel

  18. UCF 2017 Accelerated Nursing Program

    crazydoglady89 replied to Berfinathan's topic in School, College Programs

    I wouldn't call your 3.56 "low"... I'm applying to UCF, but didn't realize there was a fingerprinting requirement (DUH!). I have filled out the waiver and am waiting to hear back on the website....

  19. What are my chances of getting into a accelerated bsn program?

    crazydoglady89 replied to elliot00's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A great person to ask this question to would be an admissions counselor at the school where you are applying to. Since you are already an EMT, chances are that you have access to RN programs that...

  20. Applying to ABSN Program Issue: School did not provide sufficient information

    crazydoglady89 replied to alaila's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While I agree that it is absolutely MADDENING, let it go. You applied to other programs (SMART!), so let it go. Why is the course a "waste"? Can you not use this class as a pre-req for your other...

  21. teas v vs. teas 6 scores

    crazydoglady89 replied to shelz8's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I scored ~7 points higher on the TEAS 6 than I did on either of the practice tests. With that being said, I would worry less about the scoring of the exam and focus more on what you CAN control, which...

  22. How I scored a 93% on the science portion of the TEAS VI

    crazydoglady89 replied to mn2016's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I just wanted to say THANK YOU for suggesting the Khan videos. I scored a 94% in my science portion and a 90% overall on the TEAS.

  23. How I Made A 90% In My TEAS

    crazydoglady89 replied to carti's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    There are no written answers on the TEAS, only multiple choice. I think the questions in the book that ask you to write/work something out are simply giving you another method to study. I personally...

  24. TEAS 6 Advice (Questions Welcome)

    crazydoglady89 replied to TheRomaniac's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I took my test in the computer format and got my scores instantly. They are saved to your ATI profile once you are done, so if you don't want to stick around to read the report, you can do it at

  25. Is my teas too low to get accepted?

    crazydoglady89 replied to hcjbfs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yup. There's really no way for us to answer this question. We have NO idea what the minimums are for your school, or what the average admitted student looks like. One program I am applying to has a...
