    Pre-nursing: How to answer NCLEX q's before RN school (or mastering them)

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Type of class = online class. If you find an online nutrition class a pain in the ass, I really question your success in nursing school. I don't say that to be unkind, but the way you approach...

    Summer 2017 Chat

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In the 90's? Wow. My score was 83 and that's in the 92nd percentile nationally. I usually freeze up with Big Tests, but I didn't feel like that with the TEAS. The only reason my score was low was...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to briber09's topic in General Students

    This depends on your school policies. Mine doesn't care how old the classes are. OP, you really do have to disclose all your previous course work. There are national databases that have transcripts...

    Pre-nursing: How to answer NCLEX q's before RN school (or mastering them)

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Googling test questions and using Quizlet to answer them = cheating, IMO. I wouldn't recommend that path. I would, however, google test questions AFTER you've done the test, find the author of the...

    Taking Micro and A&P II together?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to rileowski's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did Micro and A&P II with two other classes and it was doable (4.0 that semester). I don't think I'd take two sciences and stats though - that was a difficult class for me. I'd probably move...

    Are you required to do nights when you do your practicum?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to sarahamelia's topic in General Students

    For the school that I'm hoping to get into, you pick your top three clinical shifts and hope for the best. There are at least 5 different clinical sites each semester, and there are day and evening...

    Summer 2017 Chat

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just popping in to say hi. I officially submitted my last application - there are issues with the third party service the community college uses for transcripts so that's been stressful. Fingers...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Farrah 34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The TEAS VI is still new, I doubt they will be changing it any time soon. The V was around for at least 6 years. As far as studying, start taking practice tests online and see how you feel. I bought...

    UT Health Science - San Antonio Spring 2018

    I was trying to wait until I got to see my official transcript, but I assume you just listed everything by semester? I'd really like to submit it

    A&P I Issues

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to EverConfused's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd work hard for the C. Getting a D or an F really isn't an option, IMO. You should check with your hopeful nursing school for their retake policies, too. For mine you can retake, but that first...

    UT Health Science - San Antonio Spring 2018

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just called and talked to someone. Apparently because we selected "hold for grades" they hold until all summer sessions are over. The guy I talked to said they aware of the issue, and they are...

    Human anatomy & physiology part 1?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to lecole01's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Flash cards really helped me with the anatomy part. I'd take photos of the models in class, print them out, paste them to a large index card. Then I'd label the bits I needed to know with a number and...

    To Drop or Not to Drop....

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to annabananaof8's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd take the fall classes, have the Spring off and see how it goes. You could always wait a year to attend an ASBN program if needed. Good

    Bullying by Nurses and CNa

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to nadomel's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It will never cease to amaze me that people think it's totally okay to be rude/name call/be condescending while calling out behavior that they don't agree with - effectively doing the exact same thing...
