Older grad nurse/can't fit in
I not sure it’s an age thing. I’m 35 and when I started my first job in a physicians office I got 3 days of shadowing then I was on my own. I had never done POC testing, given vaccines, used EPIC, etc, etc, etc. Since I started almost 3 years ago there has been many new people most my age, some younger and everyone else got even less than I did. When I worked as a PCT at a hospital it was the same. Everyone is so short handed that I just ended up being on my own early and when I didn’t run away crying, they decided I was fine on my own. I’ll be almost 40 when I finish nursing school, hopefully I get training this time around.

Esha I used this https://www.atitesting.com/teas/smart-prep-tutorial to study for the TEAS. The package starts by assessing where you are with a practice test. From there it gives you a study guide based on what you personally need to study. It also comes with practice tests. I believe they have more options on the ATI website than when I purchased a year ago. I don’t recommend taking the TEAS until AFTER you’ve taken A&P. A majority of the questions are from A&P.

Hi! I turned in my application for STLCC @ Meramec last week. The person I turned it in to didn't let me know of what to expect after I turned it in. I've seen a few people mention they received letters after they turned in applications. When I met with the retention coach she said 1-2 semesters, but that most recently they went pretty far down the waitlist. Thanks for any insight!
