Hi guys, it's been a while. I've just been sweating buckets about something and wanted to get some opinions. So, I was at clinical this morning from 0630 to 1400. I had a patient with renal/hepatic problems. He was a stand by assist 1. I answered his...

I've been reading all the responses and I am so glad I'm not the only one who thought it was a bit much to kick me out of the program. I do have good news though: they accepted my appeal and I will soon get a letter officially recognizing my reinstat...

This was exactly the situation. He was on lactulose and was 50 so he really didn’t want to “go” on the bed. I slipped his grip socks on first and complied when he said he was fine with the walker. It says in the hospital report/documentation that his...

Thank you guys soooooo much. I have probably released enough tears to fill a bathtub. The meeting was actually not a meeting. They just told me that I needed to recognize what happened and that they had to kick me out of the program. I got kicked out...

I'm not too sure about NHCC but IHCC highly advises against it. They won't stop you but they'll make sure to try and convince you-- mainly for your sake lol. I think the main reason is the course load as well as the hours. We have class from 8 a.m. t...

Hey all!!! I'm so glad I found a topic on this! I got my acceptance letter from IHCC July 18 with a composite score of 12.3. No news from Century yet but I'm sure I'm headed for Inver =)

UPDATE: I've been accepted into the program!!! I wasn't even waitlisted which is super common! I retook the TEAS after studying my behind off, scored an 85.7 & bumped my grades up so that my GPA is now a 3.7 (for the program). I just wanted to up...

Hey all, I've been having some doubts as of late. I've always wanted to become something in the medical field. It was always either the medical field or teaching. Then I realized I could teach in the medical field and that settled it. Anyway, my poi...

Hi guys. I've had a rough patch with my education where I went into a slump that just killed my confidence and drive. I had C's in most of my pre-reqs and was super nervous about the TEAS. Fortunately, I now have some good news!! I retook my gen bio ...

Thanks for the prompt reply!! I'm not entirely worried about the class. I was wondering if the sections of the TEAS exam are weighted differently based on the relevance of the subjects. Like, do you get a higher overall score if you have a higher sco...

Hi Zahra!! (We have the same name >. I actually didn't score any higher than you (got a 77 with my lowest score being Eng usage). My science score was what brought it down though bc I was taking A&PII at the time and knew nearly NOTHING about ...

This. Sounds. Amazing.

I am applying this February and hoping to start in the Fall semester which is August . . .. I'm sort of worried, (previous post will explain why) buuuut things have changed so I have decided to bite the bullet & just apply! I am currently finishi...

I know a couple of people who have taken both classes in the same semester but it wasn't at the same time. They took compressed versions of the class, A&PI from Aug to mid-Oct and then A&PII from Oct-Dec. It worked out pretty well so if you'r...

I'll be closing this thread now (once I know how haha), thanks for all the helpful comments!! I'll figure everything out from here hopefully =)

Thanks for the advice guys! I have to say that you (Buyer Beware) hit the nail on the head with the perfectionist comment but I think its more than just that. I'll try on working super hard from now on instead of falling into a state of doubt. Hopefu...

Yes yes and yes. Thank you. I'm actually applying for a CC RN program right now but its gotten pretty competitive over the last 3 years. There are only 50-60 spots but around 150-200 people apply on average every semester. I'm now planning on applyin...

Has anyone considered purchasing a mini fridge and keeping it locked? Is that a possibility? Its about $40 minimum. The only question is if your workplace would allow it. . . Just a suggestion lol. This thread has kept me very entertained for the pas...

I heard that the flow of blood through the heart is a guaranteed portion in there (which is actually A&PII). I don't know for sure though since I've never taken it so don't take my words as fact

Yep, definitely thinking of retaking A&P I again and yes, I'm currently taking A&PII and I think its going a lot greater than A&PI. We just finished the Respiratory and Blood sections and I scored an A on the lab practical and a B on the ...

Thanks for all the tips on studying! I do tend to cram and this is usually when I'm feeling really motivated. I'll actually enjoy the study time but it takes a while for me to get back to that state again. I do know that I am more of a visual/hands o...

Thanks for the reply and yes I understand. I'd rather have someone give it to me straight anyway. I'm currently retaking Gen Bio. Wasn't thinking of retaking A&P though (unless I scored a C on A&P II or had a lot of trouble w/ admission). Doe...

I'm taking the TEAS in October (Oct 14 to be exact) and I was initially planning on purchasing the ATI study manual + practice tests at first, but money's a bit tight. I could still purchase it but I'm not too sure if its necessary. My college has a ...

I'm actually taking Microbiology and A&PII this semester as well. Its been 3 weeks so far and I think it'll be manageable. Microbiology seems to have a lot of basic biology with a little more details. Its quite interesting though. My A&PII in...
