  1. Is CSUF better than CSULB?

    I would go to direct admission. CSULB's program is very competitive, so I wouldn't want to worry about it later. It seems you are coming out of high school, so I'll tell you what I've been told by...
  2. HELP! Just found out school is not accredited

    I would really make sure that your degree and units from that school will transfer into an accredited BSN program. You should get in touch with former students who were able to transfer to a BSN...
  3. Emory BSN Fall 2017

    Hey guys, I also did my application very late so my chances are slim, but I figured it doesn't hurt to try. I applied to the absn program which I think is different than yours, but it's still Emory. I...
  4. I am 25 also with a bachelor's degree and going back to school for nursing and want to become a CRNA eventually. I already have $30k in loans for my first bachelor's, so cost is a definite factor in...
  5. Desperately need help studying efficiently

    During all of my science prerequisites, I did not have to study as hard as you did. I took them all accelerated in an 8-week and 5-week course. I think that helped me a lot because I was focusing on...
  6. You might want to do more research into the schools such as how good their program is and their NCLEX passing rates. The last thing you want to do is spend your hard-earned money on a program that...
  7. Rio Hondo Fall 2017

    Hi Emma! I also applied to LBCC and CSU San Marcos for their ABSN program. I am thinking if I get accepted to LBCC or Rio Hondo to also apply to the dual enrollment programs at CSUDH and CSULA. Do you...
  8. Teas exam please help fellows

    Is English your native language? The English grammar and reading portions would be tougher for non-native English-speakers. I recommend studying from the official ATI Study Guide because they not only...
  9. Advice needed. ADN vs BSN vs MSN

    Then the ADN option would be your best bet. There are some universities that have dual enrollment programs where you can be in an ADN program at a community college and take BSN courses at the...
  10. Putting off A&P1 due to professor options?

    I took Physiology with a professor that had bad reviews because the other classes had reached capacity. I ended up with an A and it was definitely a struggle, but it wasn't as bad as the reviewers...
  11. CSU as a freshman or Community college

    I graduated from a CSU with a non-nursing degree and decided to pursue nursing after. I took all my prereqs at a community college and it had saved me a lot of money. The education you get at a CC is...
  12. How many prerequisites did you take for A&P1&2?

    My school had no prerequisites for Anatomy and the prereq for Physiology is Anatomy. I guess it just really depends on the school. These courses are hard to get into, so I imagine some schools put...
  13. Advice needed. ADN vs BSN vs MSN

    If I were in your shoes, I would probably go for either the ADN or ABSN. I am in the same boat and applying to both ADN and ABSN programs. ADN programs are a fraction of the cost, however, it would...
  14. CSU San Marcos ABSN Fall 2017

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone else have received their evaluations and if so, how long did it
  15. TEAS in 3 Weeks Nervous!

    I just took the TEAS on 3/15. I studied math mostly from the ATI Study Guide. I think it perfectly sums up exactly what you need to know for the math section. I didn't like the science portion of the...
  16. Got Accepted for ADN but is it worth it?

    I suggest going to get a BSN if you're going to spend a lot of money. I am applying to my local community college whose ADN would cost $4,500 total. Of course I would have to go back to school to get...
  17. All Fall 2018 Nursing Hopefuls

    I am actually a Fall 2017 hopeful, but I am very excited. However, the anxiety and wait is really hard too, haha. I have applied to Long Beach City College ADN, Rio Hondo ADN, CSU San Marcos ABSN, and...
  18. Study nursing in the Philippines or in US?

    Keep in mind that nurses and physicians have two totally different roles in healthcare. Your experience as a nurse will differ from that of a physician. I would recommend volunteering at your local...
  19. TEAS VI taken through PSI

    Hi, I just took the TEAS through PSI on 3/14 at 9am and I got my results on 3/15 at 6pm. So a little over 24 hours. I know the wait sucks, but they will come. I ended up with a 94.7!
  20. Senioritis

    Same here. I am taking Lifespan Human Development because the course I took before covered adolescence to death and didn't include childhood. What I'm learning right now is pretty much the same thing,...
  21. Another thing you can do is look into any volunteer programs that have direct patient contact and are hands on. I am currently in the same boat as you trying to get into an Absn program and have been...
  22. CSU San Marcos ABSN Fall 2017

    Thank you. I emailed extended learning and all they requested was a pdf file of my transcript emailed to
  23. CSU San Marcos ABSN Fall 2017

    Hi guys, I have a question. I just took my teas test and I am confused about where to send my transcript. When I tried to order it, there were two options to send to: Cal State San Marcos and Cal...
  24. A&P I and II over summer?

    I took Anatomy in 8 weeks during the summer and Microbiology in 5 weeks during the winter session and got As in both. I also took Physiology and Chemistry at the same time during Fall semester. These...
  25. For-profit BSN degree to MSN/FNP?

    Hi, I am in the same boat as you and applying to ABSN or MEPN programs. Since you want to be an FNP, have you checked out the programs where they guarantee a spot in their FNP program after ABSN?...
