  1. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I'd say without the take-home exam -- in a 4-week format -- very few would pass! People are sweatin' as it
  2. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Thank you, sir. That makes me feel better. :) I think part of what surprised me is just that we don't have anything close to real life in lab... I mean, not one anatomically correct male we can...

    This is SO weird..... I was just watching the detailed videos for catheterization, and thinking about messaging you! :) I was told by an instructor today that we may be expected to insert a catheter...
  4. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Yep, 4 weeks. Our first exam was over 15 chapters + 4 math for meds chapters -- and we took this after just one week of class. I got an 89%... but much of the class was pretty

    Leadkrm ~ good to hear from you! :) What sort of fun clinicals are you doing now? Umm, I'm still alive... haha. Had our first exam today, in Fundamentals. That was ok, but haven't seen my score...
  6. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 RN Students

    Congratulations to all who've made it ~ and I hope we have a group continue to post here. I've had a "hopeful" thread going for some time now... but I guess I'm not "hopeful" anymore -- I'm doing...
  7. ATI TEAS 6 - Final attempt usage

    Another tip I thought of: There is a site called Moby Max. I used this when homeschooling my children. They have a free trial, so you could get on there and take all of the placement tests...
  8. ATI TEAS 6 - Final attempt usage

    If it were me, I would not take the TEAS again until I was solidly seeing scores of 80+ on the ATI practice tests. Taking it four times already and not scoring above a 70 would make me wonder how I'd...

    Leadkrm ~ so cool that you are starting to zero in on the areas you're interested in. Congrats on another semester done! We have to take Pharmacology the first semester. That's really the only class...
  10. Need Advice on TEAS VI!!!

    TEAS Mastery app on your phone -- use it every spare second you have to do questions. This will help you zero in on the areas where you need to focus. I used a variety of other tools to prepare,...

    Finished my APHY102 finals today, and I am DONE with that class! Felt so good. 83/85 on lecture final ~ looking like 97% overall grade for the class. I'll take it! :) How is everyone else doing?...

  13. Debating taking the TEAS Test

    I found the TEAS Mastery app on my phone to be incredibly helpful. I think it was $14.99. If you start going through those questions, it will give you a very good idea of what the TEAS is like, and...
  14. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Doing ok! APHY102 during summer is quite fast-paced. :) Can't wait to hear details about your 2nd semester, when you have time.
  15. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    DBP ~ good luck on your TEAS tomorrow! Please do come back and let us know how you do. It sounds to me like you've done a lot of preparing. Do your best -- that's all you can do. Remember that you...
  16. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Feels weird to have to wait another 3-4 weeks, doesn't it? Aren't they lucky! :) I'm not sure what to picture as far as days and times at all. I haven't even looked at the course schedule online...
  17. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Just got my orientation email for Muncie -- it's July 28. Is everyone's this close to classes
  18. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    The TEAS Mastery app will "over-prepare" you for the science portion, IMO. I used that to determine my areas of weakness, then used Khan academy videos to thoroughly cover what I didn't know. When I...

    ljebary ~ what GREAT news! :)
  20. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Sorry for all of you out there who are waiting & waiting. I wish I had some info to contribute. Hang in there! And please feel free to stick around, even if you have to keep trying for another...
  21. I'm not sure I'm cut out for this

    Exactly. Jen, I read through this thread earlier and thought: You've had to encounter this same thing with homeschooling. If I had a dollar for every time I heard, "Oh, I could NEVER do that... I...
  22. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I haven't heard anything else from Muncie, either. That must have been a location that had very few spots? Or very few applicants? I mean the location that sent out orientation letters
  23. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Bdab, you're our FIRST RN! Congratulations!!! :) I'm so glad you came back to share. Geez, I think we accept your apologies since you were off kicking ass on the
  24. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    And the girl (lady, whatever, almost everyone seems young to me now, lol) I know who just graduated from the ASN program originally did not make it. She was accepted for LPN and then a spot opened up...
  25. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    gemlady, what campus(es) are receiving the orientation info? I haven't seen anything yet. Seems
