  1. NTI: What's a Scromper, Nurse Blake?

    Literally LOL. Love the dance moves, Nurse Blake!
  2. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I am just throwing this out there as a possibility -- If I were in your shoes, I may consider taking the few classes you need to be a CNA in the meantime. As a stay at home mom of 16+ years, I can...
  3. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Sorry, I was talking about a situation like hopefulRN who registered for fall classes in case she didn't make it into the fall program. You will be working on pre-reqs in summer and fall, applying...
  4. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I guess I never discussed an alternate plan with my advisor, because my plan was to get in. It must have been her plan for me, also! Lol. Because she just said, "you won't be able to register for...

    They will assign your classes & schedule. I couldn't even register for fall classes if I wanted to, since a PIN is required. How did you do that?
  6. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I was advised to retake PSYC and I brought my C from 20 years ago up to an A. I'm so glad I did. I did everything possible to get the highest score possible, because you never know what sort of...
  7. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I want to say it was $14.99... Whatever it was, I think it was a GREAT investment. I used it for months & when I got really close to time, I "reset" the app and started going through things...

    I was told second-year nursing students wear all green. Is that how yours was, too? I think it's funny the campuses are so
  9. Ivy Tech 2017 Applicants

    pelaine, lots of folks posting here ~ if you want to join in the conversation! :)
  10. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Steel gray sounds nice! I was told by a recent graduate that first year nursing students in Muncie wear tan tops, green bottoms. How flattering.
  11. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I have wondered about those out there who have not been accepted yet. So I am glad you're still here! Please continue to feel welcome as you do whatever you may need to do to improve your scores...
  12. Am I too old to become an RN??

    I'm 38 now. Made the decision when I was 37. Will graduate when I'm 39 ~ almost 40. Typing those out feels strange to me. They're just numbers. They "sounded" "OLD" to me when I was 18. I...
  13. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I got mine for Muncie, too. Congrats everybody!
  14. Anyone know how the TEAS is scored?

    I did not buy the study package -- just the practice tests. I decided that in the last week or so, and I feel they were worth every penny. I used a combo of other less expensive resources. The...
  15. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Ha, yeah, so everyone be glad things have improved since then, huh?!
  16. Pre nursing student w/two kids & a full time job

    I read this the other day and wondered about your comment regarding this being easier when they are smaller vs when they are teenagers. My kids are 10, 12, and almost 16 -- and I cannot imagine...
  17. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Welcome, emily! ...We should all know something soon... :) ------- So I went ahead and got my Tdap done last week. I'm sure I'd never had one, and when I was a kid it was just a T. lol Had titers...
  18. Anyone know how the TEAS is scored?

    Yes, I have, and I scored a 92 -- which is in the 99th percentile. Highest score my advisor had ever seen. BUT. I knew it was coming for months and I took it very seriously. This score was a large...
  19. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    June 5th -- awesome. I have a friend who just graduated also, and she will be taking hers in the next 3-4 weeks. She told me about this "process" also. Sounds a little frustrating if you're...
  20. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Hey, thanks for stopping in! And congrats! So when do you get to do your NCLEX -- do you know? I hope you'll stick around, because I can guarantee there will be questions. :) We'll take all the...
  21. online BSN- no proctored exams

    And how would you know if this were the case? Is there some magical way you'd be able to
  22. Prepping for ATI TEAS?

    I think the decision whether to go back and review your answers is highly individual, and you should figure out what type of person you are ahead of time, if you haven't already. I have figured out...
  23. Should I study anatomy and physiology before the semester begins?

    I just listened to the first of Professor Fink's YouTube videos, and man, I like it! Noctor Durse, thanks again for the tips.
  24. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I've made a new friend (of a friend) ~ and she just graduated from this program. I asked her today & she says it is 4 semesters, and Muncie going through the summer is a new change. So she...
  25. Anyone know how the TEAS is scored?

    Yes, it's out of 100. 58.7 is well below the national average. Should not be hard to do -- but I don't know you, your knowledge, or your study habits. I will say, take it seriously and do not...
