Is the wait still 4 years or 5 years now? I also am not sure I want to be a nurse. I was thinking something in nutrition, but I hear nursing is more stable.

I took the TEAS on Fri (July 6th) and went to turn in my app right after. She told me I'm in for 2015 but I will prolly be bumped up one year so its 2-3 yrs at this point..

How do they cut down the wait list? People drop off because they get in sooner? Or People drop out because the program is too hard?What do you use to study for TEAS? How hard is it? When do you take it? After finishing A&P? Is it ok to take the combined A&P BIOL 236?

If I were to go for the program, all I need is A&P plus the TEAS test. I'm just scared about not passing TEAS as I've been out of school for a while and I'm terrified of tests.

i actually got my acceptance letter a week later and im in for 2014 but could be bumped to 2013!! the wait isnt as bad as everyone is saying.. some people get into other schools, or decide against nursing all together thats why they tell you to be prepared to be bumped up. for the teas you just buy a study guide, it wasnt hard and ive been out of school for a long time too, everything you need is in there. i took it after a&p but you can take it before if you prefer and you can take 236, i went with the 237 & 238 just in case i want to get my bachelors in the future.

I got onto Schoolcraft's Nursing Program waitlist in spring 2010 and wasn't scheduled to start until 2014, but I got bumped up twice and now I'm starting this fall (2012). So even if the wait is 4 years or so, it is possible to get in early.

How is the wait now? Same, 4 or 5 years? Is BIOL 236 alright to take instead of BIOL 237 and 238? I'm tired of waiting around and just ready to take BIOL 236 then complete the TEAS test. Any tips for the TEAS? I haven't been in school since 2010 and probably rusty on all areas.

I also tried BIOL 237 and dropped it once Fall 2012 because it was moving so fast, should I take General Biology again? I got a B in 2008 in General Biology and an A in Microbiology in 2008, so I have no idea why the class moves so fast.
