Hey all..... just decided to start a thread for all of us you are finishing up prereqs and plan on applying in Spring 2010 for admission into the Fall 2010 semester. Just a place to vent frustrations and post up good news. Just follow the format
Taking:
API
APII (spring): taking both over and hope for A's
Biochem/Organic Chem
Plan on applying Jan 2010 to LIU-Brooklyn and the College of New Rochelle ....but I am hoping to get into LIU:D
Specializes in Critical Care, Clinical Documentation Specialist.
I sent in my application and now just waiting to hear back. I am taking the last of my pre-reqs this spring and have finalized them to: Western Civ, Stats, Music Appreciation, Logic, Sociology and I will be taking Interpersonal Communication so I can get my A.S.
I took all my sciences first and now just have stats and social sciences. I miss the sciences SO much!
This Winter Qtr I am taking AP 2, Dev. Psych and Medical Terminology and then Spring Qtr I will be taking Microbiology, Sociology and Chem 131 (Organic Chem). I am considering taking the CNA course over the summer, while waiting to get into a RN program in the Fall, that way I can work part-time as a CNA in nursing school. I am taking my TEAS Feb 18th and I am very nervous...everyone says it's pretty tough and I am nervous about having time to study for it on top of my classes. Any tips to successfully study for it and pass it? Thanks guys! :)
Thank you for the dose of peas&carrots, it's just what I needed; reality check. I totally agree. My primary focus is A&P and everything else is secondary. I understand a strong understanding and application of A&P I is an essential element to success in the clinical program. I'm going to follow my instinct and change math to another day. Thanks for your input and support. Good luck to you too!
I'm taking A&P II and (retaking) Intro to Psych to bring that pesky C from 2002 up to an A. Then, this Summer I'll take a 4 week (:eek:INTENSE:eek:) Micro-organisms and Disease w/ Lab. Applications have to be in by Feb 1st! I'm SO excited I can barely sit still.
I applied for the Fall 2010 semester. I took the TEAS got a 74 % and they called me for an interview a week later. I am anxiously waiting there decesion in the mail. My gpa is a 3.0 and I have a BA in Psychology. Does anyone think I will have a chance of getting in? Also, iv'e been hearing that their NCLEX pass rate is pretty low is this true?
I am taking A&P I, along with Western Civ., Intermediate Algebra, and the Psychology of Happiness this Spring 2010 and I need some advice from the experts. My concern an question is whether or not I should allow more time between AP lecture/lab and Math? A&P lecture is at 11-11:52 am, Math is from 12:30-1:50 pm and A&P lab (located in another building, but I could make it in 10 min.) is from 2-5:00 pm. Honestly, I'm not worried about getting there on time, I'm more concerned about whether or not I will need more time to mentally prepare and transistion from Math to A&P I lab. My gut says no and I want to change my Math to another day, but I've heard wonderful things about this Math professor and I can use all the help I can get in Math. What do you guys think?
Thanks,
Kena
Kena,
If you feel the teacher is really going to help you, then just keep your schedule. IMHO I think you will be fine. It is nice to be able to review before lab b/c as mentioned before there are exams on the muscles bones etc, but just be sure to manage your time well. My math skills are not that strong and for me the teacher would make all the difference. Hope this helps and good luck!
