Is anyone out there applying to TWU for the Spring of 2010? Just thought that I would start a group for all of us hopefuls so we could share information and have a way to communicate with each other.
Have you taken your HESI A2 yet? Have you taken all of your pre-reqs? If not, what do you have left to take?
I have taken all of my pre-reqs, and I just took my HESI yesterday. I didn't think it was bad at all, but I prepared for it for about 3 weeks.
If you haven't noticed, TWU has made some slight changes that I think some people will not be happy with. They are taking into consideration the first grade made at pre-req attempts for several of the classes like A&P, micro, and another class. What do you think of this? I wonder how it will change the applicants chances of getting in?
You know what I think is strange? I have a friend who has his ADN from El Centro, and he never took Patho or Pharm. Apparently it wasn't required for his degree. Don't you guys think that's weird? I am finally finishing up Chap. 15 while my daughter naps. I am going to try to get through most of 16 after she goes to bed. These chapters are killer.
Goopsy, your dream is too funny. It's hysterical how what's on our mind comes through in such strange ways while we sleep.
hi everyone! just found this site and wanted to say hi! i am also taking patho at the dallas campus. i'm having a hard time finishing these chapters up...
anyhow good luck to everyone taking the test on monday!
Welcome Suniiiie, Glad to have you!! What a great user name, with this drury raining weather we are having. Study hard and do your best, the first test is always a challenge until you figure the prof. style. After that you will get your groove.
OK, how sad is this? I spent an hour last night going through all the nursing courses we have to take and figuring out what my schedule would probably look like over the next 2 years. Pretty lame, huh?
Just for those who want to know, that first semester doesn't look too bad but the second one (Fall 2010 for us) includes a clinical that goes from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm one day a week. Yuck.

OK, back to studying chpt 17 & 18.
So what does it look like next semester? I am really curious about that. I have no idea what to expect in terms of our (hopefully) schedule.
If they stick to the same schedule days and times, which I can't imagine that they would change it since it looks like they've got a good system down, the schedule looks like this:
Hi Sunniiiie! thanks for posting that butterfly; I wonder when patho would have been scheduled? Elizabelle, I also have one friend who has her ADN, and she has never taken pharm or patho either. I was completely shocked when I found that out. I took pharm at UTA over the summer in an 11 week course and it was so much valuable information. I can't imagine being a nurse without that knowledge because 90% of what a nurse does involves medication. I'm wondering how she knows what the adverse reactions are for a medication, what normal dosages look like, and even how to teach the patient how to take the meds and what not to take them with! It was really complicated info, but an asset to my education for sure!!
Goopsy, it's the same class we're in right now, so Monday mornings. That's why we won't have class next semester on Monday mornings, we're taking it now.

yeah, I knew it was the class we are taking now, but didn't realize at the same time. thanks lol! That makes sense.
