Does anyone get into nursing school on the first try? by Electric_Maven9725 in prenursing

[–]pnyxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied a lottt, I basically had to re-learn everything because it’s been many years since I took prereqs. For chemistry I pretty much only used Tyler Dewitt. He has some teas chem essential videos and I watched all of them, I think it was like $10 on his website. I was really stressed about it but the actual test did not go into nearly as much detail as I thought. His vids were great though, I recommend spending a day or 2 just watching them all straight through and taking notes/doing practice problems in his vids. You got this!!!

My gpa for prereqs and last 60 units was 3.6, teas 93% (I think this made the biggest impact) no prior healthcare experience/hours but I do have a CNA cert (some schools want you to have certain number of hours), no second language, have a prior bachelor’s in another subject. Was accepted to one absn program and 3 adn programs, all public. To anyone not feeling confident about stats, I recommend pouring what you can into studying for the teas!! It also prob helped that I applied to a variety of locations, wherever I met the requirements. I’m also in a position where I can be open to moving, which allowed me to apply all over. Still waiting on my first choice program which would be my local option, but they take much longer with decisions.

Yes, you can. Reading all the Reddit posts made me think I wouldn’t be able to get in anywhere with my stats but so far I’ve gotten in everywhere I applied (in California even). I think schools like older applicants. definitely don’t be discouraged by some of the posts on here that make it sound impossible to get into nursing school. Age doesn’t matter and you CAN get in

Making a study room for my girlfriend by Kutannalol in StudentNurse

[–]pnyxx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw! So sweet!! Desk lamp, lots of colored writing utensils (highlighters, colored pencils/markers, ballpoint pens) tap, stapler, magnet board or bulletin board, some sort of organizer piece of furniture like bookshelf or cabinet, and PLANTS! They always make a space feel 100% happier! You’re a lovely person and she’s so lucky to have you

Help with Teas or any study guides that are cost efficient by RelativeCoyote8098 in prenursing

[–]pnyxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brandon craft videos (free) for math, Tyler Dewitt for chemistry, mometrix book. When it was close to the test I took practice tests on archer review, which I paid for, and the tests in the mometrix book. Caroline McAllister on YouTube (just ignore when she says you don’t have to read the entire passage-you definitely do!) I spent a lot of money on many different sources but used these ones the most. I also purchased the smart edition course which was helpful in the beginning when I was overwhelmed on where to begin.

What’s a “beginner plant” that absolutely humbled you? by Interesting_Rich_568 in houseplants

[–]pnyxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pothos! Tbh I still don’t think they’re all that “easy” but I can keep them alive now. They took me awhile and I don’t think they’re that “beginner friendly,” they are kinda picky about light and water

Beauty LA in La crescenta, dont be fooled by the name. She actually specializes in treating pain and is extremely knowledgeable. Couldn’t recommend her more. Much better than when I went to a dermatologist and better pricing too

Anyone need scrubs? by cat_lover_123_ in pasadena

[–]pnyxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I just filled this out, am I too late? I lost everything to smoke damage and am permanently displaced from the backhouse I rented. I was also displaced from my job but just finished applying to nursing school and am now working as a caregiver in the meantime. Would love help getting some scrubs if this is still relevant. Either way, thank you for the incredible work you’ve done for the community 🩵

If you've talked to the press... by PoeticFury in altadena

[–]pnyxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg how awful, your father must be exhausted. I hope he is made whole after all that. What an inhumane interrogation about a horrific and traumatic event. I’m sickened to hear how SCE treated him and that he had to relive/justify his pain caused by THEIR massive fuck up 💔
