Have also heard about math tests throughout semesters, is this true?
Hi! I hope you don't mind if I butt right in. I'm an RN who graduated from UMA.
UMA's nursing lecture classes are ALWAYS Monday and Thursday from 10:00 to 12:45. Some semesters you may get out at 12:30 and in the 102 class (that's second semester) I believe that class is held every Monday and
every other Thursday (if memory serves me right). The Lab and Clinicals are always on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
The math test runs through part of the semester. You have 4 attempts to pass with a calculator (it used to be 10 without a calculator). I believe you have to pass by the 9th or 10th week of school, but it may be a little longer for 1st year students.
If you're desperate to get in next fall I say go with wherever you can get in. The Augusta campus will definitely have spots open by the middle of the semester so you can switch to that site it's better for you (I don't know where you live). This semester two people have
already left the 101 class!
Would you like to comment?
