  1. Regarding the many smells of a hospital...breathe through your mouth. It really does help. Good luck!
  2. Yes you should be able to start in August--if you want to. At least they did this for us--they asked if anyone wanted to pick a different start and sign a sheet and state why. Either for a pre-req still needed, vacation planned, or they wanted to b...
  3. Dear Deb, Have you had orientation yet? Do you know your start date yet? Right now there is not a lot you can do to prepare, a couple more public posts and I can PM you. I can get you more info then.
  4. MCC PDA Software

    I have an i-Pod touch, and it has 8gb. I've downloaded skyscape's nursing constellation, for 89.00 and the added on Tabers (Which I highly recommend), and I've barely used any of my memory. I had started with a PDA and was not impressed. It cost ...
  5. Dear Deb, I used the 5th edition book last fall, and their weren't a whole lot of differences. Basically, a couple chapters are in different order, but the material is the same.
  6. I think it is time for the MCC hopefuls to start count down

    Dear Michymich, I am unable to PM yet. Both books would probably be beneficial. Check e-bay for better deals. The book with the question-answer format, is the one I was referring to though. Many instructors use that style of questioning, even similar...
  7. Dear Deb Laf, Cograts on being accepted. I can't PM yet because I don't have enough posts yet. Anyways, don't sweat the small stuff. There's a test that can be done at your Drs. office that can tell which antibodies you have, and that will confirm...
  8. Accepted into nursing program at MCC!

    Congratulations to all who got accepted into the program. I am currently in the program and just wanted to pass on some advice that other nursing students passed on to me. If you get a chance, buy the Saunder's Nclex review guide. Many of the ins...
  9. A BIG concern

    I know at our orientation, they told us that men had a better chance getting into the program than women, because of the demand for men in the field. We do have a few guys in the program with us, and their only frustration so far has been that somet...
  10. I can't PM yet, I don't have enough public posts yet. I know you're not supposed to give out names, but I'm sure whomever you got for Micro will be good. You'll be just fine. You're going for the program, which means you're willing to work for i...
  11. What mantra is getting you through nursing school?

    My mantra has been to "Live, Laugh, Love, and when all else fails--SCREAM into a pillow!"
  12. If you've been excepted into the program at MCC, you will find out at orientation that there are four different starts. (Aug., Oct., Jan., and March. If there are prereq's (like Micro) that you still need to take, you can put your name on a list for...
  13. New to MCC Nursing Program

    Thank you for your advise and words of encouragement! I don't know what PM means. I'm also new to chat rooms.
  14. New to MCC Nursing Program

    I've never worked in a hospital before! My first day of clinical was truly an eye opener. I've read all the material, and watched all the video's, but when it came to the day I stood there like a deer in the head lights. I froze! I didn't know what t...
