   I have read the post and they can be a bit discouraging, however I am not going to let pessimism prevent me from pursuing my nursing degree. The economy is awful right now and unfortunately has had a negative effect on every job sector, however that ...

   I still have not finished comparing books. I have been busy with several different things. I am still waiting for one of my titer results ( measles & mumps). The other titer results have been returned so I do not understand the delay. Hopefully I...

   OMG!!! I heard how difficult it was to register for Summer classes this year. Thankfully we will not have to go through that entire process this Fall. I despise waiting in long lines just to be told that class is filled. Good luck to you taking A&...

   Hi Megan. To be competitive at JCC, I recommend that you finish all your prerequisites. Nearly everyone who was accepted this year completed all of those classes. There are a few exceptions, but not many. I am sure JCC will post a cut off score for t...

    I am so glad that we are getting new uniforms. I hate the blue smock that the students have worn in the past. I wonder where I will be assigned. I hope its close to my home.

    We will have clinical on separate days. About 55 people were accepted. The class seemed huge to me also. We have so many things to do in order to be ready for school. I go for my physical tomorrow.

    I'm sorry Jennifer, but you can try again next year. A lot of people do not get in on their first attempt. Whatever you decide to do, I wish you the best of luck.

    I hope you make the team also Jennifer. Whatever happens continue to pursue your dream. I was not accepted into the JCC nursing program in 2009, however I finished all my prerequisites and scored reasonably well on the Teas and was accepted this year...
