   Hi guys, I was not able to get a straight answer about buying books for the kindle. They may address it at orientation. If they don't I would ask. As for registration, I believe they will have you quickly speak with an instructor to go over all of yo...

   As of right now BCC has a policy that says students can not bring electronics while they are on clinical time. I would not buy the drug guide or the nursing diagnosis handbook for the kindle because you typically bring these books with you. I am not ...

   It does sound strange, I think they don't want people to know it's for a drug screen lol I should probably be at the orientation on the 3rd. Last year they had the student officers (in the begining you will elect approx 6 students, one will be the p...

   Not a dumb question at all :) For me, the first week we went to lecture all day on Tue after Labor day from 8-2:30 and did the same on Wed. On week two we went to lecture on Mon from 8-12 (Lecture stays this way the rest of the semester) and had lab ...

   There is a lot of reading and some test questions are taken right from the book. Plus it would be difficult to constantly have to go and search what chapters match from the old to the new book. If they use the same thing as last year they actually ha...

   Hi guys, and congrats!!! So exciting, it brings me right back to how I felt. Few things (for the standard program, I don't know about online), you'll get a letter and paperwork about orientation (which I believe I went to in late April), but the book...

   I work 20 hours a week, and try to do less on quiz weeks. I don't have any other outside obligations. I honestly don't know how some people do it with kids, working full time, etc. But somehow they manage. Everyone is different when it comes to how m...

   My TEAS was 72 and GPA 3.65. I've heard that it doesn't matter what you get on the TEAS as long as you pass. If you still need to go to an information session that might be a good question to ask because I'm not sure if they changed it. They also loo...

    redpanda replied to KB87's topic in Massachusetts

    Last year we got our letters around late March/ early April (it's hard to remember). But I found out a few weeks early because they changed my major from general studies to nursing in degree works (which is under access bcc). They may have caught on ...

    Hello, I'm entering my second semester tomorrow for BCCs nursing program. If you have any questions let me know. There is also a thread from last year that basically started like this and it has a lot of good information.

    I work with an LPN who applied for the bridge program. She said the notification letters should get mailed out this month. They start in the fall also, but it will be the third semester for them.

    Does 11am work for everyone? I think the easiest place to meet would be BCC, how about the library entrance?
