  1. COC Fall 2012

    Hello Fellow COC students: I'm about to start my third semester so let me know if you have any questions. First semester was definitely the most difficult. You will have 4 days of lecture/clinical and depending on your instructor's or the hospital ...
  2. Don't waste your time/money taking another math class. Get "Basic Math and Pre-Algebra Workbook for Dummies" and practice on your own. I did and it really helped. You just need to remember how to do the math and it will come back quickly since it ...
  3. Los Angeles County School of Nursing

    I was accepted last semester with a score of 83, but declined my seat to attend a different school. You should be in for sure with a score of 90.
  4. 54 year old sahm, am I nuts to think I want this?

    Would you rather be 57 years old with a nursing degree or 57 years old without one? Follow your dream.
  5. I have a friend who works at the LA County Hospital at Olive View in Sylmar. She said the entire staff and management is concerned about the implimentation of Universal Healthcare and the number of patients dropping drastically at County facilities....
  6. College of the Canyons Stats

    I've never been to Holy Cross Hospital so I don't know which specific floor we will be on but I believe for first semester we will be assigned to a Med/Surg unit.
  7. College of the Canyons Stats

    Add my name to the Holy Cross list too. I have ---- for my instructor there. By the way, I was accepted at County too, but chose COC instead mostly because I prefer to be closer to home and my family. If I had accepted County I would have to drive fr...
  8. College of the Canyons Stats

    Tuition is much less at COC, and if you search the LA County program on this site there is a post from an individual who is/was enrolled at LA County and she said that compared to other programs, County is unnecessarily stressful. With that being sai...
  9. Los Angeles County School of Nursing

    Just got my letter of acceptance and need to respond by Monday also. I have decided to attend College of the Canyons instead and will be declining my seat. My letter did not contain points cut-off information but I had 83, or 84 points if they coun...
  10. Los Angeles County School of Nursing

    Has anyone received an actual letter yet, or is it just word of mouth that the cut-off is 82?
  11. Los Angeles County School of Nursing

    They will raise the cut-off to something like 83 if that many people have 80. That's why an 81 is a nail-biter because we don't know what the final cut-off will be.
  12. Hi again, At MSMC you can get a BSN in 1 year? Do you already have a degree? How many hours/days a week are you in clinical/lecture? Do you have a family/kids to take care of? Another statistic to compare between the two programs is their respecti...
  13. Anyone a COPE Clinical Care Extender?

    Valley Presbyterian in Van Nuys. Going to College of the Canyons RN program in August.
  14. Anyone a COPE Clinical Care Extender?

    Anyone? I'm a COPE CCE right now and starting RN school in August. Just wondering if I might have a better chance of getting hired at my hospital after finishing school. Heard many hospitals are only hiring BSNs as new grads.
  15. College of the canyons (COC) nursing program

    Hi Everyone, I'm Jamie's friend and I just got my phone call and e-mail that they have an empty seat for me. So excited and scared and relieved!! I have friends in the program and they are really stressed, but in the end it will all be worth it. G...
