2. MCC Spring 2015 Hybrid Sign In!

   Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

   I need to jump on that refresher course myself. Don't feel bad, it's been 5 years since anat/phys for me. I went and got a BA in history and circled back around to nursing! I'm way out of the loop.

3. Maricopa Waiting List / Placement / Timestamps 2010+

   Dreamhawk replied to Maciso's topic in Arizona

   I was accepted October 2014, and I applied September 2013 with an October time stamp. I got my second choice at MCC Southern and Dobson. The wait list must be shortening because it only took me a year to get in.

   Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

   Rapunzel: if you are in the hybrid in Feb it looks like our schedule will be Mondays and Tuesdays 10-630 split between lab and class with an hour break in between. Finances are a big burden for me as well as I'm paying for all of this out of pocket. ...

8. Take LPN program while on the waitlist for RN program?

   Dreamhawk posted a topic in Arizona

   I am currently on the wait list for the RN program in Maricopa, but I'm still looking at a 1.5-2 year wait. Woud it be a bad idea to go ahead and apply for the fast-track LPN program at Gateway? I'd like to start making progress in this down time, an...

9. My story and some questions from a confused older student

   Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

   Thanks qaqueen, I feel so old sometimes. I think it's the barely out of my 20's jitters though. A few years back probably 8, I worked as a staffing coordinator for a small nursing home and saw many of the things I'm certain I'll be doing as a nurse a...

10. Retaking Hesi A2 Vocabulary,help!!

    I would agree with Tiffanies. I studied out of the HESI 2012 manual, and covered the vocabulary etensively as I was told by the nursing advisor hee in Arizona that it was the hardest part of the test. Even though I knew all of those vocab words backw...

11. My story and some questions from a confused older student

    Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

    Well, just as an update: I jumped the last hurdle for the wait list today and got my HESI out of the way. I studied for about 2 hours last night and managed a 91.5% cumulative score, scoring nearly 100% in all English areas. 85% in math brought me do...

13. Male Nurses that lift weights and stay fit

    Dreamhawk replied to S-Rank's topic in Male Students

    Pre-nursing student here. I lift 5 days a week heavily for the last 5 years. I'm hoping my size might give me an added edge when applying for my CNA position this fall, and maybe in nursing as well being able to lift heavy patients and all.

14. My story and some questions from a confused older student

    Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

    AzIrish: That's definitely an idea. I plan to get my CNA this fall, and afterwards I will be taking anat 201/202 again since its been 4+years since I've had either. I will certainly try my best to raise those grades to an A in hopes that I might be c...

15. My story and some questions from a confused older student

    Dreamhawk replied to Dreamhawk's topic in Arizona

    Thanks very much for your input! I am glad to see that my current educational background won't go to waste. I felt it might help at least somewhat given that it makes one appear diverse I guess. I am leaning towards postponing the bachelor of arts in...
