Is anyone else starting at DCCC this fall? I recently was accepted in the ADN program there and GTCC. i decided to stay at DCCC since I am already enrolled there.I was just trying to see if I had upcoming classmates on here. Also any advice from those who have been through the program would be very welcomed!!!

Not having any background in medical fields is OK. There are a lot of people that are in my class with little to no background. Sometimes if you have prior experience it can hurt you because you want to fall back on what you think you already know. So do not let that scare you. Second do not focus on negatives. How many drop or don't make it has nothing to do with you and your dreams of becoming a nurse. We have lost some that started with us but there are things that happen in people's lives and they have to step back and regroup or they may start and decide it is not the field for them. Try to focus only on you and your goal. Ultimately that is why you are looking to get in the program! It is not easy... do not think that it can be put on the back burner and skated through. You do sacrifice time with friends and family, sleep, and have to learn to say no to things to committ yourself to your studying. I am telling you this not to scare you but only to help you. If you know that you cannot put other things aside wait until you can. It is a big commitment but it is your future no one else's. I tell myself this every time I get discouraged. And I do but I know what I am working towards and I focus on that :) . I still have a way to go before graduation but I am working hard to make it there!!! Hopeful I can write RN behind my name in 2014.

Does anyone know the average teas scores that make it into the ADN program at DCCC? I have applied there for ADN and LPN, Forsyth Tech LPN, SPCC LPN, and Guilford Tech LPN ( working on completing it by the April 9th deadline @ gtcc). My teas V score is 68.7. It kicked my butt! I'm so nervous and anxious to find out if I am accepted. DCCC is the school I really WANT to attend.

The teas is a test i never want to see again. Lol. It is not the only factor in getting in. They use a point system. You get pounts for your teas score, anatomy 1 and 2 grades, other classes like psych, if you luve in county. Check with the school to get a list of how they add up or talk to addmissions. They will be able to let you know your point standing. Good luck :)

Sorry for the horrible spelling, my phone is terrible to type on.
