Tidewater Community College Fall 2017

Hey there Tunisia! Just wanted to let you know if you didn't already you MUST have had Chemistry or Microbiology in order to apply at all. I went to apply last time and when I called to get some answers before turning in my application they said my application wouldn't be eligible at all. It was my only missing class too so I was really bummed! If you have had Chemistry though within the last 5 years you will be fine! I am also applying for 2017 fall start now that Micro has been completed!

Hey everyone! I am FINALLY gettin ready to submit my nursing application! I am so excited! I was going to apply for spring 2017 but unfortunately I was missing the one and only class that could not be missing (Microbiology or chem). Finishing Micro with an A and I am so glad it's time to start studying for my HESI and get that done!

My grades are:

Bio 141: A

Bio 142: B

Bio 150: A

Eng 111: A

Eng 112: B

SDV 101: B

Psy 201: B

Ehi 226: A

Psy 235: A

I will add my HESI score once I have completed it! Any tips for the Hesi? I am very nervous! Look forward to getting to know you and go through this journey together!

Nice! I am applying too. Going to take the Hesi A2, on January 3rd; then getting everything together ha ha. I haven't finished all my prereqs, due to the fact, I was focusing on Old dominion's at the time. Here are my grades for the classes I have taken:

CHM 121: B

BIO 141: A

BIO 150: A

ENG 111: A

PSY 230: B

All my other classes I am taking this Spring.

GPA: 3.85

I took the Hesi at Old dominion, I got an 82. However, I didn't study like I should have because I took it during the fall semester, while volunteering. I was worn out ehh. Good luck tho, you got it!

Good luck! I'm going to try and take it the week before the application has to be in! Tell me how it goes once you're done! I'm nervous! Can't wait to just get into the program and finally start!

Thanks a lot! Same too you! I took the Hesi a2 yesterday at TCC, and got and 88.29. When you take it just make sure you eat a lot, because it is 5 hours. My stomach was growling, so I rushed towards the end. It's all really simple. I actually didn't study anything besides the math. Don't be like me, I was careless at the time ha ha.

Hi fellow nursing hopefuls. So excited to finally be done with all my prerequisites! The last one I needed was Micro and Im sad to say that I received a C. I've contemplated retaking it this spring semester but decided to hold off and see if I get in ,otherwise Micro in the Summer. I plan on taking the Hesi the last week in January. Are y'all having your high school transcript sent to the school or including in your application packet?

Goodluck everyone!

You should still have a good chance! I'm taking the hesi the week before applications are due. And im sending the high school transcript with my application! :)

I would still apply! My friend applied 2 years ago, with C's in both his anatomy, but an A in everything else. Not sure what his Hesi score was, but he got in some how. Think he was wait-listed first though actually. He is a registered nurse now too. I wouldn't worry too much though, I bet a lot of people applying have a C. Not sure, if high-school transcript is required, but I think it is. Good luck tho! Study for your Hesi, you got it! I doubt I will get in because my prereqs aren't finished. So, atleast all of yours are done! However, TCC is my back up now after improving my Hesi score.

Hey MurseFuture, How many questions are on the chemistry portion? And are they hard? I never took Chem. so I am stressing about it a little bit!

I think there was about 30. I took chem, but to be honest it was really simple so I wouldn't really stress. Just make sure you understand like difference between acids and bases, and the different bonds. Understand atomi. Mass, and atomic number, and know that electrons are on the outer rings. All the basic stuff. I got a 92 on the chem section. Not sure how, but I feel the test is really simple as long as you believe in yourself, and don't think negative you'll do fine. The first time I took at odu I got 84 on Chem, didn't study 2nd time though, and got higher by a lot on every section. It was because I prayed, and didn't doubt myself LOL. So, your confidence during this test has a big affect on how you do. You'll be fine, make sure you still study though! Good luck!
