ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

milzer2012 · Jan 6, 2011

Hello everyone,

My app. period opened Jan 3rd. I'm applying at Harbor College in CA-the Southbay/LA area.

possible 1 or 2 others closeby. Each CC near me has at least 1 class that is college specifec.

(oooooh frustration!) I don't like the idea of limiting myself to applying to only 1 school.

When I was filling out my app, I have classes from a previous degree (X-Ray) at another school,

and realized need to have a counselor "sign-off" that all the classes from other schools to make

sure they are the same and will qualify.

That degree was from 1982 - So I needed to take new sciences - but the good part is that I got

all A's then.

I think I am excited worried, & anxious - Soome days just plain scared. And not the same emotion

everyday.

Even though the app goes in now, no results for MONTHS!

We use the TEAS V, so I plan to study for that, take Drug Calc and Intro - the last 2 so my family can get

used to a busier schcedule for me, and for me to get to know the instructors a bit.

Anyone else applying to LAHC? ELCamino?

Vann, hun I am sprry that things seem to be going in the wrong direction now. Keep praying and read Jeremiah 29:11. Have you thought about checking into childcare assistance? I have no idea where you live or if that would even be an option. I am praying for you too...

Thanks you guys. I was really in a tough spot. But I kept praying and praying. And my mom finally broke down and said that she will watch her for the first month but I have to find a good daycare. And my child's father is going to pay for it. One prayer answered. Then I waited for the plumber today and it wasn't even a busted pipes. The line from the hot water heater rusted out and he fix it in like an hour. Second prayer answered. I am so happy right now. Classes started tomorrow and I will be there with a big smile and a "thank you Jesus" in my heart. Thanks for the scripture!!! I really appreciate you guys.

Well im taking my pre reqs now to get into the nursing program through cuny. I have 5 classes to go. I have two options and im trying to think real hard about what to do. for the spring semester i have three classes general bio, math, and child psy. now the option is i can take a & p 1 and another math class in the summer and then apply to get into the nursing program for fall 2011, or take a&p1 and math in the fall and apply to get into the program for spring 2012. I dont want to rush i know that summer sessions are intense. I'm trying to make sure that i get all A's in my classes so i need to figure out what to do. :confused:

Going on vaca today and my drug calc book was removed from my bag by my friends, more room for nippers!!!

Summer and even more so Winter sessions are really intense.

I took Anatomy in the summer, quiz everyday, test almost every week.

I ended up with an A - but I earned it. I took doseage calc in the winter -

my family goes takes at least one Snowboarding trip a year, so I missed one classs

got really lost, and ended up with a C - the Class itself was changed the semester after,

and I moved and changes schools. so I do need to take it over at my new school, but it's still

on my transcripts.

This taught me a lesson - DO NOT GET BEHIND, I'll remember this for Nursing School !

Saw a counselor yesterday, and I'm all fiinshed with pre-reqs, everything will transfer to my New School -

So I can APPLY now! then wait months!

Welcome Newcomers!

I have been so stressed out I forgot to address you properly. We are all in this waiting process together. Most of us will be waiting at least until March-May. It's a long wait, but with all the support we give on this thread, it is sure to be a great journey.

hijadecalifas · Jan 8, 2011

Yep, I'll be finding out if I got in from March-May. Thanks for the welcome :)
