You can call me Cedeno, and I'll be applying for the MDC nursing program for fall 2013! I've been excited for awhile now, especially since MDC (and all its red tape) has delayed my intended apply date twice (originally Fall 2012, then Spring 2013). Ah, but no worries!
Right now I'm taking my last bit of classes before applying: A&P 2 w/lab, Micro, and Critical Thinking/Ethics. I've seen many nursing students this semester-- which is wonderful-- but at the same time I think two words when I meet another pre-nursing student: "Awesome! " and "Competition! " (Not seriously, but in a jokey kind of way.)
Once admitted, I'd love to form a study group. Size isn't quite so much the priority as cohesiveness is (though size counts!). I'd love study mates who like to utilize chats like Google talk, Skype, Kik, etc. for times when perhaps we'd like to study something but cannot make it to a physical location.
I'm a visual and auditory learner, so I love highlighters, dry-erase boards, and discussing questions together to ensure everyone understands rather than one person offering up the answer and others just accepting it without knowing.
Ah! I've managed to turn this into an ad for study mates! I'm just excited and hope there are other potential classmates here on AN. Please pop in and say hello! Let's talk GPAs, TEAS scores, whatever!
....Also if you take the TEAS twice is it highest score used or last test taken?
They should have time to review your transcripts redgyrl. Don't lose hope. I'm sure they will want to review all transcripts before choosing the top people. At least they called you and didn't totally disregard your application because of an error!
I seemed to have missed this....do we actually have a REAL date?? I've just been waiting day by day to either receive an email or hear from you guys. A real date would be great...I'm getting pretty antsy.....

No Carissa, we don't have an actual date, but Wednesday will be exactly 6 weeks from the application deadline, which is the time frame MDC tells u to wait, from that day on, we are to receive news at any time
@Redgyrl That must be what **** was telling me about. She said they were trying to finish reviewing transcripts. Girl, I hope they review yours quick!!! I love how everyone on this thread was all like, "no they didn't!" when you posted that. We're def. in this together.
@everyone I'm desperately trying to keep busy this week before I go crazy. I've already checked my email a couple times . My husband keeps finding me on allnurses and he's like, "Again?!" Oh well.......

Why is that? Why they need it again?
