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?
When I turned in my application the advisor told me to check everyday after 4PM since they normally start sending emails in the afternoon. So I guess there is still hope for today...
You are welcome Daily . I know we all want to get into the MDC program but do any of you have a plan B just in case you don't get into MDC? I was looking at FIU...their program seems to be just as difficult to get into as MDC and they don't have a PT option
@adry - thanks for the info about 4 PM! I looked into FIU before I applied to MDC. They don't have an RN program, their program is strictly BSN or RN-to-BSN. I do plan on going there after MDC for their RN-to-BSN program. I already did my pre-reqs for it and have FIU's other random required courses. Applications are due in March, but they have more pre-reqs than MDC so if you are looking into it, you should start working on them ASAP.
I hope everyone has a great day today and can go more than 15 minutes without checking their emails...

If it is not today I am gonna take a break of this, because this is driving me crazy for real.
