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?
@carissahalo you're welcome! What I did was forward my mdc emails to my personal email and I get them on my phone. It will alert me. I have also been stressing this whole acceptance email. I just want to know already! I'm sure it will get worse when people begins to post that they received it and others are still waiting.
@ Jocrespo and @ Carissa- The day I turned in my application the advisor SPECIFICALLY told me NOT to FWD my MDC email to my personal email. She said sometimes it will not get to your personal email. So just in case I think you guys should check into the actual MDC email at least once a day... better safe than sorry.

Thanks! I am checking my MDC email once a day (at least!), but I've had it forwarded for years and it hasn't failed me yet! I definitely suggest to everyone doing the same thing to check MDC email as well.
@Mary - I saw the stupid exercise class email too. I experienced quite a random wave of emotions when I saw it. Excitement -> Fright -> Sadness -> Anger. LOL
