Why hello there, fellow students!
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?
GOOD LUCK!
Stats:
Expected final science GPA: 3.67
TEAS score: n/a
I am wondering if the PT option was more competitive. Does anyone know if there will be more emails before the 21st???
I think it must have been because I haven't heard too many people say they got in to the PT program. I applied for FT and PT and didn't get in to PT, which is what I was really hoping for...but it just means I'll have to make some major sacrifices in the coming year...
I have never gotten an email from Miami Dade through my Miami Dade email account, I called advisement just now to find out what email address they had on file for me and they simply said we will send all emails regarding acceptance to the Miami Dade account. I told her I applied to nursing and she said those letter are still going out so continue to wait and check inbox as well as spam/junk box.The wait continues

@dcepero we are both in the same position...Let's stay positive! Many students got into two and three programs. Don't loose faith!
