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?
One nursing student told me that I should volunteer at a hospital or doctors office prior to applying to the program. Did anyone do that? If so, did you request a letter of recommendation and submit that with your application?

@ Sperkyperk that just give you in inside look to see if that's what you really want to do. Because everybody tell you Nursing is hard but they don't say anything about how stressful it is physically & mentally. You get curse at, you got clean poop, vomit. I think volunteering is good idea.
I volunteer at a Hospital and yet still nothing what I did hear that helps is service learning which i have already completed over 100 hours but didn't submit a letter or the certificate with my application. @Candy2 I live in Homestead so BC its far for me, I wonder when will they start sending rejection letters.
Guys I heard last year that acceptance letters were sent even after orientation. You should really go to the campus to make certain they reviewed your application. My application for AO was not reviewed in time so I missed out on that program but I will be doing FT generic

@ RedGyrl that's good to hear maybe there's still hope.
I just called advisement, the lady on the phone said that they're still sending acceptance letters so to continue checking our emails daily rrrrggggg ;/ and that they're also on the process of sending rejection letters and to keep waiting. They do not give any info at allll... All she kept saying was "they're on the process, check your email, keep waiting."
