Alright, I'll start! MDC Fall 2013

[Shinnichi]

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

@candy2 thanks for the info I probably retake the teas to see if I score more than 82 the higher score the better what program are you going to apply to? let's hope we can have a chance for spring 2014

I also called Medical today and the lady told me that they will continue to send letters for the next two weeks so to check my email everyday and that two weeks from now they will start sending rejection letters. Now, I don't know which version is real let's see what happens.

Those of you who are going to hold on to MDC and re-apply, do not despair. Use this time to do all the classes you will need, including the ones you will need for the BSN. You can find out the classes you will need if you go to the medical center of MDC's main page under campus and then click admissions requirements.

Some of the classes you already have, but you will need Nutrition, Sociology, a foreign language; if you have not already done so in high school, plus others. Get them out of the way now that you have time, you will need these even if you transfer out.

Remember, there is always a rainbow at the end :)

Hi,

I was wondering if you guys know the competitive score cut off they had for AO and FT-Generic this Fall. I'm applying in the Spring and right now my competitive score is a 83.9-84.5, depending on this semester's final grades. I spoke to an advisor and he thinks I will get in but I'm still on the fence whether to take the TEAS again and try to improve my score.

Wait on the TEAS. I think they are going to change the exam.

I was holding off before I paid to register again but I don't think I can hold off any longer... What about you?
