Anybody here from CCBC nursing program?

I applied for the fall 09 Hybrid online RN program - still have to take the TEAS on 3/11 - really nervous. I went to CCBC over 20 years ago for sign language interpreting. I just sent off the final packet of requirements to the Selective Admissions Board - next step is the interview!

Wish everyone luck!

That is great! I really hope everything works out for you. Best of luck with the TEAS. I plan to take the test over the summer. Let me know how the teas test is.

Well I took the TEAS and passed - 79% overall and 93% reading comprehension. It was a long test - did best in reading and math - the science was all over the place - so do get the study guide and work on the science and english portions. Did the worst on spelling.

CCBC Selective Admissions is meeting this week to review canidates and then will call for interviews. So I am keeping my fingers crossed - got a card in the mail that final decision letters will be first part of May.

Currently taking Microbiology at FCC and EN102 in the first part of summer to be finished by clinicals - board said that was ok.

Congrat! I am planning to take it over the summer too. I have a question for the TEAS test. Is it worth to buy the study guide from the campus to study? does the test look just like the study guide or it harder in the real test?

Thank you

The book was very helpful - very similar questions on the test. The sections I studied the most I did the best on. I also purchased the online practice test - it was helpful but you only get to do it twice and it is the exact same test - same questions. It did help show me my strong areas and weak areas so I could study. I can sell you my book if you want it.... and you can purchase just the test online.

Hope this helps.

I just got my acceptance letter today from CCBC Catonsville for the day class of Fall 2009, I am so excited and nervous at the same time!!!!! Woo Hoo!

I was worried I wouldn't get in because I am still taking micro and A & P II, but it obviously didn't impact the decision.
