well fall semester is over, and i'm transferring to wcccd from occ. i have to complete the 12 credit hours at wcccd before i can apply in june. i'll have that after spring semester, i'm enrolled in patho (online), american government and microbiology. are there any other members out there who are applying to the program in june? if so we can post here, to be support for each other, because we're literally in the final stretch, and we cannot give up. if anyone is registered for some of the same classes, maybe we can form a study group...
i hope this post will get a lot of post... i really want to form relationships with other nursing students... we all have to stick together!!!!
has anyone received their cpr certification? if so where did you go, i know wcccd students can only go to either healthcare provider or aed professional rescuer... where are these places?

Hi im actaully reapplying in febuary for august 09 start with a 3.4 GPA. Thats kind of low compared to the last semester cut off a 3.7 so i am retaking micro this spring to bring my GPA up just in case. Who is your professor for micro? I also have to retake the NET because my reading was lower than the new requirement. So depending on how good I do on the NET in febuary and if a 3.4 is good enough I may start in August 09 or I know I will have everything together for January of 2010 for sure!!
Tiffi:
We can't mention the names of our professors, I have Micro at the Downtown capmus... I read on ratemyproffesor that the guy is good, as long as you study...
I wish you luck in Micro... Where are you taking the Net? I'm taking it at HFCC on the 6th of Feb..
oh ok.. I'm taking the micro at the downriver campus and the NET over at the western campus in febuary.. good luck

If you are taking micro downtown, as far as I know there is only one teacher, I had him, and it was a lot of work, but I liked the class and I learned a lot, I am very thankful that he made me study to pass, a lot of the things I learned have been helpful

I do !! What are the application deadlines for Spring 2010? As far as CPR classes are concerned, go to http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=3011764 and you should be able to find a class near you
Thanks ladies....
Mello, think we are talking about the same guy.. What you said, is pretty much what posters on ratemyproffesor said.. So, I plan on grabbing the book ASAP so I can get a start on the reading... Do you have any pointers, beside the obvious (read and study)?
He gives hand-outs and good notes. If you remember stuff from Bio 155 it will be easier. try to learn what microorganism causes which disease as you go along instead of waiting for the test on them.
Hey Mello:
I'm guessing BIO 155 would be basic Biology.. I took that in HS.. however I did take Microbiology
of healt and disease at OCC... My plan was to attend OCC, but I think WCCCD will be a better fit
for me...

For everyone that has questions on CPR, the nursing program will offer one to those accepted..I dont know what you have to pay, but they do offer it once you are accepted...
