BMCC Nursing Program Spring 2018

Hello Everyone,

Today we took the Kaplan Entrance Exam and I thought it would nice for us to share feedback and get to know each other as we wait for a phone call.

I found the reading and the math sections to be fairly easy while the writing section was confusing. Science wasn't easy but more manageable.

I scored 71% with 3.7 GPA for pre-req. It's on the low side but still hopeful :happy:

Not sure who you were asking, mine was 4.0 and 84%

your pre req gpa was 4.0 tho right?

Prereqs 4.0 and overall 3.9 I originally planned on applying for.evening so ended up doing more than I needed smh

Congratulations for all of you!!

I picked up my package today. I am in for day program. If any of you haven't picked it up yet, I am putting out some information that might be helpful.

So, the orientation( mandatory) is on January 10th@11:00 am.

Uniform fitting- January 16th 3:30 pm-6:30 pm( online order option also available)

BMCC has CPR classes. Next CPR class is January 20th- 9:00 am to 3:00 pm(phone: 212-346-8410)

There are other places too.

Then the medical forms to be filled up by your healthcare provider, drug test, criminal background check,HIPPA certificate.

Once you gathered all of these documents, you must submit them to Castle Branch site by uploading. (instruction is with the package and also under nursing department on bmcc website)

Then the books list. I checked with the school book store.

Elsevier Simchart, Fundermental of Nursing(9th edition) by Potter & Perry, Also by same authers Clinical Nursing Skills and Technique, including some software - all in one package cost $ 405 ( my heart almost stopped).

Then some more books and online accesses to more products and services ( for example: Nursing Central- softwear). I did not even ask the book store.

I hope this information might be helpful to someone. Anyway, I am not purchasing anything until after the orientation. Approximate cost estimation is $ 1,200.

Good Luck everyone! Hope to see you all at the orientation.

Congrats to everyone that got in! I was able to listen to a voicemail from Mr. Sierra right now saying that I got into the evening program. I am away from the country and will be back on Wednesday evening.

Can someone give me the details to the orientation for the evening program ? Please and thank you

Your orientation is on Wednesday 630 pm, it is.mandatory but you are allowed a representative. Give them a call

Hi All !

Even though non of us know each other, I am sure all of us were there at the orientation. Good Luck!!

I bought the books, but not able to get online access. Elsevier is requires Instructor's course ID. I could not find this code among any of the papers from Nursing Department package. If anyone with this information, please help! I also emailed the professor B----.

The other information that is not clear to me is lab attire. I know for the clinical sites we must wear BMCC nursing scrubs. I am not sure what was the dress code for Lab.

Please help me!
