Broward College starting Jan 2013

[Larimar7]

Have been hearing that BC will be requiring math prerequisite and may be dropping Chemistry pre-req for nursing program for students starting Jan 2013. Please post any specific information you have received from the school. I have emailed them but have not heard back. The people on the phone are not exactly sure what's going to happen.

Im an on my second semester on the online option. Clinicals work the same for generic or online. The first week you will go T and W. After the first week you are assigned either a T or a W. Basically the entire semester has two weeks only where you have to go both days. The hours for the other weeks are from 7:30 to around 4:30, when you go to the hospital (usually the last weeks of each half) you have to be there by 6:30 and stay until around 4:30pm. I hope this helps.

Do you like the online option? And what do you think is the most difficult about doing it online.?

Has anyone done their physical/vaccines/titers yet? Or should we wait until after orientation?

so now that we all have received the letters - what campus is everyone attending? What really are the differences other than some saying central is harder or north is this and south is that ... really what are the differences? Also has anyone used ceufast.com for their certifications?

IMHO, the BC nursing program is tough and competitive within itself...That's why they have maintain a really high NCLEX score on the initial try for many years. I really don't think there is a difference only and except where clinical are taken. Congrats and good luck.

Not all campuses take ceufast.com. You will have to check with the campus you are going to attend. They will tell you that at the preadmissions meeting.

Hey Lina - I set an appointment for the week after orientation - this way I dont have to wait longer that necessary and will bring all the paperwork they give. Some people are using a walkin clinic but my insurance is cheaper than the clinic.

Question to everyone/anyone: which hospitals are affiliated with which campuses? I know I saw this somewhere but cant seem to find it.

Thanks

We're only a few days away from our orientation session. :) When I RSVPed, I confirmed that there is no required dress code. I strongly suggest bringing a notebook and a few things to write with in case you misplace one. Who's excited? ;D

For everyone attending the pre-admissions meeting on Friday. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON TIME!

I have yet to take it as well...I'm still preparing myself since they have changed their hesi requirement along with the option to only take it twice within a 6 month period.
