Broward College starting Jan 2013

Published

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.

I think you could retake it. Ask to have a conference with the Nursing Director. She is ultimately the one with the power to allow you to retake a class. If you need, I can give you her email. PM me.

PS, I to had a C in English, and this is my first language, hahahaha. But I would suggest improving, or, retaking your sciences, ie: chem, maths, micro. Your HESI exam is a very complicated indicator of your English proficiancy (as per the director). Some schools tailor the HESI to anatomy or chemistry. Broward C. doesnt even have chem on the HESI. My cousin in NY, her nursing school HESI was tailored to chem and math. So every school is different when it comes to HESI. BC tailors they're to English because the director said that they noticed students were having a difficult time with all the reading involved, but were great at math.

Good night, think I can sleep now. I'll let ya'll know what happens after the admission meeting tommorrow. Night night :)

What campus are you attending and why? Mostly due to shorter distance from home or another reason?

Any Miami/Cutler Bay resident attending BC nursing in January? I'm looking into carpooling or perhaps some fellow nursing roommates in the Broward area.

@larimar: Me, Central. It is 8 miles from home and I'm a cyclist. Therefore I can ride back and forth to school and still get my excersize since, I have a feeling, I wont have any time to workout otherwise. Anymore. So I'm gonna incorporate excersize into my commute. As far as which campus is best? I heard so many conflicting opinions from students at all 3 campus's, the only conclusion I can come to is: all 3 require an immense amount of reading, a TOTAL commitmant to your school, keep your head on your studies, have a going away party for yourself so you can say goodbye to your friends for the next 2 years. Hope this helps. And good luck in all you do!
