Calling all southwest tn comm. College spring 2012 hopefuls!!!

Published

I know it's a bit early, but I intend on applying for the evening/weekends program at SWTCC Spring 2012. I have a gpa of 2.75, 143 on nln, and an A in ap2 and B's in micro and ap1. Is there anyone on here that has been accepted to the program during a spring semester.. heard it's more competitive vs fall sem!!?? What are my chances???:uhoh3: Thanks

Don't feel bad. I think we are all concerned. I'm sure they will answer all our questions. I just took my drug test today. Hopefully, he background check doesn't have any problems. It shouldn't, but you know how that goes sometimes. I am going to call Meza today. I need to get my certification as well. I do have a questions maybe someone can answer it. Can we go to any doctor and have them do that physical? I don't have a primary care doctor. I will email Mary Vines on that myself.

I dont have a primary care phsician either, let me know if you guys find out anything. I did register to take CPR/AED class at St. Jude critical care division. its $40 from 1-3 on the 14th if interested call Tina Frazier @ 901-595-4765. You will have to pick up a book and have read it before the class, we will be tested on it.

Mrs. Vines emailed me back. She said we can go to any doctor. I am going to to the Methodist Minor Clinic on Union. That's where my insurance pays for!!

Insurance will over cover one physical a year. Luckily, it's around that time for me to get my annual physical.

Most insurance companies allow one physical a year. Just bring the school form when you get the physical. Try Dr. Warr at the Light Clinic in Germantown if you don't have a primary physician. He is awesome. You can do the CPR/AED online for $20. I asked Mary Vines if that was okay and she said yes. You can get most of your books at ebay for $.99 to $65. Used, of course and maybe one edition back. I wish I knew where I could get a used SW nursing student uniform; but I don't. I go used whenever possible as I find that these educational tools are usually not worth much when you have finished with them. I actually got a book that was like new for $4.75. We will grow into these books and then we will grow out of them.
