Has anyone had any experience attending Nursing school at College of the Mainland in Texas City, Texas? I have looked at thier pass rates with the state. How is the program there? Any advice on application/ acceptence?

Doe anyone know what locations our clinicals may take place?

My friend started in the spring and her first clinical was at UTMB on Tuesdays the second half of the semester. I can ask her about other potential sites. Shes my go to guy for all of the program's info. Lol. Its really helpful that shes directly ahead of me.

I am not certain but have been told that RN students need Red scrubs..... not any brand or anything imparticular, just some that are red. I could be wrong though.

I am sure if you call they call confirm this.

I had a 106 on the reading accuplacer which was the equivalent to a 15 reading level. I got in... but I also had the highest points possible for the Math (I have taken calculus) and A's in all my pre req sciences (Ana 1&2 and Micro) And B's in all other classes they asked about.

I guess I had a 106 too on the accuplacer because my reading level was 15 as well. I don't have my sheet in front of me. I had the 15 points for math (i took statistics) I got points in all fieds on the placement system except Patho and Health Assessment.

How's evryone's checklist coming along? I mysteriously lost my shot record somewhere between February and now... Grrr! I also have a very short timeline to get everything complete because I will be on vacation from July 1-15. So I will have to turn everything in this month.

I have already turned in all of my documents to the nursing department. My titer for hep B showed no antibodies so I have to have the immunization series again :(... I can not wait for the 18th of July. Does

@ Tx Nurse 2 Be: Does you friend wear scrubs everyday to school or only to clinicals? I want to clean my closet out and debating on to keep some clothes or not... lol

I only had an 89 on reading (5pts). It seemed so much easier than it was. But I still got in with 121 over all points.

@blynn15- Well Clinicals are tuesdays and I only saw her on MW she never had scrubs on. If any day besides tuesday she wore them I would guess on thursdays when the skills lab is. I actually hardly ever saw the nursing students in their scrubs. Clearly I need to get on the ball with this checklist because I havent even turned in my intent letter.

I also have been researching the first semester schedule and I just can't wait! I want books and my syllabus now! I don't know if this is good or bad but the Aug-Oct section is just 1 class and the skills lab. So... either the class is REALLY intense or they are trying to ease us in. Lol

Hmmm... at SJC they wear scrubs everyday that is why I thought it may be possible.

The scheldule: I KNOW!!! I am so excited! Some students may still have other classes. I have med term and 2 pe that I need. Maybe it will be the time to take them! lol

We should start a FB page!
