I'm here! I really really really hope that we get our letters Friday or Saturday. I'm doing the Race for the Cure on the 15th so my mind will be off of the letter at least for a little bit! :lol:

Hi TXMOM. That is great you are doing the Race for the Cure. I really need to get into something like that. Either for Breast Cancer Awareness or for the PKD foundation.

Wow, I feel deserted!
Where did all y'all DCCCD'ers go?
Ok, I know, I am on here way too much.

I have not deserted you!! I promise! I have been trying to avoid this place because it stresses me out! I can't believe the week is finally here. These days are just creeping by. :uhoh3:

*sending vibes to the mailman*

I have to practice deep breathing in prder to stay calm.

lol

Hi everybody!

TXMOM · Oct 10, 2005

OK, now I'm starting to think...Are they sending the letters BY the 15th or ON the 15th?

Hello to all! I check in each day to see if anyone from our group has received their acceptance letter. I'm hoping we get our letters on Friday. Then if not Saturday, Monday for sure! If I have to wait past Monday I will probably go insane. I can't believe this is our last week.

Good luck to everyone. I hope we all make it and get our first choice of schools. It's nice to know I'm not all alone in stressing out.

I'm still here too! I guess the big question is, will it be Saturday or Monday when we find out?

Those of you with morning mail delivery have an obligation to the rest of us to let us know the moment you hear anything! :chuckle

NurseSomeday · Oct 10, 2005

I get my mail around noon, so I'll post as soon as I know something. I have a feeling it will be Monday.

Fun2, BSN, RN · Oct 10, 2005

It was bad before, but now it's REALLY bad! I can't keep my mind off of wanting to know!

I guess this is teaching us patience. Then again, I know I'll be paying for the quick results after taking the NCLEX!!! :rotfl:

LKG6 · Oct 10, 2005

I get my mail around 2-3 pm.

I don't even know what time mine comes. I check it in the evening. lol

If I get in here & see other people received their letter, I'm running out the door right then!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

I am thinking we will get it either Monday or Tuesday. I would be happy to get it on Saturday because I don't want to have to go through the whole weekend to wait. We don't get our mail till around 3 pm. I am getting so nervous!! I was talking to a professor here at Eastfield who has been around for a long time and knows a lot about nursing and the schools and he said that El Centro has a HUGE dropout rate because it is so hard. THey do have a high percentage of people who pass the NCLEX but in reality most people who go into the program drops because it is really hard. Something else to add on to my stress.

That is why ECC's reputation is so high. My aunt graduated from ECC's nursing program, and never regretted a minute of it.

I know how you feel though. I think, Even if I can get in, can I do it? and Even if I can do it, can I pass the NCLEX?

The only thing we can do is go in, determined and motivated, and remain dedicated to our studies.

I'm sure it will be Monday or after. It seems to take longer to get mail from city to city, than state to state. lol (That horse can only run so fast!) :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
