El Centro-ECC 1st semester schedule

Published

Does anyone have any input on what to expect as far as our schedules for the 1st semester? They told us it would vary the 1st seven weeks, but I am trying to figure out what that means on average...number of days and length of days, and when it gets more regular. THanks.

Well i can say its very erratic!!! Everything changes quite often and sometimes we had school on days that previously were not on the schedule. Last semester i had skills lab Monday morning for about six weeks and then it changed to Friday after lecture. I had clinical on Thursday 6.30-6.00 pm. We had a wound care seminar sometime during the week and there was an exam that was on a different day than it had been scheduled. The thing is you will be in school maybe three days in a week but its different for everyone. If you have a two day clinical then you might be in school 4 out of 5 days. It all depends. I would advice you to wait and see what your schedule is and then decide what to do. I had so many problems last semester with my job scheduling that i had to switch to weekends. Am sure some people had better schedules but i wasn't one of them. It all depends.

I am going into 3rd semester. The schedule when I was in 1st was usually 2 days of 1/2 days for Skills Lab. Then around the 3rd week we started our hospital clinical and this was 1 day a week..then down to 1 day that was skills lab. After the 1st 8weeks everything calmed down. But every semester so far the first 8weeks are the craziest.
