Nursing Students School Programs

Hi everyone!I

I wanted to make a group for all the people applying for the Spring 2020 program. Has anyone taken the HESI yet? If so, are there better tools than the book?

Has anyone taken patho at DCCCD? I’m taking it in summer for some more points. Has anyone taken the course taught by Drury or Rangel? If so, how was it?

I already took patho and it was through Mountain View. I am currently finishing up pharm. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell you anything about Drury or Rangel because my classes were taught by somebody different. Sorry I couldn't help you there.

@Ashleyann90 I took those two classes with those professors during the summer and got A's in both. Its not bad at all as long as you do the work.

Hey guys! I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on the point system so how many points do you all think is too low? just asking because I am trying to get an idea on if mine are too low to apply with or not.

What a tricky question. You can never know how many folks are applying, what if they missed something on their paperwork. I would always tell folks to apply, no matter what their points were, because what is the worst thing that could happen? But then again-what if you have enough?

I've seen high 20's get in (28, 29) from previous forums but I'd shoot for the 32-50 range. That seems to be the range that gets most people in.

Hey guys. This might be a silly question but what are the support courses? I've already taken Patho and Pharm. Are the support courses AP2, Microbiology etc?

@AllNursesgotoHeaven The support classes are AP2, Micro, Psyc 2314, and Humanities

@Jbar041 thank you! I'm ready to apply, however, I'm just finding out about this Q&A. I'm not too sure how to find that. I don't see it at the end of the info packet.
