FCCJ Spring 2008

Published

I guess all of you are going thru the same feelings I am right now. I have turned in my application at FCCJ for the 2008 spring term and it is killing me. The more I read on here the more frightened I get. This is my first time applying and I am so nervous!!! Any words of advice to get me thru this???

Hey, I'm so nervous too.. How many points did you apply with? I keep telling myself it's out of my hands now but it's still nerve racking..

I only have 184 points without my micro class. I am pretty much telling myself that I won't get in this time. I am going to retake the NAT before applying again. That is the only way to raise my points. If I don't get in I am going to be upset but will try again. I am so nervous and I am having a hard time focusing on anything else. I just wish they were more helpful and that I didn't have to rely on an external website to give me information.

What were your points?

Good luck to you!!

My points were 192.2 I'm still in micro too.. There is a girl in my class with 190 who is applying... There are other people from other semesters w/182 and 183's who got in .. I'm sure you'll be fine can you retake the NAT now?

I will reapply for fall 2008. I figure I will wait and see what happens and go from there. The worst part is, this is my 2nd go at school, and I have gotten all A's since I have been back. Some of my classes are from my first go at school and they are 2 B's and 1 C. I hate that they won't let me retake at least the class I got a C in. I am not the same person I was then. It just frustrates me that I can't really do anything to get my points higher except for that silly test. Totally Sucks!!!!! Can you tell just how frustrated I am. I have only given myself 2 tries. If I don't get in the second time, that's it!!!

But don't feel bad I'm driving everyone around me crazy too! It's just that this is such a BIG deal you know, and anyone who actually apply's has worked HARD to get here!

I've heard that they won't let you retake classes but I did just last sem. I retook human growth I had a b the first time and got an a this time.. I couldn't sign up on Artemis but I called and they got me in.

Oh yeah, I completely understand working hard. You said you were taking micro right now??? Who are you talking and how do you think you will do?

I'm taking Judith Davis I think I'll do fine (she is sooo easy) but honestly I'm hoping to be in before it matters how I do....

That is funny. I have Davis too!! She is easy!! I took her for A&PII and loved her. So I made sure to get her for Micro!!!

That is interesting that you retook a class. I will check into that. I took the C class over 8 years ago at a different college. Maybe they will let me retake the class. That would be nice!!!

Hi JSD....just FYI, though I'm sure you already know, FCCJ also offers their nursing program in the summer....so if you don't make it, maybe you can apply for May???

HTH
