FCCJ SPRING 2010

Published

I know it is a little early, but anyone plan on applying for FCCJ's spring 2010 program?? If I can get my Nat points up and if I do well in Micro this summer , I will be ready to apply!!!:yeah:Finally!!

well it depends on what section you are in. I'm in section 8 and my schedule is as follows. Monday is testing 3-5 tues is 9-12, wed 9-12 and 1-4, thurs i have off, and friday i have class 8-130. Some people have class every day so they dont have 2 classes on one day. 2 of the classes are hybrid so certain weeks you won't have class.:) hope that helps!

Thanks Fanny. Do you choose your section, or are you assigned to it?

you draw a folded up number from a bowl and then they call numbers in sets of 10 like 1-10 11-20 so on and thats how u get to pick the section you want.

A few more questions for those who have "gone before" just because I can do nothing else but wait until they mail Summer decisions:

-- What are the classrooms like at North campus? I saw a few in that hallway when I dropped off my application and they had those awful, uncomfortable, chair-attached-to-the-desk things more appropriate for elementary school kids. Please tell me the nursing classes aren't in those rooms!

-- What kind of practicing do you do on your classmates? Is it just basic stuff like BP/heart rate, or more personal like bed baths, oral care, etc?

-- Do you find it necessary to have a rolling backpack for all the textbooks and supplies I'm hearing about?

-- Do most instructors allow you to tape the lectures?

I only take tests on North Campus and for those, yes, those are the desks. The Deerwood Campus has tables and chairs.

-- What kind of practicing do you do on your classmates? Is it just basic stuff like BP/heart rate, or more personal like bed baths, oral care, etc?

NS's do not do ANY personal boundary crossing and NO invasive procedures on each other. The closest thing to this would be your Full Assessment check. You wear limited clothing as you are assessed by your partner.

-- Do you find it necessary to have a rolling backpack for all the textbooks and supplies I'm hearing about?

For the most part, print your power points and take notes. Books are for home.

-- Do most instructors allow you to tape the lectures?

No.

As for the last answer to your question, it is at the discretion of the teacher. I had a classmate who recorded every lecture, from every teacher. You just have to ask. Unless there is some new rule in place.

Does everybody take their classes at Deerwood?

My friend said that the people he knew took every class at North Campus.

In the room we used for testing, there was an old "teacher's desk" on the side and had a normal chair. Our classmate who weighed 350 at the start of NS used that desk instead of the chair/desk combination.

(BTW, he has lost over 50 lbs! So proud of him!)
