JJC Spring 2017

Nursing Students School Programs

Hi all! I'm applying right now for the Spring 2017 class at Joliet Junior College and wanted to see what everyone is scoring on the TEAS?!

That is what mine said. I figure it is going to be 5 days with the weekend and holiday. I just want to get my essay done before my vacation.

Hi all. I got my email too. Does anyone know the exact content of the essay? Is it just why I want to be a nurse? BTW I got a 79.3 on my TEAS and only need A&P2 and micro for prerequisites.

Good job! Can I ask what your GPA is? I think they tell us the topic if the essay when we get there.

I saw in a thread from a previous applying group that the essay was about being a nursing. I'll just be glad when this process is over! I am not good at sitting on my hands.

I signed up for July 19th at 8am to do the essay! I still have Bio 250 & 251, and micro to take. I only got a 67 on my TEAS which I'm nervous about. But she said that me not having Bio 250&251 done yet would hurt my chances a lot more than my TEAS score. Hopefully my essay is enough to get me in! I have a lot of writing experience so hopefully it'll be enough! Good luck to everyone! August is too far away!:yawn:

Just do your best- and if not you will be that much more prepared for the fall application. I had a 75 but only have 4 of my pre req done. Still need both A&P, Psyc 215 and micro. But I will have 3 of them done this fall.

How is everyone preparing for the upcoming essay? Anyone hear from previous nursing applicants what it's on? I'm getting anxious! :nailbiting:

I saw a post before saying the essay was about how you being a RN will impact the community and your plans/ goals of being an RN. I'm sure they rotate it every few years. I would just be sure to know your punctuation and how to be brief and on point. And not to sound like Miss America ! LOL

Anyone else as anxious as I am :confused: lol. I know Paul said at the essay session that the middle of August is when we will get emails, but I check my email like 10x a day haha! Good luck to everyone!
