MCC nursing applicants for 2015

Published

Hello everyone!

I've been obsessively reading over the threads for the 2013 and 2014 applicants, but I thought I'd see if anyone will be applying to the Nursing program at Macomb Community College for 2015. I am a transfer student from Texas and will be taking A&P this summer then intro to Nursing (since MCC requires that you take their specific course) and micro in the Fall. I'm so excited to get back into school and was wondering if anyone is following along the same timeline.:up:

I haven't either! My paperwork says that registration for the Hesi for this cycle starts July 23rd so that's when I am going to register. I think I'm going to select a late December or early Jan test date.

do you have prerequisites left? I was surprised that MCC only required 4.

Oh and btw get the hesi book NOW this is just a tip for people who have not had anp in a while or are just forgetful like myself lol... the book is great !!! all the skills in the book will be on the test !! If u study the book therally u will do great . The only subject the book does not cover good is anp please i repeat please dont ONLY study the book for anp use other sources notes lab books online sources ex. but if u are theral when studying the book for every other subject i rrcomend take atleast 2months for studying u should do gud in all other subjects and should have enough points from those subjects too afford to miss half or most of anp lol its only 25 #anp questions on the test as well ... hope this gives u a little structure when studying ... if i had not spent 80%of my study time on anp i would had been able to do extremely well in the other subjects and probalky would had got well in the 90% anp on the test is like trivia questions if u luck up and get questions on parts of the body u know great if not then u are s.o.l got 40% on anp but still was able to get 82% on my test .... try to get the latest test date to allow yourself more study time

Thank you so much for giving us all the info. Im really nervous about the vocab part of hesi because I feel like its going to have words I have never seen before. Also the math part. People told me that the division and multiply signs are taken off the calculator provided for us. Is that true? Thank you in advance.

Hi Deanna!

Thanks for the info! I am definitely going to get the Hesi prep book ASAP. I am waiting on financial aid as well so I feel your pain. It's good to know that you can do well in the summer A&P course. I'm taking it starting in July for the six week "speed course" as I call it lol. I am going to buy the book as soon as possible and start reading and looking over it next month though. Hopefully pre-reading will help!

We should start a study group for the Hesi! Maybe reviewing like once a week during the summer/fall would be helpful.
