MDC Fall 2011 =)

Published

Hi guys! Who else is applying for MDC Fall 2011?

I am also applying for FIU-- I was accepted last year to MDC but for financial and personal reasons could not attend. :'( Who else will be applying to Generic FT? Please state what program you will be applying to!

I will be taking the TEAS sometime in March, in which I will also be taking the HESI A2 for FIU. So I might as well be studying for both, lol. Anybody taken the TEAS at MDC? Share your experiences here! :) I will be using a general book for nursing school entrance exams... it's by Barron... and I will be studying my math from a nursing calculation book, and my sciences from my anatomy, biology, and other notes. Is it true there is geology on the exam? How irrelevant... lol

Well good luck to us all! :heartbeat

Has anyone been registered yet? I just received my background confirmation email from MDC. I already know what classes I want, but I'm not sure what to do next. When i looked at the open class search, I didnt see many of the skills labs or clinicals left for full time...

I received mine too but haven't heard anything about registration. I called and they said to just keep checking my schedule for fall because they are going to enroll us.:uhoh3: :hdvwl:

It's strange that the background confirmation is just a couple of lines of text, no attachment, and looks completely unofficial. I kept looking all over it for something to click on that would take me to the 'real' document.

Ohh, now I'm getting stressed out over this email that I'm still waiting for! I'm trying to just stop checking for it and hopefully I will spend most of tomorrow unconscious after the anesthesia! lol I give up........:banghead:

It does look very plain doesn't it? That is also the first thing I thought. No MDC logo or anything. But oh well, it appears to be it. Perhaps the fastest route was to make it an automated response email, lol.

I sooo need my schedule already. My boss really needs it :( I'm anxious to see it already, waaaaah

I wouldn't worry about it. I went to that fingerprint place only a few days after we got the info in June and it still took MDC over a month to get around to it.

they told us we have nothing to do with registering for classes. they do everything for us

Thank you for the encouragement - maybe tomorrow when I get home, it will be on my email :)

Hi Guys!!!

I've been trying to chase down my CPR card and TB paper...ugh!!! I haven't gotten my email yet :uhoh3: not that it matters I'm still not "complete"..But for whoever has a book advance, we can go buy uniforms and books on Sat..:idea:

see you all soon!

I sooo need my schedule already. My boss really needs it :( I'm anxious to see it already, waaaaah

Have you tried to check your fall schedule today? I just checked again (about the 10th time today:rolleyes:) and my schedule was there!:D:redbeathe I'm sequence 1.

Tanabella,

I can't believe they didn't give you your cpr card Wednesday.:smackingf

Check your schedule anyway because you never know.:)

Anyone know why they administered that "self-assessment" test (not the critical thinking one)? It seemed very similar to the MMPI which is used for a lot of law enforcement type jobs to eliminate applicants they predict my be unsuitable. It evaluates honesty, trustworthiness, and other personality characteristics. Not sure how those would be expected to change dramatically by going through the nursing program.

When we took it Tuesday, that (self-assessment) was the second test. They said it was to see what kind of people we are and we won't be taking that one again. The first test was the critical thinking test. That one is the one they said we will take after our first semester. If you log on to ATI's website and click on proctored exams you can pull up your results for the TEAS, critical thinking (if you took that one today), and the self-assessment. :)
