MDC Nursing spring 2014

Published

So I'm starting the post for Spring 2014. I'm currently waiting for my acceptance letter for fall term but just in case applying for spring is my back up plan.

So my GPA is 3.0 and my teas is 72 giving me a score around 73.

Since I didn't get a first round email for fall I'm thinking of retaking my teas test so if anyone is willing to study with me please let me know. Good luck to everyone applying for spring!!

First semester you will have lecture Monday and Tuesday. Pharmacology on Wednesday and clinicals on Thursday and Friday. Second semester is three 1 month classes where you go to class twice a week and clinicals once a week for 12 hours except psych that you go twice a week. Third semester is a 7 week advanced med surg class and then a 6 week leadership class. I work 2 days a week.

Is this accelerated schedule?

I called Nursing Unlimited (where I took the CPR/AED) no one has gotten back to me yet. When I get info I will post it here. I would prefer to just take the class at MDC but my schedule doesn't allow it. I really want to wrap up everything by mid November.

I did the nursing unlimited CPR/BLS and it was $60.

Ok so the place I went today for the CPR/BLS was a small vocational school this friend of mine told me about. The classes at this place are taught in Spanish, I did not know about this until I got there. I was kind of nervous because I wasn't sure how that was going to go, even though I know perfect Spanish and this is not my first time getting CPR certified, I'm used to all my classes being taught in English, specially for the terminology etc.

In other words, if you don't speak Spanish don't even try it at this place, their course is American Heart Association approved and all but in Spanish.

FYI: I did the CPR/BLS class today at the MDC medical campus. Although I bought the required book, a lot of students didn't because they said the book store ran out of copies. As a result, the teacher let them stay in the class and we proceeded without EVER using the book.

That's going to be the bridge schedule. I think the accelerated is a bunch of other classes like fundamentals, etc.

You're supposed to pick your classes at the orientation BUT you can pick them the night before. I have a COMPLETE nursing kit available that I never used for $75. Its the same one you're going to pay $100 for at the store. I think I also have a brand new white clinical top in XL that did not fit me. If you're an XL you can have it for free. If you're using the Brunners books I have both of them as well I will be selling cheap. I think I paid like $50 for both editions.[/quote']

Is the lab quote unisex?

@AMP31 IDK about lab coats, or if we need them but the scrubs seem to be unisex. They are also kinda ugly :p

I turned in my response form to the admissions office last week but the advisor that I handed it to kinda didn't know what he was supposed to do with it, so I'd like to verify that they received my acceptance form, seeing as the October 31 deadline is nearing. Anyone know which room I should go to to that? Should I head up to the Nursing department or just the normal admissions office?
