MDC Spring 2010

Hey MDC soon to be RNs:)

We've been leeching of the Fall 2009 thread too long. It has 78Pages so far. I just wanted to see if we could hear from those that are in.

Has anyone registered yet? Bought your books? Any recommendations? Anyone applying for the New UM Scholars or Baptist Scholars?

Btw, that was great news to hear that UM is taking over where Jackson Scholars left off. Even, for those not interested in the program it's great because with those 2 programs it adds another 80 seats to the program. Thus, lowering the GPA cutoff, which should be great news for those that will apply in future semesters.

I'd love to hear from those that got in the Fall 09 but I can't seem to locate most of them.

Did you apply for it?

No I haven't. I am applying for Fall 10. I have to turn in my application to MDC before Winter break. I just never even knew about the UM thing til I read this post and was wondering if there was like a webpage with all the info :)? That is really great they opened that up. Is it the same as the Baptist one?

Hey everyone,

Baptist called me today to set up an interview. I'll be going in on December 3rd. Aaaahhh. Slightly terrified and excited at the same time. Let me know when you guys hear from them.

Hi MDCupcake,

I just got my phone call and will interview Dec. 8th. They mentioned to be at least 15 mins before appointment, be in professional attire, and go in thru the main entrance and just ask receptionist which way to go.

Please, tell us how your panel interview goes, good luck to all of us.

Also, keep in mind even if we are not fortunate enough to be granted a scholarship, after the 1st semester of Nursing School there is another called HCA Scholarship Program that we can apply for. It's very similar but they have a larger range of over166 Hospitals and 112 outpatient surgery centers in 20 States. Main requirements are 2.5 GPA and letters of recommendation, online Gallup Survey, Interview questionnaire plus no essay needed.

In Miami they have at least 10, from Kendall Regional to Aventura Hospital.

MDCupcake, I just PM'ed you.

Prospective,

I wrote back to your PM. I tried sending it multiple times and it said I had no sent messages, so either you have like 5 copies of it or none at all. Let me know :-)

I'll let you know how it goes on Thursday! Good luck to everyone

Got em and replied back twice cause I wanted to add something that I did not mention in 1st pm.

I received a call from Baptist as well, my interview will be on the 8th! I am anxious and excited at the same time. Good luck to everyone and let us know how you all do.

Good luck with your interviews!

FutureFl,

Thanks! I'm really excited for tomorrow!

MDCupCakes...I am part of that baptist scholar as well...Interview very soon. They should have called already!

Tony

Hey Tony,

Good luck to you. Hope it goes well!

Ok the whole message I just typed up just got deleted, rawr. So, I had my interview today for the Baptist Scholarship. It truly was not my best performance as far as interviewing goes, I usually excel in the interview setting, but I think today was an exception. I wasn't even nervous, but I arrived 2 hours early, and all that sitting around ended up making me nervous. The panel was made up of 4 people, who were all very nice. They mostly asked me situational questions about past work experience. I really wish everyone the best of luck. Try to relax beforehand, and be confident in yourself. Let us know how it turns out. ( I really hope that I'm imagining it went worse than it actually did). Everyone please do not be discouraged by my post, today just wasn't my day. Good luck everyone, I hope we all get it.
