1. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

   hjhd replied to Squirmy McCoy's topic in Florida

   I was reading back through the recent posts and just wanted to comment for what its worth. I went to an information meeting with you know who (can't post names but the same person everyone else speaks with in the nursing office) months before I appli...

   The only grades that matter are your pre-reqs for the nursing program. If you failed a history class, it won't matter one bit. I failed an accounting class which lowered my GPA but it didn't matter since the nursing department only looks at the grade...

   I'm 99% sure it was multiple choice. We've taken so many tests since then it scares me to say for sure. I know the dosage calc was NOT multiple choice.

   I'm pretty sure that was the number of questions last term. It wasn't hard- very basic med term. You guys didn't have to take it on the first day? Lucky you! :)

   I think you can pretty much wear what you want, but totally agree it is FREEZING in the classrooms!!

   They both work- it doesn't matter since they do go in the front pockets of your uniform top. (I think one girl put hers in her pant pocket)

   I had a million questions too! For the record, it does seem to change from semester to semester, but at least for us, we were on the 7th floor. You go directly to the floor to get your assignment- it is posted at the nurses' station. (You will learn ...

   If you have the same professor I had this term in nights, with clinicals at Baptist downtown, she had our assignments ready at 12pm. I don't think it will be any earlier.

   It has nothing to do with Amazon. Its the new way FSCJ will be dispersing financial aid. :) Every student at the college, financial aid applicants or not, should be getting one.

10. FSCJ Instructors

    One of our 1st term instructors had terrible reviews as well, and honestly she wasn't 1/2 that bad. I strongly believe its what you make of it! You'll be fine! :)

    You don't need them yet. Really you can do without the dosage calc book too if you print all of the materials from nursing tutor and study them and do the practice. You can even google concepts you're unsure about. I would wait to see if you can get ...

    All of our instructors lectured in class using the powerpoints. Most of us printed them to take notes on, but I wouldn't think you would need an ipod or computer in class unless you want one. Also, I never had any issues looking at my phone during cl...

    You could save your money on the Taber's dictionary. More than one person told me it isn't worth the money but I didn't believe them and bought it anyway. It sits unopened on my desk. If your budget is an issue, you can easily skip this one and googl...

    Just keep telling yourself you will be a nurse in the end! :) I have to do that EVERY DAY dealing with FSCJ. It doesn't get better dealing with the nursing department unfortunately... BUT we will do it for 16 months and then we will be NURSES. :) Han...

    It is VERY easy. The powerpoints are very clear and to the point and really all you need to study. The book is nice to have extra practice, but the nursing tutor has extra practice too and after the first dosage calc test I never picked up the book a...
