Newly Accepted JJC Nursing Students

Published

I just received an email letting me know I was accepted into the Nursing Program at JJC for the Spring 2012 semester! :clown: I am still on cloud nine!

I'm looking for any advice that people may have that have been through the program, or for other newly accepted students that would like to meet and be there to help each other once we begin.

Thanks!

I agree. I am wanting to get prepared right now. It is going to take forever for the 17th to get here. I am really excited I hope someone who is already in the program can reply to your thread and maybe let us know what to expect, and give us some good advice :)

To jun1120,

I got into the night program. To give you an idea on gpa and teas: I have a 4.0 gpa. Teas: reading- 88, composite- 88. Email me: yanmartin69@yaho and I can assist you with study tips.

Has anyone received a packet in the mail yet?

No, I haven't received my packet yet either.

Jun1120, definitely consider taking the TEAS prep classes offered at JJC, they are only $5 each if you are an enrolled student (so $20 if you take all four components: Math, Reading, Science, and English). It gave me more of an idea of what was emphasized on the TEAS.

I also purchased the study guide online for $40, then sold it to a Radiology student once I found out I was accepted.

My GPA was also a 4.0, TEAS composite 92 and Reading 97.

I got one piece of advice from a student in her third semester, and that was to invest in a decent stethoscope...
