OCCC BADNAP Class of 2011

Published

Hey,

I was just checking to see who all will be attending the OCCC BADNAP program starting this June. If you are, let me know~:)

The TEAS test is another application component they are going to incorporate, probably for next year's program. My mom had to take it while she was in the program because they are going to use the scores from her class as a baseline for future applicants. The students in this next year's program will probably have to take it as well, but it doesn't count towards your grade or anything.

Still no letter, acceptance or rejection, for me :confused: I'm going to OCCC first thing Monday morning to hopefully get things figured out, but this has been the longest week ever for me. I wish there was some sort of receipt or something that they'd give you when you turn in the application. I'm just really worried they lost it or something... Just have to keep thinking that since I didn't get a rejection letter 'no news is good news' at this point. Just really nervous :(

Thanks! My patience was definitely tested this past week lol

Met with ****** and dropped off my clinical preferences and the immunization stuff I have so far. Unfortunately 2 weeks ago I got my MMR booster after getting my first TB, not realizing that I'd have to wait another month to get my second TB since the MMR can react with it :( Oh well...I'll just put it in my calendar :)

What was everyone's clinical pref order? Mine was Deaconess, Baptist, McBride, Southwest, and MWC.

My clinical preferences were McBride, Midwest, Decon, BMC and finally SWMC. I and my wife worked Baptist on the Cardiac transplant unit before and I've picked up shifts at SWMC and didn't care for it. I hear it's remodeled now. McBride is a natural for me if its surgery but my luck it will be med/surg floor duties. :(

April 6th I will have all my paperwork in. I stopped my the bookstore and talked to the lady there. She showed me some Cherokee series 4100 scrubs that closely resembled the handbook. She did not know what price they will be listed at nor if they were even going to carry them. I can get scrubs at a discount at work but been looking on the web for the best prices.

Monday morning I took my acceptance letter and clinical prefs in. I'm in Houston right now working on the RV for T. Her assignment will be done mid April so hopefully she will work in Ft. Worth and help me with the home duties.

My favorite bookstore next to the pizza place down by 7-11 is gone. Time to comb the bookstore at campus and scan ISBNs and look on the web. (There's an app for that! lol)

I need to go on vacation in April. Time to clear my mind, body, and spirit to become available for BADNAP. We are going to New Mexico where T is from. We own a piece of land there.

May 13th is her birthday. I will be in school. : ( Oh Well!

Take care all and looking forward to meeting people here. I will post prices and other information as I find it.

I faxed in my clinical preference form yesterday. I picked SWMC, Baptist, McBride, Deaconess, MWC. I also did my background check online and enrolled in a CPR class. I have all of my immunizations but still lack the TB test. I'll do that next month. Lots to do!

BeeDubs,

I went to drop off my stuff yesterday as well, and I was thinking of you while I was there. I am glad you figured it you figured it out. Congrats on getting in! Your poor nerves. I was stressed waiting for my letter, it must be much worse knowing you should have gotten in and not been able to do anything about it because of Spring Break. Yipee! Howdy to all future classmates!
