Anyone on here that goes to Oregon Coast Community College? I'm just wrapping up my pre-req classes and will be applying to the nursing program this coming spring. Just wondering if there is anyone out there that has been thru the program already and give me some advice.
I think my biggest fear at the moment is the entrance test (NET)for the program. Just what is on that test and how many questions are there? What should I be reviewing before I take the test?
thanks - Kelly:nuke:

Hi Kelly- I applied to OCCC and just took the entrance exam. How did it go for you? I wish I would have known what was gonna be on the test also. I spent way to much time studying for science and didn't even need to. That was a little bit frustrating. I wish I would have spent more time on reading. Have you heard anything on how many points people have gotten in to the program with? just curious.

Hi Candy ~ I was there too! The study guide I bought made the test seem like it would be more difficult. I wasted time on things like the slope intercept formula and all the geometry formulas! Then when it came to the simple math like fractions and percentages....well it took me some time to remember how to do those without a calculator. UGH!
We have about a 50/50 shot at getting in since there was a total of ONLY 42 applicants this year. I don't know how many points it will take to get in, but having all the pre-req classes done is a must. The only one I didn't have for points was the last A&P class which I am in now. I think it all just depends on what everyone that applied has done already.
I hear we will get our results back in just a few weeks and the college will send out letters of acceptance before June 1st.
If you are on facebook we have a nursing student grp page for the college. It's under Oregon Coast CC Nursing Students. Check it out, soon we will have a link on it to the Student Nurses Association club. Feel free to also email me at [email protected] anytime you want.
Take care and hope you get accepted!
