Hey everyone!
I applied at MCC and Palomar for the Fall 2018 cohort with ~79 points. I received an 85 on my TEAS, 3.67 Science GPA, 3.2 Fixed GPA. 5 points for CNA as well as 5 points for 100+ hours of relevant experience as I work in a hospital. 3 points for fluency in a language. and 1-2 life experience points.
Any advice for getting started with pre req ? I'm graduating high school in June and was accepted to multiple universities but I hear it's to hard to get any science classes until you have 30 units under your belt so im thinking of going JC route. Any suggestions? TIA
A suggestion would be to get your required GE classes completed. I entered my JC with 23 units from a previous college and when I started the call semester at the jc, I took only 12 units and they were GE classes. This was before I started my science classes.
I got my science and majority of classes completed at MSJC.
I jumped right in to taking my Science courses because high school AP Bio, Chemistry, Physics, etc. was still fresh in my head. I took 3/4 of my sciences over the summer semesters (because most people aren't crazy enough to take A&P and Micro in 8 weeks). It took a lot of focus, determination, and WORK ETHIC, but I did it. My GE classes came after once I felt I was burned out.. I could "relax" with my degree elective requirements. :)

Hello everyone!
I am not sure if there are any other threads like this one, but I wanted to start a big discussion on everyone's experience as we all push through this crazy rollercoaster of ADN acceptances/rejections. This is for anyone applying to Palomar, Mira Costa, MSJC, Grossmont, or any other Southern California ADN programs!
