I was in your position before so I totally know what you mean. I wish someone had broken it down in an objective manner for me when I was making the decision between schools, but I made it through the program so I believe you will too.

I wanted to add that GCC's grading scale is a bit tougher (not really sure why). GCC's "A" is from 91-100% and a "B" is 82-90% whereas at PCC it's 90-100% for the A and 80-90% for the B. Same minimum 75% to pass. Believe me when I say that 1% will make a difference haha

One advise I have for you guys is to look into concurrent BSN programs. You'll take BSN courses during the summers. I believe we are officially partnered with CSUF, CSULA, and APU. Some of the clinical sites are only available to students who have a previous bachelors or are concurrently enrolled in a BSN program. I'm not sure if I should post the name of the hospitals, but if you get the chance just PM me and I'll let you know.

Not able to PM you, can you PM them to me? Perhaps that will work around their minimum requirements

If it's ok with you can you also send that info to me? Thank you for all your advice and input! It's greatly appreciated, all this process can be overwhelming. [email protected]

I didn't see that in my packet. I read it over several times.
Thank you so much!

No worries. It wasn’t in there, I ended up emailing Allissa and she was fairly quick to respond.

Is anyone else having trouble with the Wolters Kluwer website? The drop down menu only has an option for Fall 2019 and thus the incorrect books for us. I tried reaching out to PCC but haven't received a response for a few days.

I haven't even tried it. I just assumed we had to wait until they clear ya for registration and it would be available. Did you reach out to Allissa by any chance?

Thanks. I emailed her at the end of last week but I know she is extremely busy. I'll just wait a bit, I'm sure It will get updated soon enough.
