   I’m currently a student. BMCC has a weird fixation with shoes for clinical. They have to be completely white and cannot be sneakers or have obvious markings on them, like logos. Some people wear the...

   Yes, I agree you should wait on all these. I took my BLS course through Heart Start (that’s what the school requested). It was in person and $75. Some things you won’t need unless clinicals are in...

   Yes, conversions, calculating ml/hr, drops/min, reconstitutions. You will get a ton of practice problems before the exam if you attend the

   Yes. I think you can find a pdf version of an older edition online for free. I don’t recommend buying anything yet since BMCC will want you to buy a specific package that includes the

   No we do not take the HESI A2. Nobody dropped out in my group, I’m not sure if anyone failed or withdrew. I don’t think so. You get a lot of chances to up your grade since there are 5

   that’s how they did it last semester. They sent an email saying that they’ll send a Zoom link and they will also be in touch with those that didn’t get in. And then a day later I got a zoom...

    HESI is a company. They administer the entrance exam but also the standardized exams at the end of each semester. The standardized exams do not affect your grade and they’re based on the material...

    Jules10 replied to NCCN's topic in School, College Programs

    I think you’re confusing the entrance exam with the HESI exam that every nursing student takes at the end of each semester. That’s just a standardized exam to see how everyone is progressing....

    Ohh sorry, I misunderstood. No, you do not need to register for a class for Spring if you took a class in the Fall and you’re already a student at BMCC. If you get into the program, they will...

    @jss1985The lottery is exactly that- a lottery. Meaning if you applied to the day program, there are two different groups (mornings and afternoon). Each student is randomly assigned to one of the...
