  1. Fresno City RN Applicants 23/24

    Yes, you are. They do not try to accommodate schedules at all. They do not care.
  2. Fresno City RN Applicants 23/24

    Every school is awful in their own way. I believe State let's you choose clinical spots based on your ranking in your cohort. So you don't get choices there either unless you're the top of your class...
  3. Fresno City RN Applicants 23/24

    You'll have clinical every week. Sometimes you'll have two clinicals a week. 630am to 3-ish. You could have clinical any day, including weekends. They assign you your clinical days and sites. They will choose your theory schedule as well. You're basi...

    With a 90+ you'll get in easily. The lowest score in my cohort was a 79. Mostly everyone had a TEAS score in the 80's.
  5. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    I remember most people's changing around noon to 4 the year I got in. A few an hour or two earlier. I think they manually go in and do each one so 220 people... takes a bit!

    90k isn't what it used to be here in Fresno. It's like the new 50k. You can find an HR based, Account management or sales based jobs that pay close to 90k a year base without getting yourself in 100k debt. I know, I had one of those jobs. ...

    I personally would not spend 100k at gurnick. They have a terrible NCLEX pass rate and you will graduate with the similar debt of a PA or MD grad.

    Best of luck to you so who have gotten in. It's not easy. 2nd and 4th semester will kick your behind. But just keep crying and grinding. for those who haven't gotten in: look into the PA route. I am almost done with the RN program, if I did ...

    👌 good luck.

    It's been changed for awhile. They draw preliminary lottery on merit. Lottery is drawn off of the people drawn from preliminary.
  11. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    👌 they have a preliminary lottery that's based on merit. Then the lottery itself after the preliminary lottery is luck. Good luck
  12. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    I noticed the majority of my cohort had taken their A&P pre req within two years of application. All A's and B's In A&P and Micro. No C's. At least half of them had bachelor's degrees. The ones who didn't had medical experience. Lowest TEAS ...
  13. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    They do a preliminary lottery before the lottery. Mine did the same thing. There was no method to the madness as to what the status stated. Some pending and some blank were selected and visa versa.
  14. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    You guys should go get your bachelor's degrees and go to PA school. I will have much more to say in May as to why.
  15. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    Yup.
  16. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    PCT in ER you'll still be changing people and stressing your body. Just do Starbucks and get an externship in or third semester. You're eligible second semester but second semester is so ridiculous you will want to work as little as possible second s...
  17. Fresno City College (FCC) - Fall 22/Spring 23

    LOL. It's the most disorganized program ever. There are no pros just cranky, menopausal women yelling at you because your hospital corners suck. It's hell. Just my perspective.
  18. Fresno City College Fall 2021/Spring 2022

    I have one lecture day (2 hours) and one skills day (8-3pm) the rest is online. Some people have two lecture days though. Depends on who you get for theory…. And honestly… who really knows what’s going to happen this Winter with Covid…. If...
  19. Hello, the nursing school I was accepted into states that any student who is on a prescribed controlled substance such as adderall, opiate or a benzodiazepine, etc needs to speak with the directors secretary and disclose this information to them and...
  20. Fresno City College Fall 2021/Spring 2022

    If you think that counselor is wrong, talk to another one. One counselor at city told me my very ancient Bio 1A was not the equivalent pre-req for Physiology and Micro. (Granted I had already taken Anatomy a decade prior....) I knew she was wrong so ...
  21. Thank you. Castlebranch is who my school goes through as well. I'll be reaching out to my disabilities office this week to let them know about her comments so no other cohort has to listen to that. Thanks again for your insight.
  22. Fresno City College Fall 2021/Spring 2022

    Can a current student speak to the Live Scan requirements for clinicals or background check for new students? Or is live scan just before you license? Getting a live scan this week for something else so just wanted to know if I can knock it or this ...

    Fall Cohort: if you were accepted into the Fall cohort, please message me so we can exchange contact information. Thanks!
  24. Fresno City College Fall 2021/Spring 2022

    Hey there, I start in the Fall. can you provide any tips to prep us for semester one? Anything to refresh on from A&P? Any supplies that are nifty? Does the nursing department choose our schedule for every semester or the first semester?
  25. Fresno City College Fall 2021/Spring 2022

    Is there a facebook or AllNurses group started for the Fall 2021 FCC cohort yet? If not I’d like to exchange contact information with the people in the Fall cohort. Laurasummers4582 at gmail is my fake email if you want to send me your info, I’...
