  1. How does MCC Nursing program class scheduling work?

  10. I start school Monday.....I'm soo nervous!!

    I'll chime in here too, I'm in the 1800's. What makes nursing school so hard (for me anyway) is the sheer volume of material being covered, be it in lecture or through the reading assignments, and...
  11. Too early? wanted: MCC acceptance letter

    The acceptance letter will give you a deadline by which you have to pay $100 to save your spot in the program (and no, it's not refundable). If I remember correctly, it was only maybe a week to pay...

  19. Macomb Community College HESI Exam

    My insurance covered everything, but I heard some people talking about getting their vaccinations through the health department. I don't recommend waiting until January to take care of it, because...
