You must be glad it's over! I've been cramming for my test coming up on Tuesday Let us know how you did! Also - I had a question for anybody - I'm having problems balancing equations quickly. I can...
I won't be finished with my pre-reqs until the end of next December. I was wondering what the quickest way to get into a nursing program would be? I'm currently going to OCC and I'd love to get in...
Anne, I don't think you should get discouraged. If it ends up that OCC doesn't accept you, there are many other colleges that most likely will. Just create a GPA goal? 3.0 and above should be great...
Chem is pretty stressful for my right now. I've studied about 12 hours this week and I feel like I haven't gotten the grasp on nomenclature still! We have to memorize polyatomic ions, families, and...
When I have difficulties with teachers like that, I usually read the chapter before going to that lecture or visit them during their office hours, that way I can have one on one time with them. I...
Agreed! I can't apply until next upcoming December, since I'm a freshman this year, but I have to take full time summer classes since they pushed the application deadline from May back to December....
I was talking to a woman who I identified as a nurse at my work because she was wearing scrubs. She told me that OCC is so competitive that there are 4.0's only and her fiance is trying to get into...
I am originally going to OCC and doing my pre-reqs. Well, I haven't done Micro, A&P 1+2 yet, but I was planning on taking Micro and A&P 1 during the summer and taking A&P 2 during next...
Wow, so you completed A&P 1+2, Micro, applied, put on the waiting list and while you wait that year, you'll be doing the other classes like Composition,
For those of you who go to OCC, I was wondering what was your GPA for your prereqs? I'm really stressed out about getting what I think to be 3.6-3.7 range right now. I want to eventually go onto...
Yes. Lets say you have a Composition class that was 3 credits that you received an A in. That'd be 12. You got a B in Microbiology, a 4 credit class, that'd be 12. You got an A- in Nutrition, 3...
Have you talked with your counselor? They'd probably know best. I know I had a semester like that, where I didn't even show up to my classes. That was when I just graduated high school, and they...
Hey - I'm still doing prereqs for nursing, so I thought I just might ask a question about myself. This morning I woke up and saw in the mirror a big bruise on my lower back right along my spine. I...
As my first year college attendee, I've already decided I want to be a CRNA. I love caring for people, and I love the science of anesthetics. I just had a question, this year, I'm just doing my...
Yeah, I was thinking about doing my BSN at Oakland University or State, I'm gonna apply in January perhaps. But wouldn't OCC be cheaper in the longrun? Although it'd take me 2 years to get my...
How do you know this? This is my freshman year at OCC, and it's gonna take me 2 years to get all my prereqs done! :trout: But that is exciting that there's no waitlist. I already did the math exam...
As a freshman this year to college (I go to OCC), I just signed up for general education classes because I didn't know my major. Those being Intermediate Algebra Intro to Psychology American...
I'm still working on my prereqs, but I attend OCC, to be 'first priority' to be accepted into the ADN, they want you to complete these prereqs with a C or higher: Microbiology Anatomy 1&2...
First of all, being a freshman at a community college and knowing what I want to be and being on these forums helps me so much! I love reading what everybody has to say. I currently go to OCC in...
So this is my first year in college, and I signed up for general ed classes at my local community college. In the middle of the semester, I decided I wanted to be a nurse, but unfortunately I didn't...
Thanks for all the responses! I just got home from work and was surprised at how many I got! It has really opened my eyes, as I've made sooo many counselor appointments and they've never said...
Yeah, as my first year in college, there are a lot of people doing nursing. My college counselor also stated that there is a wait due to lack of teaching staff. She said that nurses make more money...
