The following is a timeline of the letters I received last year: Dated: April 14, 2014 It states: -- GPA used for ranking and then it states the Composite Score Used for Ranking -- Will begin ranking on April 24 -- If there is a discrepancy to...

Sweetp3a, That really is a subjective question because we all have strengths and weaknesses. I had to reflect on this question a bit. If you got that MCC acceptance letter in your hand after tackling the mailman/woman, YOU BELONG THERE! Nursing s...

I am currently in the 2nd semester. The classes are posted under registration so you can look at the times available to get an idea. It can certainly be difficult to decipher though. Some classes are only 4 wks so they are very fast paced. Typica...

I agree, the back pack I recommended was before I started the program. I currently use a standard backpack to carry my binders and only use that one above if I need to take my laptop with me somewhere.

The HESI study guide definitely prepared me for the exam. Having my A&P and micro completed also helped. I would say I actively studied a couple of hours per day for about 4-6 weeks before the exam. The math is what I feared the most. Pract...

I was actually surprised that there were only around 350 applicants that qualified for ranking in 2014. MCC even decreased the amount of test dates offered for the HESI. I remember the first time I applied there were like 7-800. Implementing the sp...

Many people go straight to the reading comprehension because the paragraphs can be long and they are more focused at the the beginning of the exam. Work on your weakness areas first before you fatigue. HTH

I'm currently in the RN program, August start. I had a 92% and 3.7103 GPA and I ranked #37, (I know you will ask) . I think you could work 32 hours in the first semester (weekends included). I do not work that much because I have support of my hus...

[h=1]Here's the one I will be using for the nursing program, I also used it for the PTA program at MCC. I got mine from target for $60.00. Looks like a backpack, rolls like a dream. [/h]http://www.swissarmy.com/us/product/Travel-Gear/Category/Colle...

I'm in, 3.71 and 92. I found out at noon, but couldn't post to let ya'll know cause I was at work. I was psycho texting my son to get the mail. Bet he's glad that's all over. :)

Four years ago I was an alternate in the nursing program, 30th out. I also got into PTA, OTA, RT, and Surg. tech. As soon as I paid my $100 for the PTA program, I lost my placement into the nursing program. Back then the PTA deadline was earlier ...

Hi! Unfortunately I did not get in. I'm #220 , I am an alternate, so that's what... 68 out. heheheh I feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. As much as I have a passion for helping people and anyone that knows me knows I do, I'm k...

You guys are hilarious. :wtosts::cheers:

LOL, that's cute :yeahthat:

Hello, I went to my appointment today and I qualify as unemployed (I asked about displaced homemaker and he said no). It was a long class, 1.5 hr., and it "seems" like a lot of running around, but actually it was a fairly simple process. There were a...

EEEEGHADS!!! Nope, not gonna commit "fraud" here. (No "F" word allowed) You are absolutely right "displaced homemaker" is not what I qualify under. The Michigan Works employee was sitting next to me and she suggested that I mark that box; I don't kn...

Hi there, thanks for the well wishes (heaven only knows I need them;)) I don't know your circumstances, but I hope you qualify for the funds! First, I tried to call MI Works several times and it's just not worth the effort. I didn't realized just how...

One more thing, most people don't know about the SAHM/displaced homemaker status. I was answering a questionare from them and "displaced homemaker" was on there and as soon as I checked it, nobody mess with me. It was almost a given that I would get ...

Hi Shannon, I'm not sure but here's a FAQ: http://www.michigan.gov/nwlb/0,1607,7-242-48049---,00.html#2 I have been home/unemployed for over 10 years, so I don't know the answer to your questions. I think if you were layed off from your last job, you...

Hello, just some random info on my experience with NWLB so far. It is definitely worth it to look into NWLB. There are TONS of funds recently posted in Michigan that are waiting to be used by folks who qualify. If you have a family income under $40,0...

Last year I received a letter dated April 3 (received on April 5th), stating my HESI and GPA scores that I would be ranked on. I had until April 11 to call if I had any concerns. It also stated the 2005, 2006, & 2007 average scores. Then I recei...

Raising hand here and adding fuel to the fire! I applied to all of the selective admissions except for Vet Tech. So does my application count as 5 or do they only count me as 2; one app. for Nursing and one for all the other Selective admissions? :tr...

Last year we received our GPA/HESI letters on April 5th. So you can relax for a couple of days...... yeah right....

I've been volunteering in the Oncology Infusion Room for the past 8 weeks, and I see my problems are pretty minimal compaired to others. It's my job to smile :anpom: I'm so lucky! Yeah, it's pretty scary the way Michigan's economy is heading, but ...
