  1. I have never heard that someone who got one of those letters didn't get in the program. So far I have seen everyone who has gotten that letter has gotten in.
  2. it usually is a sign you are in. I can tell you that because all the studrnts who get that are the top picks for the program. I got one and got accepted. I have never heard of someone getting that letter but not getting in. I know what it says on the...
  3. I hope you all make it. Times are very tough with the cut off GPA of 3.8. Its mainly due to how tough things are. When I got into the program more then a year ago, the cutoff GPA was only a 3.5. Big difference from a 3.8. It is very stressful to get ...
  4. I have been coming to this sight a lot lately. I am off the wall with this whole process on getting into the MDC nursing program. I applied to the generic program for Fall/2008.. Basically I am waiting for the acceptance letter which they already tol...
  5. Private universities are easier to get into and if you want to apply to MDC then apply to theaccelerated. That should increase your chances.
  6. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    I am not sure how it is working now, but when I started in the program the school gave us our skills bag with sterile gloves and everything.
  7. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    The seat deposit does get paid back because they include it as payment for your classes. So for the deposit I would not worry.
  8. About a year ago students with a 3.5 were accepted with no problem at all. I am so surprised with the whole budget cut and everything. I mean with the shortage of nurses now and everything this is just going to make things so much worse. I am also sa...
  9. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    That first semester is a lot of stress. It only gets worse too. Its amazing how insane school can get.
  10. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    I think about a week or two before the will send you something. I would enjoy my time off.
  11. If you have your CPR just make sure that you do not have it expired before your program ends. Make sure that it is valid while you are taking classes! And congratulations! You know what they say...better late then never. On a lighter note you still ...
  12. Miami Dade College

    Study and readt and do ots of practice questions from ATI and other programs. Honestly I never thought that nursing school could be so hard, but it is intense. I have never been through so much because of school. Just know that you have to celebrate ...
  13. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    I also wanted to make a note that even if you make all Cs in nursing school you can still get into grad school. They have a lesser pool of applicants and for most places all you need is your RN license to get iin (for example FIU). Most nursing schoo...
  14. I just wanted to make a point that nursing school is NOT about the grade you get, but about the material you learn and your patients. In nursing school grades do not mean anything, as long as you pass. The most important part is understand the materi...
  15. New semester starts soon! And along with it come the new nursing students!!! This is so exciting.
  16. Anyone starting RN at Miami Dade College Fall 2009?

    I can not believe that students with a 3.7 GPA are not getting in!!! Things seem to be getting really bad. Do not worry, because for us already in the program it has been a struggle. We have a Critical thinking careplan, and pharmacology exam we have...
  17. Hey guys! Does anyone know the cut off GPA for this semester? I was just curious.I am in my third semester right now, and we are having a lot of budget cuts in the nursing program as well as in all of MDC and I was curious as to knowing if the incomi...
  18. Miami Dade College

    I am so sorry for any questions that were asked.....I was finishing semester two and it was insane. It is the most difficult thing I have ever had to do......WOW! I recommend Marie Etienne for Med surg. She has a wonderful pass rate and her students ...
  19. I was just reading that soon the new deadline is coming up and everyone will be getting their letters! I thought the worst part was the wait to get into the program, but then comes the wait to get the test grades, and the wait to see if you passed, a...
  20. Can anyone tell me about psy nursing???? I am going into my third semester, and I decided to take psy in the summer, to get it over with so I can have a nice last semester. Everyone keeps telling me that it is very difficult and hard, and a lot of ph...
  21. MDC GPA Info on getting in :)

    P.S Med-surg is hard, but not the hardest class in nursing school like I thought, take Marie Etienne and you should be fine. She provides a lot of study materials and even gives study guides for most of the test which help sooooo much. I think the l...
  22. MDC GPA Info on getting in :)

    Nursing school is scary and hard, and they really like to play strict, they don't care if you are about to jump over a cliff, you better get everything done and walk on the line or you are out. If you work hard and you do everything it is ok, and yo...
  23. So excited about the end of this month already!
  24. Miami Dade College

    Well I hate pharmacology, and Med Surg is a breeze. I laugh at how hard I thought it would be. The professor is excelllent and just makes it all so easy. With pharm I screwed up on the first exam, and studying it is soooooo boring. I can not manage ...
  25. Miami Dade College

    Well I have very limited time to study, because I have kids so in the afternoons I do not really study, and well...weekends are the only real time I have with them and my husband. I am not having a problem with Med surg, I know it is hard, but I like...
