i don't know how many people have submitted their deposit, all she told me was 6 people rejecting their seat and she moved down the list and sent out 6 additional letters. i missed it by 1 so if any of the 6 declines their seat i get in. the deadline for the 6 was either today or monday because he gives them 14 days then moves on.

well she sent out the next batch of letters which was 6 and i was number 7.... now i am number 1, so if any of the 6 do not reply then i get in... so i really dont know what my chances are, its killing me!!! im anxious to know if im getting in because my husband is in the caribbean for med school and he wants me to move with him i i don't get in ill move but if i do im staying. :confused: what do you mean by web advisor? is everyone suppose to sign in or something?

yes i did attend the meeting, it was very informative. i still don't know if i got in yet but i was told that they are accepting 30 im number 36 and a few pple that were accepted didn't even show up to the meeting. ill find out late may hopefully...

Hudini, MI is hiring alot of RTs if you click on this link you will see the jobs available http://www.indeed.com/q-Respiratory-Therapist-l-Michigan-jobs.html

yes I do attend HFCC, the program is suppose to be one of the best in the nation. im hoping to get into the program this fall, im keeping my fingers crossed. if you go under HFCC website it should give you all the info you need on RTs. this is what I found that summarizes the occupation. Respiratory therapists are health care professionals, dedicated to providing life-supporting, life-enhancing care to newborns, children, adults and the elderly. Respiratory therapists work under qualified medical direction to assess, treat, manage, provide diagnostic evaluation, educate and care for patients with deficiencies and abnormalities associated with the cardiopulmonary system. Therapists work throughout hospitals, most often in intensive care units and emergency settings. Therapists are a special blend of patient-centered caregivers and technically sharp, analytical thinkers. Some therapists concentrate on pulmonary rehabilitation and continuing care in patient homes or extended care facilities while others specialize in pediatric/neonatal care. The respiratory therapist may also work in areas such as cardiopulmonary diagnostics, medical equipment sales, management and education.

i was going to nursing but when i found out about RT i seemed like it just fit me better. actually there is a major shortage in RTs and they are on high demand..

Hi I'm wondering if anyone is going into respiratory therapy at HFCC? I just got a letter to attend the orientation meeting this month, but the letter says that I am number 37 and they only accept 28 for the fall 2010 semester. They want me to attend the meeting in case they do not fill the seats and I may be accepted into the fall 2010 program.. Just wondering if anyone knows the chances of me getting in this year? This makes me so nervous and confused

HUDINI, you know what is crazy i scored a 97 on my English u compass... why i couldn't pass the English portion on the NET i really don't know. i think it was anxioty and timing. but i have the test again june 6th and im almost 100% sure ill pass this time.. even if i do pass i still might stick with RT. I dont know yet

in addition to the ones i listed for you, you also need to have a computer class POLS 131 and BIO 234. its actually about the same as nursing but nursing requires you to take pharmacology instead of AH100. RT are also high demand just as nurses are. and a associates is also good, as long as you are certified in RT you can get a job anywhere. nurses get paid a little more then RTs by like $2-5 an hr so its not a big difference

Hi I've been trying to find a site for respiratory therapy students but cant find anything! i have a question tho, is anyone in the respiratory therapy program at HFCC? I just got put on the list and was wondering how long the wait is typically? they say 24 months but thats what they say with nursing and i know people have gotten in, in less then a year. i will be on the nursing program list also end of june i just cant figure out what one i would like to do.

i chickened out and didnt take it again. i have the test feb 2nd ive been really busy and life has been hectic. any suggestions?

my test is tomorrow and it is paper based since it is my 3rd time. i do feel prepared i did the second time i took it. i was doing great on the practice exams the ones on townsendpress.com.. the problem with me is that i get to worried about the time that i rush through the readings and end up not really thinking it through. i really do think that the paper one will be better for me. has anyone passed with the paper based version rather then the computer one? how is it any different?
