  2. Broward Community College Students

    I got them from half.com. The one book was Fundamentals of Nursing. They use 7th edition, but I ordered 6th because its cheaper. http://product.half.ebay.com/_W0QQprZ30266780QQtgZinfo I also got...
  3. Poor economy = less applicants?

    I don't really know how it would affect the number of applicants. I see both sides of the coin. However, I know that at my school, the application period just ended, and it was the most competitive...
  4. Broward Community College Students

    Thanks. I already had all the calendar and reading list pages bookmarked. Just waiting for my books to arrive
  5. Broward Community College Students

    Oh well thats good then. At least I know they still let us in outside of the program. I think I remember seeing something about you applying at PBCC's program, too. Have you looked into their pharm...
  6. Broward Community College Students

    Right now it looks like theres only one class at north, and it doesn't say who the professor is. I tried to register for it, but since it's designated as a nursing class, it won't let me. I know you...
  7. Broward Community College Students

    I've heard that the first test is on like 600 pages or so of reading, plus I've heard a lot of people have trouble with Process 1 and 2, so I just figured I would order the books and start reading to...
  8. Lets Vent!!!!!!!!

    Ha, you sound just like me. I'm 31 and FINALLY finishing up my pre-reqs to get into the program. I knew 17 years ago I wanted to be a nurse (thats when I was a freshman in HS) but, low and behold,...
  9. Lets Vent!!!!!!!!

    LOL, well, sort of. It was on nervous tissue and the nervous system. But, yeah, the professor even said the material is tough. But there are people who get A's on it. Just not me I guess.
  10. Lets Vent!!!!!!!!

    I feel your pain. While I have a very high A in my A&P lab, in my lecture class I have a B. I needed to get a 98 on the test I just took and the one coming up, to end up with an A, and that...
  11. Broward Community College Students

    Thanks, I will check out the 6th edition
  12. Hospital Scholarships

    Yeah, I have no clue. I went by what the academic advisor told me, but I was going to check with Elizabeth Kenealy and see what she had to say. I have an appt with her soon. Its crazy, I took...
  13. Hospital Scholarships

    Oh...thats a little bit of a drive to MDC then for you. I'm taking pre-reqs at the North campus, and when I apply for the program, I'll be attending there as well. As far as a difference between AS...
  14. Broward Community College Students

    Thanks, I will check it out. To your knowledge, have the books remained the same for a while? I'd hate to get them and then have the books change once I'm in the
  15. Broward Community College Students

    Can anyone tell me if the name of the book they use for Nursing Process I and II (at North Campus) is called Clinical Nursing skills and Techniques by Perry/Potter, ISBN 9780323028394?? And...
  16. Is Keiser a good RN school?

    I don't really know much about the program except that its relatively newer. But it is much more expensive than a CC. I read on one of these forums its about $18K plus books. Thats 3 times the...
  17. Hospital Scholarships

    Hey Wanttoleave.... Are you looking into MDC for nursing as well, or just BC? The reason I ask is because MDC has an accelerated program for those who have a Bachelor's degree in other areas. Aside...
  18. Broward Community College Students

    I'm not in the program yet, but I am finishing up pre-reqs myself, so I have tried to gather as much info as I could about the program. I remembered reading the answer to this question on this...
  19. Broward Community College Students

    I don't know from personal experience since I'm not in the program yet, however, I've heard that north seems to have less horror stories than central and south. Good
  20. PBCC-palm beach comm. college

    Oh really? I had no idea since it was 2 different sites, lol. Sorry. That makes it confusing they call it Workforce One and Broward Alliance. Oh well. If I find anything else, I'll pass it
  21. PBCC-palm beach comm. college

    Sure. Sorry I didn't think about it before....it was still early and I was still half asleep. Its called Workforce One. Here's a link to the part of their site that talks about the money for...
  22. PBCC-palm beach comm. college

    Thanks for all the info! I found another place that does something like this. They give you up to $6000 (lifetime maximum) but I really don't know much more about it yet as I just found the info....
  23. PBCC-palm beach comm. college

    2benurse- I remember you mentioning there was something similar in Broward to Workforce Alliance. I tried googling Workforce Alliance, and that seemed to be an only Palm Beach County thing. Do you...

  25. Applying to BCC Jan 2009

    Thanks. That is what I plan on doing. Nothing else I can do. But, I think I'll end up with minimum 12 pts. Plus I already took pysch, planning on taking Micro summer semester 09 (this way its done...
