  1. Yes, Mt. SAC does have a waiting list. They use the lottery system. So, how long you'd have to wait really depends on the number you get. The smaller the number, the sooner you get to start. The Pham...
  2. taking the teas next month....

    You could get the studyguide for TEAS. I used that to study. The test itself was very straightforward. You just need to be able to do math quickly, that's all. I'd say get the studyguide. Good
  3. I think it is very possible to get into a nursing program with all B's. You should check with the school and see what system they use. If it's a lottery system, getting all A's or B's wouldn't make a...
  4. I went to the bookstore yesterday before class and was informed that there was no more box available. It seemed that they'd only take reservations (the lady told me that there were reserved boxes...
  5. Need your support guys.........I Feel like a real pansy!!

    You did the right thing by not getting involved physically. Your future is more important than a bar
  6. Hi studentnurse, yeah unfortunately they still don't allow any calculator for the first semester. Plus, we'll have to get at least 85% I believe on those weekly test as well. So, that's why I'm trying...
  7. Hi Suzanne, Wow, there were no jobs when you graduated? I would have thought that it'd be alot easier to find a job in 1994. Wasn't that when the nursing shortage was really high?. Hope the situation...
  8. PCC Lancer, Thank you so much for the information. I really appreciate it. Yes, I am male and I have actually been accepted for Spring 09 semester (starting this Feb). It's nice to know they like male...
  9. PCC Lancer, Can you give me some information about their clinical sites? How many hospitals do they have on the list and are there a lot of choices for students to choose from? Also, how about their...
  10. They indeed use the lottery system, so how long you have to wait depends on the number you are assigned to from the lottery. Sometimes, people get in at other schools and this could free up more space...
  11. I was very lucky. I waited for only one semester before I got called. I applied in April this year and I received my acceptance a week before Thanksgiving for the Spring 09 class. I attended the 5-day...
  12. You're very welcome! There are 7 sections on the HESI; Chemistry, Biology, Vocabulary/General Knowledge, Anatomy/Physiology, Reading Comprehension, Grammar, and Math. What sections you need to...
  13. There is a study manual for HESI (you can try google that). I didn't use it though cause when I found out it was going to be HESI, it was already too late to buy one (like a week before the test...
  14. Move to FL for schooling ?

    I agree with Caliotter3. If you've already tried it twice and haven't got a good news, I'd say go to FL. You already have a sister there who's willing to help you. Take the opportunity and go for it....
  15. I think if you have a competitive GPA, you wouldn't have to wait at all. I applied to PCC this past Oct.08 (can't remember if it's Oct. or Sept.) and I got my acceptance letter two weeks ago. It took...
  16. Hey Bella, thanks for the reply. At least now I know I'm not the only one that didn't get any e-mail. It was really odd that you couldn't see your results on other subjects (I took the test in the...
  17. Has anyone received any e-mail after they've taken the exam? I tried to log in to see my results but I don't have the Department ID. It says on the website that the Department ID is supposed to be...
  18. Mt. San Antonio College vs Pasadena City College

    Yeah, the acceptance letter came sooner than I'd thought. I'd finished the pre-reqs long long time ago (like two years back). That time I didn't want to go into nursing so I went ahead and got a Bio...
  19. Mt. San Antonio College vs Pasadena City College

    I've just received my acceptance letter last week for Spring 2009. I put in my application in April of this year (2008). So, I guess that is like a semester wait? The orientation is crazy. It's a...
  20. A&P or Micro first?

    At my school, we have one class for Anatomy and one class for Physiology (no combined A&P thingy). I took Anatomy first, then Physiology and Microbiology at the same time. Personally, I liked...
  21. advice on trying to get into nursing with a low gpa

    All you can do now is to try to get as many A's as possible for the prereq classes. Most schools I know do separate calculation for prereq GPA. So, you could theoretically have a 4.0 prereq GPA and...
  22. I don't remember exactly how much time I had for each section. However, what I did was I tried to answer every question in 1-1.5 minutes. That seems to be the general rule of thumb for taking the...
  23. I took mine 3 days ago, so hopefully I can give you some insights. Math is basically like what you said; simple whole numbers, fraction, addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, percentage and...
  24. "oh. . .You're going to a COMMUNITY college?"

    I plan to get my BSN in the future but for now, CC is the way to go. Sure, they've got long wait lists. Some of them even use the lottery system (which I don't agree with). However, with $20/unit...
  25. TEAS examination

    Hi, I just wanted to share my experience with everyone who's preparing for the test. I actually just took mine today in the morning. I was so unbelievably nervous! I had only a week to study for it...
