  1. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    hjhd replied to Squirmy McCoy's topic in Florida Nursing

    I was reading back through the recent posts and just wanted to comment for what its worth. I went to an information meeting with you know who (can't post names but the same person everyone else speaks...

  2. FSCJ/FCCJ spring 2011 hopefuls

    hjhd replied to Squirmy McCoy's topic in Florida Nursing

    The only grades that matter are your pre-reqs for the nursing program. If you failed a history class, it won't matter one bit. I failed an accounting class which lowered my GPA but it didn't matter...

    I'm 99% sure it was multiple choice. We've taken so many tests since then it scares me to say for sure. I know the dosage calc was NOT multiple

    I'm pretty sure that was the number of questions last term. It wasn't hard- very basic med term. You guys didn't have to take it on the first day? Lucky you!

    I think you can pretty much wear what you want, but totally agree it is FREEZING in the

    They both work- it doesn't matter since they do go in the front pockets of your uniform top. (I think one girl put hers in her pant

    I had a million questions too! For the record, it does seem to change from semester to semester, but at least for us, we were on the 7th floor. You go directly to the floor to get your assignment- it...

    If you have the same professor I had this term in nights, with clinicals at Baptist downtown, she had our assignments ready at 12pm. I don't think it will be any

    It has nothing to do with Amazon. Its the new way FSCJ will be dispersing financial aid. :) Every student at the college, financial aid applicants or not, should be getting

  10. FSCJ Instructors

    hjhd replied to BigTuna's topic in Florida Nursing

    One of our 1st term instructors had terrible reviews as well, and honestly she wasn't 1/2 that bad. I strongly believe its what you make of it! You'll be fine!

    You don't need them yet. Really you can do without the dosage calc book too if you print all of the materials from nursing tutor and study them and do the practice. You can even google concepts you're...

    All of our instructors lectured in class using the powerpoints. Most of us printed them to take notes on, but I wouldn't think you would need an ipod or computer in class unless you want one. Also, I...

    You could save your money on the Taber's dictionary. More than one person told me it isn't worth the money but I didn't believe them and bought it anyway. It sits unopened on my desk. If your budget...

    Just keep telling yourself you will be a nurse in the end! :) I have to do that EVERY DAY dealing with FSCJ. It doesn't get better dealing with the nursing department unfortunately... BUT we will do...

  15. FSCJ Fall 2010 ACCEPTED

    hjhd replied to MLTinJAX's topic in Florida Nursing

    It is VERY easy. The powerpoints are very clear and to the point and really all you need to study. The book is nice to have extra practice, but the nursing tutor has extra practice too and after the...

    The day program has Baptist Beaches as a choice. We're pretty limited at night with just 2

    At our orientation, the day students each drew a number from a hat and based on that number were called up in order to choose their section. So you have the list of sections/schedules and decide what...

    hjhd replied to MLTinJAX's topic in Florida Nursing

    Not at orientation, it is on the first day of school, along with a medical terminology test. They are incredibly easy. The powerpoints and practice for the dosage calc makes it VERY easy- and the med...

    Yes, the uniform tops have to be from Meridy's. They have blue piping on the sleeves, are tailored and zip up the front... not a regular white scrub top. As unflattering as I imagined them being,...

    If you don't have insurance or you have a high deductible, the northside medical clinic does everything listed in the packet you need health-wise, and its barely $200. I think it might have been $220?...

    Congrats everyone! Such an exciting day- it makes me smile to imagine you guys jumping around squealing like I did when I got my letter.

    They haven't sent e-mails "in a time crunch"... we got our before 6wks- no time crunch there. It may not be until the 1st week of August, but I'm still hoping you guys hear something sooner! She would...

    hjhd replied to FCCJFall2010Hopeful's topic in Florida Nursing

    I would highly recommend buying your white pants locally so you can get the style you want and the right fit. You don't have to have special pants- whatever plain white scrub pants you like will work....

  24. FSCJ/FCCJ point system/withdrawing

    hjhd replied to CareerStudent's topic in Florida Nursing

    The cutoff for summer was around 197. If you don't have close to 200, you might want to retake some pre-reqs to up your score. But its very possible to do well on the NAT and end up with 200 points!...

  25. FCCJ/FSCJ Fall 2010 Hopefuls

    hjhd replied to FCCJFall2010Hopeful's topic in Florida Nursing

    You buy the books each term, but term 1 has quite a few books you'll use throughout the program. So it is very expensive, but not near $1200. I think the box was under $700, then there are a few extra...
