  1. Phlebotomy Classes in Michigan

    RNpatterson replied to Devoted2Nursing's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Washtenaw CC offers one with their non-credit classes (Lifelong learning). I took it last year and was a great experience! If you're a health professional already (i.e. you have your CNA...

    PurpleRN2B, SDO program? What's

  3. Too many people trying to get an ABSN?

    RNpatterson replied to espo44's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Lisa, You need to do what you feel in your heart is right for YOU! It would be easy for any of us to tell you to take chem and bio together... I would. Because I know I can handle it. I have a friend...

  4. Too many people trying to get an ABSN?

    RNpatterson replied to espo44's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Espo, My dad always used to tell me "those who want it most will get it." And it's very true. Those of us who want into that program more than anything in life will get in because we won't stop. We'll...

  5. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    RNpatterson replied to LovinbeingaMommy's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'm sorry.... there are three tests to be proctored because there's a midterm math test that goes along with the actual midterm. If you took the dosage calculations class at WCC (I think it was called...

  6. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    RNpatterson replied to LovinbeingaMommy's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Oh yeah... I forgot. I don't think I have enough posts, either. Lame. Well... there's a form you have to print from Blackboard from WCC's end (I think I saw that you are attending WCC right now)......

  7. University of Michigan (UofM) Accelerated program

    RNpatterson replied to LovinbeingaMommy's topic in Michigan Nursing

    JKB1999 - I'm sorry to report that there is absolutely no way to get into Pharm at WCC unless you're a part of the nursing program or have a conditional letter of acceptance. No exceptions. There...

  8. accelerated BSN for fall 2010 - looking for advice

    RNpatterson posted a topic in General Students

    Application season is upon us and I think those of us applying for the accelerated programs could use all the help we can get. For those of you who are starting this year, can you tell us where you're...

  9. WCCCD, Applying for fall 2010

    RNpatterson replied to nurs101's topic in Michigan Nursing

    glad it's working out. bummer that you have to take another test but if this is the worst glitch you run into, I'd call it a success. :) always glass half-full. and if you're able to go for the second...

  10. Least Expensive ABSN in SE Michigan?

    RNpatterson replied to 777RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    They're all about the same if you're an in-state student. U of M is the most expensive, but not by THAT much. I wouldn't focus on the cost at all. Even if it was $80K for the ABSN, I'd pay it. I'm...

  11. Thinking about giving up...Depressed :(

    RNpatterson replied to nrice28's topic in General Students

    DON'T GIVE UP!!! I was in a similar boat... going for a degree with a great GPA... planning on applying to med school and then my mom died... Science classes went down to C's; GPA slipped to 2.8......

  12. I'm in! How am I going to pay for this?!

    RNpatterson replied to Coruscatedgirl's topic in Michigan Nursing

    FAFSA is definately the first thing you need to take care of. Everything else will help you fill in the gaps.

  13. WCCCD, Applying for fall 2010

    RNpatterson replied to nurs101's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No; they took it at EMU. It was $20 and took about an hour. This might help; if anything give them a call and the school can give you more details on the test....

  14. I'm in! How am I going to pay for this?!

    RNpatterson replied to Coruscatedgirl's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Which school? What's the cost that you're looking at? Traditional program or accelerated. If it's accelerated you automatically won't qualify for unsubsidized loans but unless you are pulling in 100K+...

  15. WCCCD, Applying for fall 2010

    RNpatterson replied to nurs101's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I have a couple friends that have taken the TEAS and there are apparently non-healthcare-related questions that really have no place on the test... but other than that they studied a workbook (that is...

  16. Any University of Michigan students out there?

    RNpatterson replied to espo44's topic in General Students

    I'm in a similar boat. I graduated with a mediocre GPA but they don't care about that as long as you throw it in the essays. I had family medical problems; my friend was just young and stupid and...
