Im not a previous nursing student, I also got in for the fall, but wanted to share what I do know, which isn't much... Classes are 2 days a week. Practicals are either one 12 hour shift or two six hour shifts. Depending on what is assigned to you. Whe it comes to studying Im not sure but I have heard that you should spend a minimum of 15-20 hours a week... guess it depends on the person. At the orientation there will be a booth selling scrubs, but I have heard that scrub world in Denison has a rack just for GCC nursing students and they are like $24 a set.
