  1. 2010 Macomb Community College Applicants.

    jazznjac replied to McGinnis's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I just registered last week and there were still lots of openings. So I'll see you there!! :-) Yes, I'm applying both at Macomb and OCC. Thanks and good luck to you

  2. 2010 Macomb Community College Applicants.

    jazznjac replied to McGinnis's topic in Michigan Nursing

    They do have a calculator on-screen. I tried to do the math on paper though, and a calculator as a check. They don't let you go back on any questions, so you have to make sure you have the answer...

  3. 2010 Macomb Community College Applicants.

    jazznjac replied to McGinnis's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I don't know about the B. I would say you'd probably still be OK as long as you rock the HESI. By rock, I mean I'm guessing a 94+. Completely guessing here though. I would suggest you call the...

  4. Oakland community college or Macomb??

    jazznjac replied to jclore01's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I think the biggest thing for a lot of people are the different requirements for both schools. I am planning on applying to both OCC and Macomb this year. The application deadline for OCC is Dec....

  5. OCC gen ed?

    jazznjac replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Any suggestions for making it easier on them? Do I need to get a 'progress report' or anything prior to the Dec. 15

  6. OCC gen ed?

    jazznjac replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I think you'll be OK, as long as you have one fine arts/humanities to satisfy the prereqs for the program. Too funny, I was just looking over that requirements flier reading all the fine print just...

  7. A&P 2 Summer

    jazznjac replied to Anne36's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Anne, I feel your pain....I too have been sick, must be something going around! I haven't had the nausea (which is probably the worst), but both of my kids have also had it. Ugh! Definitely makes...

  8. OCC pre-req transfers to Macomb?

    jazznjac replied to JaaaeyRN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Jaaaey, yes, you are correct. I have to take BIO 2710 at OCC if I want it to transfer to Macomb, since I plan on applying to both OCC and MCC. Bummer because I hear it's a pretty tough class! Other...

  9. A&P 2 Summer

    jazznjac replied to Anne36's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Yes, the 8 wk at AH. You taking it there? Congrats on your

  10. occ- gpa cutoff?

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    OK...waiting for administrator to 'accept request'!

  11. occ- gpa cutoff?

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thank you KellieB!! That seals the deal on me retaking the one course I have a 'B' in (comp II). Congrats and good luck to you when you start the program! It's been awhile since I attended the...

  12. occ- gpa cutoff?

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thanks Grensa! That gives me some idea as to what the pool may look like for 2011. Congratulations to you! Enjoy your first year!!

  13. RN to MSN programs

    jazznjac replied to djmatte's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I would definitely check Wayne State, as you are already working down there, it's an excellent school, and I know they have a program. As does Oakland University, so you might want to check that too!...

  14. OCC GPA!

    jazznjac replied to Jessalynn3869's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'm sorry to hear that!!! Maybe try talking to the head of the department? If it's any help, A&P at Auburn Hills is great! If you need/want to retake it, I suggest AH. I also heard Southfield...

  15. OCC - 2009 applicants / 2010 ADN prospective students

    jazznjac replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I agree with whosur....did you get the approval for the class substitution in writing from the dean? That would seal the matter right away! Be sure to contact the Dean of Nursing, as well as the...

  16. 2010 Macomb Community College Applicants.

    jazznjac replied to McGinnis's topic in Michigan Nursing

    MsAshley, the three courses you mentioned are for GPA purposes for admission to the program, however there are other pre-reqs required before you can take certain nursing courses, i.e. PSY, PHI,...

  17. OCC - 2009 applicants / 2010 ADN prospective students

    jazznjac replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    rivasl, you are sooooo close that I would bet that after tomorrow (deadline for those accepting entrance into the accelerated program) you'll get an acceptance letter yourself. I can't imagine that...

  18. OCC Math Placement Test

    jazznjac replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Michigan Nursing

    You can download a practice test from the OCC website too--pretty much identical to the real deal. If you can do the practice test without much stress, you'll do fine on the actual MPT. Good

  19. OCC- insane!

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Anne, I'm a firm believer in the power of positive thinking, so I would suggest you not allow yourself to accept 'failure' as an option. You WILL do great in your prereqs, you WILL get accepted into...

  20. OCC- insane!

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Good question! I would think that A- is equivalent to a 90-93%, as most profs, that is their grading scale. However, like you mentioned, if I get 97% in a course, does that equal 4.0 at OCC? I...

  21. OCC- insane!

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I think you'll be OK as long as you also have some 'A' grades in the mix. If you calculate your GPA (credit hours x grade) / credit hours = GPA, a few solid 4.0s in there will bring it way up. I'm...

  22. occ- gpa cutoff?

    jazznjac replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Does anyone know what the accelerated cutoff is? Or what the deadline is for those who want in the accelerated program? I'm applying for 2011, but am seriously considering retaking a class I have a...

  23. OCC - 2009 applicants / 2010 ADN prospective students

    jazznjac replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Congratulations to all of you receiving your letters today!! I feel like I've been waiting right there with you, although that will be me next year . Your hard work is finally starting to pay off!!...

  24. OCC - 2009 applicants / 2010 ADN prospective students

    jazznjac replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Also, I talked to the HL counseling department today and they told me that by Friday, Monday at the latest, they would know the minimum GPA that got in for 2010. Good luck to you all who are waiting...

  25. OCC - 2009 applicants / 2010 ADN prospective students

    jazznjac replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Mocha and Moe...thanks for the insider info!! :-) I'll be applying for the 2011 program in December, so now I'm trying to schedule the prereqs I need before the deadline. I'm torn as to whether or not...
