    LauJen replied to lalabean's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Zhockey- Your first clinical site depends on who your instructor is. I was on a med/surg floor. But ----'s students were on Cardiac. Although, my instructor @ Troy was an ER nurse, they made her...

    Does anyone's financial aid summary on their website have an amount there yet? I'm supposed to be receiving a pell grant, and I had to fax my tax forms over to them by June 1st, which I did, although...

    LauJen replied to lalabean's topic in Michigan Nursing

  9. ADN or BSN?

    LauJen replied to Kimberly6891's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I wish I had gone the BSN route from the start. Im in MCC's ADN program, and I didn't make it in the first time around. So, once I'm done, it will have taken me 4 1/2 years to complete the 2 year...

    LauJen replied to lalabean's topic in Michigan Nursing

    LauJen replied to lalabean's topic in Michigan Nursing

    LauJen replied to lalabean's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No, thats not allowed, and you cant put that in your pocket as far as clinicals are concerned. You are allowed to take notes in class with ipads, computers, tape recorders, etc. Skyscape is only able...

  15. Macomb Pharmacology

    LauJen replied to zhockeymom77's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No, apparently I had to ask for a switch by January 3rd, even though I didnt meet anyone till the 7th, so I dont know how I could have switched! But its okay, I couldnt ask for a better instructor....

  16. Macomb Pharmacology

    LauJen replied to zhockeymom77's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Lisa, did you already buy your drug guide bundle? If not, I can't recommend Skyscape enough for your phone/ipod. Today in clinical, everyone was complaining about having to lug their books around, and...

  17. College Clinton Township - Waiting on Spring 2010 letter!

    LauJen replied to LauJen's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I didn't transfer, I applied at both schools and happened to get into both. MCC will accept Bakers credits for A&P and Micro, and I had already done my other MCC pre-reqs, so I was able to apply...

    It seems like many people from Clinton Twp. don't seem to use this site, but if you are from CT, say hello! Anyone else waiting anxiously for their letters?! Good luck to those who are!!

  19. MCC 2011 Applicants

    LauJen replied to KatieBaby88's topic in Michigan Nursing

    One thing to consider is the amount of applicants they had last year. There were less than 500, because they had just implemented the new requirements of averaging only A&P, Micro and English...

    LauJen replied to gregsbouch0816's topic in Michigan Nursing

    That's nice of you...I bought the ones from the bookstore and hate them, and our instructor said we could buy another brand...so I did, and they won't take back the other scrubs at the bookstore, even...

    LauJen replied to zhockeymom77's topic in Michigan Nursing

    You wont need your nurse pack till week 5 when you do catheters, so dont bring it. I dont know why they put that on the syllabus, because the only book you MAY want to bring is Wilson, and you would...

    LauJen replied to zhockeymom77's topic in Michigan Nursing

    A lot of people do use their rolling backpacks, so you wont be out of place, but... I bought one at the recommendation of an October start, and I wish I hadnt because you really dont have to bring all...

  24. College Clinton Township - Waiting on Spring 2010 letter!

    LauJen replied to LauJen's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I created the this thread last year, hence it saying Spring 2010, not 2011. I did turn down my fall seat, and took a seat in MCC's program, where I'm very happy. I have no info for books,
