  1. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    I am pretty sure that they won't tell us for fear of giving out misleading or conflicting info, and then having their office full of upset students who believe they were somehow cheated because they...

  2. A not too competative GPA

    ZeppHead8 replied to NrseLaura's topic in Florida Nursing

    It all has to do with competition...the more people apply, the higher the "unspoken" GPA required. I agree, don't give up! A lot of us have been waiting awhile, and may wait a while still. Keep on...

  3. I hate it :[

    ZeppHead8 replied to vccorscc's topic in Florida Nursing

    Also, may I add...I didn't say what I said because I think that an overwhelming first week of nursing school warrants quitting I said it because of your own admissions that you seemingly didn't really...

  4. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    I haven't gotten anything...I haven't heard of anyone else who's gotten anything

  5. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Since all the apps were hand-written, they probably have to upload everything into the system manually. Then they have to double check transcripts for fulfilled requirements, number of...

  6. I hate it :[

    ZeppHead8 replied to vccorscc's topic in Florida Nursing

    +1 for the above The last thing you need to be doing in life is choosing a career because you thought at some point you SHOULD do it, or to fulfill someone else's wishes. There are a lot of people out...

  7. Best Hospitals for New BSN Grads in Miami

    ZeppHead8 replied to Pokytrokyt's topic in Florida Nursing

    Some folks have their opinions about Miami...if you read through Sunspot's other posts, you can definitely see a lot of frustration with the situation down here in Miami. It's not unique to nursing...

  8. MDC New Requirements for 2012

    ZeppHead8 replied to Sheeco's topic in Florida Nursing

    I would imagine that this is outdated information (I know, hard to believe there would be conflicting information out there about the nursing program...) It didn't mention anything about Microbiology,...

  9. MDC New Requirements for 2012

    ZeppHead8 replied to Sheeco's topic in Florida Nursing

    That's fantastic to hear! I also believe that a very friendly learning environment can only help everyone to become the best nurses possible, and continue to send that energy out to our future...

  10. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Total CYA thing...if advisors gave opinions, can you imagine how many ****** off people would be showing up with their rejection letters, complaining about how so-and-so said they would get in? It's...

  11. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well since you're cramming it all together, you've got a LOT of intense studying to do. I don't think you'll have an issue taking all those classes together if the system already let you register....

  12. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    As I understand it (and of course don't take this as absolute) : - There IS a fulltime generic program in the spring; - You MUST take the TEAS to apply; - You can apply without your pre-reqs being...

  13. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    I would GUESS that if you've got a combined entrance score of over 90, you're a lock for the program. But who the heck really

  14. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hey Marah are you signed up for it already? You got a reference

  15. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Is that a credit course? I had thought about it, but I figure I will definitely take it in the fall if I don't make it into or am not able to start the Fall Nursing program. I'd be interested to hear...

  16. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thousands are sure to apply...I would bet money on 2000. However, adding another component to the selection process would, I think make things quicker and easier. When they did it by GPA, there had to...

  17. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Marah, I heard the same thing you did... Early August does seem really late. That would barely give folks who are quitting work enough time to give 2 weeks

  18. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    This is potentially a dumb question, but I'll ask anyway. What are the physical exam and immunization requirements for the program? I know they also require a Federal background check and CPR...

  19. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    I hope everything works out for you! As I understood it, HG&D was an absolute must for pre-reqs, but if they let you CLEP out, great! Accelerated generally has less people applying to the program,...

  20. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Your competitive score is: Your GPA times 10 Plus Your TEAS score times .6 So: 38+ 45.18 = 83.18 Even a point higher on the TEAS helps!! Just bring your A

  21. Schools in Florida?

    ZeppHead8 replied to zippeh's topic in Florida Nursing

    Have a look at this link: http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-health-schools/nursing-rankings These are a list of graduate programs nationally, not Associates...

  22. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    ZeppHead8 replied to on eagles wings's topic in Florida Nursing

    Lala, I wouldn't really be able to say where you stand, but I think that the accelerated program will be less competitive than the generic program. Your GPA and TEAS give you an entrance score of...

  23. MiamiU Health System?

    ZeppHead8 replied to iridium54's topic in Florida Nursing

    Actually, depending on what type of housing you're looking for, there are some very affordable places to live on South Beach. Lots of older art deco type buildings that are easier on the pocket than...
