I posted a while ago in the Illinois section. No reply so I thought I'd see if it was just because its just not an active area or if there is no one on here from JJC. So anyway, anyone put in their application during the Aug 1st-15th open application...

I hope I get Adventist as well. I had Silver Cross last time and it was very nice but I'm only 5 minutes from Bolingbrook.

I do have one more question. Can you describe the lab coat and scrubs? I really hope I can use my old stuff. My scrubs and lab coat are all maroon. Lab coat has the patch on it. Thanks!

I need to figure out how much it cost too. Is it still considered 8 credits? 8x$103/per credit, plus fees? Plus books, ugh! I'm pretty sure I don't qualify for any financial aid this time around. Pell grant I miss you!

So they stopped doing the lotto registration? Its doesn't really matter to me since i'm evening program but it does seem off that there is no chance of getting an option anymore. Thanks for the info!

I've taken the test twice now, old version and the newer one. The first time I took it I didn't get a score like that. It might be something new because the version V gave me an "advanced" label.

oop!! total class>>mon, tues, thurs, friday. wednesday was off for me. didn't mean to confuse you. all the times are correct on my previous most just typing too fast and got my days wrong. red=theory, blue=clinical. wow, i made that difficult...

There was only one thing that I bought off the required list that I wish I hadn't. They had us buy a packet of drug cards instead of a drug book. It was to hard to keep organized. I ended up going out and buying drug book anyways. Other then that I ...

Ok, even though it was only two years ago I can't seem to remember my schedule. I think to get over the shock of failing by three points I had to block out that semester of my life:lol2:. So here is what I remember but I could be wrong. Nursing 150 i...

B&G, I only got a 74% overall on the test. But I did get 95% on the reading portion. Reading is 25% of the points you get while overall score is only like 20%. I think that is why it is so hard to compare person to person, too many factors. I hav...

Its a lottery system. Everyone picks a number. Lowest number gets the first choice for which section you want. Its goes from there until everyone has their class assignment. We should be getting a packet in the next few weeks with the classes and ot...

I know, I wish they gave us that information in our letters. I guess we don't really need to know but I'm curious also. Congrats! No one else in the evening program huh?

I believe they accept 60 day and 22 night. Something like that

Congrats to both of you:yeah:

Emails just went out!! I got in to the evening program!!!!! I am super excited to have the opportunity to do this again. Anyone else check their email yet??

Anyone applying for JJC's spring semester? I am actually a returning nursing student. I did my first semester in fall of 2008. Had a ton of family problems that occupied most of my time and failed by 3 points. I was so angry at myself for doing all t...

I took the TEAS V test today. Now I just have to wait until they send out the letters. So happy that is over with. I got a 74.7% over all. Did very well on the reading, average on math and grammar, and bombed the science. Not as high as I'd like but ...

Congrats Flutterbye. I have until friday, can't wait to be done.

I don't think its unrealistic to get in the first time. Like I said, this will be the second time around and the first time I did get in from my first try. I waited until I had everything to apply though, which it looks like you did too (you don't ge...

HI Flutterbye! I'm studying as well. What prereqs have you taken? Is this your first time applying? I'm hoping we get the email this week too. I work better when I know what my time line looks like.

Only one as well. ADN program at Joliet Junior College. At one point I had looked into a private university but the cost was too much. I have to stay local because of kids and work so my choices are limited.

Oh forgot to add... Yes they have an evening program. However, they only accept 20 something students a semester for it. Not that the 60 something they accept for the day is a lot either.

Thanks! From what I heard they don't accept anyone out of district. I know they use to say residents had priority so either way it would be tough.

I agree with the advise above. 2.6 would probably stop you from moving forward into a nursing program. Redoing A&P and micro would help a lot. Get better grades in those and see where you are after that.

Wow, she literally laughed at you? Really it depends on what your school policy is. My school doesn't go by overall GPA (thank goodness!) but by the GPA of the program's prereqs. If you have all As in your sciences there is a good chance your prereq ...
