Christen, The first four weeks are f2f lectures. Then the next 4 weeks are on blackboard. You will repeat that again and you're done! Mrs. C IS AWESOME and you will love the weeks that you are on campus only 1 day!

Christin, Congrats on getting into the program! I had the traditional books. My friend however had an ipad and absolutely loved it! The pageburst program is so convenient and easy to use. You can highlight, do searches and can copy and paste to m...

I was in the hybrid class, which was 50% online and 50% FTF. I loved it. We had weekly assignments due on blackboard. She also posted her powerpoints with her lecture recorded into them. It nice to only go to campus one day a week when we were on...

Wow theantichick! I am only going into my adult/mental health semester but I will bookmark this page thanks to your awesome advice!!

Congrats ot everyone who got in!! It feels amazing now that the wait is over. I apologize for being MIA lately but have been on a week long celebration that my first semester is OVER! I made all A's got a near perfect score on my HESI and couldn'...

My access code for the NCLES3500 did not work. I am waiting to get a new code now but I have read that Saunders and Elsevier are good ones. They come with CD's to practice many more questions online. I just googled some but I need to invest in a...

TCC and Tarleton will have a partnership where Tarleton faculty will come to the TCC campus and teach. They will offer dual enrollment so you can work on both at the same time at a cheaper price!! And you don't have to reapply, when you get in to T...

And your welcome all of your hopefuls. I don't know if you saw it in our last threads but it has been said that the "creme de la creme" find allnurses! Hint hint :) And btw I had a 3.25 science and 96 on my HESI. It is possible!

This site seems to have good prices and they come with free engraving. Littmann Stethoscopes - Cardiology III, Classic II SE, Pediatric, Infant & Electronic, Otoscopes, Cherokee Scrubs I use the Littman Lightweight II. It's great because of the ...

I'm with Loly. (I was frantically reading their thread 6 months ago :)) I know it's hard to wait for the emails. Believe me, I was an alternate. #17 on the list no less! And it was the worst after all the emails went out and I still had to wait for...

Congrats Verna! That is awesome! So did you apply early for this job too? I have been keeping an eye on job posts and I have only seen one or two about nurse externs. Again, CONGRATS!

For the first semester you will need: Foundations book, pharm book, skills book, med surg book. They also recommend that you buy a care plan book, drug book, med dictionary, lab diagnostic book. My advice: the med dictionary, drug book and lab dia...

Good luck Verna! Twelve people is alot but think, you beat out almost 300!!! I know you will get the job. Crossing everything for you :) Oh, btw, which hosp did u go to? will it be close to you?

I won't argue with more points! HA! I hope everyone has a well-deserved, relaxing, amazing spring break!!!!

Student, abrn, jefe- congrats on a great test score! Student - I DEFINITELY have thought about doing clinicals at AMH. It's less than 5 minutes away!! But I am willing to go anywhere I need to tho. What about u?

I'm with you Jefe! I think we all did well enough!

@joshsmother It is true that the only factors (gradewise) that count and the 4 sciences and HESI score. They compose 50/50. If TCC has a points system, it is one that has not been disclosed to us. Just hesi and sciences. Now how they rank that on...

Hey all! Long time no chat! Did everyone survive the first test?

Hey All!! I decided to make a thread for spring 2012. I was jumping aroung to the fall 2011 applicants and fall 2012 applicants. So I made one for the coming up app period to avoid alot of double posting. I have heard from some of the spring 2012 app...

I saw you too TX! I was gonna shout out but thought your instructor might not like that. :) My prof told us that if you take the CID objectives and turn each one into a question you will have no problem doing well on any test! I like that info. ...

I know you will do great Tx!! It's nice to know that we have each other!!!

How was everyone's first day?? I was surprised that there was so much parking at the time I showed up. I had theory at 10. My instructor is fantastic! I was nervous about being in the hybrid class as I was prepared to take the traditional class....

Amen Cross!!

What a pain! I think rossy said something about that too. I'm glad that you guys finally got registered though. I am checking my email every 30 seconds because I am still waiting to hear back from the DL center. I cannot register until they clear...

What a nightmare. I called K in the nursing department and she said the didn't petition me b/c they did not have a schedule for me! If some of your remember from orientation, I was not on any of the schedules and SH penciled me in b/c someone was o...
