It's at the discretion of the instructor. I was able to use my phone in clinicals but I do know there were others that were not. If you don't want to buy the big three pack I actually found a small pocket drug guide on Amazon that is so much easier...

I got the Littmann, I had originally had an Adscope but the Littmann was much better.

It was late for me lol trying to figure out child care with only two weeks notice was not easy. Classes were assigned. Not sure if anyone gets preference on requests.

Just so you guys know and aren't disappointed like I was, you won't get your class schedule till the end of June if you start in August/October and I started in January and didn't get my class schedule till right before Christmas, it sucked having to...

It's Lisa (the brunette one) lol I thought we outed ourselves already?? Lol yours wasn't too hard to figure out

I've been following your thread the last couple days, I'm part of the 2012 group. I remember like it was just yesterday the anxiety/excitement waiting for my letter! It's crazy because you have to wait on EVERYTHING, since they let you know your st...

Yes. I know we use a lot of the books throughout the program but there are additional ones we need to buy later on too.

I wanna say all the classes were about $1100, almost each class tacks on at $100-$150 course fee. Plus I paid about $600 for books and maybe another $200 for the various supplies. If you don't have insurance you'll have to pay for your physical, ti...

Thanks for all the inspiration :) This is mine: "So don't be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble, to fall, cause most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most."

We didn't find out how many people applied until right before we got our letters so I think it was mid-April. If you go to one of those Nursing Seminars at MCC, they tell you what the average scores were for the people who got in last year. I think t...

You have 8 weeks of just lecture/lab and then your second 8 weeks you have a one day clinical. So if you started in August, your clinical would start in October.

From what I've heard we don't need to bring the big Taylor book, they go off the PowerPoint slides. I'm going to leave it in my car just in case lol that book is heavy!!

I'm in the Monday lab too :)

Me too! Although I'm getting so nervous though as the reality of what's to come is kicking in lol We we will eachother in Fundamentals in the morning :) What are your lab days?

I start the program tomorrow, it feels like yesterday I was sitting where you guys are...it was a LONG wait, but now that it's here, I feel like it went fast lol and just be prepared, you will wait for EVERYTHING (your ranking letter, your acceptance...

The money is in your account on the Macomb One card I think. This is my first sememster using financial aid so I'm not 100% sure. For the patches I bought the ones from the Lab so they were already sewn on. But yes I would say to sew them on, not...

Are you in the program now? We got an email from the school with our login information.

Yes you reapply every sememester and whatever money you don't use you do get a check for I believe. I know for me between classes and books I didn't get enough to cover it all (I got the Stafford Loan). If you go to Macomb's website you can find ou...

When you are accepted into the program you are ranked with your fellow students - your rank is based on the combo score of your GPA and Hesi. Your ranking determines what your start date is (August, October, January, March), so for example #1-40 sta...

su85 - It's the 6 hour lab, 1165 I think. JLJ11405 - Yes, there's no summer sememster for Nursing at MCC, just Fall and Winter

So did I! Finally lolI got the Saturday lab. Not too thrilled about that but it is what it is lol

I bought almost all of the books on the list but I know an October start and she told me what she hasn't used yet and what she uses all the time so I figured I would save some money and just buy the stuff she said they always use. I got: The Drug Gu...

Hi! Yes, I got everything about a month ago. There was a form you had to turn into the nursing office with a space to have all of the immunizations filled in. Did you not receive anything? Everything was due into the nursing office last Friday the...

Yeah the syllabus just said latex free, and non electric.

Righ there isn't too much. I was just including the uniforms etc. there's also a Bp cuff, protective eyewear, I think that's everything else I can think of.
