Hi everyone, I currently go to Mt. Sac at the moment and will finish all my ADN pre-requistes for Rio Hondo this summer. As for the selection criteria they use overall, I feel that my application will be highly competitive. However, my definition of ...

Yeah they have microwaves in the snack/supply store. People buy microwavable's and cup noodles all the time!

I want to say I heard it was $120 for two uniforms, not 100 percent sure though.

You know it!

Congrats! My score was barely 70 so my chances were already pretty slim. I did however receive my spring email! Good luck to you guys.

Dang, it seems evident now that our chances for fall semester is over. They are probably working on sending out alternate and spring semester emails now.

Nice! I have a really good feeling that some of you guys are going to end up in fall.

If they say it's not wise to buy a book one edition older, then I would recommend renting the current edition on Chegg. It seems that nursing classes are exactly 2 months long based on the mtsac class schedule. Chegg allows you to rent for 3 months w...

I asked Barcode if students have to pass the dosage exam with a 100 percent and he said this: No. You can miss a max of 3 questions out of 20 to pass each dosage calc exam (remember, you have one dosage calc exam for EACH class; don't worry though, t...

Hm yeah, I believe the Davis's Drug Guide comes with additional stuff so I would probably buy the new current edition. However, I'm hoping they are ok with us buying older editions for books that do not come with other resources.

The Mtsac bookstore website does not seem to work for me so I called them instead. They said that they provide a bundle package where they offer all the required books for the first semester for ~$600. You would save some money if you bought it this ...

i believe we will find out if we got into fall or spring semester on May 16.

Ah icic. I actually went to my appointment and verified everything. My final score is 70.5 and saw that I was right in the middle of the list. I'm pretty sure I'll be in for spring 2015 starting in February. Mtsac is not everyones first choice so I'm...

So they sent out 160 emails. 60 students for fall + 20 alternates and 60 students for spring + 20 alternates?

Since this is a 4 day orientation, how are people supposed to do attend that without it conflicting with work? Cause I intend to work part-time while going to school.

Yeah I'm assuming...but not 100 percent sure.

If I remember correctly...20.

I understand they are just verifying official transcripts, but do they want to verify other paperworks such as volunteer hours? Also did they let you know if you got in Fall 2014 or Spring 2015?

I wonder what Mtsac's retention rate is?

Hey guys I just received the same email on being a potential candidate today thru email. I want to let you guys know that there is hope for those of you who do not have a top notch score. My final point on the multi was 70 and HesiA2 was 81.

Update: So originally, I was very very low in the alternate list. However, they told me to keep calling because people can either decide other schools, not pass the teas test, or not meet the deadline on time. Months have passed and I did not give up...

Yeah they lady at Rio Hondo was kind enough to tell me I was in the alternate list. Are you sure that the emails sent out from PCC are for Generic ADN students and not LVN to RN or something?

Hey guys! Well, its been close to a year now since my original post. I applied to only two schools Rio Hondo and PCC. I called in for Rio Hondo and found out that I have been placed in the alternate list. However, they won't tell me exactly where I s...
