I took my HESI test today, I'm so confused - this is first time our school is using such a test for an entrance exam. My problem is no one at the testing site could tell me what a passing score would...
Carla14296- Yes there was a Jan pilot program. I missed getting in by three people. As for the 2008 program I already have submitted my application for the 2007 program. They are going to send out...
Carla14296 - Chemistry, biology and A&P are not on the HESI test. It's just vocab, grammer, basic math, and reading. Don't sweat the HESI test most of the people I know including myself thought...
Carla14296- You were asking about Micro teachers. I think Karen Persky is a great teacher. She's a tough grader but you learn alot from her and she tries to make it
Hi I'm attending COD. I was on the list for the Jan start for the nursing program. The last time I check with the nursing dept. in November all the spots were filled. Also, this past year they...
I heard that their program is very good. Now having said that I must say "don't pin all your hopes on COD". The amount of applications they receive is insane. I have been on their waiting list and...
I took the HESI test already. The test is very basic, basic math, grammer, etc... If you go to their site you can get a study guide there. It will show you exactly what is on the test. My school...

I sat in the back of the room. This is my second time applying. I was on the wait list last year and wasn't called. Came pretty close but not close enough. I have my fingers crossed for you. I'm done...
They require it at my school too. I like it because it helps you prepare for your clinicals. Also, since I have to make money while attending school it gave me a chance to get a job as a PCA at my...
I have finished both A&P 1 and 2. I wouldn't say one was harder than the other, just more work. I found A&P 1 took more time and work than A&P II. In my A&P I, we covered all the...
Another thing that you might want to consider when entering a ADN program in Illinois is if your in that school's district or not. They give preference to students in district first and with the...
I was thinking the same thing as you Donna about the amount of application. Maybe it's a combination of the HESI test and now we have to pay $100 deposit fee when we receive our acceptance letter to...
I had my first A&P 2 class last night. I was so surprised we only have two lecture exam and two lab practical and then the final which is so different than A&P1. The other thing I was suprised...
No, that's all you need. It is my understanding from Donna and a couple other people that the more you have done prior to entering into the program the better. Did you take your HESI Test already? I...
I'm took my A&P I and II with Dr. Finan, she is a good teacher. As for my Human Development and Growth I'm taking it by video course ( I start to tomorrow - I let you know how it goes). I...
Weekly math quizzes ??? We were taught how to convert tsp to ml etc... in the CNA class. I had trouble at first until my instructor gave me a few tips. In fact that was in our final for the class. We...
I'm still in the process of getting my pre-reqs finished, I only have food and nutrition, micro and one other class, but I think I can get them finished before the start of the program. I was...
Thanks Donna for replying. How do you like the program. I submitted my application in August and I'm keeping my fingers cross that I can get in. Any tips you may have for the program I would...
