  2. Hello future nurses! I am starting this new thread for everybody that is planning to apply to County's nursing program for Fall 2014. I am still waiting for their posting the information session date...
  3. There is nothing to hear after you submitted the packages. It is all done. And the boot camp in August is more than just an orientation, it is an introduction into the nursing and clinicals; and why...
  4. You really don't have to know the specific date, we cannot possibly know our graduation date two years from now. You just choose an arbitrary date, somewhere in mid June of 2016, any date you like...
  5. I don't think we will be getting anymore calls from the nursing dept unless there is something missing in your package. Next step would be the boot camp. I hope to see you at the boot camp
  6. She doesn't have to talk to ---------------, whoever picks up the phone, just tell them that you are declining your spot in the program. Also, the deadline for submitting the medical package is July...
  7. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    Hi Dragonfly! You asked me to tell you about my friend's status with LAVC, she told me that she got in :-). I guess they started notifying
  8. Well, I am pretty sure I gave a lot of information here, I wrote some long, extensive and detailed threads for people, I don't know what more one can need... I am afraid I can't help you with PCC, it...
  9. Yes. I applied to three schools and I was accepted to all three ( PCC, County, and lacc) but I chose lacc as I know that the program is good and organized, plus it's much, much cheaper than County's....
  10. Just to give you a picture about the days; everything is subject to change, of course :-) Mon from 8-3pm (or even till 4:30pm) Tue-clinicals from 7-5pm Wed-clinicals from 7-5 pm Thur from 9:30-4:30 pm...

    I second everything excited said. :-) Good luck to everybody and may we all have a great nursing
  12. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    This sounds familiar from some students from previous year threads. I presume it is tough because they don't have enough preparation for the clinical portion so they are just thrown to the wolves....
  13. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    I believe that County's students struggle because County's program doesn't have extended classroom skill lab hours to prepare students for clinicals. That is why LACC's schedule is so long because...
  14. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    I saw County's schedule of classes in my acceptance envelope. Their schedule seems pretty light compared to LACC's schedule. We do our clinicals from 7-5pm, and lecture days are almost until 4:30pm,...
  15. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    Haha, mac & cheese and ramen noodles for two years :-). Been there, done that ;-). Anything is possible when you have enough will and courage to do
  16. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    From my personal perspective, I would never risk my spot in the nursing program. It is extremely competitive to get into one these programs, and once one gets to be accepted, one should not forfeit...

    Not everyone's application is the same, even if they have the same points. They look at every application individually, their essays, their science gpa etc. She got her points from volunteering and...
  19. Nope! Lab Skills are done in school, in lab classrooms to help us be better at clinicals, it is a sort of preparation for clinicals, where you practice on dummies and on each other, gulp :-)....

    Hang in there! You should get it tomorrow, hopefully :-). Fingers crossed for
  21. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    My classmate who applied to County and LAVC just told me that she got her rejection letter a few hours ago. She said she had 77 pts, according to her calculations. Now she is waiting to hear from...
  22. Los Angeles County of Nursing - Fall 2014

    Thank you! Yes, it feels good to be accepted at County since their acceptance is based on merit. At least I know that my grades and all the hard work counted
