Hello everyone! I didn't see a thread for Collin College Spring 2015 (July 31 deadline), so I thought I'd start one, especially since there seems to be a whole new point system that they will be...

Yeah the new point system doesn't count anything other than what's listed (BIOL 1406, A&P I & II, Micro, PSYCH 2301 & 2314), so it wouldn't include Comp & Statistics. If you can, try...

For the PSB, the main issue is TIME - you should practice speed reading for the reading/comprehension, spelling, etc parts b/c there is hardly any time to get thru the questions! I think on some of...

You would have to take both A&P I and A&P II (or A&P I and Micro) over the summer in order to be eligible to apply (then take the remaining pre-req in the fall) - which is doable b/c...

Thank you NurseRebe for the info! Does anyone know what the skills pack is that we have to order? I couldn't see any info about what it actually included. Also, I saw the email today about the...
Hi there! I can't answer your questions about the tsi stuff but the pre-req's aren't too bad and should take you less than a year. I had a previous degree so at least a few classes I had already taken...

Hi Alicia! Congrats and welcome! I look forward to meeting you next month! I haven't had any luck with that background check website either - good to know it's not just me. Hopefully that will open...

Anyone else get in for Spring 2015? I wonder when we'll find out info about registering for classes and clinicals, or if that's what we'll find out at the mtg in Nov. Do we have to do anything else...

Got my acceptance letter today! So excited! I really had to work my butt off to make this happen! Guess I will see y'all in Nov! Here are my stats for anyone curious: 29pts, missing the honors pts...

Congrats ladies! Michelle, I also had 29pts - which ones were you missing? Curious to see how mine stacks up. I didn't get any letter today, but I also am not in the DFW area - fingers crossed for...

I just spoke with the nursing department today and they said they would mail out letters either this week or beginning of next week at the latest! Fingers crossed
KristineMB replied to KristineMB's topic in Texas Nursing
Not sure on the # of applicants, but she did seem to think that no one would have the 4pts for honors classes yet, so 30 might be the highest possible # of pts for Spring 2015
KristineMB replied to KristineMB's topic in Texas Nursing
It is frustrating not knowing! The only classes you can get extra points for in Honors are BIOL 1406, PSYC 2301/2314 & humanities. No extra points for honors A&P/Micro. The highest I can get...

Hep A and Hep B need to be started right about now, since they take 5-6 months to complete the series of shots for immunization. But all the others (MMR, Tdap, Varicella, TB Tine/CXR & Flu) just...
Hi Gina! I'm also applying (hopefully :)) for Spring 2015- started a thread about that in general. I am taking the PSB on Mon. My weak area is science (90 questions, yikes!). Not sure of any good...
