I'm currently taking my first ever nursing course. I've already taken two tests and have another one coming up next week BUT I need to improve my grade. Please someone help!!

I don't recall there being a whole bunch of question on the chemistry portion if that eases your mind some.

My fellow Cohort 2 soon to be classmates!! I absolutely cannot wait to finally meet you guys and for all of us to start this journey together! See you all WEDNESDAY, OMG. I can't believe it's finally almost time!!

Hey everyone! I wanted to start this thread for those of us that earned acceptance into TCC's nursing program for the October 2016 start! My name is Michelle Rodriguez and I look forward to meeting each and everyone one of my future classmates.

@Britneybutler11 I'm starting the nursing program on Wednesday so I can vouch and tell you that your stats look very good. I got an 84% on my HESI but didn't have any C's. My GPA was a 3.68 at the time I got accepted back in the Spring. Also, I would...

I asked about the shoes, they HAVE to be completely white no other color at all on them not even the logo. Also, they must be completely covered so no Mary Jane type of shoes. I purchased Timberland Pro Renova's and they are the most comfortable prof...

I agree, I applied before without having all my prerequisites and didn't get in. It actually took till my 3rd time after applying twice without having all my classes and improving my HESI score but I already kept in mind that my chances wouldn't be s...

Same here! Are you in the August or October start?

FutureRN0425, you're lucky you still had access to your vaccination records. Mine were with my pediatrician and they are now locked away in storage so it would have been more of a job to get them out. I highly suggest to get a head start on this requ...

I went in to see my PCP May 31st to get mine done, I'm going back to get my 2nd PPD read this week and I will have my vaccination record ready for upload. I would suggest getting this requirement done ASAP since you never know what you may or may not...

I'm starting nursing school in October and I already work 12s as a CNA I purchased a pair of Dankso's and they are not doing it for I'm looking into buying a pair of alegria's they are supposed to be really good.

Hey! From the looks of it you should have no problems getting accepted! As long as you get a good score on the HESI. You can take my word for it as I'm starting this Fall í ½í¸‰

I'm not so sure you would like to take that test but once a year if you had to, it is that dreadfully long. No worries you will do fine as long as you know general knowledge of the basic subjects. They say the minimum you can get on it is a 45 to be ...

Yeah, I hadn't took chemistry before taking the HESI either other than in high school however many years ago and that was an area where I scored lowest in. I just completed health science chemistry to work towards my bachelor's and I wish I would hav...

I would invest in a HESI practice book in order to study, get plenty of rest, and lots of caffeine before you go. The length of it is daunting, don't spend too much time on questions you're trying to figure out. Instead answer all that you know and t...

This is when I recently applied. Before having all my classes under my belt I still needed A&P 2 and I had a lower HESI score of 77% and didn't make it in.

I too had all A's and B's, my HESI score was an 84%

It honestly depends on your other grades, your current GPA, and what you get on the HESI. I tried applying in the past while missing a class or two and did not get in. I had all my classes for the last application deadline and I'm going to be startin...

I just requested to join @silowet

@silowet, I think that's a fantastic idea. I'm sure we all have easier access to Facebook versus this site lol

Also, for those of you starting this Fall in Cohort 2, I made a blog just for us :) Here is the link: https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-student/tidewater-community-college-1048628.html Please join! I would love to meet my fellow classmates over t...

Thanks @Ssathia1! Congrats to you as well. I applied two times before this and got rejected although I didn't have all my prereqs but I had most and I retook my HESI to get a higher score this time around so I knew it was my time! What is TCC's concu...

It took until yesterday for me to receive a letter and I live in Virginia Beach. I actually called them in the morning to have a replacement sent! lol I would like to know about a thread for Cohort 2 as well :) congrats to all those who made it.

I got accepted for cohort 2 with an 84% HESI, All As and Bs and an overal GPA of 3.6 hope that helps.
