  2. MJC allnurses 2020

    dderrough replied to IreneRN's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't want to get my hopes either, but now that there is 20% lottery I'm assuming they wouldn't want supporting documents from every qualified applicant,. That seems a lot of unnecessary paperwork...

  6. MJC allnurses 2020

    dderrough replied to IreneRN's topic in School, College Programs

    Good luck everyone! I submitted my application yesterday. My points were pretty low (had B's and one C in my sciences. All A's in my non-sciences of course lol), so I'm counting on the lottery. I am...

    dderrough replied to IreneRN's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi! I'm planning on applying this Feb as well, and am taking the TEAS next week. I didn't do as well as I would have liked in Physio and am planning on retaking it at Stan State this spring semester....

  10. Re-taking science classes?

    dderrough replied to epowetata's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You definitely need to check the school's retake policy as many of them are different. I'm in CA too and some don't even allow retaking nursing prereqs, so that would disqualify you right off the bat....

  11. Is Nutrition course really the hardest course?

    dderrough replied to Farrah 34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I loved my Nutrition class and I finished up with a 99%. But I am also highly interested in nutrition as well. For me it wasn't a struggle at all, but it was also enjoyable for me to study since I...

  12. Feeling Discouraged

    dderrough replied to Etak's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I feel for you and can totally relate. I have 3 kids at home and go to school when they are in school. My husband works, but recently switched from a swing shift to day shift. It has been great,...

  13. How many prerequisites Did you take at once?

    dderrough replied to ChristinaVL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am actually currently struggling with how many prereqs I should take together next semester, so I feel you. For my school Chemistry is the prereq or Micro and Physio so you have to take it first. I...

  14. Nursing school at 38?

    dderrough replied to Elle7745's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is definitely not too late! I turn 39 next month and am currently in school finishing up all my prereqs. I have been in school now for 2.5 years ( I started when my youngest started kindergarten)....

  15. Drop public speaking with a "w"?

    dderrough replied to RN_OneDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is it a prereq at the school you will be applying to? At my school if you take a W in a nursing prereq then they actually subtract points from your app. So a C would be better than a

  16. Getting job with ADN in California

    dderrough replied to Josieemann's topic in California Nursing

    Yes, every hospital hires ADN nurses no problem in my area of Cali. In fact, there are more ADN nurses than BSN nurses. I have a few ADN nurses in my family and they all got hired very quickly and...

  17. Am I too old to start?

    dderrough replied to chelzw's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're definitely not too old. I'm 38 and I'll be set to apply to nursing school next spring. There quite a few of us that are a bit older that have either raised families and are just now going back...

  18. Going Back at 40 years old...

    dderrough replied to kjkolesar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is so comforting to see others on the same path! I am 36 years old and a mom of 5 and am FINALLY going back to school this fall semester. It will be interesting because my oldest is also starting...
