RCC Fall 2022 Nursing

Hi! I’m currently planning to apply too if my classes work out. I’m currently trying request to take bio 50b for a better grade. Haha

I'm actualizing enrolled in Bio50B right now for Summer (class began today) do you plan to get into Summer as well?

No I think it’s too late for me to enroll for Summer. I took it during Spring but got a C and I don’t think that’s good enough for the program. So I’m trying to submit a request for course repetition to the dean of nursing so I can take it with microbio during the fall. However they’re since the school is closed they won’t pick up the phone ?. I’m just worried it either won’t get approved or it’ll get approved too late and the waitlist is super long 

What are your grades or CHE-2A, PSY-9, BIO-50A, MAT-12, BIO 1 ? Because if you have all A's in those classes which I believe those are the only ones that really matter for the sciences for the application then you should be fine because I think you'll still have a 3.7 for all those classes accumulated. So that's if you keep your C in Bio-50B but promising an A for Micro(Bio-55) does that make sense? 

I’m basically a straight B student with 1 or 2 A in GE courses? my general GPA is around 3.0, that’s why I really wanted to retake bio 50B. I’m planning on applying but I don’t think my criteria points will be high enough but I’m still applying with some hope since I’ll be applying for multiple places haha

Oh wait. I’m not going for the CEP. I’m only applying for ADN

Thats okay I still want ADN student on this thread I forgot to mention I'm applying to both program as a safety net so I hope to get in to either or but I do prefer to get into the Traditional RN/ADN program. So as for your grades I am saying to only worry about your nursing prerequisites (don't worry as much what you General ED GPA). So I recommend scheduling an appointment with this link below https://esars.rccd.edu/Riverside/NURSING/eSARS.asp?WCI=Init&WCE=Settings 

and Click (Health and Science) then pick a counselor and chose to schedule with (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME). She is a nursing counselor for SON (school of nursing ) with RCC. She is very knowledgeable and she can tell you what your GPA is for the nursing prerequisites you have completed and she can compare and tell you what it can be if you retake and get an A in Bio 50B. She is literally the best and has guided me throughout my journey. I schedule with her after every semester to keep myself on the right track. Lmk if the link doesn't work. Schedule ASAP because she is always booked. However, if you can't get an appointment LMK and I'll give you her email. She also does live drop in zoom meetings on rcc.edu I believe every Wednesday at 11-12

Okay. I’ll do that. Thank you so much for the advice! 

Yeah, no worries! What teacher and school did you enroll with for Micro (BIO-55)? BTW do you still have your Bio-50B textbook? If you'd like to rent it or sell it please LMK I might be interested. 

I’m waitlisted for (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) at RCC for fall. I believe she’s the only microbio professor there. I also rented my book from the school so I unfortunately don’t have it anymore 

I'm taking (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME), he's for MVC. Too bad we aren't enrolled together, would've been cool. Also, no worries about the textbook. I recently enrolled in TRIO so I just have to submit a form to get one textbook per semester. They also provide early registration for their student incase you are interested they have good resources. You can contact (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) from RCC if you wanna check it out. Since I know it's difficult getting into nursing prerequisites that why I joined. What else will you be taking in the Fall besides Micro and A&P2 ? Will this fall be your last semester and did you already complete the NXN-84 course?

Aw man that would have been cool if we had class together. I've heard abit about TRIO from other students, so I'll definitely look into it. Fall is my last semester but I haven't taken NXN 84. For some reason whenever I look for it, it doesn't show up so I emailed the counselor about it. They haven't gotten back to me yet since they were gone for a week or so. Have you taken the class yet? if so how was it?
