[color=#008000]hello guys... i'm creating this post to keep track of acceptance into the adn program at san jacinto college.

I was reading over the student handbook (oh does it scare me a little, lol) and I saw that we will take a dosage and calculations test in which we have to pass with at least a 90%. Does anyone know what all will be on the test?

:devil:Can't log onto black board? Tech support says if you are not currently taking a summer class you can't log in until Fall SEMESTER starts!! Hope this gets resolved by 5pm!!:uhoh3:

Don't worry about the dosage and calculation quizzes. They will teach you that in Foundations. You will always have to pass a math quiz with a 90 before every clinical after Foundations.

I'm not in a summer class and I was able to get into Blackboard. I registered after the office cleared me with the error messages and a few hours later, I logged into Blackboard. As far as the math tests, this is how my sis in law failed out of the program, so yeah, I'm terrified. She admits that she made little mistakes and went through them too quickly but that's what happens sometimes when you get stressed.

Thank you! Reading about dosage quiz got me a little stressed. I am getting information overload reading all this stuff.

One other question, how picky are they about athletic shoes in school. I read they wanted black or white. I have new balance that are light blue and grey, I really don't wanna have to go out and buy a new pair unless I have too. I did purchase new shoes for clinicals.

You have to wear black or white. Just where what you got for clinicals.

I went to the bookstore across the street, they have the bundle for RNSG 1215 &1413 that includes health assessment book & lab and the huge foundations book. I also got a few others there. I'm waiting to make sure I have them all, not sure. The school bookstore just has the books listed individually and then has them priced in bundles also, but you don't need both. Some of these same books are in the bundles.
