Hello :) THIS IS A BRAND NEW THREAD for TCC's up and coming classes in January and March, 2013.
I am starting this thread to help me get through the waiting game. I just finished my HESI yesterday, and turned in my application today. Now the LONG wait begins. I would like to get into the Jan or Mar cohorts. Does anyone know when they actually begin?
I was surprised to have chemistry on the HESI--because it isn't required for the program. My scores were good though...all within the 92-100 range. It took me FOREVER to do the test. 223 minutes!
How about everyone else? What did you think of the HESI?
You buy new books for every class but I'm in physical assessment and we still use our 108 book as well. Your cohort has the same teacher. Two different teachers teach the material... They split up the content but everyone is in the same class. You have different clinical instructors. All nurses doesn't allow names on the forums.
Thanks Virgolove!! I saw that they had 2 different teachers listed for the class, but the times were the same and it looked like the same class room was listed for both but different teachers. I wonder why they make it look like there were two different classes per 8 wks... What does your schedule look like now (and for 108)?
To look at the classes for Nursing or anything, at TCC you can log in to the SIS on TCC and search the classes you can see the hours, teacher, labs, days a week the class meets, ext. You can also look in the spring catalog if they sent you one in the mail.
Also just FYI Chmicha, I am still trying to talk to my mom, but apparently she's having phone issues. I've got my brother going to tell her tomorrow that I need to talk to her, so hopefully I can let you know something definite about switching with you then. But sometimes my brother can be a bit flaky...
its ok honey the reason i'm in rush i just wanna get my plan tickets so hopfully it all will work out and we can switch . i really need to get a vacation and see my family bfr starting the program
Also, the semester ends in May for regular students, do we follow the same schedule? As in, we will get a little time off after the Spring semester ends and the Summer semester begins?
Oh, big question here, do we HAVE to wear the Dove brand uniform pants from Barnes and Noble or can we get any white pants from a uniform shop?
Is it hard to get into tcc nursing program? I'm retaking A&P because the first time I made an F in it ( personal issues). I should end up with either an A or a high B this time. The rest of my classes I made As in and I will be taking A&P 2 next semester. Any suggestions
