    ~For the first two quarters your schedule will be: Lecture for 4 hours one day a week, Lab for 2 hours one day a week, and clinicals for 8 hours (from 645am - 245pm most of the time) 2 days a week. So you have something school related for 4 days a week. The third quarter you don't have lab, so you just have something 3 days a week. I'm sure I didn't answer all of your questions, feel free to message me again with your other questions! I was in the same position as you just last year, so I know how you feel! I just wish someone had be on here last year, when I had all my questions ~Crystal

    Sorry, it won't let me post it all together, I wrote too much!
    ~ I am in my 3rd quarter of the program which is the Psychiatric/ Community health rotation. I wouldn't say the program is really difficult, it is just information overload! And I would never study 4-5 hours daily, that's obsurd! I think my brain would explode if I did that. I, like mose people in the program, was use to getting A's and B's on previous tests. However, in nursing school testing is COMPLETELY different, but I have managed to come out with B's both quarters. I try and study for about hour or two after class, and then I do outlines of the chapters, and that's what I study from.

    b1017thompson,Sorry I haven't gotten back with you! Just with work and school starting back it got a little hectic To start off, no you are not bugging me by asking me questions! I can promise you I had more questions than you, this same time last year! The part you are in right now I think is the most stressful, the waiting! Ok now on to your questions...~Interview questions: I really think I blacked out while I was in there because even right after it was hard for me to remember the questions! But here's what I do remember:- When is a time in your life that you put someone else before yourself? Who was it and why?- How did you handle it when you didn't like a boss?- Of course, why do you want to be a nurse?- Why did you choose WCTC? - Your strengths and weaknessI don't remember any more specific questions, they had a lot of similar questions you would have with a job interview, and times when you showed compassion.
