OCC Micro

by Anne36

I know you are not going to believe this but I really think we are being played for fools. Im been working my butt off in Microbiology but on the last test we were thrown questions that were not presented in any format in the class. I could not have even studied or attempted some of the test work because it is not available. Many members of my class have been straight A students and have talked to the Dean about our teacher. I doubt there will be 1 person in my class who will get certain questions correct.

Is this a deliberate way to sabotage us from applying to the programs because our Micro grade will be too low? (I have been told by some people who have been around OCC for a few years that this is not uncommon and you just have to take the classes again)

I dont think Im being paranoid when completely uncovered material shows up on the test to think not just the teacher but the department and others are involved with keeping us back.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post.

Gentle TOS reminder:

While it is important to be able to network, everyone should be mindful of the following:
  1. It is a small world - when we narrow it down to a state and throw in some personal info, there is actually a pretty good chance someone may recognize you if you are not careful. Your privacy is paramount to us.
  2. While allnurses.com is a wonderful place to vent (without excess personally identifiable details) it is not the place to express why ("x" specific person, place or program) is terrible. Gripe away, but since we cannot permit allegations to be made about named entities, your care in not naming them is very much appreciated.
  3. Please do not give out personal information about others. Do not name names where anyone could identify the person in any facility including your nursing programs.

o my gosh! I have Micro right now at OCC and I can't stand it. I have such a hard time grasping the material. I was really hoping to get an A or B in the class but who knows if that will happen. Im trying my hardest but it's not seeming to be good enough. If I get a C that will just kill my gpa and I'm not really looking forward to re-taking the class. Did you take the MPT yet?
