Last Thursday I was at the college for the purpose of collecting my Chemistry grade with some classmates. Apparently, there was a graduation ceremony for RN's going on that night as well, and my friends started talking to one student to ask her about the program. I didn't hear the entire conversation, but one of my cohorts told me the student had stated that ELEVEN people had failed out of NUR-181 alone during her course!
Now, there's always a chance there was some sort of misunderstanding or miscommunication, but does this sound right? For what it's worth, I would think the application process and competitiveness of getting in to the program would assure a strong student population, so it makes me nervous to hear these things. I already received some insight from someone privately, but I was wondering what the public population made of this info.
Eileen may I ask what your score was, I am hoping, after being unemployed for a year and plugging away at the classes I need, my finger and toes are crossed...(after this semester i have nothing left to take except the nursing classes :S )
Alyssa, I just registered. I'm in section 1. Jimmy, thanks for your email address. I'll be in touch. Krissy, thank you so much for sharing your advice with us!!!!
I registered for section 1 for level 1 nursing today. I am anxious and excited at the same time!!! Thanks for the updates Krissy3 and I am almost certain I should start fixing my study habits now!!!
I was wondering what RN program you are in for BCC, day or night? By the end of the summer U I will be done with all my classes except the actual nursing classes. I hope to apply for the night nursing classes. Any advice? Thanks!
@mxDP95 we are all talking about the day program. But my advice for you would be study for bio and chem for the HESI. All the other sections seemed like common sense, but thats just my opinion. I'm pretty sure the evening session takes 4 years to complete because you are doing half the credits each semester... but im not positive. I heard the evening session is easier to get into as well. I would apply to the evening session, see if you get in and also apply for the day session after if you happen to not get in.
