  1. Yes...I took A&P 1 and 2 during summer mini sessions and got Bs on both. It was very hard but they were the only courses I took that summer. I made flash cards and took them everywhere I went so I could go over them for a few minutes while wait...

  3. Being "Mom" and "Student"...

    I have four children, 16, 13, 9, and 20 months. I was home with my first three kids doing transcription because I absolutely refused to leave them in a daycare. Then the DIVORCE happened. I am in nursing school now, 14 months to go. My older ...
  4. Any former or current Valencia CC students?

    There are open lab hours, mostly because there are several class levels using the lab. It's closed on Sat but open Sunday. I'm really enjoying my classes and am very anxious to move on to nursing 2 in a few weeks.

  6. *sigh* Spring Break.....

    I can SO relate!!! This is the last day of my spring break and I LIVE in Florida. Do you think I got to go to the beach and loaf? No way. Maybe if I had done this 20 years earlier I could have fit the beach in. We had three projects due this com...
  7. srelocation to upstate NY

    Thank you NYERNURSE for the websites. I must say I am getting really excited. We have been looking at land to purchase and plan to build a house on it. I understand NY schools are very good, especially compared to Florida. One other question I ...
  8. Any former or current Valencia CC students?

    It's a lot of work. The lab concentrates on learning a lot of different procedures and there is a lot to remember. It's important to make time to come to the lab to practice because there isn't any practice time in class. This semester we didn't h...

    Thank you so much to everyone who responded. We have been looking at some beautiful property and the job market is good. I think Grannynurse is absolutely right about the infrastructure in Florida. So many people are moving here because of our tax...

    I've lived here in the Orlando area for 17 years, first in South Orlando then Pine Hills then Metro West, then Bay Hill, then Windermere, and now Winter Garden. Windermere was the priciest but had the lowest crime and best schools. Winter Garden is...
  12. Any former or current Valencia CC students?

    Congratulations! I am almost finished with my first semester in the VCC RN program. It is a lot of work. There is more to it than just class and lab time. I know several people who have full time jobs and are doing fine but don't study as much as...
  13. When the Board of Nursing is out to get you....

    I agree with previous posters... DOCUMENT EVERYTHING and GET A LAWYER I am so sorry this is happening to you, it's a shame.
  14. Need to vent (long)

    I agree with Lori...lopsided though it is, it actually is a compliment. The instructors must know you have done the tough stuff and they know what your grades are. You really must know your stuff and are ready to graduate. Did you ever think, on ...
