  2. Georgia Perimeter College

    I am a 1st year nursing student at GPC and am having a very difficult time right now with my decision for coming to this school. The program is very unorganized. Here is a list of the problems I have found so far: 1. There are only 2 allowed check-of...
  3. NET Exam, please help

    One thing that can definitely help you is the NET study guide from ERI. The URL is: www.eriworld.com This is the very best tool to help you review for the exam. I took it quite a while ago but know that I used this book and it really assisted me with...
  4. Thank You Note to GPC's Nursing Program

    I hate to groan but I have quite an issue with anyone who says that they cannot recommend a school program for what occurred 2-4 years ago. Yes, the program had issues and yes, you can say what you like, but why continue to bash a school that you hav...
  5. GPC Fall 08?

    Hello trustingGod. First, as a recent grad of the GPC nursing program I will say that it is not necessarily changing your study habits but it is more like adjusting them to the workload. There is a lot of reading and no you must know from the start t...
  6. Students Accepted to GPC Fall 09

    Hi there everyone. I just want to wish you all the best of luck and prayers as you venture into the GPC nursing program. I am a former graduate (May 2009) of GPC and wanted to let you know that, yes, it will be quite busy for this first semester but ...
  7. GPC Help!!!

    Thank you very much for the congrats. I was admitted on my first try. I had a 3.68 GPA and I think a 3.0 or close to it for my science prereqs. I had an 86 for the NET. I wish I could speak on others specifically in my class, but I cannot. Hopefully,...
  8. GPC Help!!!

    please take the time to research more for your sister. a really great idea is to visit the nursing schools that are of interest and talk with current students there and maybe even some of the instructors. this is a great way to feel your way through ...
  9. GPC Help!!!

    How is this possible? This is possible because the students that attend/attended GPC work their behinds off to pass the classes. We are a very hard working group of students and as a new grad (this semester) from the program, I must say that they do ...
  10. Need your help - trying to change school policy

    Not true. Our school, Georgia Perimeter College, Clarkston, Georgia, ADN Program has a pass rate for classes of 75% before you are dropped (with a possible option of retaking the following semester the class is offered) and our NCLEX pass rate has be...
  11. You know you're in nursing school when....

    You know you are in nursing school when.... ...you forget how to spell simple words like "lately", "helium", "radio" and you remember how to spell "gastroduodenoscopy" without a thought... ...you set your alarm for clinical the next morning and then ...
  12. All Technical colleges in GA soon to offer ASN

    Yes, it does seem as if they are trying to silently pass this without any input from the public. This is the letter that I received from Gov. Perdue regarding the issue (not very promising): After you read this letter that I received, you will notic...
  13. All Technical colleges in GA soon to offer ASN

    this would be a great opportunity, but there is a hidden agenda to this proposal. this is in regards to a piece of legislation that mr. cagle is attempting to place on the list that correlates with the proposal "tough choices or tough times" that wou...
  14. All Technical colleges in GA soon to offer ASN

    Would you mind posting the web address of where you found this information so that I may read it? I tried to go to gacollege411.com and find it but was unable to. Thank you so much and I will make sure to comment after reading the information. I have...
  15. Thank You Note to GPC's Nursing Program

    I would just like to say, as I have in many other posts, that the GPC program is doable and it is a personal opinion as to what feelings a person has about it. Yes, in the past (2+ yr ago), the nursing program needed many huge adjustments. I even pos...
  16. GPC graduates!!!

    I know. I just figured that out after reading your post. We are also in the same network of people on facebook too. Can't wait for next semester to be up and out of the way.
  17. GPC graduates!!!

    As gapeachrn2b stated, you do have to submit a "readmit" form but don't even think about that right now because that will put you in a bad mood from the start. I am not sure what you mean by "...handle their pass rate like this..." but I know that it...
  18. GPC graduates!!!

    Congrats to all that made it through the 3rd semester and my prayers for those who unfortunately did not. I am available if anyone needs to chat. I went through the failing part last year and know the heartache and back-stepping it has caused me, but...
  19. Websites...

    This is an awesome site. Thank you so much for passing this along. I love testing out my knowledge but it gets kind of old sometimes using the same NCLEX book. Thank you again and God bless.

  21. Georgia Perimeter College

    Hi Serenity You may want to check with the school about the MATH 1101. I was able to substitute this for another math course that was at the same level or above. I ended up taking College Algebra. This is one of the prerequisites required for all m...
  22. A&P I was the most difficult to me (probably because I took it online in a shortened summer course) and the A&P I Lab was a doozie. It is a lot to memorize. I did work full time while in school up until I started the nursing program and then...
  23. a few questions on GPC

    Yes, most all of the GPC campuses offer at least some of the prerequisites that are required for the nursing program. The best way to figure it all out is to go to the GPC website and do a schedule search and see which classes are offered on which ca...
  24. a few questions on GPC

    I did work full-time while taking my prerequisites. The downfall to this was that it took me a little over 2 years to complete them. I took all of mine at GPC when I moved down here and got started with college. At the beginning of the nursing progra...
  25. a few questions on GPC

    My pre-reqs were 3.67 with a science pre-req of around 3.0. I did work through my pre-reqs but quit my full time job right before starting the nursing program. I am also in my 3rd semester at GPC now and I agree cornpooh that you should try your best...
