1. RCGC Nursing - Fall 2019

   TofuSandwich replied to registerednurse1day's topic in School Programs

   Yes, you should definitely apply. You'll want to double check with an advisor but the only individual grade they look at is your highest of the sciences mentioned in the packet, and to my knowledge they don't look at if there were retakes. So in your...

2. Rcgc nursing program

   TofuSandwich replied to ldn2015's topic in School Programs

   I'm a current student in the program. No, it is not easy, you are learning a lot of material and skills in just 2 years, but it definitely isn't impossible to do well. I've managed to maintain all A's so far, and while we have lost some students, it ...

3. C in Anatomy

   TofuSandwich replied to megalleni's topic in Pre-Nursing

   No one can answer this because it depends on the school. Some won't and some will, though the ones that technically accept it may rank students in a way that it places you too low on the list to be accepted. More importantly though, I would be concer...

4. Rcgc nursing program

   TofuSandwich replied to ldn2015's topic in School Programs

   There are several schools with the initials RCGC. Which one are you looking at?

5. Having trouble in clinical

   TofuSandwich replied to lily8424's topic in General Students

   It sounds like you might be more of a hands on/application learner. Getting more practice applying the information you learn in class will probably help you retain it a bit more. Clinical can be great for that but if you're feeling rushed and stresse...

6. RCGC Nursing 2018

   TofuSandwich replied to autumn.'s topic in New Jersey

   In previous years they accepted everyone that met the requirements to apply, but during the last admission cycle they got so many applications that they had to deny some people. Unfortunately, a C in A&P will put you towards the back of the appli...

7. How to confront a disrespectful professor

   TofuSandwich replied to MamaNanii's topic in General Students

   Cancel the meeting and use that time to work on your assignments to get ahead of where you would have been otherwise. That is the first step you can take to make sure you don't get in that situation again. If I was your instructor I would wonder why ...

8. One Tattoo Situation

   TofuSandwich replied to lightscemogirl96's topic in General Students

   Either cover it with a bandage, or makeup.

9. My experience at Otero junior college

   TofuSandwich replied to Dianax7's topic in School Programs

   You can think it's ridiculous, but you're the one that failed your program because you expected to be spoon fed all the content. You will not find a passing student whose instructors manage to cover 100% of the needed content within the lectures, lab...

10. Taking AP over in nursing school

    TofuSandwich replied to nursinginterest's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I assume your actual nursing program starts in January? If I were you, I would take A&P1 in the winter before starting nursing, then A&P2 in January, and Nutrition and Micro over the summer. Getting a refresher in A&P before you start the...

11. My experience at Otero junior college

    TofuSandwich replied to Dianax7's topic in School Programs

    Relying only on exams to determine your grade is not uncommon at all. My program is 4 exams and a final that determine your semester grade, that's it. No extra credit, no participation points or graded assignments, no chance to pad your grade to make...

12. Best advice for a new nursing student?

    TofuSandwich replied to sciencenotsilence's topic in General Students

    First, know that the first month, maybe longer, will probably feel pretty terrible. You might feel unsure of yourself, wonder what you got yourself into, and start thinking that there is no way at all you can do this. Those feelings are normal, and i...

13. fall 2017 nursing program.

    TofuSandwich replied to Livelaughloveloy's topic in School Programs

    I guess I'll stop checking the bookstore website for the book list if they won't have it ready until June. Hopefully they're changing to less expensive books, especially since they raised tuition for us.

14. I think I'm getting kicked out of my program ... help

    TofuSandwich replied to mariawong's topic in General Students

    When you say you do quizlet, are you making your own sets, or using other people's? The act of making the set yourself goes a long way in helping you retain information. To give you an idea, this is how I handle each chapter in A&P: I take notes...

15. A&P 1 and 2 Flex Terms

    TofuSandwich replied to Kscray's topic in General Students

    I did accelerated (7 week) classes for both A&P1 and 2 this semester so that I could get them both done in 1 semester instead of 2. In addition to those courses I'm also taking public speaking and ethics this semester. The classes are hard for su...
