  1. I'M ****** OFF!!!!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to ccjus123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I disagree with your viewpoint. I don't think people are looking for an easy teacher, they are looking for a good teacher. I agree that wonderful teachers who teach hard courses are rated unfairly on...

  2. Daily planner

    Cilantrophobe replied to JeanettePNP's topic in General Students

    Did you get it? Do you LOVE it or what?! I am also a big supporter of those big desk calendars, I hang it on the wall so I have constant reminders in my face. And this is exactly why I only use...

  3. Where to start help please

    Cilantrophobe replied to cake2006's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree that she should just take as many general education classes as possible in the next two years. Many ADN programs require the same general foundation of courses. It's safe to stick with CHM,...

  5. Im thinking about applying for a student loan,,,,, can anyone give me any ideas?

    Cilantrophobe replied to new_mom2005's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the above posters and want to add that the financial aid office can also tell you about any scholarships that you may qualify for. I found out today that I won a $1500 scholarship! And I...

  6. Are there clinicals the 1st semester of nursing school?

    Cilantrophobe replied to JadenRN TO BE's topic in General Students

    :ancong!: At our school (NVCC) they don't start until 5 weeks in. I think they try to give everyone a chance to get their immunizations, BLS, and anything else required to start

  7. Is anyone else addicted to nursing student vlogs on youtube??

    Cilantrophobe replied to greeniebean's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also love nursing student vlogs, and procedural videos such as sterile gloving, inserting foley catheters, and NG tubes, and anything

  8. Drop the class or stay in?

    Cilantrophobe replied to labchic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, when you think about it, if two people in the same class on the same test get two completely different grades (A vs F) you cannot blame it on the teacher or on the test. A class average of a C...

  9. NVCC-HLT 250-Textbook

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Believe it or not, they are still using the same book! I just don't understand why they would use a book that nobody likes, when there is a better option. My mom swears that he textbooks that are...

    Cilantrophobe replied to NParker's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Congratulations about getting it all straightened out. My friend had a similar problem on registration day. She went to register for HLT 250 and couldn't because there was a hold on her account for...

  11. Financial Aid Advice?

    Cilantrophobe replied to fanshawe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like you are I are in the same exact situation. We chose not to accept our loan offers from last years financial aid but this upcoming school year we have decided to take the loans for...

    Cilantrophobe replied to NParker's topic in Virginia Nursing

    But what if there isn't a waitlist availability? Can you still check wait list? If so, that is awesome. I have friends trying to get into certain classes that will love to hear that news. I have major...

  13. Computer Competency and TEAS at NVCC?

    Cilantrophobe replied to hanga27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck to you, so much has changed in a few short months. I took my Hesi and computer competency in the fall and now they have changed to the Teas and a paper test for the computer competency test....

  14. NOVA-Medical campus?

    Cilantrophobe replied to mscgirl09's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Out-of-state tuition is PAINFUL. Summer semester is my first term as a resident and I couldn't be happier. However, I have heard nothing but good stuff about NVCCs nursing program, the MEC is a...

  15. Anybody applying to NVCC Fall 09?

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    BUMP!

  16. teas test at NVCC

    Cilantrophobe replied to tcs26's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hi guys, I was just curious if all you have taken all of the pre-reqs as well as core courses for the nursing program? Just curious if everyone is doing

  17. Nova Bio 141-142,Chem,Teachers and advice

    Cilantrophobe replied to NParker's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I hate to sound like a downer but, it might be too late to get into the classes he wants. Summer is known for the competitive registration. There isn't priority registration so the classes fill up...

  18. Drop the class or stay in?

    Cilantrophobe replied to labchic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Here is my spin. If you know that it is unlikely to get into your program with a C then you should drop or audit the class and retake it for a better grade. It is my understanding that you cannot...

  19. I got a 92% on my Chem test!!!!!!!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to choc0late's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I kind of already stated my study tips but I will reiterate. First of all I have an amazing teacher who explains things so clearly I barely need to study. That alone is monumental, that God for...

    Cilantrophobe replied to NParker's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Are you trying to register for any of these classes for summer? Because if that was your objective, you asked these questions too late. All the good teachers go fast. I am talking Midnight on...

  21. Summer Registration-YAY!!!

    Cilantrophobe posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Today we had summer registration at 12 am and I registered for my final two courses before the nursing program. Medical Terminology and General Pharmacology. YAY! Now I just have to get into the...

  22. I got a 92% on my Chem test!!!!!!!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to choc0late's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Maybe it is a cultural or language barrier but telling people that Chemistry is not hard isn't very accurate, and kind of rude. Certain things come easier to some people but overall Chemistry is not...

  23. Finally Finally going back....

    Cilantrophobe replied to MomWifeNursePractioner's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No, but I just wanted to tell you that I am proud of you for sticking with it through all the bumps in the road and impressed that you are making the most of your waiting time by taking the BSN...
