  1. Kind of bummed...My 4.0 is ruined

    Cilantrophobe replied to midnight*sky's topic in General Students

    I know what you mean! The only difference is that I am not in nursing school yet AND I know it is likely to occur. I am just thankful I have done so well for so

  2. NVCC-NUR Enrollment question

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Good point, I am sure if I remain patient I will get all that good information at the orientation. If I get accepted that is...

  3. NVCC-NUR Enrollment question

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I am definitely going to ask if that is in the planning for the Fall. That would be a nice option to

  4. NVCC-NUR Enrollment question

    Cilantrophobe replied to Cilantrophobe's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Wow, I didn't even know that was an option! Lecture online for traditional students? That is good

  5. Trade schools vs. community college

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

    Wow, you bring up a really good point. I know a lot of people are going back to school and there isn't a shortage of people trying to get into nursing school and pay the required tuition that even...

  6. If you barely pass A&P, should you continue with nursing?

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

    sorry, but that is not a very valid point considering both doctors and nurses have to jump through hoops before they are licensed professionals. tests, boards, etc. and passing those does depend on...

  7. Chemistry grade C+ not good enough

    Cilantrophobe replied to minokismom's topic in General Students

    That is interesting that they suggested dental hygiene. At my school you have to have an A in CHM to get into the Dental Hygeine program and a C to get into the nursing program. You are still...

  8. How are things with your home life while in school?

    Cilantrophobe replied to j_audrey's topic in General Students

    My mom told me that this is what saved her best friend's marriage. After years of him wanting to leave she said ok go, and guess what? He didn't leave and they have lived happily ever after since...

  9. Need prereq. Advice....asap!

    Cilantrophobe replied to NeuroLove3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would totally take both, you sound like a very smart person. This may sounds crazy but my general chemistry class is totally cake. My instructor explains things so well I almost feel like I don't...

  10. If you barely pass A&P, should you continue with nursing?

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

    I completely agree with the above post, and have some things to add. If your final grade for both classes is barely passing you don't necessarily need to reconsider nursing, but you should definitely...

  11. NOVA application portfolio's

    Cilantrophobe replied to michelf4's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Here is the information that was on the September 08 version of the Nursing Program Brochure, that is no longer available: "The application includes the original approved Checklist, the Nursing...

  12. Momentum 2+1 help please!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to popit190's topic in Virginia Nursing

    My bad, I didn't realize that you didn't go to NVCC. Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. Most of my fellow classmates are pre-nursing students so words travels fast amongst us. I have also heard that...

  13. Momentum 2+1 help please!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to popit190's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Call the school and ask. Trust me, you are wrong. They allow people who have taken general education classes to apply. Which includes everyone who has done nothing but work towards a nursing degree....

  14. No nursing shortage in Central VA

    Cilantrophobe replied to CherryBlonde's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Cherry-I am sorry that you are frustrated, nursing is no easy battle and I can't imagine having problems finding a job on top of graduating school and passing the NCLEX. I only hope the hiring freezes...

  15. How are things with your home life while in school?

    Cilantrophobe replied to j_audrey's topic in General Students

    I know this sounds really screwed up but my husband has even admitted to saying things to me just to hurt me. He knows that I don't have anything without him, we have an 18 month old and I only have...

  16. How are things with your home life while in school?

    Cilantrophobe replied to j_audrey's topic in General Students

    I don't really like to talk about my personal life on here because I love my husband very much and it makes me feel guilty, but I wanted to let you know that you are not alone. My husband is very...

  17. Who is applying FALL 09?

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

    I am applying to Fall 09, but I cannot apply until the last day of Spring semester because I am finishing up my final pre-req! I cannot wait until May 8th.

  18. No nursing shortage in Central VA

    Cilantrophobe replied to CherryBlonde's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I think your response is a little rude considering most new grads don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to "years of experience" All we have are our grades and recommendations from our nursing...

  19. Momentum 2+1 help please!!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to popit190's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Yes, you can apply to the Momentum 2+1 program, and it is your quickest method for getting your ADN, since you just switched majors. It means that if you get accepted you have Summer, Fall and next...

  20. Seems like I'll never get into Nursing School

    Cilantrophobe replied to LuckYNurSe28's topic in General Students

    I am sorry that you are so discouraged. Have you tried applying to any LPN programs or are you only applying to ADN programs? Keep your head

  21. Maybe Im jumping the gun but.....

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

    Interesting that he told you to do it right away, I see what you mean. I would ask because that would be a complete waste of money for all the students who were merely hopefuls, you know what I mean?...

  22. Daily planner

    Cilantrophobe replied to JeanettePNP's topic in General Students

    Good question! I have a 17-month time.mine planner and I LOVE it! It is spiral bound and they are sold at Borders, the new set comes out in stores in July. Plus they are really cute and have a sturdy...

  23. FAFSA- before or after acceptance?

    Cilantrophobe replied to kela1100's topic in Post Graduate Students

    The above information is correct. I have something to add. If you have never filled out the FAFSA before there is good news. It can all be done online and is fairly easy. Also, you can save...

  24. Teas Practice Test

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

    I am sorry to hear you did so poorly, have you tried signing up for that study group held at the MEC? I posted the information on another thread you were in, in the Virginia forum. My friend also has...

  25. Maybe Im jumping the gun but.....

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

    You might be jumping the gun, they may hand the paperwork out to everyone. My school has the information available through their website so the day you get accepted you can follow through with your...
