  1. Mom of a 7 year old starting last semester....feel like a bad mother

    Cinqui73 replied to brandyberry1973's topic in General Students

    I certainly understand your feelings, I'm having anxious feelings myself about my kids with my first semester in the nursing program looming. I have two children: my oldest is nearly thirteen yet...

  2. I hate nursing

    Cinqui73 replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

    I don't understand how everyone came to the conclusion that the OP would never "care" about a patient for no other reason than she is disenchanted with the nursing profession. I didn't realize that...

  3. After getting a BSN, what's next?

    Cinqui73 replied to crux's topic in General Nursing

    As for "passing" but finding out later she isnt' licensed, is it possible she's confused about the exit exam versus the NCLEX-RN? That's what I was assuming...... ~

  4. Did I win the lottery or is it a curse?

    Cinqui73 replied to jsuh's topic in General Students

    I sincerely do NOT think it is cheating - MANY college textbooks have the answers in the back of the book! Even looking up the answers to assigment questions do not guarantee passing any closed-booked...

  5. Spinning my wheels?

    Cinqui73 replied to Shalai's topic in General Students

    I'm only a student myself (starting first nursing sequence in January 2009), but wanted to offer a micron of comfort: your story sounds very common, atleast at my college. The ongoing joke among my...

  6. Bergen Community College Nursing Program Question

    Cinqui73 replied to Cinqui73's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    It wasn't so much that I was discouraged....okay, okay, a TAD nervous! However, my true desire was to understand WHY (what I perceived to be) a large percentage of people failed. As I told the other...

  7. I hate nursing

    Cinqui73 replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

    Ah. And this is what I speak of - everyone suddenly "knows" the OP inside and out based on one post. I guess I'm simply not as bold as to condemn people or make snide comments based on a single...

  8. Pre-Nursing @ Bergen Community College

    Cinqui73 replied to crissyt82's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    You know, I never got a percentile? Of course, the utterly vain part of me is dying to know what I scored, percent-wise. You'd think I'd be happy enough knowing that I got into the program, lol!...

  9. I hate nursing

    Cinqui73 replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

    Frankly, I really can't believe anyone would find anything beneficial about advising you to quit when you are only months from graduation! As MANY have already said, there are multiple avenues one can...

  10. VENT: Lazy People!!!!

    Cinqui73 replied to chnc1024's topic in General Students

    Applause to the woman with the ABSOLUTE BEST avatar I have seen yet! :chuckle Yes, these kind of people are annoying, but people in general can be irksome - learning to deal with different...

  11. "Nursing students with C's are still nurses".. ?

    Cinqui73 replied to whiteoleander5's topic in General Students

    This was something that not everyone's takes in mind - perhaps the person who seems to "skate" by or seem inordinately confortable in clinicals has plenty of hands-patient experience! I have yet to...

  12. Mnemonic for cranial nerves

    Cinqui73 replied to KR's topic in General Students

    That 12 days of Christmas mnemonic is priceless! LoL!!

  13. Anyone else wating on their results from BCC'S Nursing Entrance Exam?

    Cinqui73 replied to Cinqui73's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Cinqui73 replied to Cinqui73's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Hi, guys and gals! I've registered for the 602 curriculum myself. I applied online for my malpractice insurance and joined the NSNA - go figure, the NSNA cost more than the malpractice! I'd be happy...

  15. Anyone else wating on their results from BCC'S Nursing Entrance Exam?

    Cinqui73 replied to Cinqui73's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    This may be too late, DaddyO, but I got word from my friend - the packets arrive today! Apparently what happens is you need to fill out the background check and once that is cleared you are opened up...

    xlilchatonx - It IS through WebAdvisor, dear...sign in, click on the "Prospective Student" icon instead than the "Current Students" icon that you would normally click to register. Then, click on...

    Cinqui73 replied to Cinqui73's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    WHOO HOO! I GOT IN! I GOT IN!! :: dancing madly in circles:: Someone told me how to "find out" via the admissions feature in WebAdvisor - it tells you your admission status to any program you apply...

  19. Pre-Nursing @ Bergen Community College

    Cinqui73 replied to crissyt82's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Just took the entrance test on Nov. 17th - it was (if I remember correctly) 20 arithmetic questions (fractions, decimals, percents), 12 algebra questions (monomials, polynomials, radicals, solving...

  20. Overworked student lonely on Thanksgiving

    Cinqui73 replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm so, so sorry to hear you passed a lonely Thanksgiving - feuds with the in-laws left us somewhat ostracized from the local family this year, so I certainly can empathize. Hope you have a better...

    F.Y.I. - you'll also need WEX-101, and the CHM-100 is if it's been ten years since high school chemistry for
