I missed passing by 6 lousy points. I have the study materials from SGNA, any recommendations? There was a lot of content that was unrelated to working in a hospital; more endoscopy center content. I feel like I need more office experience to pass...

Hi Tricia, Don't remember any of that right now, but I know it's all posted in the NVCC class of 2013 discussion on here. I am in my LAST semester at NVCC and I wish you nothing but luck. You have a road ahead of you, but you will make many friend...

Not that this will happen for u guys, but....last year our transcripts or degree progress reports reflected nursing AAS BEFORE we got our letters. This only applied to those of us already in the VCCS system. It might not be for your class though, s...

Hi again, Not sure what NVCC will take because I never tried to get in there with something other than 205. They accepted my CHM101 (4 credits) and BIO141-142 (8 credits) and let me right into 205? Maybe ask someone else at NVCC; sometimes all you...

NOVA EMT, I can assure you that the NVCC administration does not share any information with us students. We are lucky if they teach us the material :) EVERYTHING that excitedtobehear said is absolutely true. We can only guess from our interactions...

you'll be fine....just keep telling yourself that. remember that the first step to improved wellbeing is being able to recognize a problem. those that don't think they have a problem can't/won't change. my friend told me (pre-nursing school) to be p...

I feel your pain and if it was okay with you, I'd give you a big hug. Honestly, what I think is that it's almost over and you should just HANG IN THERE! I only have 2 more weeks now, but it's gotten to the point where I am sick to my stomach 24 hou...

i can relate as well! trouble is that keeping your eye on the prize is hard when a mentally ill person is holding it. it's frustrating when you know you are a good student and that you understand what you are doing. i think of it like following th...

Name: Martha Years at NVCC: Been going to NVCC off and on since 1985! Joined the FBook Group: Yes Track: Traditional Career Goal: CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist) Planning to Transfer: Yes, eventually I hope (Mason, BSN Program), or VCU ...

I found you on F B.... Good job and thank you!

THANK YOU! This has helped to settle me down. I really do need help...so type A! I am on Rate My Prof now that I can see who they are. We really should get a FB site going. Thank you again... :redbeathe

From looking at the catalog, I think we will all be taking NUR111 and NUR150 the first semester. I suppose that's how we can buy our books before we register for classes. I wish there was some way to have a ballpark idea when these classes are goin...

No problem Suzie, Nope, never got approval and never took anything higher than chem 101. Maybe it's changed? I took it last fall. Hope that helps!

I have heard that they have done that in the past at orientation. Could you find out what book they recommended for her?

You are the best and I am soooo happy you got in! Oh, traditional track...sorry :)

@Ashley...you're mail just might take longer. Think happy thoughts and try to remain positive. We're all pulling for you! @SuzyQ, I took my basic chem (CHM101) online through Southside University Community College over the summer. It was entirely onl...

Yes, I noticed there was nothing about the drug test/background check too. I am thinking of including this in my reply to say I will be at orientation. How about you? I am thinking the more that mention it the better chance we'll have on finding o...

I got in too! I hope everyone gets in!!! TEAS overall score - 90%; R 92.5, M 91.1, E 87.3 Cum. GPA - 3.47 Didn't have a 4.0 in my prereq.s - I got B's in BIO141 and BIO142, A's in all others though.

Hi Ashley! Welcome :)

I wouldn't worry. I don't think it's an indicator. We're just reading too much into anything we can grasp onto at this point. I'm going to try and knock it off and invest energy elsewhere for awhile maybe. I'm letting my daughter get a blue highl...

Thanks Princess, It probably doesn't mean anything then. Probably just something they are doing to those of us interested. When did you apply? Maybe its something they add after you submit a formal application.

I seem to remember that if you tried to sign up for NUR it would default you to GEN. I still have my GEN program too. Head scratcher isn't it. I wish I could remember if that was there before! :)

I just can't remember if it always said that or not. I wish I hadn't thrown away my old degree progress reports now.

I don't want to freak anyone out, but I took MimiNurse2B's advice and went to the SIS/HR Production system (VCCS) and under Student Center, Degree Progress, it now says Active in Program - AAS-Nursing Major. This could be a fluke and may be wrong. ...

Hi MimiNurse2B and welcome! Did you try that and if you did, what did you find?? I don't have a link either and no mail today. I am going to remain calm if at all possible. Going to go and have my hair cut to see if that helps. Like so many I fe...
