  1. CT-CCNP 2017

    Just to let you guys know, as the former employee of a CTCC, they do not have to let you know before registration starts. This is because if you get accepted and confirm your acceptance, your seat is guaranteed. No one can just swoop in out of no whe...
  2. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    I thought I didn't receive it, but they had sent it to my school email. I had it set up so that it would forward things to my regular email, but it didn't do it with this one. So I'm getting everything a month late. I just sent an email asking if I h...

    Ok nevermind. They sent it to my school email.
  4. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    Norwalk never sent me ANY email. I had to have a friend forward me hers. But I wonder if that was because I did all that last year because I was in the program but didn't pass. So I emailed them last week but they never responded.

  8. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    I had lecture on Mondays and Tuesdays from 8:30 to 10:30. Then I would have lab from 7:30 to 1:30on Thursdays and Fridays. In lab we learned different things about nursing and had validations (lab tests). We're validated on PPE, Vital signs, and Phy...
  9. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    It was really good. At least I know how much I need to study. I had underestimated it. And now I won't make the same clinical mistakes again.
  10. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    No, I can't just take it again. If you don't get a 74 in your first semester then you have to reapply. I'm at NCC.
  11. Connecticut Community Colleges - Applying for 2014

    So I was in nursing school and FAILED! I'm so mad at myself right now. So I'm reapplying. Hopefully I get in. I didn't think I was going to get in the first time...
  12. Lol I'm lucky for now. But when I go for my bachelors, I'm probably going to have to take it.
  13. I didn't have to retake chemistry. My school takes high school chemistry as long as you got a C and if you took it within 5 years.

    I'm 20 and I start September 5. I will finish May 2015 with my ADN at the age of 21, 2 months before my 22nd birthday.
  18. I feel like a loner sometimes.

    Yea a lot of people do smoke weed. It makes them feel calm. My friend said that when she's high, all she wants is peace and love.
  19. I feel like a loner sometimes.

    I feel the same way. I just turned 20 in July and I'm starting my nursing program in September. My best friend from high school and I have grown apart. She'd rather smoke weed and party while I study and go to church. I'm not one to party anyway. I'd...
  20. CCC-NP Waitlist-2013

    I don't know if this will make you feel better or not, but Norwalk has already pulled 16 people from their waiting list.
  21. Out of town clinical sites?

    I haven't gotten my clinical assignment yet, but I'm hoping it's in town because I don't have my license (I just passed my knowledge test friday). And even when I get my license, I won't have a car. So I'm relying on the bus and rides from my parents...
  22. How many work and go to nursing school?

    I work at my school as a work study. It's really nice being able to go to class, take a 30 min break, then walk on over to work. I only work 10 hours a week. I'm not married and I don't have kids so my grades haven't suffered.
  23. When do you start your fall class?

    Classes at my school start Sept 4th too. But Nursing 101 is only offered Mondays and Tuesdays. So my first day is that Monday.
