Lol, fortunately I'm not privy to what other students recieved in their science classes, but i have noticed some of the less fortunate and lack of focus students (to put it nicely) You speak of lol. They will definitely be put to the test if they make it into nursing. These prof's have no sympathy/empathy they are by the book! I earned A's in both A&P classes. Im glad to hear rcc prepared you for northeastern. Its like i said its all about what you put into it. I wish you much success at northeastern.

Everyone is aware of the challenges RCC is up against that is not breaking news. i must agree with vallywillis the nursing program is a completely different entity the program is extremely intense and demanding and no way should it be compared to their elective courses. Now that there is a new president running RCC we can only hope that the same level of accountability thats there for their nursing program, will trickle down to their other courses. At Kinokoboy its like that in any program and at any school, its up to the individual what you put into it is what you will get out of it. @vallywillis thank you for the encouragement and for the info about the nursing assistant option. I have about 30 students in my class and two main profs that conduct the lecturing. Studying is def a huge priority my first exam is tomorrow, words of wisdom? @grntea you raise interesting point the staff does want us to succeed and we ( the students) must apply ourselves to ensure this happens. Thank you to everyone who replied. Im so excited to be on this journey and to know that i will be graduating in 2015 as a nurse

Hello everyone Im new to this site. I check this site regularly for information. Unfortunately i have not seen anything current relating to RCC . I was accepted into their nursing program for jan 2014 ( i'm very excited). Can anyone ( nursing students or recent grads) shed some light on what i should be expecting? I know they recommend you don't work no more than approx 20hrs a week, but that will be difficult. How do someone gain experience in the health care field as a nursing student if their current job is not related ? I know experience is gained through clinical's however is this the only way? Any and all advice is appreciated from all nurses or graduates from any colleges. Thank you. Happy New year
