Hi Everyone! I failed my first semester of nursing school. It was very difficult and disappointing to me. What makes it even worse was that I got a 77.9% with just a 0.1% remaining. I passed very well on the lab and clinical portion of the course wit...

What really makes us quite different from others is that we have already tasted the bitterness of failure. We have learned our lesson and move forward with utter determination. We can't afford to take it easy from here on. Our failure will forever re...

You really addressed an important issue that I had in my mind for a while. Definitely, I may feel very confident in my chances of passing first semester of the program this time round. However, getting used to the old material and slow pace may becom...

Thank you everyone. I appreciate your advice and suggestions. I also appreciate your encouraging words (akulahawk). Next time: - I will have the instructor go over with me the entire exam (or at least the questions I didn't know) - I will try to be...

More studying is always helpful, but I was wondering if there was something I could do differently next time.

Hi Everyone! I don't know how to feel about this but according to our schedule for next semester (my first semester of nursing!), we will have 4 hours/week of theory class, 8 hours/week of lab, and 9 hours/week of clinical. I will be taking both the ...

Hi everyone, I will be starting the nursing program at a community college that I have been accepted to, yay. Anyway, I am registering for the nursing courses (of semester one), and need help deciding a few things. There are two available options ...

Hi everyone! I am a pre-nursing student, and this semester will be my last semester:yes:, taking some remaining pre-requisites, namely micro, physio, and socio. I was told by many people, including students and professors, not to take these two scien...

Thank you so much everyone for the advice! It is so encouraging to have people who are willing to help. I appreciate your advice la_chica_suerta85! You sounded intimidating; I hope this will help me into changing.

Congratulations on your acceptance! Same here. In the beginning, I wanted to hand in my letter in person to Betty, but she was on vacation, so I just sent it through the mail. I am absolutely delighted to know of a person whom I will spend two years...

Question: I will be starting the nursing program at Normandale Community College this coming spring. After that, I will be transitioning to Metropolitan State University to complete my BSN. So I was wondering, what specific skills do you learn in RN...

I would be really happy to know other people like me! I applied to both NCC and ARCC. Normandale CC is my first option though.

Are you starting the third semester of the nursing program? If so, that would be awesome! Do you have any advice that you could share with me regarding the nursing program? (More preferably at NCC). For instance, any particular professors, course I ...

Thanks for inquiring about this issue and sharing it with us!

When I read the contract paper that I would transfer to Metro State after my NCLEX exam, I clearly understood that we could not go to any other University to finish up our Bachelors of Science in Nursing. However, after reading many negatives things ...

Congratulations! So are you going to accept Normandale's admission?

I finally received my acceptance letter from Normandale! Although I already knew that I was accepted, getting a tangible acceptance to the program makes me feel way much better.

Congratulations xlogit3k! It's supposed to be a secret. I went to Normandale in person and got the information. If you decide on going, don't say that you heard this from someone else. I would suggest that you just wait until tomorrow. Knowing that...

Thank you pmabraham This will be very helpful. I was just wondering though: won't we, as new nursing students, have enough time to learn every new thing while in nursing school. Apart from buying the necessary book supplies, do we actually need to di...

Congrats to everyone who got accepted! Has anyone heard something from Normandale Community College yet? Since they sent out the letters on July 15th, wasn't it supposed to reach us by today? There was nothing in my mail today, so tomorrow is the th...

I am also waiting for my acceptance letter from NCC. I see that your scores are similar to mine, so you will get accepted by NCC for sure (98%). So which of the three colleges is your first choice?

Congratulations ShelbyaStar! Those errors that were in your letter were by no means a mistake from your side. So don't worry.

Thanks rn2014 I said NCC, not NHCC. Sorry for the confusion. NCC didn't have day or night clinical choice in the application form.

Finally, I got accepted to NCC! Yay! I didn't get an acceptance letter though. Not yet, maybe tomorrow.

Congrats! It's so exciting to get accepted after a long, frustrating wait, isn't it?
