    gM_2010 replied to bayebeth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    gM_2010 replied to New Horizon's topic in General Students

  4. Are your pre-req grades a predictor of your grades in nursing school?

    gM_2010 replied to jss1985's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    From an anecdotal standpoint-prereq GPAs don't always translate to high grades in nursing. The difference is that nursing courses require students critically think and apply the content. Most science...

  9. Mom, FT Night Shift With Nursing School?

    gM_2010 replied to Soon2b1Nurse's topic in General Students

    Be very careful working full time nights. Nursing classes and clinicals are held during day time hours. You also need time to study. I recall one of my former students who was working 32 hours a week...

  10. Nursing School Dismissal Issue

    gM_2010 replied to lwillis3's topic in General Students

    There are several points worthy of comment here: 1. " failing 2 courses, each by one point"- failing by one course equates to getting at least 10 questions wrong on tests, 2. You were dismissed for...

  12. Failing Clinical

    gM_2010 replied to knikkole's topic in General Students

    I think you hit the nail on the head about communicating clearly about what, when, where why, how about expectations. A professional nurse on the floor will always do an assessment on his/her assigned...

  18. Professor forgot to grade 8 assignments!

    gM_2010 replied to yajaira21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with Rose_Queen. Double check the class syllabus that should outline "the chain of command" to direct your concerns if you are not getting a response from the responsible faculty. I suspect...
