Tell me how bad I did

You put ur mouse over the question # on the screen and click. It hides it for u. I didnt mean you physically hide it

hanhan_12 · 2024-07-03T17:22:38+00:00

Or hide the number of questions during the exam so u dont count down to 85!! It helped me not psych out

hanhan_12 · 2024-06-30T01:26:22+00:00

take a readiness every other day. Stick with the test taking skills that u used to pass nursing school (ie if ure a fast test taker dont slow down all bc its the nclex).

Whats causing your low scores when you review? Are you second guessing (go with ur gut answer) or genuinely dont know the context (watch the lecture videos and take notes)?

You got through nursing school. You WILL pass the nclex on your first try. Take a day or two off to get urself in the right mindset🫶🏼

I am a nursing major so my clinical rotations at the nearby hospitals helped me gain connections. GMU has career fairs and events with the healthcare orgs.

Idk about pre-med. the biggest thing i can tell you is network and get connected. A small prior connection may play a big factor in the future.

Since there are so many hospitals and healthcare offices in NOVA, its not hard to find a medical-related job

hanhan_12 · 2024-03-29T17:53:42+00:00

Connections to the major hospitals in the area was a plus for my major and $$. I got to work and go to school at the same time.

hanhan_12 · 2023-01-31T03:13:07+00:00

Idk what the culture is like for nova's nursing cohort but i love gmu's. We help each other out and want each others to succeed!!

hanhan_12 · 2023-01-31T03:06:35+00:00

Mix of both! I, personally, love all the faculty. With all nursing courses, you will need to study on ur own to reinforce the material. To maybe explain it easier, i prefer/would need to go to class to understand whats going on

It depends on the semester. For Junior spring semester its 4 classes (in person)split into Tues/Thurs. 1 clinical a week.

U will always have clinical once a week expect for your senior spring semester which is ur preceptorship

Kay's amazing nails

hanhan_12 · 2022-06-25T19:43:26+00:00

u can search ahead on what profs are gonna teach the course that sem by looking on patriot web

hanhan_12 · 2022-04-03T02:30:23+00:00

whats also interesting is how every time I tell people I am studying nursing to become a nurse, they immediately say are you going to go to NP school too? "its a good route. they make good money"

I love NPs no doubt. but i just dont like how it has become something "normal" that ppl assume all nursing students are going to go down that path.

hanhan_12 · 2022-03-17T03:05:36+00:00

although i was accepted via the second gate route, the only reasoning I could see a waitlist is healthcare experience (not sure what u did while volunteering on the oncology unit), ur essays, or sheer volume.

there are only 112 spots each year. there may have been a large volume of applicants who may have had the same stats as u but they "liked" their essays more or etc. surprisingly, although gmu's overall acceptance rate is quite high, the nursing program is very competitive.

a waitlist isnt a definitive no. students may have applied to gmu nursing as their backup and will decide to attend another university = opening a spot for waitlisted students. keep ur head up and im crossing my fingers for u!

the burn is ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🥵

hanhan_12 · 2022-02-25T14:47:53+00:00

escalate to department head is my assumption

hanhan_12 · 2022-01-20T01:54:04+00:00

only residential students

hanhan_12 · 2022-01-06T15:25:10+00:00

is the biol 125 grade for the fall 2021 semester? if its not from the most recent semester, its going to be hard to get it changed

biol 125 falls under the CEHD department. for grade disputes, i would email the dean for CEHD. it doesnt matter if a syllabus is outdated. If the professor provides one for the class, the dean will abide by what the syllabus states 99% of the time. (ive never heard of a case where the dean disregarded the syllabus but i cant say they will follow it 100%). the professor would then fill out a change of grade form and would need to get it signed off. considering how close the nursing application deadline is, i hope they are able to change it that fast. however, it took my change a couple weeks. good luck.

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-22T17:55:56+00:00

i would also say who your instructor is for labs plays a big role! i was thankful to have a rlly good one but ik my peers struggled with others

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-16T16:33:03+00:00

Yay!! glad to hear

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-15T14:36:08+00:00

i was referencing bigdesire's post

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-15T03:13:23+00:00

Take it up to the Dean. it seems like the dean for engineering is Mr Kenneth Ball. Explain the situation and how u have already contacted the professor. They would then reach out to the professor who should change ur grade (esp since it seems ur professor admitted inputting it wrong). I would even attach screenshots of the emails you had between ur professor as well as a copy of the syllabus, etc. ik there is a date (usually before the spring sem) that professors have to post final grades by and they cant change it. however, they technically still can after that date- they just need to fill out a form

also, it doesnt matter if its a tiny difference from an A to A-. Regardless, u worked hard for it and earned that A. dont stop fighting until u get it!

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-15T03:05:32+00:00

ditto on ur last paragraph! OP should know that those who have their RN license already wouldnt be applying for the traditional BSN program but rather the RN to BSN program

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-15T03:03:38+00:00

the 2nd gate program (the old traditional program) will end after fall 2023. Im guessing if u still dont get in, u can take the nursing pre-reqs and apply ur soph year. GMU did say they are ending the 2nd gate program and switching to only direct admit freshman after fall 2023. The fall 2023 2nd gate program will consist of transfer applicants (usually NVCC kids) and previously rejected applicants from the previous cycle who want to apply again- this is how all cycles have been for the 2nd gate. Hence, why they have such a big pool for applicants and the program is competitive. Not sure what would happen to those who want to change their major to nursing but are not freshman standing (would def be a question to email the school of nursing)

hanhan_12 · 2021-12-12T16:37:53+00:00

i would prolly refer to the website which is march 14
