inability to approach certain teachers regarding concerns, the feeling that the administration was more
concerned w/ protection these teachers rather than addressing student issues
clinical areas
Fear of reprisal for speaking one's opinion. NOT encouraging the use of PDAs. Inadequate exposure to
labs, their values and meanings.
Stress management and nursing support groups
Tests questions should be more like the NCLEX's examination. Students, especially ESL students, will be
better prepared.
Time management skills
Medsurg quarter was the worst of instruction!! I don't believe it is exceptable to tell the students to "Google
it" when we have questions. I hope that instructor is FIRED by now. (Perifoy) She is NOT an asset to
the program!!! The hospital staff at our sites HATE her too, which wasn't a suprise to any of us...
Set up of Psychiatric clinical and theory classes--not enough hours/semester
not enough skills to observe/practice during clinical days
Leadership! I hope our program can put a little bit more emphasis on giving students more space to
express their own opinion and encourage them to have interest in questionning current healthcare system
in order to improve the efficiency.

Inability to be competitive with other schools with a track record of NCLEX passing rate above 95%. Most

Pharmacology. Instruction on "What if" real life scenarios when pt. health declines rapidly.
bad teachers too stressful too quick didn't remember anything from school
There are some faculty members who are not willing to help you build your skills and strengths. They
seem to just come to work to do their job and go home.
Time managment. Adversarial approach of some instructors towards students (decreases learning,
possible pt. safety issue if student is afraid to approach instructor)
some theory classes not explained thouroughly
One of the weaknesses of the program is that it does not offer and preparation for the NCLEX. There
should be an NCLEX prep lab throughout the entire course of the program along with practice tests. I think
