WEEK IN THE LIFE OF A NURSING STUDENT | west coast university, first week of nursing core

w h a t ' s - t h i s - v i d e o - a b o u t ?
Hi friends! This week was my first week of core. This term I am taking NURS110, 100, and 101L! 100 is Fundamentals and is the hardest of the 3, it is the lecture/theory portion of 101L; and both have weekly exams/assessments. I got a 100% on my first fundamentals exam, hopefully I can keep it going!! I am currently debating on opening up my instagram for you guys to follow me, I am kind of back and forth about it so if you maybe are interested in following me on instagram, let me know in the comments!!

Thank you for all the insight on your first Core term. I’ll be starting Core in August so you are helping ease my nerves! I know time management is tough and making videos is hard in Nursing School. But I am appreciative of the hard work you are putting into these videos. You are lighting the path of those who follow before you! Regardless of the ups and downs. I can’t wait for the Patho style video! Thank you!!!!

[@cristinamiriti3264]

Luv luv your content as always!! Keep up the nice work girl!! Good luck😘❤

[@tistaxoxo]

At the end of the day it’s up to you but I did look for your IG earlier today to follow. Thank you for your videos!

[@krystenecarreon]

Hi, I’m glad I found your channel! I just started core, but I’m at the OC campus :)

[@Andrea_Barry]

Oh how exciting!!! Goodluck girly!! 🫶🏽

[@JellicleNat]

This week I did wound care as well and it was stressful but I got 48/48! Good luck this term!

[@Andrea_Barry]

Ahhh good job!! 🫶🏽

[@alicurtis1455]

I love that you share your experience with WCU but…. Can we get your skin care routine? I am intrigued by it.. 😅

[@adolatbeshimova1379]

Love the videos!

[@celine.bollos_]

Where did you get your desk? I’m trying to find a new one😭

[@Kelly-qs1dy]

Hi love! I have watched your video all day today! It was so nice to see some of the preview of the courses that i will be taking in a week! I will be starting pathophysiology in a few days, can I ask if you could share your lecture notes? Pleasepleaseplease😢

[@andreahernandez1418]

We would love your ig to be opened lol BUT maybe start with a separate ig account and try to log in lol

[@ayeeefernandez]

Hi! Your content has been prepping me since I’ll be starting at WCU in June! Would you be able to make a tech necessity video? Like what technology and apps help you in nursing school? Thanks in advance! ❤

[@Andrea_Barry]

Yes! I’ll add that to my content ideas list! Thanks so much for watching 🫶🏽

[@Allthingsnette]

Hello glad to have stumbled across your page as I’m in the ABSN program as well. (15 months) Can you share what your master to do list looks like or consist of

[@pinky2270]

Are you going to have any links with items you use?

[@CaitlinEmmaPetcu]

I am starting in October, I was just wondering how many times a week you have class? I live about an hour away so I am just trying to gauge my commute/if i should move closer.

[@Andrea_Barry]

Hi honestly you’ll be in school like 2/3 days out of the week. And even if you live closer to school, WCU has a 50 mile radius for clinical sites so if you might get a site like 35 miles away from the schoo and you’ll have to commute at some point in the program inevitably. Hope this helps !! Goodluck!!

[@nataliebarrios4993]

Hi would u say it’s worth just going straight into WCU idk if I wanna go cc route bc cheap or just faster route with wcu. I’m really stuck

[@Andrea_Barry]

Hi going straight into west coast is definitely faster if finishing faster is the appeal! However if you are coming straight from highschool I highly highlyyy recommend doing at least one semester SCIENCE course at a cc or maybe even 2 sciences courses at the same time. So you get that exposure to hard classes and develop a study method that works for you. Because wcu is really fast paced especially once you get to nursing core!! Keep in mind that a class at a cc is about 16 weeks but at west coast it is only 10 weeks! And at west coast it’s pretty much a unit per week, meaning 3-6 or (even more) chapters a week!

[@limo20606]

Hi I’m starting at west coast LA in the fall!! How many terms did you do there before core?

[@Andrea_Barry]

Hi I just did 1 term before core!

[@limo20606]

@@Andrea_Barry they told me I had to do 2 even though I only need the 3 required classes! They let you do them all together?
