Heck to the Yes! In all of my science classes, I have learned so much information that just keeps getting bigger and bigger each semester. I have come to LOVE genetics because of my Biology class with Mrs. Gentles. I will point out to people if they are recessive or dominant and explain why. I also use more specific terms for the body and such when talking to people because of Anatomy and Physiology I.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I do enjoy being at NPCC because the student-teacher ratio is great and people are very friendly including the staff. The ratio is fantastic especially for me because I tend to ask many questions and I don't feel embarrassed to. The staff will help you with any problems you are having. The counselors are great too for helping with choosing classes and degrees and transfer credits.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Oh Definitely. NPCC is mis-judged by a long shot. Yes, it is close to home but they definitely work you just like any other college. Most of the classes are transferable so you will be able to transfer to a 4-year University with ease. Some of the classes are a challenge too which means it is not a blow-off college which i think most people think about a 2-year college. The Nursing Program is one of the BEST in the state and if you go to St. Joe's College that is located in Hot Springs, they will say that most of their staff is from NPCC.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
You might need some study skills which you can get from Success Seminar and i suggest Mrs. Murphy. She will help you relax and get comfortable with the college staff, surroundings, and other students. Also, to keep all your papers neat because the teachers will surprise you by asking for the whole semesters work. If you are taking a language class, the neat thing about NPCC is that you are allowed to take lets say Spanish II and pass it and get credit for passing Spanish I and II. That is a GREAT feature and helpful so you can graduate as fast as you can.
