Im so thankful I decided to go with my gut and take Professor Cuff Plante. She is tough but will prepare you IMMENSLEY for nursing. I learned so much from her and she really does care about her students. Every nursing class is difficult but she knew her stuff and made sure we all were comfortable with the material

Comment:

Med-Surg is a very difficult class no mater who you take. MCP prepares you for the real world tremendously. She was definitely tough, but I came out with so much knowledge from her. I failed the first test but was able to pull myself together but it's a lot of work. She is the sweetest most caring professor I've had at Molloy. I love her!

Comment:

Professor Cuff-Plante is the best! Yes, her tests are hard, but they teach you to think like a real nurse and prepare you so much for your future career. Watch her panopto's before class and add notes to the sheets from her coursepak. Do not bother buying the online textbook, though; never used it except for extracredit. She seriously is the best!

Comment:

Cuffplant is a sweet person but her class is extremely hard. I didnt think she was that great of a teacher and her tests are EXTREMELY HARD. I studied for a week and knew the information so well yet still failed her tests because theyre just that complicated and hard. Do not take her if you want an easy A

Comment:

Not sure why Prof. Shahs 209 class was full, while MCPs classes are not even half full. Both make you work extremely hard for a good grade, with similar, extreme, time requirements for their courses. However, Shah is almost entirely self-taught, while MCP for 299 focuses on what is truly important for your career. She prepares you phenomenally.

DONT LET THE OTHER REVIEWS SCARE YOU! Cuff is actually an AMAZING teacher. Her class is a lot of work. She is very organized and very fair! She wants to see her students succeed- many people think shes tricky but she isnt out to get anyone. Tests are hard, her class forces you to crictical think. I swear by the course pak AND DO THE PANAPTOS!

Comment:

Professor Cuff-Plante is one of the best, if not the best, nursing professor at Molloy. She is so smart and will teach you SO much. Her class is really worth the tuition. I have learned so much from her, and I think my overall critical thinking skills have improved so much and prepared me for the clinical world.

Comment:

She's great but her teaching style is different, which is why many students didn't like her. If you put in the work and watch the panoptos before class, and do the case studies before class, you will be good!

Comment:

She will make you work HARD but definitely worth it. Learned so much from this woman she is amazing. But you definitely need to be fully committed- a lot of outside classroom work. DO the case studies before class. Go see her during office hours- such a sweet lady and willing to help. You will be SO prepared for the rest of the program!!!!

Knows her stuff! She's very detailed. Don't slack off you will surely fall behind. More than half the class failed the first test including me but don't worry you can recover! She's tough but I came out of her class very knowledgable and confident. I would definitely take her again no question! Gives you opportunity to for extra credit

Comment:

This was an online class. yes she is super knowledgable and you will learn so much from her. But the way she taught this class was unfair. This is your first medsurg class and to build a foundation through online lectures, not reviewing a bit in class and then jump into case studies with groups was not helpful. Pretty much get ready to teach urself

Comment:

Cuff-Plante will push you & her class will weed out the weak students. You'll need to put in hours outside the classroom to listen to her panoptos on top of studying for hours everyday. Her class isn't impossible, but you WILL and NEED to be able to critically think. If you aren't ready to study 24/7 and be fully committed to her class, drop her

Comment:

My absolute favorite professor. Going to learn so much in this class! Let me give you some hints on how to get an A as like I did. Do all the recordings take little notes in your COURSE PAK (BIBLE). DO THE CASE STUDIES ON YOUR OWN. She will go over them in class. Figure out in the case studies how everything works, understand it. YOU GOT THIS!

Don't let professor Cuff-Plante's reputation stop you from taking her class. Its a lot of work but you'll learn so much from her. Her class is difficult but if you put in the work you can pass. She really cares about her students and offers extra credit to boost your grade. She'll go above and beyond for you as long as you put the effort in.

Comment:

Professor Cuff-Plante is a great Professor. She truly does care about her students. With that being said, her tests are super challenging. I studied weeks and put in so much time to fail her first exam and just marginally pass her second one. She does, however, offer extra credit which is slightly helpful. Be prepared to study to butt off!

you will learn a lot from her but you will most likely fail. She knows her tests are hard, she said so herself many times in class. If you can't afford to fail, switch teachers or withdraw. She's very nice but she will go out of her way to make her tests difficult. I have never been so stressed out in my life.

Comment:

Not the worst teacher in the world and her course pack is amazing but dont take her if u cant afford to fail b/c u just might. Shes really nice and good at explaining but she intentionally makes her tests hard and i know this b/c she says so herself. She doesnt play around. honestly u could fail whether u take her class seriously or not so goodluck

Comment:

Prof CuffPlante is an example of a devoted health care practitioner who truly wants to extend her knowledge in the field to others. Watch the Panapto on time weekly while following & taking notes in the course pak. STUDY THE CASE STUDIES! This is the application students struggle with. You will be lucky to have learned from her, she is wonderful.

Comment:

Professor Cuff-Plante is absolutely amazing. Very understanding and caring. She has taught me more than I could've imagined in just one semester! Her class is a lot of work and you need to put the time into it. Panoptos are a big deal but she helps connect it everything in lecture. Pay attention to the case studies!
