You really want to know the trick? There are several key points that I used and passed the NCLEX with the minimum questions asked the first time I took it. Focus on this (these) points: #1) READ the QUESTION. Don't get fooled by the misleading ad...
Hello,The LPN to BSN program takes about 2 years and 4 months. However, some of the pre-req's can be taken via community colleges or CLEP. Then it takes only 2 years. The cost is about $1000 per class for 19 classes. Call it a cool $20K.While it soun...
WOW. Big difference between where you are and the Southwest. CNA's, LPN's and RN's do not even need to be good, but be qualified and have a warm body...bingo, your hired... . at pretty much any facility:uhoh3:. Eveyone has multiple openings and are...
"IT CAN'T BE THIS BAD EVERYWHERE!!!!" As a general rule, the load is very taxing and seems like it is impossible; at first. I found that it takes 3 months to get a grip and a full year to adapt. It may never be nice, but it will be even easier with ...
As far as time it took. I went to a school that required no pre-req's and it took about 1 year for my LPN. I needed to get all the pre-req's done before I could move on. Starting with Algebra I, then Algebra II......The same with sciences. I had to ...
Do RN's look down on LPN's in the Hospital? Are you kidding me? Do you know what LPN stands for in a Hospital? El Pee-On ! In a Nursing home, you get a little more respect. There, it stands for "Low Paid Nurse". Just Kidding ! From someone who wor...
I'm not too worried about the influx of "nurses from overseas". Many of them are not qualified, or able to work in the U.S. In Arizona, a fairly large number of Phillipino nurses attempted to come over to work. The Az State Board of Nursing only al...
Goog Morning Vietnam!!!! Only kidding :-) (but I love the movie!). My name is Ernie. I am a 43 y/o LPN with 3 1/3 years under his belt. A father of a 3 y/o boy and a 4 y/o girl. (I started late) I worked in a SNF for my first 3 years as a nurse (a ...

When I spoke to the UOP, they have told me repeatedly that it would be a 2 year program and cost roughly $22,000. I do have all the pre-req's out of the way, so maybe it is less for me. I really don't see the need for a BSN. But it will take me abo...
I would really like to hear from someone who is actually taking classes through the UOP LPN/RN program. :welcome: I have read a few comments, but some sound like SPAM. :angryfire What I would like to know is how many papers do you write a week? Do ...
I do not know why everyone says there is no "Luck" when taking the HESI test. The first time I took it, I scored an 82% CR. I then studied (basically) the same material as I had before and was prepairing to study some new material when I had a fami...
