Hi dmy, I am only in Pharmacology right now. We dont start Fundamentals until March. I got a 96% on my first 2 exams. I dont know what I got on the third yet and we have 2 more exams tommorow.

I think the test was pretty much what was covered on the powerpoint, but it is hard to explain the type of questions. It was all multiple choice. I usually encounter a couple of questions that I am not sure about. I am picking my best answer and then moving on, trying not to second guess myself and go back to erase answers.

hey whats up future nurses and current one, and everyone else :).. Quick update on the whole LPN program.. started 2011 Jan 3, im in block one; and found the tests sorta-kinda easy(it may get harder as I go further into the course) but for right now its not so bad.. I met a whole bunch of cool people with strong personality.. Clinicals, whoo, the first day was tough and I thought "I can't do this, I can't do this," its been about a month and half now so apparently i can do it, lol.. My instructers are a bit prickly, but im sure they mean well and just want to help me; but when they started critizing me in font of a resident it sorta wears me down.. but on a happier note only 10 more months to go, so its not that bad.. at least thats what i tell myself when im feeling down.. graduate in dec. by the way, just before the break.. wish me luck.. peace :)..

How long will it take to finish the lpn program and bridge into the RN program. What classes will you have to take when you bridge to the RN program?

K i need some input on this one. I past my entrance exam for the LPN program but havent had a interview yet. I now have a financial aide appointment on March 31st but again havent had a interview. Should i be worried that im not in? I'm a bit nervous

ZoeyIsReady · Mar 28, 2011

Don't be worried you are just getting all things squared away ahead of time which is ok. I would assume you are in until you find out otherwise. It's possible that they have not started the process for interviews yet. Good luck keep us posted.

Happy Nursing :nurse:
