First I would like to congratulate all who got accepted to the LPN recently!!!:balloons: .

Quick question. I have been accepted to LPN program, Partime Night CLASS 4 days a week. Would it be wise to work full time during the program? Im guessing no, but some say yes. Thankyou.

Congratulations on getting accepted into your LPN program! My program was a night/weekend thing, too. We were told in an orientation program to clear our nights/weekends and keep them open due to classes and clinicals. I know people who worked FT while they went thru the program and others who worked PT. I didn't work at all. I think, if you can, I would suggest you work PT. The classes take up quite a bit of time. There is quite a bit of studying to do and lots of reading. You don't want to put yourself under any more pressure then you have to at this point. That's just my 2 cents worth, though. Other people may say it was no problem to work FT. And I'm a new grad, too, so fresh out of class myself!

Good luck to you!

Hi there!

Im currently in a part time evening LVN program. Pretty much every one in my class works full time and most of them are doing fine. In my first quarter I worked 32 hrs a week doing weekend doubles. Working in the day mon-fri didn't work for me as I needed the day time to study. I had no problems keeping up. I would suggest bulding up your hours to what your able to handle as I am now in third quarter and thinking about decreaseing my hrs down to 24. Im starting to feel burnt out and this quarter is requiring tons of study time.
