  1. If I am not mistaken, in order to bypass the internship this way, the board requires you to have worked 500 hours in the state you are endorsing from. I might be wrong, though. :)
  2. Practice test scores correlate with passing NCLEX?

    Thanks. I only did 1400-1500 practice questions. While I was taking the exam and feeling extremely incompetent (lol), I thought, "I should have done more questions. My scores were too low." So much for that ,right?
  3. Practice test scores correlate with passing NCLEX?

    I passed. I did the PVT the day I took the exam and got the good pop up. I was going to check my quick results this morning, but my friend sent me a text and said I passed. I got on the boards website and sure enough, I did! It was actually on there ...
  4. Practice test scores correlate with passing NCLEX?

    Tomorrow was the only day available for the next month. I need money, so............ I'm medium, maybe a little more than medium in my confidence. What in the world have I gotten myself into? LOL :) g
  5. Hello, I am scheduled for NCLEX-PN tomorrow. I have been taking the practice tests and for the most part, not doing very good on them. How many of you have had poor performance on the practice tests, but passed your boards? I dunno what the problem i...
  6. ISU: Does it matter where you went to LPN school?

    Update: I called ISU the other day and I told them I was interested in their LPN-BSN program, but I needed some clarification on one thing. So, then I asked if it mattered where you got your LPN from or if they were looking for LPN graduates of NLN a...
  7. Lied on...what to do?

    Why wasn't the syringe put in the sharps? I guess the best thing to do is to admit you should not have left it there. Everybody makes mistakes. Own it, learn from it, and move on. Gwen
  8. Hello, I am graduating from LPN school at Galen in Louisville in about a week and a half. I am looking into ISU's LPN-BSN program. I am wondering if they require that you graduated from an NLN accredited LPN program to enter their program. Apparentl...
  9. Galen's PAX-RN Test?

    I took it a few years ago when I was going to go to another program. I did not study at all and scored in the 89th percentile. From what I remember, it is similar to the ACT. I would think the PCAT would be very different than the PAX-RN. :) G
  10. I might be wrong, but aren't there 240mL in 8oz? Gwen
  11. Galen College

    Yes, I was referring to paying some of my tuition out-of-pocket. My tuition - financial aid = a balance. You might get lucky, though! I am not sure how they are doing the payments now. Best to ask your financial aid officer or maybe one of the stude...
  12. Galen College

    Just to let you know, you might have to pay some even though your EFC is 0. Mine was, too, but I had to pay out a nice little chunk of change. So, just be aware of that. If I were you, I would start getting my shots, etc as soon as I could after get...
  13. Withdraw - I'm really not sure?

    Oh, wow! That is a tough decision to make. A nail biter for sure! It sounds like you have had three exams thus far and have one more "regular" exam to go plus the final, correct? Ok. So, let's see. How much is each exam worth and how much is the fi...
  14. How do you study for clinical check offs?

    Practice makes perfect! We do not get kits or dvd's, so I used a baby doll since I am the only human that lives in this place. LOL We just had our first check offs last week and man, I thought I was going to freak out. LOL My anxiety level went thro...
  15. What makes more sense...?

    It is doable. There are those who commute and make it through. Personally, I would not do it as I would be concerned about traffic, the possibility of car problems, the time it would take away from studying and day to day things that have to be done...
