I already know IL doesn't accept it..but as of right now, they do allow you to endorse in after 2 years of RN experience elsewhere. In the VA, you can have a state license from any state(I live pretty close to IN anyway). Lunah-your advice is what I...

Yeah, this would be an option that I would consider only AFTER an offer is made(had interview 2 days ago). Just thinking out my options. It's either this or Indiana State as I cannot sit in the classroom another year(or more) and work. As far as t...
I have a question. I live in IL and have a possible job opportunity to work for the VA as an LPN. Do you think it would be worth it to finish my RN via Excelsior even though IL wouldn't recognize the license (assuming that I loved working at the VA...

No, they give you a list of places in your area and then you call and request clinical hours. I've heard from several people in the area that's it's actually pretty area and the list of hospitals are pretty decent.
I applied to ISU and planned on applying for admission for the lpn-bsn by the Nov 1st deadline. I am so disappointed to learn that you can only take 2 nursing courses at a time!! I spoke to 2 different people at the university who confirmed this. ...
Don't listen to anyone about not doing an LPN program...yeah, we all know hospitals aren't hiring LPN's..but there are PLENTY of opportunities and it is NOT a waste of money. I just graduated and took my NCLEX-PN and within a WEEK, had 3 job offers(...
This is very untrue. I wish people who actually KNOW what they are talking about before posting...I had a teacher that used to write NCLEX questions. SATA ARE higher level questions..when you are doing well, you get more of them. Math calculations...

Ummm...LPN's ARE nurses so the whole "More LPN's than NURSES" is an odd statement. Lpn's aren't going anywhere. LTC facilities are giving preference to LPN's because they are cheaper than RN's. I know of many facilities that are cutting RN's overti...
Were the questions very difficult at the end? Like a lot of "select all that apply"? I was told that if you have reached these difficult questions, it means you have answered a lot correct.
I just finished my program and I would just say try to stay as focused as possible. Just ignore whatever else is going on and focus on the prize(like someone else mentioned). It wouldn't hurt to start some NCLEX study questions as soon as possible!...
I just finished my program as well and am trying to get into NCLEX study mode! I am planning on just going to Borders and trying to use a different book each night and study section by section. I too am very worried about pharm. When are you plann...
