1. Savannah Tech-lpn program

   knottygirl replied to knottygirl's topic in Georgia

   They haven't talked much about what it actually means, as far as the semester switch. If I turn in my data sheet in March for entry to the lpn this fall, and it starts in August, will it still be one year, or will it now be a year and a half because...

2. Savannah Tech-lpn program

   knottygirl replied to knottygirl's topic in Georgia

   I like Mrs. Seckinger pretty well. I took her for anatomy and intro to healthcare, which i'm in now. She's pretty straight forward and her tests are no joke. Wow 3.83? That means the majority of the people had 4.0's and a some had 3.7's...That's a...

4. Louisville vs Lexington

   knottygirl replied to Astoria's topic in Kentucky

   Youre right about that, when I watched the elections this year both Fayette and Jefferson were blue, and Lexington almost always has a blue mayor. I guess what I mean concerning something to do is that I'm referencing venues, events etc. Any city c...

   knottygirl replied to thomasbrooks07's topic in Activism

   Maybe I'm off on some "other" but I think some of you guys are missing the point. It's not about quitting and working somewhere else. I *think* she's saying that because of the schedule she works due to school, the feds only pay her a flat rate of...

6. Have double degrees but need career options...Help please!

   knottygirl replied to crosstrainer's topic in Career Support

   from what i understand about nursing (I'm not a nurse, just a student), but from what i understand you'd be doing great to just get in where you fit in. A lot of nurses are having a hard time finding a job period, let alone some specialty. If I we...

   Hey, all of u guys at PVAMU nursing program, i hope you post back and let us know how you like the school. A question, if you live in houston, how long does it take you to get to classes? I've heard houston's traffic is horrible and I know that pra...

8. Louisville vs Lexington

   knottygirl replied to Astoria's topic in Kentucky

   lol graves...I would really like to move closer to home. When you live in Lexington, you either go to Louisville or Cincinnati for the "real stuff to do". I love to visit them, but I'm not sure if I want to live in them. Same thing where I am now,...

    knottygirl replied to Dizzy Lizzy 1980's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    Someone said long ago that the way to study is to stare at material for hours on end. People say "i studied 5 hours straight" like that's awesome. In agreement to another poster, you should definitely study in moments. Study for a bit, then take a ...

    knottygirl replied to anonymous1919's topic in LPN/LVN

    Well, I tell you what, I'm southeast Ga (Savannah) and the lpns get paid pretty low here. It's crazy that southern IN and ky get paid pretty highly compared to GA when GA has a higher cost of living. Oh, I'm originally from Lexington, and I remember...
