1. Massachusetts LPN Reciprocity

   kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in Career Support

   I haven't submitted anything yet, I wanted to explore my options before I started the process. I've already started submitting stuff for the Nclex here in Arkansas. So I'll go ahead and test even if I can't practice. I failed Adult 3/critical care, i...

2. Massachusetts LPN Reciprocity

   kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in Career Support

   I have completed Med Surg, Psych, OB, and Peds. I assumed that the requirements were to have completed those courses OR have withdrawn in good standing. I guess I am wrong, which is unfortunate. I was really hoping to work and gain experience while I...

3. Massachusetts LPN Reciprocity

   kitten2013 posted a topic in Career Support

   Has anyone chose to do the LPN Reciprocity route? From what I gathered, it is basically a LPN equivalency where you can sit for the NCLEX-PN if you meet the requirements. Am I right? I know I have to fill out an eligibility form in order to be approv...

   Thank you, that helps! Sorry, my mind is really scattered trying to figure out the best way to go about my situation. Basically, I currently live in Arkansas and am moving home to Vermont for a year or so and plan to come back to Arkansas for school ...

5. Temporarily Moving

   kitten2013 posted a topic in Career Support

   Hey all, I am in the process of taking the NCLEX-PN with partial RN completion. I am moving in a month due to a family medical emergency. I plan to move back here after a year or two to go back to school. I have all my requirements completed, I just ...

6. LPN equivalency

   kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in Vermont

   Vermont isn't a compact state, unfortunately. But I still face the problem of whether or not they'd accept my license for endorsement because like you said, a lot of places require you to graduate from an accredited program. I know my university here...

7. LPN equivalency

   kitten2013 posted a topic in Vermont

   Hello, I currently live in Arkansas where it is allowed for RN students to sit for the NCLEX pn. I unfortunately failed out of my program, by two points, a month before graduation. Huge blow to my self esteem. It has been nearly 3 months and I s...

8. challenging the nclex-pn

   kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in General Students

   This is true. I failed out right before starting our last course before graduation. I would've graduated in May, which is basically in a month. The point where we are allowed to sit for the LPN test was a course ago after pediatrics. I've also heard ...

9. challenging the nclex-pn

   kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in General Students

   I am pretty positive I am able to since this was suggested by the course coordinator during my exit interview from the program. I don't see becoming a LPN as a prize or backup plan, more like an opportunity to utilize what I have learned so far in sc...

    Awesome, thank you! I wasn't sure how different it would be.

11. challenging the nclex-pn

    kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in General Students

    Thank you for your input. I have heard a lot from nurses I've worked with in clinical that there is a difference between what you're taught in nursing school and actually being a nurse in the real world. I will definitely keep that in mind! Do you re...

    kitten2013 posted a topic in General Students

    After a long and hard four years of college, I have failed out of my ASN Program...a month before graduation and by two points. My only option now is to challenge the Nclex-pn and return to school through the LPN to RN program. I am done crying and e...

13. Nursing exams and drug cards

    kitten2013 posted a topic in General Students

    Hello all, I'm in my second semester of nursing and still have no idea how to study for the exams. I can't seem to find a method that works for me. Any tips or advice? What methods helped you? I've also found myself really behind on drug cards. I ha...

    kitten2013 replied to kitten2013's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I went and purchased the 4th edition today since I've heard lots of good things about it from you all. I hope it works for me like it has for others. My school doesn't require the case studies, so I'll be missing out on those and I can't ...
