i went to lpn midtown when it was called
central school for lpns. it was twelve (12)
months in length and intensive, but we
became crackerjack nurses. many of us
went on to further our careers, rn, teach,
etc.

I chose April 21 in Manhattan, the last day of testing for 2012-2013 LPN Program because i wanted extra time to prepare. I'm really looking forward to it!

Hey missdior, Do you have to apply to the bk campus separately with a different application compared to Manhattan n Roosevelt Island ?
no you don't ai2011... After you pass the CNET and the TABE, you are given an application packet to fill out and on it you can choose which campus you want to attend.
Thanks for the quick response. I actually start the study session tomorrow at Goldwater. Hoping it will be worth the time. Also, did you happen to have prior medical work experience, do you volunteer and/or work part time currently?
Thanks for the information~
I have heard that the study sessions at Goldwater are helpful to alot of people. I have no prior medical experience. None is required for acceptance into this program. I work full time and do this program. Yes it's a stretch, but it's sooo worth it. Im half-way done!

I must say reading this thread has been very informative. The cnetnurse website was extremely vague when it came to anything other than information about the test. I have also applied to take the PNAT and my testing date is feb. 11. I am very excited and nervous about taking the exam. I purchased two practice tests (A and C) which I have found helpful. I used one to gauge how rusty I was lol which I then studied from and refreshed my memory. I have been studying since late december and I timed myself and took the second test today which I found to be extremely helpful for prepping for the test. I scored 90% on each section but I know that its scored based on the upper 50%. I hope that it will be enough for me to pass the exam and get to the second stage. My mom is an RN and her friend who works with her who is an lpn recommended the program to me. Good luck all who are taking the test in hopes of getting in for the 2012-2013 program!
How did you get into the study session? Do you have any info on it?
@missdior
Does the brooklyn campus also recommend you to the helene fuld bridge program or is that only for the Manhattan location?
