Cool tips! They are greatly appreciated. As a current student in a LPN program, I can definitely testify to ALL of your points. Reading and writing are critical skills that one MUST master if they have any hope of doing well in a nursing program. Also, proper behavior and having some decorum can only assist you when it comes time for job considerations. Don't be fooled. Employers research the crap out of you! Keep the drunken debauchery to a bare minimum people.lol

Thanks again!

Thanks for the tip.....as I sit and ponder what to write next for a case study on chronic renal failure that is way overdue!!!! I too am a LPN going back for my RN but at a huge disadvantage because I have not worked in about 3 years my advice to all current and previous LPN students who have not taken prerequisite courses (or have) save your notes/books, they will always come in handy!!!

Hi Taalexan,

I think everyone learns differently, for me I memorise alot of the anatomy and physiology stuff, pictures also really helped me, and phnenomics (don't know if that's how you spell it)! But like having little phrases/ eg; A= Air
B = Breathing
C = Circulation
Thats a real basic example. I also have two big posters on my wall of the human body and all's its parts.

You must be in your first year learning A&P, just know that it seems overwhelming at the time, but it all becomes clear!! All the best!!

Thank you so much for your words of wisdom!!! I too am an LVN student who had to wait 17 yrs to figure out that this is what I truly want to do. Life happened in those years and I seemed to keep pushing this to the bottom of the list. Now, I have one semester under my belt and am facing a Mental Health rotation tomorrow morning. I am nervous and excited at the same time as this will be my first experience out of the perfect setting of a classroom where all we've learned is theory. I am praying I make it through!!! When I start doubting myself I usually come to this site and get the much needed motivation...so again, THANKS!!!
