Thanks! Its been a very long year. I graduated on this pass thursday. It is definitely a relief to be done but of course its time to worry about the next step, the NCLEX. I am studing a little everyday, hoping to take my test in early December.....Lincoln tech would work out closer, the only downfall is that you wouldnt know where you will have your clinical rotation. I have been here in Phila twice which is good but I also drove to places in New Jersey and once to Atlantic City during the pediatric rotation. There is always someone in the program from Phila so car pooling is also a possibility. I cant complain though. I would definitely keep them as a back up option since there is not a waiting list. I know how the waiting game can get :)

Congrats! I definitely remember how exciting the feeling is. If I can give any word of advise, I would have to say during your time in school, whatever could happen will happen to distract you, just keep the end in mind and keep working towards it no matter what :wink2:!

Hey guys..was so happy to come across this thread as im considering going to PIT as well. But the next classes don't start till next January :-( . And any other program ive looked at is too far. So im considering starting the admissions process and waiting, but does anyone know of any other LPN programs in Philadelphia? (easily accessible to public transportation as I am not driving right now)

No not yet. Im scheduled to take it July 24th. I needed time to study my science and math. I got the book they suggested online. Don't know what the passing scores are or whats considered high. Id be interested in finding out too!

I passed! But wasnt high. In reading I was high, 90%+, math was low and science was passing, 60%. So now on to the next phase. Let me know how it goes for you.
