I'm in the traditional ASN program at my school. Half of my classmates are on the traditional track and the other half are transitioning from LPN.
One of our careplan questions is, "What RN knowledge did you apply today?" I wasn't worried until the LPN's in the class kept getting low marks for their answers to this question.
The instructor keeps telling the LPN's that they have to start thinking like RN's now. They were told that their careplans only showed their LPN knowledge.
For those of us who aren't already LPN's, how do we even know how to answer the question? I really couldn't explain the difference between RN knowledge and LPN knowledge.
At this stage in the game, the transition students have way more education than those of us going the traditional route.
I'm very confused!
