Published

I was just accepted into Galen's LPN to RN day program at the St.Pete/Tampa campus for July 2014. I wanted to start this thread to see if there are any other's out there starting at the same time. It would be nice to start connecting with classmates. :)

Okay thank you !

Don't be nervous. I'm sure you'll get accepted as long as you meet all the requirements and you do what they ask you to do. Good luck!!

Yes. I bought the NLN PAX RN study book. I didn't get to study much of it. It was everything I needed to know. They required a 96 on the test and I got a 99. There was a lot of chemistry stuff that I didn't know or understand because i haven't taken chemistry. I just guessed. You get your results right away. I'd say be sure to get adequate study time in. Don't do like me. I was really pushing it. I won't do that again.

Oh ok! I liked the McGraw-Hill test prep when I did my LPN and I see they have the NLN PAX-RN so I will try them.
