Hopeful LPN student.

Published

Hi ya'll! A few weeks ago I submited my applicaton to the LPN program at the Jr college I'm currently attending. I decided to go for LPN because 1 year is better for me than 2. I would like to hear from students who are currently in a program. What's it like? What all did you buy to help you out? How hard was it?

Thanks!

I recently graduated from an LPN program. All I can say is pay attention and study hard. Whatever your lecture is on for the day read your chapters. The LPN program is hard but doable, you just have so much info to remember in such a short time. Like I said I recently graduated and now I'm studying for the NCLEX. Graduating from the program is a wonderful feeling but after graduation the anxiety and fear starts setting in because you have that important test that determines your whole future. I would suggest not applying for a GPN license only because in my opinion it is a waste of money and if you do take the NCLEX and don't pass all your noisy coworkers will know by looking up your name on the verify my license page. Anyway, good luck and study hard. And remember anything is obtainable if you want it bad enough.
