Hi JAZZy321,

141-B
142-A
Pharm-B
N/A-Training & work will start on May 2018.
TEas-I will take it on July.
HI Jazzy,
BTW where do you work as Nurse Aide? I ask because KCC told me that the Institution must be SNF/ICF accredited.Lastly, how was your experience taking the ATI TEAs Exam?

Hi jones.mil,
Yeah I tried to apply last sem but I didn't get accepted.. haha I used to work at Wilson Homecare. I talked to one of the counselors and I didn't realize we needed to work in a facility. But they told me to still apply because they're not sure how strict they'd be on it. The first time I took my teas I ran out of time for majority of the sections and second time around I was able to go through all the sections on time and so I scored higher. I'd say try to do a practice exam and time yourself to see where you're at.
Ho jazzy321,
You said you used to worked at Wilson?Do you have new N/A job now? In my case I will be starting my NA/Caregiver job on May,I should have 200 hours work exp before the LPN app deadline.I am hoping we will get in because I was waitlisted for ADN couple years ago and my prereq's are about to expire.
Jazzy321,
Couple years ago I took Teas V,for this cycle of application Teas 6 is the new version.Hopefully,My NA work exp will be enough eventhough its not SNF/ICF.
Jones.mil,
No I currently don't have a NA job, but I'm trying to find a new NA job. I heard the only difference from the teas 5 was that for the math section they have a calculator and the science was mostly anatomy and physiology. Yeah the ADN is really competitive, that's why I decided to take the LPN-ADN route.
Send me an email and I will ask my comp.if want to work as an NA before the LPN application.
Wow thanks! What company do you work for?

Hi guys ,
I am new to this site but i am planning to apply for LPN in fall 2018 as well. Please give me some tips in order to get into the program .
Hi Annasok35,
I know the program recently changed their requirements for the cna class to a minimum of 135 hrs if not then we need 200 hr min work experience in a facility. I'm not sure how strict they are with it yet because this is the first application period they changed it too. If you don't mind me asking, what are you stats that you're going to apply with?
