1. Pre nursing school studying material

   BjSkyGGEvan posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I will be started LPN school in August and I was wondering what materials would be good to read this summer just to keep my studying skills fresh and give me a jump start in school. I don't have access to text books yet but I know there are some good...

2. A & P Class requirement

   BjSkyGGEvan replied to BjSkyGGEvan's topic in LPN-RN

   The only reason I didn't take the higher classes is I can't guarantee that I would bridge within 5 years and science classes aren't good after 5 years. It would have been horrible to take the classes twice. The good thing is that since I have taken 1...

3. A & P Class requirement

   BjSkyGGEvan replied to BjSkyGGEvan's topic in LPN-RN

   I applied to the LPN program but won't hear anything back until May I believe. Since I didn't know how long before I decide to bridge, I went ahead with the BIO 163 which I am in now. So if get accepted, all I will have are nursing classes.

   BjSkyGGEvan replied to henryswife's topic in North Carolina

   I am located in Raeford as well and hope you can give me some guidance on the payscale for LPN's in the Fayetteville/Raeford area? I am not interested in nursing homes or LTC's, but everything else. Where do you work?

7. How do you do it.....LPN to RN bridge

   BjSkyGGEvan replied to BjSkyGGEvan's topic in LPN-RN

   I definitely planned on getting everything done so all that was necessary was nursing classes. I just want to make sure I can pay my bills while going to nursing school. :-)

8. How do you do it.....LPN to RN bridge

   BjSkyGGEvan posted a topic in LPN-RN

   How do you all do it? How do you work as an LPN while pursuing your RN? Do you just work part time? I was looking at the schedule for the RN nursing class and even the ones in the afternoon started at 3:00 and the clinicals that were twice a week wer...

9. A & P Class requirement

   BjSkyGGEvan replied to BjSkyGGEvan's topic in LPN-RN

   I think it is 5 years at my college too. I hadn't planned on taking more then the 5 years to bridge, but you never know. I definitely would not want to take any science class over again, so I will definitely keep that in the back of my mind as I make...

12. A & P Class requirement

    BjSkyGGEvan replied to BjSkyGGEvan's topic in LPN-RN

    I figured it would be best to take A &P I and II, it certainly couldn't hurt. I can't imagine the school not accepting those classes in leau of the basic, but we will see.

13. A & P Class requirement

    BjSkyGGEvan posted a topic in LPN-RN

    The College (FTCC) that I am planning on getting my LPN diploma thru doesn't require A&P I and II, they only require Basic A & P. I plan on getting my LPN and as soon as I can get my RN. I am not quite sure how going from LPN to RN works in m...
