New LPN students to start soon !! Come share your experiences :)

Published

I am starting in September I figured it would be nice to start a thread where all of us new students could come and and share our experiences/help eachother out as we are on our way to be nurses :)

I start my program at a technical school on January 6th. The program is 11 months and it's 5 days a week...basically like going back to high school...only...harder I'm sure, lol. I am excited and terrified at the same time! I moved back in with my parents to make this dream a reality. I've been living in retail hell with seemingly no way out for the past 7 years. Anybody out there who is going to the York School of Technology LPN program? It's actually both a high-school as well as a school for adult learners and higher education in technical fields. It's literally only a mile up the road from where I live!

I don't start the program until September, but I'm getting really excited. I have two children, so this is going to be alot of work for our little family! Eventually I'd like to have a masters; luckily after your LPN year you can basically get everything else online!

Our program is only 9 months.. So I'm a little nervous about that amount of information in that time period. I'm VERY eager to learn and simply can't wait. I've worked in the hospital setting now for a little over a year and have learned a tremendous amount. I work in a rural area so there aren't any specialities that you can do, it's pretty much general nursing, but you can get a feel for every area!

I can't wait to meet new students and get myself aquainted with and inspired by everyone here!

OK so my orientation now starts on 12/10 and now the 14th. I'm going to take the HESI Entrance exam on December 16th. If I don't pass I get dropped from the program, but I'm staying positive. They do prepare you for it and I've bought a study guide that I've already started using. I'm interested in knowing how are things going with JamNurse2425.

Candygyrl, I understand your excitement! My orientation is later today and I start the 1st :) I can't wait! I'm a little nervous but more anxious but I'm sure all the happy feelings will subside after the first couple late nights of homework haha =)

I know! This is great! I thought I'd never find anyone that would be attending the same school. I am super excited. I can't believe that orientation is finally just around the corner.
