1. What is the workload like in RN-BSN programs?

   LPN1118 replied to MercedesC's topic in Online Distance Learning

   With my Statistics class, we had a few articles we had to chose from for our papers so we were limited but we didn't have to put thought into it for choices. I managed to pass with a 91 without...

2. What is the workload like in RN-BSN programs?

   LPN1118 replied to MercedesC's topic in Online Distance Learning

   I'm taking the RN-BSN course with SNHU. So far, I'm on my 3rd class- 1st nursing class right now. No tests so far - mostly discussions and papers. The courses are 8 weeks long and I have an 8-12 page...

3. What day does night shift start?

   LPN1118 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I'm not sure if this is an odd question or not. If the job posting is for 8 hours on Friday 11-7, I'm assuming it starts Friday night at 11PM and goes to Saturday. There's only 1 actual hour worked on...

4. Student loans for off campus housing?

   LPN1118 replied to NYCNative21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Stay living at home. It may be a bummer now but excess loans are NOT fun! I worked full time while in school but pay for my apartment and support my kids. I would overborrow just so I had extra money...

5. I want to be a nurse but im not good at math

   LPN1118 replied to wizardwendy's topic in General Nursing

   I was a "C" student in high school and hated math. After graduation I just worked some regular jobs before going back to college a few years ago. I failed math the first time. It was an online class...

6. New Grad RN: Struggling With Finding a Job

   LPN1118 replied to nurse_bri's topic in General Nursing

   You're not too far away from CT - is it possible you can apply for your RN license here? I don't believe you have to retake the NCLEX. There are a few hospitals near the border like Greenwich,...

7. 2 full-time jobs?

   LPN1118 replied to anna225's topic in General Nursing

   Are you able to work full time while going to school? I know here in CT after you pass a nursing class or 2, you can take the state exam for CNA. IF you can get a full time CNA job somewhere, maybe...

8. 2 full-time jobs?

   LPN1118 replied to anna225's topic in General Nursing

   If you really need a second job - a Baylor position would be good to help pay debts. You work 24 hours and get paid for 32. The exact hours may vary but you get paid for more hours than you

9. Do you renew both LPN and RN licenses?

   LPN1118 replied to LPN1118's topic in General Nursing

   That a bummer. Kinda puts more pressure on me to find a new job within the next 2

10. Taking NCLEX-RN tomorrow!

    LPN1118 replied to Smith1283's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't think anyone walks away from the NLEX feeling good. I felt like I guessed at a majority of the questions. I had 77 and about 1/3 were SATA. Only 3 were pharm and by some miracle I knew the...

11. Do you renew both LPN and RN licenses?

    LPN1118 replied to LPN1118's topic in General Nursing

    Right now Im still working as an LPN and I will still need that license if Im not lucky enough to have a new job by the time December rolls around. That's the main reason I would still renew it this...

12. Job Search

    LPN1118 replied to nerdynurse7's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I'm kind of in the same boat but in CT. I look up jobs on liquidcompass.com. There's a box you can check off for new grad exact to see a list of jobs for new nurses. Our career counselor at school...

13. How long does a call back take?

    LPN1118 replied to LPN1118's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I get so nervous with interviews so the practice will really help while Im waiting. The wait for an interview is worse than the wait for NCLEX

14. Do you renew both LPN and RN licenses?

    LPN1118 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I bridged into the RN program as an LPN. I received my RN license last month and it will expire in November as well as my LPN license expiring the same time. I haven't found a RN job yet so I will...

15. Misuse of the ER

    LPN1118 replied to ShortFuse's topic in General Nursing

    I've been in the waiting room with a family member who legitimately needed to be there. A family was also there and seemed pretty relaxed and laughing and hanging out. After a while, they had a pizza...
