  1. Chattahoochee Tech LPN Spring 2019

    PRican posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wanted to start a new post for LPN hopefuls for Spring 2019 at Chattahoochee Tech. I was wondering if anyone has already attended and applied at the application session. I am nervous about getting...

  2. Failed out of nursing school

    PRican posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello everyone, I failed out of LPN school after one semester (last fall semester). I took this Spring semester off to deal with the failure (thank goodness I did with the COVID-19 situation). Since...

  3. Failed out of nursing school

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes I do...I hope that I can do better at critical thinking especially on those exams. That's a big struggle for me because the information they gave us was not on the exam at

  4. Failed out of nursing school

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I edited the post to say I was in LPN school. Sorry for the

  5. Failed out of nursing school

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry. I didn't mention that I was in the LPN program. I need something short term until I can get into RN school. CNA pay is not enough to support me through a BSN program. My job at the hospital...

  6. Failed out of nursing school

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for your kind words. I just can't believe that I failed by 0.1 point. I'm just afraid that I will fail again and be stuck as CNA for the rest of my life. I have to wait a whole year before I...

  7. Chattahoochee Tech LPN Spring 2019

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I re-applied for the Fall semester after I received my rejection letter, but then I ended up transferring to Southern Crescent Tech and got accepted into their LPN program this fall! Congrats to...

    PRican replied to MangoLpntoRn's topic in School, College Programs

    I did get accepted to the school awhile back, but I choose not to because it is so expensive. I got accepted into the LPN program at Southern Crescent Tech for this fall and accepted my seat. I wish...

  9. Hello, any medical assistant out there?

    PRican replied to Brown34's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I am a medical assistant. And it sounds like the school she is attending is scamming her big time. She should of went to a community or technical college. Even though they allowed her to get her...

  10. Leaving the hospital

    PRican posted a topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    I currently work at the hospital as a tech and I am unhappy. I have my reasons why. Before I got a job at the hospital, I worked in LTC for over three years and I loved it. But the work was becoming...

    Now that I have taken the HESI, I will tell you my experience. At Chamberlain, they weigh heavily on the English and the Math sections than anything else. I wouldn't stress too hard on the sciences....

    PRican replied to MangoLpntoRn's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes, there are deadlines but it depends on what term you plan on attending. Chamberlain does not have any prerequisites. Once you are accepted, you are automatically a nursing student and can take...

    PRican replied to MangoLpntoRn's topic in School, College Programs

    I haven't taken the exam yet. I was told that it is an untimed test. I went to the advisor and scheduled the exam for November 17th. As far as studying it, I was told to use the apps and look up HESI...

    I'm meeting up with an advisor today to begin the process. I plan on starting as soon as possible. I don't want to waste anymore time than I already did. I will let you guys know how it

    Thank you. I'm thinking about skipping the LPN route altogether and going for the

    I did not get in. Congratulations to those who got in. I'm excited for you

  18. Chattahoochee Tech LPN Spring 2019

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My worst subject was the English language and grammar section followed by Science. But I have to wait a year to re-take the test since I took it twice already. My advisor said that I could stand a...

  19. Chattahoochee Tech LPN Spring 2019

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sure you will get in because you got a high score on the TEAs test. I can only dream of scoring a 82 on the TEAs test. Any pointers on how I can get a higher score? I have a B in both A&P and...

  20. Chattahoochee Tech LPN Spring 2019

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for posting! I'm glad someone else is applying as well. The wait is so nerve-wrecking. If you don't mind me asking... How are your grades? What did you score on the TEAs test? I'm annoyed that...

    PRican replied to MangoLpntoRn's topic in School, College Programs

    I completely understand about the waiting. I'm also in my 30s and I already wasted so much time. I'm currently at Chattahoochee Tech and I already applied to their LPN program for Spring 2019. If I...

    I am thinking about going to this school, but I am not sure if I should. It's crazy expensive. I wonder if the Hesi A2 is easier than the

    PRican replied to PRican's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, nobody else is applying? Is anyone applying for the ADN program? I guess I will keep posting until someone responds... Well I retook the TEAs test and I got a 65....its quite disappointing.I know...

  24. Is becoming an MA still worth it ?

    PRican replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Any patient care experience is worth it. I think a CNA certification and a medical assisting certification work beautifully together, especially if you work in the hospital like me. The only thing...

  25. Is becoming an MA still worth it ?

    PRican replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    This is not true. Medical assistants do their fair share of patient care. No, they do not do patient care in the bedside setting but usually in the outpatient setting. They perform phlebotomy, EKGs,...
