    charebec65 replied to heatherp75's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It does count against your time and even tells you so during the introduction. It's a good time to relax though and only takes 3 or 4 minutes of your time. Good

    charebec65 replied to carebear_21's topic in Virginia Nursing

    In my area, many LPN and RN programs require you to take the course either with your program or as a prerequisite. Mine LPN program had it integrated into the course of study but some don't. I've not...

    charebec65 replied to LaceyRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    charebec65 replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in Emergency
