  6. What is your opinion on LPN-RN bridge?

    Hi! I plan on going the LVN-RN bridge. What I have learned is that you will have to take most of the pre reqs for the RN program, even though you are a LVN (this may vary by school). Luckily, I had...

    I took mine this morning. Felt the same way with a lot of the questions. Shut off at 85. Here in CA, I have to wait 3 weeks to get the results. I am going to be going crazy by
  18. Care Plans.

    In addition to buying a nursing care plan book, I also used this website (A LOT). It was very helpful:
  19. NCLEX Test

  20. NCLEX Test

    I did those two as well as Kaplan online and NCSBN Learning Extension online. I feel like I am overwhelmed with studying right now. I have not studied at all today. Spent time with my kids at the...

  24. I am waiting to hear back from the board of vocational nursing regarding my testing status. My school sent all the paperwork in a month ago. I am wondering how much longer it will take for them to...
  25. How long does it take in California?

    I am reading NCLEX-PN made incredibly easy and cross referencing with Saunders. I am also doing Kaplan online testing and Saunders Q&A. It is overwhelming the amount of review! Good luck to you...
