I will be graduating from my schools LPN program in august and transitioning over to the RN program in the spring. The thing is, they want the transitioning students to have experience as an LPN before coming into the RN program. My question is, work...

Okay, tomorrow is my first day of my psy rotation and I'm scared , I dont know what to expect. I'm expecting like drug addicts being restrained and going through withdrawal and all this other mess. Communication is another big issue i'm worried ab...

Doom's day for me is september 11 at 8 am, yea I said the same thing....9-11!!! Any suggestions on what to study these last couple of weeks? I'm going to go back over my systems and drugs and so forth but what else should I do? I've heard a lot of pe...

I've been looking through saunders q & a book, kaplan's PN book and through my saunders nclex book. Do you have any other suggestions?

I'm not sure how long the wait is for the LPN program is now. When I registered for it a year ago it was only a semester but I'm sure it's backing up now because people don't want to wait for the RN program.

I'm doing a project for one of my classes and my topic is white uniforms, why or why not? Are there any articles on the internet related to my topic? Or, what is your opinion on the uniforms? I think they should keep nurses wearing the cute scrubs i...

I'm doing a presentation for one of my classes for school on the nursing shortage. I was wondering if anyone knew of any articles, websites or journals that I could use for my presentation. The presentation is to be presented on July 19th, so any inf...

I'll soon be graduating from J. Sargeant Reynolds LPN program in august and will hopefully become licensed the first time taking boards. Working in a hospital about how much do LPN's make? Then how much do they make with shift differential etc?

To be honest, the program is unorganized but a lot of people said that goes for other nursing programs also. The only people that could get into the summer pne 188 class were those that are graduating in july because they dont have enough clinical te...

I'm not in the RN program but i'm finishing up my LPN degree this semester and hoping to transition over to the RN in spring 07. It'll take me about a year once I get in to take everything I need. After the NUR 115 class (transition course) you are a...

I'm doing my last class for the LPN program for my school. I'm taking PNE 188 which consist of PSY, OB, PEDS and PNE 145 which I think talks about how to get a job, interview process etc. Good luck everyone!

I'll be graduating J. Sargeant Reynolds LPN program in August and transitioning over to the RN program in Spring '07 and hopefully will be finished with school in March '08 (crossing my fingers that I passed boards with no problem and the first time)

I'd like to get a job in the hospital for the experience. I've heard the money for LPN's is in the nursing homes. I figured if I start in a hospital I can move up to a better job after I graduate with my RN. I was just trying to look at my options. I...

Our school wears royal blue pants, white scrub top and a royal blue jacket (if you want to wear it). It's not the prettiest thing but atleast it's comfortable.

A's are possible in nursing school. I just finished my med-surg class with an A and proud of it, because it was a 9 credit class. And every one had talked about how hard the class and teacher was but with tons of studying I managed it and still smile...

I've seen so many people talking about Kaplan and how it helped them out a lot. Is this a book or some where you have to register? I would like to check it out so any information on what I need to do will be helpful. I'm willing to do/buy anything th...

I just ordered the Kaplan-PN book today. I bought it from amazon.com for $16.50. I also ordered Saunders Q & A Review, is that any good? That book was $32.00 I believe but If it helps me pass the first time than i'm willing to buy anything....we'...

Does it cost anything to download the program from the website? I thought it was a book you could buy with a CD w/ practice questions. I looked on barnes and noble and there's also a Kaplan bok you can buy. So is that the only thing you used to study...

What do I need to do to recieve or sign up for Kaplan?

what is meant by the "suzanne plan"? So what else did you do to study for the boards? I'll have about 8 weeks from graduation until I have to take them so I should have plenty of time to study. All your help is appreciated...thanks!

I will soon be graduating from the LPN program and will be taking boards sometime in august I assume. Every time I think about the boards I start shaking in my shoes. How can I prepare for a test that determines my career? I've got a NCLEX book by sa...

I know this is kind of a personal question but about how much does a RN and a LPN make? I'm trying to see myself one of these days making lots of money and i just wanted an estimate....thanks!

Thanks for the websites, that was helpful. I just can't wait to finish school and start making some money...

I recently finished a med-surg class and bought extra books as well. I purchased the "Straight A's In medical surgical nursing" and really liked it! It provides 2 formats of learning. On every page it has 2 ways to study...the first outline is on the...

I'm an LPN student and will be finishing up in July. It's been a long road since August and will be glad when it's over. I'll soon be starting my psy/ob/peds rotation and i'm so excited! Just finished my med-surg rotation and it was tough but I made ...
