LVN'06

Thank you. Good luck to you. My biggest piece of advice is prayer. Try to be calm. I know and understand how unnerving it can be. I think I was more nervous taking my RN borads than my LVN boards. Even still I must say that you have to try to be as r...

Thanks a bunch. I found out today that I passed

WooHoo I passed!!!!!!!!

I was just wondering what number your test cut off on? I just took it today cut off at 75 but I did not feel like I had been doing well to that point. Although that was the way I felt for my LVN boards as well. Anyhow thanks alot.

I sympathize with you completely. I too went straight back to shcool after graduating my LVN program. I graduated from my LCN program in May '06 and I will be graduating in 6 days from my RN program! I am exited and so glad that this year is finally ...

Starting the last semester of by LVN to RN program. I am excited 3 & 1/2 months left. How wonderful.

I must be honest with you. This may not be what you want to hear but here goes. I am a 4.0 student in Texas and the RN program has kicked my butt. I am working part time right now only becouse I can NOT survive without the paycheck. If you have any c...

Hi KiKiLVN, Glad to here that you have been to some of the places I have suggested. My advice to you about getting in at a Hospital is to try Central Texas at Scott & White Memorial Hospital a level ! trauma center. They have just built a new in ...

Well that depends on what kind of weather you like. Up North New York State (not city) has beautiful fall weather and the leaves actually change colors it is a sight you will never forget just absolutely beautiful. Although if you don't like the snow...

Wohoo I finished my first semester of bridging with a 3.75 GPA. I am so relieved. Thanks all of you for your support

Well said.

I used the NCLEX-PN to study for the HESSI test in my LVN program (it served me and prepared me well got a 1045 on exit HESSI) and am doing the same with the NCLEX-RN to study for the HESSI test in the RN program.

I have not yet taken the HESSI for the RN program but I did have to take it in the LVN program. We took a practice HESSI at the end of the fall semester then the real deal in mid spring. I think if you got a 600 and have only just started the program...

I graduated in May of 2006 from a LVN program in Texas and during our Legal Ethical course in the last semester we went over the LVN's role in central lines. It is up to the facility you work for as to weather or not an LVN may push meds or do dressi...

Congratulations first on getting into the bridging program and on getting through the first week. It is never to late to go after your dreams. I have just finished my second week of bridging it's scary.

Hello Everyone, I am a new LVN grad (May 12, 2006) went straight into LVN to RN bridging program at the same CC. We are in our second week of class and going over fluid and electrolytes and acid base balance. I have the acid base balance down no p...

Don't stress over the HESSI. My school used it as the exit exam as well. I did no special studying for the Exam I had already studied the Saudners NCLEX PN book every day doing 100 or so questions each day throught the year I was in school. I made a ...

Yeah I took my test on tuesday and kept checking the website every 5 minutes. Starting as soon as I got home from the test.LOL I passed . I have been told that Pearson Vue still posts on weekends and holidays. Good luck!

I agree. I used mine religiously and passed first time. Even though I did not feel like I passed when I left the testing center I did. My advice is to study study study and then study some more. Then when you think you know every thing as best as y...
