  2. Very bad clinical evaluation from my instructor

    allthingsbright replied to Bala Shark's topic in General Students

    LOL!!! Ya know, I think you're right on this one! Some people just get type-cast from day one by the instructor as a "bad student" and thats it for them for the semester!

  4. LPN in Tampa Fla area

    allthingsbright replied to pjd2026's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Well, I know hospitals in Orlando hire LPN's, but just a warning about the schools here: the wait lists are long for all ADN programs in Florida, so start your pre-reqs and get your ducks in a row...

  5. Anyone take LPN program just to make it easier to become RN?

    allthingsbright replied to cindy0624's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You know what guys, I think looking back maybe I should have gotten my LPN first when I was accpeted five years ago. I got into both programs, but with pre reqs and everything (and an out-of-state...

  6. thank you to all that responded to my situation

    allthingsbright replied to cloey's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Actually, she is talking about my post on another thread... And that was my point, I have a good GPA and still have struggled to get into a program. Due to the waiting lists out there everyone has a...

  7. Thinking about LPN instead of Rn now.

    allthingsbright replied to CrystalClear75's topic in LPN to RN

    I also agree that you should try and stick it out... That said, if you have already passed your first year of an RN program you can sit for the NCLEX-PN. YOu DO NOT need to go to LPN school! You've...

  8. Do EMT's have more skills than LPN's?

    allthingsbright replied to S.N. Visit's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Actually, I think in our nursing programs EMT's could bridge until last year, so maybe there are still some programs that admit them? I thought EMT's and LPN's had almost equivalent

  9. Lpn To Rn Why Schools Make It So Hard

    allthingsbright replied to cloey's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Well, no advice... I guess most schools figure you had your chance so time to make way for other students who want a chance. I dont mean to be harsh...my thing is that there are soooooo many people on...

  10. Which path would you take to become a RN??

    allthingsbright replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Here it ends up being about 3.5 years to get an associates. With the wait time it takes even longer. We have a two yr wait in our program.

  11. Which path would you take to become a RN??

    allthingsbright replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I was almost faced w/ your situation and decided I would go the LPN to RN path. It is so hard to get into school (thankfully I was accepted into both programs at the same time). A lot of people say...

  12. How many have had to take A&P I over

    allthingsbright replied to studentnurse3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Can you still withdaw without failing? It looks better on your transcript to withdraw than to have an F. Good

  13. Moving and studying!!

    allthingsbright replied to moonischasingme1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. Disrespecting the cadavers

    allthingsbright replied to Rohan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Some people deal with death in wierd ways, and there is a dark humor that seems to come with nursing in general ("gallows humor" I think is the term). I agree with you, but I just wanted to say you...

    allthingsbright replied to NS2005NY's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I am moving OUT of Florida because of the cost of living here and the crappy pay. I know the cost of living in NY is CRAZY but at least some of the pay there is decent. Honestly, I grew up in FL and...

  18. OK I made a mistake.... but am I in danger of failing clinical now?

    allthingsbright replied to luv2shopp85's topic in General Students

    I would keep your medical status to yourself unless you need educational accomodations. Some people with ADD need help with testing, note taking, etc.

    allthingsbright replied to luv2shopp85's topic in General Students

    OHHHHHHHHHH, I misunderstood! Sorry 'bout

  20. OK I made a mistake.... but am I in danger of failing clinical now?

    allthingsbright replied to luv2shopp85's topic in General Students

    Um, I think your attitude was the BIGGEST problem. Smarting off to staff is a BIG no-no! I would suggest just taking responsibilty for what you did, and accept the consequences. In the future, when...
