  1. Getting license w/ unpaid medical bills?

    Anne36 replied to sophiee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  3. Summer prep for Fundamentals ?

    Anne36 replied to NIUnurs2be's topic in General Students

  5. Dark age testing policy

    Anne36 replied to Certifiable's topic in General Students

    That sounds very similar to my school test policy. Our instructor usually tells us the correct answers 1 week later but there is no discussion about it (so how can we learn?) I cant remember the test...

  6. Rest of summer off from school... now what ?

    Anne36 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

  9. how much do you make a month? new LPN

    Anne36 replied to LPNweezy's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  11. Advice to the LTC nurse...

    Anne36 replied to southernbeegirl's topic in Emergency

  13. How many use a car for class/clinicals?

    Anne36 replied to citylights89's topic in General Students

    A car is an absolute must for school and clinicals where I live. We dont have public transportation in the outlying metro Detroit area. Even if we did, I cant imagine using it, it would be way too...

    Anne36 replied to FLhusker's topic in General Students

  21. Microbiology... prof has horrible rating on RMP

    Anne36 replied to breezy7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
