  2. If you can't pass the NCLEX after three attempts....LVN license only!

    SingDanceRunLife replied to neonurse97's topic in General Nursing

    One of my best friends graduated from UPenn and took the NCLEX twice because she failed the first time around. Not foreign, great school, just not well prepared for the exam by the

  3. More options for RN school?

  4. More options for RN school?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I meant it's my first semester so I'm in 104 and

  5. I would love to be a LPN

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Bruceh's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Definitely ask the school for a study guide. I failed my math placement the first time I took it, got the study guide from the school, studied that night til my brain was full, and passed on my second...

  6. What to expect

    SingDanceRunLife replied to CrystalinNC's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    My guess, without knowing your program is that lab and clinicals are simultaneous. Both programs I have attended this was the case because lab taught you the skills that you would use in clinical. I'm...

  7. More options for RN school?

  8. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Oh, I understand. Yeah, my program has the ENG, bio and psych requirements too, but most people have those done before entering the program so it only takes them 2 semesters. For me because of my...

  9. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Wow! So you have 14 more credits than I do! My whole program is as follows: Semester 1: PN I and II (7credits each) and medication essentials I (pharmacology pretty much, 1 credit) I for a total of 15...

  10. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I wonder how each school determines the length of the program. I think my program still stands as the shortest in this thread at 2 semesters (about 8 months total). I have 10 hours of lecture a week,...

  11. tattoos and nursing, yay or nay

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Louise Henaut's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Same with my school. In my clinical group, I have a girl who has to wear a turtleneck because she has neck

  12. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Wow, that's crazy!! I have Three class (lecture) days and 2 clinical days each week with labs 2 days a week after lecture. Tests will probably be every week between my 3 classes, but I've only been to...

  13. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I start tomorrow too! Wow...15 months! That's almost twice as long as mine, and I have a break for Easter and the whole summer

  14. How long is your program?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Wow, my program is​ really short! I have this semester, all summer off and the fall

  15. Upset with Medgar Evers!

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I would have to repeat the semester I did, and I want to be able to get to work

  16. Is finding a CNA job hard or easy?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to MOSmom's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Where I live getting hired as a CNA is super easy, but pretty much only in LTC/home care, mainly because we only have 1 hospital and it isn't all that big. In fact, in LTC the need is so great that we...

  17. Any CrossFit-ing nursing students out there?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to crossfitnurse's topic in General Students

    I was crossfitting until a major back spasm and strain that knocked me down (and no, it had nothing to do with CrossFit -- it happened on an off day). I want to find a place to go back to lifting...

  18. What was your acceptance letter like?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to AspiringNurseMW's topic in General Students

    My initial acceptance was via phone. I got a call from the associate director of admissions and she congratulated me and told me what was next in terms of what to do. I later got an email that said...

  19. Online Anatomy and Physiology with Lab

    SingDanceRunLife replied to TheMessenger13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P II 100% online, no proctored tests or anything from Broome Community College in Binghamton NY. The lecture was mainly me reading written lectures and writing out TONS of notes from the...

  20. How does it work?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to ramosyasmin16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's what it is for the RN program I was in. Unless you have to repeat a semester you'll be done in 2 years if you choose to take everything

  21. A&P 1 lecture or lab? Whats harder?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to TIffany1579's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I took A&P, it was all combined into 1 grade, but I found lecture harder than lab because with lab I could often use my own body to remember things and point them out to myself and

  23. It's official: I'm starting LPN school!!

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  24. It's official: I'm starting LPN school!!

    SingDanceRunLife posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students
