I am new to this web site, I have been an LPN for 24 years. I graduated top of my class in LPN, I had a 4.0 for all my prereqs. I worked full time to part time with my pre-rec. but I returned to home heath so I could study at down times. Most of the tiime my "study time" was not quality time. There were students in my class who tryed to work full time and failed. Some have worked on weekends but for the most it effected their grades. RN school is hard, and you don't have much of a life. I graduate in 2 weeks, and for my experience working severly hurt my grades when I tryed it. I am now living on a student loan and borrowed money with a credit card for back up. My school experience that you have to absorb so much information and its takes a lot of critical thinking. I am not trying to discourage you, but if it is any way possible try not to work, or if you have to work as little as possible because you can easily flunk out and its not worth it.
