  6. ATI comprehensive predictor HASSLE!!!

    asoonernurse replied to KAYBDT6's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    asoonernurse replied to Angela Ma's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  8. Medical assistants and LPNs

    asoonernurse replied to Angela Ma's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    asoonernurse replied to LJ85's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I agree with akanini. I don't know how to say this gently, but you sound like you WANT to be fleeced. Car salesmen must love you. As I said in a previous posting, IF you live in California, EC and...

    asoonernurse replied to prettygirl1203's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I went to an 11 month LVN/LPN course here in California, but only because everyone in the state (or so it seems) is trying to get into the (few) RN schools we have avalable, thus creating waiting...
