Thanks everyone for sharing your insight with me. Currently, I will be starting the LPN program only because in my area there aren't alot of evening programs that offer the RN program. I know it might sounds like a waste of time and money but I just can't leave my day job to go to school. If I do so......I will not have a roof over my head. So I'm planning to to the LPN program and then then do the weekend LPN-RN program which will take another year. I can go to school during the weekend but not during the day. I've heard alot of good things about MCI and only a few negative things. Can someone share with me their study habits that resulted in receiving passing grades? Did you make notes cards/flash cards or form a study group? Help Thanks, T
