Here's the things I've done so far to study: Rewrote and rewrote notes, read over, and over my notes so many times, made flash cards-review them. met several times with another student to study. We are having a test on our first unit, has 3 chapters, but we already went over unit 2, that test is on Monday, and we already started unit 3, I think the new information I'm learning is staying with me, and I don't have time to process the first unit. They are moving so fast, I know they have alot to teach in 1 year, but I'm really studying.

I started in July 1, 2009. We are in anatomy right now, its hard and I can cry, nothing is sinking in my head. Major test tomorrow. I need to learn how to study the right way, any suggestions?

I actually made it into the program started in July, If I can make it through anatomy, I'll be happy. any suggestions?

Actually i just started lpn program july 1, 2009. I have memmler's the human body in health and disease 11th edition by lippincott. We have our first test coming up next week on 4 chapters, hopefully i can remember it all. I've been out of school for awhile. Any study suggestions

I'm an older adult who just started LPN program in July, I'm actually 44 years old trying to relearn about studying. Our first classes are: Anatomy and Social science I ( opt out of) because I'm a CNA, which gives more time with Anatomy, We are doing (Memmler's The Human Body in Health and Disease edition 11). How is the best way to study and pass this class, our first test is coming up in 2 weeks. Any pointers or suggestions would really help.

I'm an older adult going back to school, I just got accepted into the nursing program. They gave us summer work to do and I'm a little stuck and maybe someone can help me. We need to do drug cards and I thought maybe someone can help me with one and I can go with that. They gave us a list of 80 drugs and here's 1 of them. I would really like your help.

Thanks for the reply, I am a CNA and I work for long term. I did talk to the instructor on Thursday, she said I scored high on my interview testing and they really liked me, they told me that they had to make some decisions on choices. But anyways last year they told us they chose 32 students for the class and I don't know how many alternates they picked. but they picked 13 alternates last year for the class. and I'm alternate # 6 for the 2009 class.

Hello, I just wanted to give an update, I'm just not having any luck getting in to an LPN program, received my letter in April 2009, didn't get in but again I was chosen as an alternate, talked to the instructor, alternate number 6, taking only 27, I was chosen as an alternate for the other program in Buckhannon, WV. Was alternate number 6 there also in January 2009. I guess my chances are slim getting into this program. Has anyone ever been chosen as an alternate for this program at UTC in Clarksburg?

1 more thing when they interview do they interview by lowest score to the highest, by highest to lowest, or do they interview ABC order? Someone also told they take people on assitant first, is this true?

To no prevail I didn't get into a LPN nursing program being an alternate, so I applied At UTC in Clarksburg, took the TEAS test and now I'm granted an interview, but from what I hear they interview so many people, and they still only take the top 30-40 people, why do they interview so many if they already have their minds made up? I have no idea about my scores and where I stand. Has anyone ever attended this program before and what kind of question they do ask. I'm actually an older adult trying to go back to school. I just want to be prepare, even though my chances are slim.

They had 5 people decline about starting the LPN program before it started, I'm the next one up and school started today January 5, 2009, haven't received phone call yet, 4 days left to go, they have until January 9, 2009 to drop, I sure hope someone drops that first week, so I can go, how many drop their first week?

ANOTHER UPDATE: Today is January 2, 2009, still no news about the LPN program, I'm the next one up, school starts January 5-9, 2009, I'm just waiting on the call to tell me to come to school, 5 people already declined before school started, I'm number 6, now I'm really getting nervous, and wondering if anyone will quit their 1st week, which I hope. what are the odds of anyone quitting their 1st week?

UPDATE: I received a little good news yesterday December 8. They already used 5 alternates and I'm number 6, they have another meeting before Christmas, and school hasn't even started yet, which begins January 5, people still can drop out that week, and I still can go, waiting pon the call, I'm next. I hope.
