I would definitely recommend going in person. I sent my resume and applications to various places via the internet and I would never hear anything back, EVER. One LTC facility that I worked at in the past, hired me on the spot when I went in to fil...

I actually just went for a job interview last week. They gave me a 50 question test with about 5 calculations on it. The test was multiple choice, it was extremely easy. The calculations were very basic, no reconstitution probs or anything like th...

i'm sorry to hear that you failed, but whatever you do, do not become discouraged! i highly recommend exam cram, i found that their practice questions were most like the nclex. good luck!!!
hi everyone, I took the nclex yesterday and the computer shut off at 85. I'm hoping based on the previous posters that this is a good thing. I had a lot of SATA, about 15 (i lost count), 3 math problems, lots of prioritizing, and a bunch of pharm. ...
When I took the NET there was only math and reading comprehension. I would recommend buying a some sort of review of basic math book. The reading portion of the test was much harder IMO. We only had 30 minutes to complete it. The one good thing is...
Wow. Everything that you described sounds just like the LPN program that I was enrolled in, except that the average age was about 35 lol. I mean these women were extremely catty, always whispering and starting drama. Ugh, I hated it! We also had ...
hi scrape! i took the net in order to gain acceptance into my lpn program. there is no 'nursing stuff' on the test at all. it is just basic math (decimals, fractions, mult, div, etc) and reading comprehension. i must say the reading portion was mu...
Hi all! I'm sorry if this is posted somewhere already, but I was wondering if Excelsior has an LPN-BSN program. I just recently graduated from an LPN program and I want to start on the LPN-BSN bridge a.s.a.p. Any info would be greatly appreciated...
Hi! I've heard about ISU, but I don't think that it is accepted in my state (NY). I know that excelsior is accepted by the BON, are there any other distance learning programs that you know of?
I just recently graduated from my pn program. During the first year of the program which wass 6pm-10pm m-th I worked about 30 hours a week. Then for the second half of the program, which was 8-2:30 m-f, I only worked 12 hours a week!! In the begin...
Hi MomInTraining! I did not attend the school that you are applying to, but I was wondering if you were taking the NET exam. That was the pre-entrance exam that we had to take to get into my PN program. For the NET exam there was no 'nursing stuff' ...
They asked very simple and basic questions, such as, what characteristics do you possess that would aid you in your nursing career and why do you want to become a nurse. They also want to make sure that you will be able to commute to the various cli...
Hello, I just graduated from a BOCES LPN program and most people used a backpack while a few used one of those rolling ones (These are a little annoying, people were always tripping on them in the hallways.)
