Just wanted to throw it out there that I took the Feuer Nursing Review in NYC in the month of January and it has prepared me more than ANY review book could ever. They organized it in a way that makes you feel less overwhelmed. I would recommend it...

Hey everyone! I am planning to start an LPN program in August. After that I plan to immediately go for my ADN through Excelsior. I was just wondering how much you New York LPN's really get paid per hour? (If you don't mind me asking) I just want...

I'm considering attending this LPN program. I would be attending the evening classes, 6pm-1030 pm Mon-Thurs. It is in Hackensack, NJ but the director informed me that there are a lot (70%) of students that commute from NY that attend the program. ...

@ Supersage.. I did my research while I was in school. And like you, I thought I had it all figured out. Then I LIVED through it, which was entirely different. Not only me, but my entire graduating class has had an extremely hard time finding jobs as...

I loved reading through this. You all deserve a big pat on the back :)

OK- is it just me or are Lisa Arrends notes for Micro all over the place? Im finding it really hard to follow!

@LadyNikki I promise that you can find nursing schools that cost around the same amount that don't have a waiting list. I will help you myself if your interested! Please don't waste your time. I'm doing what you plan on doing (going straight to onl...

"Only 2 people were sent to take the NCLEX, they are hand picking ones to take the board...2 LPNs in 1 1/2 years out of hundred of students!!!" That is not true. There are plenty(at least 10 that i know of) of licensed nurses from my class(which was...

Please listen to me. Do NOT go to LPN school. It is a waste of your time. There is no jobs available for new LPNs. If you really, truly want to be a nurse then save yourself time and money and go to traditional RN school. I know that many of you a...

Do not go to LPN school, go to RN school!

Hello all, I am a new excelsior student. I just took my NC1 (Health Safety) today and passed with an A. I am wondering if anyone in the New york area has recently began the program and is interested in forming a study group. I think we could real...

Thanks for all the replies! I'm looking forward to getting to know my fellow EC classmates! Kanas- u can take the micro without the eval.Go ahead and register! I'm going to register for it too! I need to take nc3-nc7 as well as micro and maybe a&...

You can go on the NJ board of nursing site- New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs Then download & print the forms for the lic by endorsement. You have to fill them out, get it notarized and send in a check..a few weeks later, the Board of nursi...

Hey just wanted to let you know that I applied for my lic by endorsement 10 weeks ago and I just received my license number yesterday. I have been checking the site daily. Still havent received the hard copy yet, hopefully that comes soon.

Yea, and I guess we can cross that bridge when we come to it. I have all my textbooks for Micro and I'm starting the studying tonight. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated :) I plan to test by mid august. Also..have you taken any other EC...

OCC looks great, but wow-its super pricey!! I'm in New York and it would cost me over $1000 just for that class. I think I'll stick with EC's micro, although it does seem a bit intimidating.

I must admit that I never though it would be like this. I live in the NY area, and the jobs are non-existant. I have contacted every facility in the NY metro area and havent heard a peep. Like many of you, I faxed over my resume and gave a follow...

Thanks so much for posting this link, it's great ! Best of luck to all my fellow students!!

New LPN looking to bridge over to RN the fastest way possible. I had my mind set on Exclesior, but then I heard about ISU. Anyone else research these two colleges? I definitely need a non traditional school so places like Helene Fuld are out of th...

good luck!!!

i think you should go to laguna beach :)

good luck jonnhy T!

the best! highly recommended

The Saunders green is a descent review book. I wouldnt concentrate solely on that though. I prefer to just take a few practice questions from it now and then. They have great rationales

Of course its possible, it just requires consistent dedication :)
