    LPN_2005/RN_10 replied to DesperateforHELP's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The NCLEX-PN wasn't all that easy either! You would have to study just the same for the PN exam. By reading how many times you took the NCLEX and what you've studied, having tutors, and went to a...

    LPN_2005/RN_10 replied to ljones128's topic in Online Distance Learning

    DSLII is a publishing company, not an actually school. They will sell their study guides for the Distance Learning exams. It would be better to skip the middle man(DSLII) and pay the school directly....
