Hi there, I am in my final semester finishing December 2023. Does anyone have any tips on the ANCC exam? What books to practice with? I have the Purple book and Fitzgerald Review Books. Thanks, Dimaris

I would like to know too

Hi there :) Are you in Mental Health? I just got my acceptance letter for 2019 Spring semester

I was wondering how it went in finding a preceptor. I am also in need in finding someone to observe soon. Do you recommend any facilities? I have no idea how to go about asking. Any ideas? Would really appreciate your input.

I recently found out that the school is on probation due to the low pass rate on NCLEX. I was shocked about this news as most of the people in my class passed on the first try. I am glad to know they are using ATI. ATI will prepare students for the NCLEX. I am glad they are doing something to better prepare students. You should focus on the math I hear it's tough for some. Like I stated before I didn't study and expected to fail but did quite well. I took the test hoping to get an idea of what they were expecting so I can be prepared on the next try, fortunately for me I did great :)

I graduated from Taylor College in 2011. I was in their lpn to RN ADN Program. Just as the previous poster stated no matter where you go there will be both positive and negative remarks about a school but ultimately it is what you make of it. I graduated with Honors and it was not easy. Make the most of your time there and you will do fine. Good Luck :)

I had a great experience at TC. Entrance exam was easy, didn't even study and passed. I do believe they have a review offered to those who feel they need it.

Sorry hun if you are able to re-register for the exam you failed. Don't let this bring you down, look over your notes, NCLEX review book or try a Review Course. I used for my LPN review ATI, which is kind of pricey but everyone in my class passed with this review. Best review I ever had.

My sister n law went to Rasmussen in Florida for her RN and loved it. The downside was the cost. Very expensive but it's a good school.

I just started the program. I am thinking of dropping it before the 3 week trial. I just found out that although books are included half of the books in the program are ebooks. Meaning I will have to read them on the computer or ipad in order to study. I hate this idea, I love reading from a hard copy on paper. Any KU students taking courses or completed the program have or had the same issue? If so how did you deal? Really am thinking twice about this program.

For tuition you should contact the school, I don't know if its the same as when I was a student. Remember its a private school so expect the tuition to be higher then a community college. Dee RN

Hoping to start in February. Hope the changes are good.

Your post only proves to me that MPI has gotten better with their NCLEX pass rates. I remember the classes being small more private compared to the big schools so percentage will be much higher when you have more students. As for tuition I did not pay anything close to $24,000.00. I waited years on waiting list to get into other schools wasting potential $$$ that I could have been earning. I got my chance with MPI and I am thankful for that.

Hello, I just wanted to offer my thoughts on MPI's LPN program. I read some negative comments about the school on this website and felt the need to share my experience. I was a student in their 2nd LPN program. I will admit it was the hardest year of school in my life, the classes were intense, but keep in mind its an accelerated 1 year program. Pharmacology and Microbiology was my favorite classes. Financial aid is available and student loans. The office staff is helpful with questions or concerns if you have any. The instructors to me became life long mentors, I still communicate with several of them and its been 3 years. I passed their LPN NCLEX exam on the first try as did many of my classmates. Prospective students need to understand that its NOT easy and if you think that the school is going to hand you a diploma without earning it you are sadly mistaken. You need to be flexible with your schedule and have a solid support system if you want to succeed in the program. I am now a RN and I have to attest that the LPN program at MPI really prepared me. Study every day, don't get behind, have a positive outlook and you WILL succeed. I recommend this school to anyone who is serious about pursuing a career in nursing. If anyone wants to PM me I don't mind answering your questions. Dimaris RN

I feel exactly the same way beeker. I am now looking for work elsewhere.
