1. Ugh! Failed!

   kayte03 replied to *HaNNaH*'s topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I would definately write the notes or make notecards with them. It will help you remember more. The first Fundamentals test is rough because it's hard to figure out how to study. I usually review my notes till I know it, then I go back to the book an...

3. First Day LPN Fall 2008

   kayte03 replied to WhoNeedsaShot?'s topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I'll try to give the best update I can on my program. We had 3 hurricane days so we are a little more behind than we already would be. We have done only one test in A&P. She's going kind of slow with it; it's a new book and she doesn't have it pl...

4. For those of you who started Aug. 25

   kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I feel like we've been in school longer. I am adjusted to the new schedule. We have only taken one quiz so far. This week we missed three days, one for Labor Day and two for the hurricane. My teacher sometimes moves slow in things, but she actually f...

5. First Day LPN Fall 2008

   kayte03 replied to WhoNeedsaShot?'s topic in LPN/LVN Students

   My class seems to be going a bit slower than I am reading about here. They are off to a slow start. We might have a quiz tomorrow, but other than that we have no tests scheduled so far till next Friday. Lots of lectures, a video. Organizing my notes.

7. First Day!!!

   kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I'll post about my first day a bit. Mine seems a bit less interesting than everyone else's. All we did all day, was basically read the little handbook. It said rules and had a calendar with what classes we'll be taking at what time and what day. Ever...

8. Tomorrow's the big day

   kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   Me too!!! I couldn't sleep either, so I've had about 3 hours myself. We'll be exhausted. My son starts his daycare Wednesday, so it'll be a big week for us too.

9. Tomorrow's the big day

   kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I wish I had some online courses, that would be nice. We had to read the first two chapters in A&P over the summer. Pretty much a review. I am a really slow reader, and I get tired when I read a lot. So, hopefully I can get through all the readin...

10. Tomorrow's the big day

    kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    My husband cleaned the house, so now I feel all set for school tomorrow. Nervous and excited. Less than 12 hours till I give my life away, eeps!

11. Tomorrow's the big day

    kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    That's exactly what I was saying at midnight. I've been waiting on this, but also it feels like it snuck upon me and I can't believe tomorrow's the day.

12. Reality is finally setting in!!!

    kayte03 replied to LPN_thts_M3's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I honestly don't think it'll hit me until I'm sitting in class in my uniform, hahaha. It kind of felt nice though as I read my summer reading out of our nursing fundamentals book.

13. It's almost here!!! Anyone else start on Monday?

    kayte03 replied to picurn10's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    Can't wait till Monday! Though I do wish I knew what all was going to be involved on our first day 'orientation'. I'd love to hear more stories of people's first few days.

14. First Day LPN Fall 2008

    kayte03 replied to WhoNeedsaShot?'s topic in LPN/LVN Students

    Wow. Luckily, I took a med term class before I began nursing, so almost every prefix and such we were given over the summer to learn, I know, but I'm redoing the notecards in case. I've already gone through 2 packs for the summer stuff. I need to lea...

    We had an orientation in June. Then we got our schedules a few weeks later after we turned in our fingerprint cards and backgroud check. My books seem diff from yalls. I have a fundamentals, nutrition, anatomy, and calculation of dosages.
