I am an LPN and am working at a VA facility. I personally am making more here than I was before; this could be due to the fact that I came here from another state. The benefits are fabulous. A lot...
Hello all! I have an appointment with a counselor at WCTC next week regarding the LPN-ADN program. Does anyone have any insight into this program? I read somewhere that there is no waiting list there....
I can attest to how hard it is to get out of that contract! I signed up with TCN/ISU back in February 2007 in CA. I moved to IL in Feb 08 and was told that my costs for clinicals were going to go up...
I'm getting a blackberry curve next week and will be using that as a PDA. I have several programs on my list to buy from skyscape.com...labs 360, Davis' Drug Guide, Tabers Dictonary, and maybe 5...

Stephanie47black, not to fear! If you want it, you can do it! School and work full time is difficult, but if you are good at time management, you can handle it. Will you still be working the job for...
Thanks for the info on skyscape....I am getting a blackberry when my current cell contract runs out, and these programs seem like they will be a great assistant
K, will do. Anyone else have problems w/the director? I have been in constant contact w/her since I got here regarding testing out, and she told me to contact her after I got my NLN results. I did,...
Yep, I did the info meeting in June. I have credit for Chemistry (HS) and I took Biology this summer. I took Intermediate and College Algebra. I had all my titres drawn yesterday, and updated my...
Finishing up the application process this week. Dr. J has said that I cannot find out about testing out of the 1 and 2 classes until after I am accepted.....argh! That's fine; I'm not worried about...
I know this thread is kinda old, but I am just so excited! I took my NLN on 12AUG08 and I was freaking out when I walked out of the room.... I was sure I did horribly. I got my results today and I...
Imagine my surprise when I was running late to work this afternoon, and stopped to check my mail....guess what I found?!?! My NLN letter was in the box...I dropped everything and ran in the house to...
Imm1019, thanks for the info. I am super excited to get started! I was worried about peds/OB, so of course I am starting my studying there. I didn't plan on going into either field, so I didn't pay...
I just ordered the same magazines and I got the same price :) Thanks for posting that! I never have time to try to find the good prices, you made it very easy for me to stay
The best advice I can offer is to read the material often, be prepared to be self-motivated, and don't hesitate to ask questions. The more you learn the better you will do. And during clinicals, if...
Thanks :) I took my NLN on 12AUG08 and am hoping to get my results during this next week. After I get the results and make sure that my score is high enough to be competitive, I'll be contacting the...

Hi! I'm an LPN and am applying for the Spring '09 ADN program at my local CC. I've been an LPN for 2.5 years. I love surgical, and I hope that is where I will be
Hi! I'm applying for Spring '09, but I am an LPN, so I am planning on testing out of NUR 171 and 172. I'll have a better idea next week when I get my NLN results if that is going to happen or not....
I love my littman. I didn't use it during school, I used the cheapy one we got with our books. My Littman was a graduation present from my husband. I can't hear anything with the cheapy ones...
Hi :) New here, and what better place to introduce myself than here!! I advocate for patient's choice. Most patients want to know what is going on with them. I have however been through just the...
