  1. Try talking to the DON at the school. She may not tell you much. It seems that she doesn't know what's going on half the time anyways. She has a board in her office that lists all of the clinical dates and times and locations. I, too, was told the...
  2. Each class is divided up into 2 clinical groups as each facility can only take up to 15 students at any one time. Level 1 clinicals were during the day. Each of the clinicals after that were both morning and evening. As for how long a notice we re...
  3. I didn't think about this until I was talking to my husband this morning: when the school almost closed...the administration told us the reason I wrote above. I am wondering if the school was put on probation by the board. They stopped accepting s...
  4. I wish the clinicals were 9-3...the morning clinicals were 7am-330pm (most of the time we got out by 230p,). The evening clinicals were 2pm-11pm but again, we got out early (usually by 10pm). I don't know where the clinicals are right now but leve...

  7. I stopped at 85 nclex-pn. What are my chances?

    The number of questions doesn't matter as far as pass rate. I got 85 and it took 5 weeks for me to get my results. Other people in my class got the max at 205 and passed while others got 95 and passed. I don't know if anyone failed yet. I think 7...
  8. I am expecting my NCLEX pass letter from the California LVN board sometime within the next week. I am wondering if anybody has actually driven up (or down) to Sacramento to pay for their license in person. I want to start working right away and I r...
  9. Driving to Sacramento, CA to get my license

  12. Any one pass nclex pn without studying it too hard?

    I clicked on all of the subjects so the test would randomly generate questions. Honestly, I only had 5 pharm questions on my exam while other people in my class had as little as 3 and as much as 10 or more. Try having the CD use all the subjects to...

  22. where do you buy your scrubs???

    I went to Big Lots yesterday and I was able to get a bunch of scrubs for only $65 after tax. Otherwise I would have had to pay easily double or triple the price at a scrubs store.
