I really wish there were more people from this area on here because this is a wonderful community. I'm not your normal nursing student though, I have more of a tech background than most in this area.. Heck, Right now I'm installing Windows Vista into a virtual machine box on my Ubuntu Linux laptop so I can access my iphone via itunes without having to have a separate system. I've always thought that someone should promote this website around the health science building over there and get a few more people involved. I ran a small website for a group that went through in 2006 and it was fairly popular until the RN program had it shut down citing issues with liability on the instructors getting in trouble. Anyways, I wish you the best of luck, the LPN program is pretty tough and you have to stick to it and be prepared for anything. The instructors are pretty much nice but the material is fast paced and fairly detailed. I know you go through ALL of psych with rotations in 3 weeks in June (I'll be in the same class as you then, the two groups join for the summer sessions) If you need any help send me a PM, I have all this stuff linked through email to my phone so I can reply pretty quickly, or at least within the day. Take care and Good Luck, Robert M.

Hey all, I'm starting the LPN program on Jan 7th and while I don't have the money right now to buy any NCLEX review books for the LPN program, my cousin has some NCLEX-RN books that she has left over here with me. Is there any point in reviewing the material in these books, it would probably be 2-4 weeks that I would be reviewing them before I bought an LPN book. Thoughts?

Hey Rainbowlvr, I'm taking from looking at your past posts and the fact that I know the Fulton Campus LPN program starts on Jan 7th, 2009 that you are referring to Itawamba Community College. I'm also starting there but I might be in different classes than you because I'm actually going to be doing the RN->LPN Bridge Route via NEON and graduating in July 2009. Anyways, Good to see someone else from this area on these forums, you really won't find all that many, and I'm not sure why.

Hello everyone, I registered in the past but I forgot my username/password and I no longer have access to my old email account.. So I made this one.. Anyways, I'm curious about something. I went through the RN program twice, failed the first time and freaked out and withdrew the second time, now I'm out of any RN program for the next 5 years (yay for laws) so I'm looking to go into the LPN program. This is what I'm thinking of doing. I'm thinking of using my RN books and studying them over the next several months before I go back to school, which would be close to a year from now or better. Is this a good idea? I know LPN's are as advanced in their study of everything but will reading these books really hurt anything? Thanks for your input, Rob
