  1. Greater Lowell Tech

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    A rolling admission isn't always a good thing. Sure you're guaranteed acceptance to the program once you've completed an application, but they do have a waiting list. And since everyone gets in their...

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    hey everyone!! I haven't gotten any calls nor have I heard anything yet either. I did call on Thursday and left him a voice mail just asking of they've started picking people up from the waiting...

  4. Greater Lowell Tech

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    The only experience I have is my clinical rotation from taking the class. I guess they want people who have significant experience and want to advance their career. Hopefully someone will decide not...

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    hey all! I heard back AND...I'm on the waiting list It's kind of frustrating because technically I'm in, BUT that's assuming some other person either fails out of the program by December or can't...

    OKAYYY!!! So I went on the interview today and it was long and very informative!!! They just basically tells you everything about the program. From how mandatory attendance is to how costly the...

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    How did you ladies do on your test?? I'm glad you thought the math was pretty easy. It was the other way around for me! I hate math!! LOL You should get your results back in exactly three weeks. I...

  8. Greater Lowell Tech

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    the NET is on paper. They have an answer sheet and a test booklet; it's very much like a high school test if you remember taking tests in high school then that's really what it's like. And they...

  9. Greater Lowell Tech

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    The math section is mostly addition, subtraction, fractions and percentages, multiplication and division. There wasn't any geometry or any other kind of math. Just basic algebra. The reading section...

  10. NET essay

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    The math section had 30 questions and I think they give like 30 minutes to finish that section. At first I thought ok great! that's do-able...but the math problems were pretty hard. It took me the...

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    The test is held at Greater Lowell. Once you get there they have you sign in and then you follow the signs which are literally posted everywhere. They say "LPN Test" and they lead you directly to the...

  12. information on greater lowell lpn program

    prisicruz replied to akua1's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I passed the NET at Greater Lowell and it took almost exactly three weeks for me to get my test results back. I'm really nrevous about the interview but hopefully I'll be ok. I dont think the test was...

  13. Greater Lowell Tech

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I applied to Greater Lowell and just found out I passed the NET!!! So I have to schedule an interview now and (fingers crossed) hopefully I'll get in. But I applied to the day program and I'm 23 years...

  14. NET essay

    prisicruz replied to sawyer1200's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I took the NET a couple of weeks ago and I did have an essay question. But it was the director who came up with the question himself; it wasn't part of the NET itself. My question was something about...

  15. NET Test Study Guide

    prisicruz replied to rockytopRN2b's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think that's something you have to purchase on your own. It has a couple of practice tests on the back and you have to fill in your answers inside the book itself. I have one and I wrote down all my...

  16. to be a nurse or not....

    prisicruz posted a topic in Nursing Career

    hi - I recently decided to become a nurse and I've been feeling really good about my decision. I've worked with other people my entire life and I know I'd feel really good by helping others and taking...

    prisicruz posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    hi all!! I'm going to be starting my CNA classes next Monday! I'm super excited about it too!!! I know it's "just a CNA class" and it's "not THAT demanding or challenging", as some like to put it, but...

  18. CNA class starts next week!!

    prisicruz replied to prisicruz's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    thanks SOOOO much for all the well wishes!!! it really helps a lot to hear from other, more experienced people (especially the night before the first day of class!!) I'm not nervous, I think it's just...

  19. $12,000 for LPN program?

    prisicruz replied to georgiaheart's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Greater Lowell Tech has an excellent program and they're also about 8 grand; for tuition, books, uniforms, an NCLEX course and some other things. 12 grand is pretty expensive in my opinion, I agree...

  20. to be a nurse or not....

    prisicruz replied to prisicruz's topic in Nursing Career

    It's not because I get sick and throw up often, it's actually because I so rarely get sick to the point where I throw up. I've gotten a stomach bug twice that I can remember and both times weren't bad...

  21. How about a thread for baby names you liked?

    prisicruz replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    girl names I like are Aileen, Evaliese (my daughter's name), Sabrina, I like Ashley but it's way too common. Sophie or Sophia are also really pretty. And Analiyah is a very pretty and rare name also....

  22. New Grad Positions?

    prisicruz replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I hear that if you worked in a hospital or nursing home as a cna and then become an lpn or an rn, you're almost gauranteed a position once you're done with school. Obeviously it would depend on what...

  23. tatted up and in nursing school

    prisicruz replied to mscgirl09's topic in General Nursing

    I dont think you should get a tattoo, especially if your hair is that short. Rihanna's tattoo behind her ear is clearly seen without even having to look for it. Her tattoo is pretty big so maybe...

  24. Anyone here who went to L&D as a new grad?

    prisicruz replied to twoangels's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I haven't graduated yet, but I really want to go into L&D; right after graduation if at all possible. I had no idea that med surg was a requisite, so I'm going to assume that it won't be an easy...

  25. New Grad Positions?

    prisicruz replied to cheesecake89's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Many people suggest looking into the hospital where you completed your clinicals. They already know you and, if you made a good impression, they'd have no problem in hiring you; assuming they're...
