I have yet to find a course and I am in the Jackson Tn area. I am told some hospitals teach you once employed its like the chicken before the egg!!! I want to get certified too! good luck

Thank you, Jackson is the closest area for me too. Boy its a big difference from what I had read about perhaps the biggest difference is being an RN. I have made more money per hour doing frangrance modeling and no experience needed there. Sad

I want to try to get into the bridge program which is LPN to RN in one year. There is limited space and only one class per year. One of the requirements is the ACT test. Ive never taken one. Any suggestions on what to concentrate on or if the nursing ACT is different than a general college entrance ACT???? Any help would be appreciated!

I am about to graduate and I have NO IDEA what to expect for an hourly rate. I am new to TN and I am brand new to this field. I don't want to over sell myself nor under sell myself. I thought about being honest and stating such at an interview but I don't think that would be a good idea. I have gone online and tried to research currenty salaries but I am not sure how accurate the websites are and of course job postings do not stage wages. I'd greatly appreciate any info anyone can give!

Thank you so much and good luck to you!

I just wanted to know if anyone has actually gone through this school and became an RN. I am turning 47 this year and I'd like to continue on but I am afraid of online schools. Do you actually get a degree are you actually employable. I am totally foreign to this type of learning and at my age I can't take any chances. I'd appreciate any comments!

Okay, Im going to be 46 soon and I am in my last trimester studying mother/baby. Its heard we only have 4 tests and must maitain an 81 or get thrown out of the program. First test I got an 84 bearly made it. Also have an ATI on this section too and need a 70 the highest I've done on practice is 66. I'm feeling nervous and am wondering what was I thinking starting over at my age. I want it but my morale is a little low. Anyone else go through periods of self doubt?

I am about to start LPN at Tenn Tech in May and I am extemely excited. I have about 36 college credits but I havent been to school in ages. I am now starting over at 45. EEEK I am hoping that I will get my license and my goal is to then continue on to receive my RN. I am trying to do research now but it seems a bit confusing to me. It seems the fast track is still the same amount of credits and time needed? 65 and 2 years??? Does receiving your LNP make it easier to get into an RN course and are some schools easier than others? I am in the Jackson TN area. for your thoughts!
