I DID IT I DID IT I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This feels AMAZING! I couldn't be more happy. A hard stressful year is over!!! Hello life, nice to see you again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck to those of you out there who are in it now, or waiting to start. ...

the hardest thing was just clinical. I hated it with the instructors breathing down your neck, and being terrified everyday. I have been enjoying many sleep filled nights now! Ahhh, good luck to you!

I'm going to take my boards ASAP. I took the comprehensive ATI and it said I had a 98% chance of passing on the 1st try. So I am going to take the boards and get a job. Once summer is over I will go to my local community college and start on pre-reqs...

lol i meant to say give up...I'm obv. excited!

oh yeah, what V.V? lol

You have to do "Hand Hygiene" reguardless. I pulled BB, I remember I was sooo terrified with that first check off, bc you never know what to expect. But I passed, and it felt great. Flash cards I wouldn't bother with, unless your dead set on using th...

I'm just about done with my program...I graduate next week! Let me tell you I HATED CLINICALS! I hated them from the start...all the way to the very last day. I hated doing bed baths, call lights, brief changes. I hated all the research, the knowing ...

You start in a couple of weeks, so I'll put the assessment DVD in your student mailbox. You'll learn what that is, and wheres it as when you start. ;-) How excited are you getting!?!?!

Plaza, didn't you just start last month? You will see things alot differently towards the end, trust me. I myself have failed one quiz and one test, and you know what IT IS FINE! My school doesn't allow you to make up, or retake tests, if you fail, y...

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I doubt your going to get into the May class. I started the May class 09 last year, I had to apply, take the net, and pay the fees in Nov of 08. Sucked because I wanted to be in the Dec start class but it was full so I ...

Mmmmm we get our phones taken away...its beyond dumb, and we get them back at the end of the day. Its almost been an entire year, I've yet to see an instructor take a phone away. Classroom is a time for learning, how every my teachers don't teach, ye...

Did she give you Ped math? Surface Area of the child X Adult dose 1.7 You still aspirate giving an IM, but why would you aspirate giving a subq? your in the fat not a muscle, your not going to be pulling up blood.....

I never study..........EVER. I made it this whole way with a B in every class, nothing lower than an 85. I found that I could read the stupid chapters over and over, and nothing I studied was on the test, so I over thunk the ?s and got them wrong. Yo...

My school makes you either leave your phone in your car during a test, or put it on the desk in the front of the room. If it goes off during an exam (ringing or text) you get a 0, its happened to a few in my class. You can leave your class to answer ...

for $20,00-40,000 go to your state school and get a BSN! Holy ****!

You buy everything yourself, how ever you like it. You will need to buy a stethoscope (any kind any brand), a blood pressure cuff-walmart has them for $10, a watch, a pen light (walmart or the nurse store at park city has them) and a medical clip boa...

CONGRATS NINA! :anpom::anpom::anpom: NO MORE SPN!!!! Ugh I'm so majorly jealous! Blahhh 3 months to go!

As far as binders and such to be organized for school....mmm. From what I remember of level 1 you have Vocational Relations for 1 week- so you just need a small binder, its a super easy class, but some actually failed it...how I don't know haha. Than...

I know the uniforms for Lancaster Career are sooooooooooooo hideous! I can't wait to burn mine! 3 months to the day for graduation....I can't wait to never wears these hideous blue stripes again!

You don't have to dissect cadavers. I'm currently enrolled in the same program your attending in March. I just started level III, I graduate in May. I can't be much help to you since I am in the Day Program. I heard the night one is much more relaxed...

Congrats on making it past the 1st month, you'll be done in no time. I just finished 6 months and I have 6 more to go, I'm going nuts, I can't wait!!!!!

April 16-----------6 months away EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it, I hope these next 6 months fly by as fast as these past 6 months!

I can't believe your school lets you pass with a 75% on your drug calc test...THATS SCARY! My school you have to get 100% you HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO CONVERT OR ELSE YOU COULD KILL SOMEONE! Id focus on getting a 100% on that test, and def get tutoring. Y...

I don't know what kind of nursing school the original poster is going to, but most LPN programs are not like that. Expecting you to read almost 500pages -5-7 chapters over a weekend is not how it works. First semester is stressful at first I know, bu...
