  1. WIA for LPN school

    SpencerFLA replied to **~pouty~**'s topic in Florida Nursing

    You are very welcome! I hate suprises as well. I was so anxious to just "get it done" and be "official". Now that I am, I'm very excited to start but also very nervous. I haven't taken the "core". My...

  2. WIA for LPN school

    SpencerFLA replied to **~pouty~**'s topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks! Sorry to hear that your experience has been less than stellar. It def can be frustrating. I'm not sure about the core. I'm assuming (I guess I better check) but they paid for the full term,...

  3. WIA for LPN school

    SpencerFLA replied to **~pouty~**'s topic in Florida Nursing

    Hi, I used WIA to start LPN. The process is pretty easy. You attend an orientation, take an assessment and they provide you with a list of schools/classes that you can take. After choosing the PN...

    SpencerFLA replied to NHanCI's topic in Florida Nursing

    MSMiami, Ask away, I'm happy to help any way I can. Unfortunately you are required to use the forms they give you in orientation. Now, I guess it depends on your relationship with your doctor. I knew...

  11. Atlantic Tech - HELP!!!

    SpencerFLA replied to NHanCI's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm not sure on that one. I believe the TEAS can be taken 3 times per year (don't quote me). As far as the TEAS, you have to score in the 40th percentile in each category. The bright side, if you pass...

  12. Atlantic Tech - HELP!!!

    SpencerFLA replied to NHanCI's topic in Florida Nursing

    Be happy to help. So, here's the process I went through. This could be somewhat different for you, as I utilized the WIA program through unemployment to pay for my tuition. First I did the TABE, then...

    SpencerFLA replied to NHanCI's topic in Florida Nursing

    NHanCI do you know under what circumstances the classes are cut to 10 months vs the full 12? I read on their programs that it's at the students pace, but doesn't go into any further details. Thanks...

    The next class starts Oct 26th. I know that during registration for the last class the LPN program was already closed for August. Prior to registering you have to get your immunizations, background...

  16. Anyone who attended any of the Broward County Technical Schools?

    SpencerFLA replied to KD88's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thank you for all of the information. I thought Math would be my worst score on the Teas, but it ended up to be Science (who knew). But I'll definately use the next month or so to bone up on my Math....

  18. Anyone who attended any of the Broward County Technical Schools?

    SpencerFLA replied to KD88's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm a guy so I think I can handle that. Lol. What do use to lug all those books around in? Backpack? Do you think a voice recorder is helpful or not needed? I haven't been to school in 20 yrs so I'm...

    SpencerFLA replied to KD88's topic in Florida Nursing

    That's great to hear. I start Oct 26th. So here's a dumb question, but do you bring ALL of the books with you on the first day? So far, i've been really happy with all of the faculty there during the...

  21. Atlantic Tech - Oct 09

    SpencerFLA replied to SpencerFLA's topic in Florida Nursing

    :DGood suggestion. I also google'd a lot of things for the math section since I knew it was my weakest so you may be able to find practice tests, quizzes, study guides, etc. by doing that. I know I...

  22. Atlantic Tech - Oct 09

    SpencerFLA replied to SpencerFLA's topic in Florida Nursing

    The only advice I have on that one is to read everything slowly/carefully. Also use every last second to review all of your answers. That was the method I used which let me eliminate the incorrect...

    SpencerFLA posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So, I'm apologizing in advance of how dumb this question is, but I'm going to ask anyway. I haven't attended school in 20 something years and I'm registered to start LPN at a tech school in October. I...
