    nvr2late replied to juliern81's topic in Georgia Nursing

  5. NLN Results....

    nvr2late replied to JDLAStew's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I have a CNA license even though I only took the course to obtain the PCT. I never worked as either. So are you saying that there ARE 'basic nursing' questions, or strictly math and science,...

  6. NLN Results....

    nvr2late replied to JDLAStew's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  10. How long did you wait to get accepted into a LPN/LVN program?

    nvr2late replied to BrittanyLeigh's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    At our vocational colleges, you first have to pass the typical '8th grade entrance exam' Asset/Compass/Act. That's a no-brainer. THEN, you have to pass either the TEAS or the NLN to get into the PN...
