  1. GRADUATED!!

    internationalsarah replied to Lmomma's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Congratulations! I graduate in another 7 weeks and can't wait. What happens on the other end of nursing school is a little daunting though. Somehow I don't feel fully prepared for the NCLEX or work...

  2. Today's the day!

    internationalsarah posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm off for my first day at school! Excited beyond words and fingers crossed that in 13 months I'll be an LPN. I'm a little apprehensive that I won't be able to juggle everything, so it will be...

  3. Spinoff thread-A or pass

    internationalsarah replied to Gottawanna's topic in General Students

    I have been able to sustain a 4.0 for now. I have 3 pre-reqs for my RN left, and doubt very much that I will be able to get through Math with an A. I recently started the LPN class at my CC and...

  4. 2014 LPN students

    internationalsarah replied to Zalina's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Three weeks into the program at my local CC. The first unit is the CNA class so we have been learning the basics of care and skills. Weekly exams, a class presentation and we started NA clinicals...

  5. Step up from CNA to LPN...help!

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

    My local community college has an LPN program, but the first 5 weeks are essentially the nursing assistant program. If you are already a CNA you don't have to enter until after the first 5

  6. 2014 LPN students

    internationalsarah replied to Zalina's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm eager to get started. The first 5 weeks are CNA training, so we will only be half a class at first (CNA's get to skip the first session). Now I just need to make sure my kids have everything...

  8. Anyone have these feelings?!?!

    internationalsarah replied to NurseEric81's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations!!

  9. Anyone have these feelings?!?!

    internationalsarah replied to NurseEric81's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't start school until Monday, but I can imagine that having the computer shut off at 75 questions can be a huge anticlimax. You have spent years working towards this day and then suddenly it's...

  10. Good hand lotion?

    internationalsarah replied to Quark09's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I was a nail tech in a former life and swear by Creative Nail's Cucumber Heel Therapy. Not just for feet, it works well on any dry skin, elbows,

  11. Dansko EU/US sizing discrepancy?

    internationalsarah replied to ceebeeRN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I can't speak specifically for Dansko's (yet), but having lived in Europe I can tell you that I am an 8 - 8.5 and consistently wear a 39/40 in Euro sizing so the fact that you found 40's too small...

  12. A&P accelerated ?

    internationalsarah replied to w292737's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends on your personal situation. If you live at home, no kids, no job and can dedicate all day to studying, then go for it. I did AP1 as a 16 week class and we had quizzes every week with an...

  13. NCLEX-My promise if I passed! Passed at 75 questions

    internationalsarah replied to sp2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations! My journey is just beginning - I start my LPN course in 12 days and on to my RN from there. Can't wait for the day when I can write 'RN' after my

  14. Traveling with school-age kids

    internationalsarah replied to delphine22's topic in Agency Nurses

    I know that you don't want to homeschool, but what about an online curriculum for your local school district? Your children won't have to suffer being the 'new kid' all year, you won't have the...

  15. Roll Call 2014

    internationalsarah replied to Brucshaire's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I got pulled up to the July class! So excited to be starting my journey next

  16. Overseas With No Chem Lab Classes

    internationalsarah replied to lovettm's topic in Government, Military

    Have you tried UMUC? You can check the Asia classes as well as the Euro class

  17. Roll Call 2014

    internationalsarah replied to Brucshaire's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Just got the call for a September start for the LPN program. Keeping my fingers crossed that someone from the July cohort drops out as I am first on the wait list. Can't wait to finally begin my...

  18. Best UK specialty?

    internationalsarah posted a topic in International Nursing

    Firstly, Hello. I am newly registered to the site although I've been reading up for the last couple of weeks. I still haven't been able to find information relevant to my situation. Now that both of...
