    AmyinNC05 replied to RainbowDash's topic in General Students

    I agree 100%. Scaring the crap out of students isn't going to help. We're already stressed and overwhelmed. Like you, we had a very motivating speech which included all the instructors introducing...

  3. How do you study?

    AmyinNC05 replied to HeiseC's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I love your idea of the 2 different colored highlighters. We aren't allowed to record lectures. I read my material ahead of time and highlight important points. I use my power points and print 3...

  12. Books!! Do you think it is necessary to study before Sept. Start??

    AmyinNC05 replied to missy0910's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I would actually love to read a head of time, and have my books now. However, we don't have our orientation until the day before class starts, and I guess they will give us our book list then. I don't...

  13. Whew! First full week of classes done!

    AmyinNC05 replied to micronurse2b12's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Jaycee-We are in the same boat. Like you, I can't gain weight easily either. If I get sick, I lose weight, and it takes a while to get it back. I'm holding steady with what I've weighed for a long...

    AmyinNC05 replied to micronurse2b12's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Aspiring-thanks for telling us about your first week! I am prepared for a full load, but I have to be honest. 9 exams scares me to pieces! Leenie-I also appreciate you sharing your program as well. I...

  17. I need a little bit of advice!

    AmyinNC05 replied to Kdrenee's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I completely agree with the PP. I too debated between LPN and RN. I've decided on LPN for now then bridge to the RN later. I do think it comes down to what is best for you. I've been a CNA, and I know...

    AmyinNC05 replied to RNCDN's topic in Nursing Career

    I would recommend as someone else did that you get to the underlying reason for your anxiety. Having struggled with anxiety myself, I do understand where you are coming from. Just because you decide...

  19. Is this what I'm always going to deal with?

    AmyinNC05 replied to mom_coach_nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been through the same thing, and I get tired of having to sound like a broken record. I start LPN school this fall, and I'm happy I'm going (something I wanted to do years ago now). I do plan to...
