I obtained my LPN prior to completing the ADN program. While there are some great LPNs out there, the education in a practical nursing program is just not equivalent. LPNs are very task oriented, and the education grazes the surface. I wouldn't say the program is easy, it's just a different focus. The ADN program goes much more in depth and I saw that first-hand.

Wallace doesn't have a "cut off." The lowest score that someone was accepted with previously was a 58. They don't use a certain score to determine... it just depends on how competitive your score is with others. Good luck! :)

I graduated early Aug. too, and I didn't even take a week off! I've also studied from a few different sources... any info you study will help! I don't think you need to worry about studying "too many sources." It can't hurt in my opinion. My director told me to do a minimum of 3,000 q's, and study any practice books I could. She's a CRNP, so I trust she knows what she's talkin about in terms of boards. Good luck!! :)

I actually worked it by doing 1000 ml/ 40u X's 4u and got 100 mL, I just didn't think it was right! so I guess that is the right answer after all! THANK YOU!! :) :)

I hate to annoy people with asking a calculation question, because I'm sure most of you are as highly annoyed by them as me! Here is the calculation: Add 40 units of Pitocin to 1000ml D5RL. Infuse at a rate to deliver 4 units of Pitocin per hour. How many mls per hour should you administer? (infusion pump) Ok, you can't just straight add units to mL's, right? I have only had infusion pump problems with ml's so far, so this one is a little confusing to me! I have even tried googling similar problems with no luck. If anyone could help I would appreciate it so much!
