  8. LPN's / LVN's: Are they respected?

    Where I did clinicals, I had no idea that some of the nurses I was working with were LPNs and not RNs until I got close enough to see their name badges...lol! They were doing all the same work as the...
  9. We learned during my LPN program. We learned about IVs and fluids in class and were tested on it. Then we practiced on fake arms til we felt ready then we did each other under the supervision of our...

  13. Nclex pn

    Congrats on the good pop up! I am scheduled to take the NCLEX-PN on Sept 16th. Can you tell me if it was what you expected? Easier or harder than expected? How many questions did you get and...

  17. TEAS Question

    I scored a 73.7 or close to it...don't recall the exact score. My college required a 53% (I think). I got in and just graduated! I didn't study at all. I found the most difficult parts to be the...

  22. First week was a whirl wind. I had 3 classes and tons of info thrown at me for each class....so much so that we had a hard time remembering what info/assignments went for each class! My schedule was...
  23. I had a 4.0 GPA....and I am still confused about the TEAS test score...on the test it said 74% (needed a 53% to pass and be considered for selection) but I have heard that it wasn't on a 100% scale???...
  24. Oh- I forgot. No, I am not currently working. I was laid off February 2009 but they say it is hard to juggle a job and this program at once so I guess it all worked out. The nursing instructors did...
  25. Thanks! Well, we actually just finished with AHS 104 (Intro to healtcare) and will start the next round October 4th. DTC had taken AHS 104 out of the pre-reqs last year and we had to take that first...
