  1. OB Tech/LPN Scrub

    Being offended is useless and in no way productive. I had surgical rotations in school, not that I need to explain that. If they wanted a CST, they would have posted for it, not an LPN. Useless post...

  3. Average TEAS V Score? Your score?

    Took the TEAS V. I got a 78. I thought oh, no. That's awful. I hadn't studied a lick, so it's better than I'd expected...for not knowing what to expect. When I told the admissions office I got a 78,...

  13. Questions to ask while School Shopping

    Hi folks, God willing I will graduate and become licensed this fall as an LPN. I LOVE my school, but it's expensive. I'm looking at getting my RN at a community college and then do a BSN completion...

  15. First of all, it is what it is. I've worked in social services with children for 10 years. And while I agree it's often a frivolously used term, bullying is bullying and I am not here to discuss...
  16. How do you do that? Really. I do not know how to assertively address this passive-aggressive b.s. tactfully. I honestly somehow missed that

  18. Clinical uniforms?

    School issued scrubs. Black pants (which we could buy elsewhere, but the school sells 'em very cheap @ $15/pair). Black scrub tops with red piping. School logo patch we have to adhere appropriately to...

  21. What is your school schedule like?

    I feel like you all are spending so much more time in class/clinicals than I have scheduled. Unless I'm seriously missing something, I believe my lecture/lab/clinical time is pretty short and isolated...

  23. LPN-RN Bridge Programs in Florida. New State Rule :( STINKS

    There's no other community college within feasible driving distance a few days a week? Maybe check out some other schools policies. Maybe this is more of a school policy than anything else as a way to...
  24. Does this happen to you, too?

    Anytime I tell someone I'm going for the LPN, their instant reaction is: WHY?!?!::snaggletooth:: THERE BE NO JOBS!!!-(!!! I've honestly lost my patience to deal with this. Because I want to. That's...
  25. What do you wear under scrubs?

    I'm mostly talking about t-shirts, but if you have underwear recommendations I'm listening LOL I'm scrub-clueless... Anyway, I'm someone who's ALWAYS hot. I wear a 3x (and shopping for plus-size...
