    hopefull2011 replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    You know what???? If you don't want to hear reality then that is your problem. Just trying to help, but looks like you just want to hear fairly tales. Good luck getting through the program. No...

    hopefull2011 replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    For the most part, you WILL be done by 3pm on most days. I'm pretty sure 1st semester you will be out earlier than 3 on clinical days....maybe 1:30 or 2 pm if I remember correctly. And if you have...

    You may be the lucky group who gets an easy schedule like that...who knows, maybe they just changed things!! (Which happens often!) Like I said, and I CANNOT stress this enough: BE FLEXIBLE!!!...

    hopefull2011 replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I really think this is VERY INACCURATE. Please don't go by this....the ladies in the nursing office really don't know much. They are just the secretaries. You will never get out of clinical at 12pm...

    It really depends on who you have for clinical, but 6:30 am is usually the time you have to be there. Definitely before 7 am for the day program. And you can sit for the CNA class once semester 1 is...

    "You can't sit for the CNA test, but they do test you in the program." Yes, you CAN sit for the C.N.A. exam once you finish 140. I did, and worked as a C.N.A. until I became an L.P.N. after 2nd...

    hopefull2011 replied to Gstar's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Hi, everyone. Being a CNA doesn't give you "extra points" at all. The reason they collect your registry is because, if you are a CNA, then you don't have to take NURS 140 during the first semester,...
