No, Helena, you didn't miss anything. That's why I don't want the OP to waste their time or money. An LPN is great if you want to actually work as one(I will be), but not just as a means to getting an RN.

I don't understand why you keep saying that LPN's applying to CT-CCNP are not competing against the hundreds of regular applicants, that's exactly who they are competing with. The applications are ranked all together, there is not a separate ranking ...

No, at the Community Colleges you have to first apply as a generic ADN student THEN if you are accepted you apply for the LPN bridge. Helena can attest to this procedure. IIRC you are a student @ St. V's which follows different protocol, as does BHSN...

Why aren't you doing well in it? Is it your study habits, although if we're talking intro to bio it doesn't really require too much studying, or is it your professor?

Mine was a bunch of chemistry and earth science.

Good luck to you. I'm going with a private school because it's worth it to me in the end. I'll finish a year sooner then with the state & that's a year of earning $$'s. The thing you need to consider is that there are very few LPN jobs for new gr...

The CTTECH program can be über competitive. Lincoln Tech, you're in as long as you can spell your name & pay. Plus, the only Finaid with tech is pell or veterens benefits. Otherwise, it's cash only.

Lincoln Tech runs over 30k & can have some classmates that are a bit rough around the edges. If you can afford it & keep to yourself you can do it.

You can either try to provide them with your proof or suck it up & move on. Honestly, 12 clinical hours is a lot to miss. Does your school have a make up policy?

I found A&P 1 to be my easiest course yet. It really depends what your strong points are. I went in terrified & quickly realized that it was not nearly as hard as it's made out to be.

I find A&P to be quite easy. Chemistry actually required a bit of studying even though I am an A student in math.

I got a 92 on the first exam & my next one is histology, connective tissue, chemistry, & something else that I'm drawing a blank on right now.

I know exactly what you're saying! I'm taking the same course load plus 1 more class & the only issue is chemistry.

Mine is A&P 1 with the lab, Chem 111 with a lab, Psych 201(?) Dev. Psych, & Sociology 101.

Her problem is not that the statistics won't meet the qualifications but that it won't be completed in time for the Feb. 1st cut off. They will not accept a math class in progress. So her highest completed math class would be 095. That won't do. If s...

Can you take Math 136 or 137 in the fall? That will cover you. Or can you test out? I was told if you pass higher than I think a 40 on the Accuplacer that you'll not have to take the math. I scored 38... Math 137 was an easy course so if you can swin...

Good luck! Hopefully she'll be an easy grader. :)

You're AP instructor is a Waitress & can't pronounce the words?! I'd be scared!

I want to go to your school. A 90.05% is an A- 3.7 @ my school

While you may have a 4.0 in current classes your cumulative gpa can not be. They may accept students based on that not your current gpa. Each school is different. Some do total, some do last 30 credits, some do last 5 years, etc.

Probably because she missed the T when posting CTCC-NP.

I say double up on sciences & fill in with others to maintain full time status.

Well, Capitol's requirements don't apply to her because she attends Holyoke & is looking to apply for the CTCC-NP @ NWCC. I'm not shocked that each school is different since CT likes to do everything backwards anyway. :)
