    Glenna, LPN replied to virtouso's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I passed my NCLEX last month. I took it on October 4th and found out that I was a nurse the very next day. Right now I am looking for a job. I had an interview last week. Since Thanksgiving is this...

  4. Getting a hospital job

    Glenna, LPN replied to IreneK's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So you are working on classes to get into nursing school, correct? If I were you I'd get my CNA and then turn around and get your CNA 2 and apply for a position at the hospital. That's what I did....

  5. LPN? RN?

    Glenna, LPN replied to Nikki_sixx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I live in Oregon. The way the system is over here is crazy to even get into the nursing program. In the last three years they have gone into a point system when they go over your transcripts. It is...

    Glenna, LPN replied to virtouso's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I've had classmates who have passed and stopped at 205. Think happy thoughts. In my state (Oregon), I was able to check online the very next day and saw that I passed around 8:30am. Some of my other...

    Glenna, LPN replied to virtouso's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hey there! I'm sure by the time you read this you'll have already taken your NCLEX. I actually used both the Exam Cram by Pearson and Saunders. I felt that the Pearson gave me a good quick review of...

  9. Failed NCLEX PN Twice

    Glenna, LPN replied to edl148's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When you go to take your NCLEX again and you are sitting infront of the computer, I would take a deep breath, hold it, and relase it slowly. Just to help get the stress out of your system. Don't over...

  10. help! future nursing career plan

    Glenna, LPN replied to poodloo28's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Have you talked to your academic adviser at your high school? I would go and talk to one. I am sure that they would have all the 411 you would need in order to guide you where you would like to go and...

  11. Tips of Nursing School Sucess

    Glenna, LPN replied to mcruz211's topic in General Students

    Notecards will be your friends. If you learn best with study groups, I'd say friend people in class quickly. Classes will be moving by quickly and a lot of information will be thrown at you. What I...

  12. Test Anxiety putting a damper on my grades..

    Glenna, LPN replied to nalaa83's topic in General Students

    I've always hated taking tests. I always second guess myself and it's the end of the world for me. When I took A&P at the community college, my theme song was REM's, "It's the end of the world."...

  13. What was your "aha!" moment when you knew you were meant to be a nurse?

    Glenna, LPN replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

    Growing up I felt like everytime we turned around someone either fell ill or died who were either family or friends. So I've spent my fair share of time sitting by someone in their hospital bed...

  14. And the weight gain begins..

    Glenna, LPN replied to windmill182's topic in General Students

    I understand your struggle with weight during school. I used to be 287 pounds in 2007 and started Jenny Craig. Took me a year to lose 100 pounds. Stopped the program because I was sick of the food....

  15. What do you guys think?

    Glenna, LPN replied to Thujone's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If your CMA studies will overlap some of your LPN studies I'd say hold off on the LPN and just wait to get your RN. You will be saving yourself a few bucks in the long run in student loans. When I was...

  16. Celebrating the halfway point!

    Glenna, LPN replied to ssalulu's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    :monkeydance::balloons::yelclap::cheers::w00t::clpty:*wine WAY TO GO!!! I know how great that feels to look at yourself and think, damn all this hard work is slowly starting to pay off. Half way to...

  17. Senior LVN student in need of encouragement/advice

    Glenna, LPN replied to MedicalMelody's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    You sound like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. How much longer do you have left until you graduate? I take it that you are in your last term from senior being in the title. I do not...

  18. IS 15,000 to 20,000 a reasonable loan for LPN

    Glenna, LPN replied to shanie818's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Yep...I went for the private school because I had no other way around it. It's really hard to get into an RN program in Oregon. I now have 28,000 in student loans for LPN school not counting my other...

  19. HESI for LPN

    Glenna, LPN replied to NursingStudentYaya's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I understand the feelings you are having right now. I'm sure that you are at the end of your rope and all you want to do is sleep. My school had us do a paper based HESI because the people my school...

  20. Not quite sure yet...

    Glenna, LPN replied to lookingintonursing's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I really wanted to be a nurse. The way they kept changing things here in Oregon they made it so hard to get directly into an RN program so I decided to go the LPN route. After the new year I'm going...

  21. Taking my Nclex pn next Tuesday....

    Glenna, LPN replied to Sadea12's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    HEY!! I graduated in aug too! I also took my NCLEX on Oct. 4th and found out that I passed the very next day. Everyone is different when it comes to studying. To me you should like you have been doing...

  22. My Future with Nursing...Unsure!

    Glenna, LPN replied to Student0ntheRise's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I think that you should listen to your heart. This will be your career. Ask yourself this, will I be happy in nursing 10-15 years from now? Don't go for nursing if your friends are telling you this is...

  23. LPN nursing student feeling very discouraged

    Glenna, LPN replied to vc01ca's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I understand where you are coming from. I took A&P before I got into my LPN program. Now that was a year of hell for me. My theme song was REM's, "It's the end of the world." Learning every part...

  24. How to prepare myself for the LVN program?

    Glenna, LPN replied to mvalentine's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm going to give you a link to my old A&P Pro's web page. On this page there will be A&P 1, 2, and 3 powerpoints. If I didn't have these I think I would have failed! He made A&P easier...

  25. Passed the entrance exam!

    Glenna, LPN replied to Iridescent Orchid's topic in LPN, LVN Students
