    LVN student failed final exam

    I♥Scrubs replied to smith_tiff06's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You can pass the class and fail the final. Like at my school you only need a 77% to pass the class. So if you are high 90's and you get a 70 on the final you can still pass the course. I think our...

    Can I handle working/LPN school?

    I♥Scrubs replied to chacha82's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    My program is 10 months long, we have about two months left. When I started school I was working about 15 hours a week and I was third in my class. But I also studied every chance I got. Now in second...

    How many schools did you apply to?

    I♥Scrubs replied to HeatherMax's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I applied to three. Two were RN programs with the first year option of being a LPN after. I got wait-listed at both and applied to the program I am in now. I also found a job as a pharmacy technician....

    Did your school look at your high school transcripts?

    For all you LPN/LVN's out there, was it hard to find a job after graduation?

    I♥Scrubs replied to I♥Scrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks everyone! For clinical this week I was at a primary care clinic and I loved it. Since we started clinical back a few months ago I have done the nursing homes and the surgical floor at the...

    I♥Scrubs replied to priemabri's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I am a LPN student and I don't know where you are but unlike the other posters said, there ARE jobs for LPN's here. Many people that graduated from my program work in the hospital clinics and Doctor...

    I♥Scrubs replied to I♥Scrubs's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks for all the replies! I was working more last semester but I decided to focus on my school more this semester and I am so glad that I did! I still work, but not as much. I currently live in NY,...

    Hi all. I am class president and so I have to write a speech for capping ceremony next Thursday. I asked my teacher what exactly I need to talk about and she said basically just telling them what we...

    was i truely wrong

    I♥Scrubs replied to rvd4now's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I really don't know, other than if it's less than 1 mL you need to round to the 100ths place, it's just how it is. Let us know the reasoning they give

    was i truely wrong

    I♥Scrubs replied to rvd4now's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    That's a good question. But yes, less then 1ml is a TB syringe so round to the 100th, greater than 1ml, round to the tenth. Maybe it isn't a med error because it wasn't in real life, it was just in...

    How was your program broken up? What did you learn first?

    I♥Scrubs replied to pnkgirl25's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Our first semester which we are just finishing (finals start Thursday) included Fundamentals, Pharm 1 (which was basic math calculations), A&P and growth and development. Next semester is...

    How many hours should I study for each class?

    I♥Scrubs replied to futurelpn0219's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    There is no right answer to this, it really depends on the person. I myself have a good memory and I learn things pretty quick so I really don't study as much as my classmates. I also have a part time...

    Anyone else feel like class is a battlefield? Venting ahead...

    I♥Scrubs replied to gainschool4lpn's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You will have that. I would say 50% of my class or more are CNA's and through the LTC clinicals they would complain they were bored with only one patient and would tell other students they didn't need...

    Tips for clinicals (today was my first day and overwhelmed)

    I♥Scrubs replied to cmm4ever's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    My first day of clinical I was the only one in my group that was not a CNA or had no care-giving experience. It DOES get better with practice. The first day I felt so weird being there because I was...

    Anyone else find nursing school not as tough?

    I♥Scrubs replied to FLNurse2015's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    It hasn't been as hard for me as I thought. I still see my parents and friends pretty regularly, and I also work part time. We are just about half way through a 10 month program. I had a 98%...

    Any one in/has been in a 10 month LPN program? few questions

    I♥Scrubs replied to countrygirl1234's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I am in my fourth month of a ten month program. I wouldn't say the information is "difficult" it is just a new way of thinking, a new frame of mind so to speak. And it is more time consuming than...

    I♥Scrubs replied to xAllisonWonderlandx's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Don't be nervous, you have other students, the CNA's there and your instructor if you need anything. So if you aren't sure then ask. I have no health care experience and Monday will be my 5th day of...

    I♥Scrubs posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Hello all. So we just finished our first quarter of school (10 weeks in) and I ended up on high honor (yay me!) Last week we started clinical and I got to feed a resident. However this week we really...
