Has anyone been accepted into an ADN program, failed, then decided to switch to an LPN program?

Any advice on great NCLEX study books from fundamentals through to adult health III? I don't want to overload myself, but I need a great book with clever NCLEX questions and breaks the rationale down. Thanks!!

Thanks a bunch Mannurse2be!!!

Hi, I've since transferred but I had 2 clinical days and the schedule was based on the passing of check-offs. Also you can choose to have clinicals back 2 back for the two days or once a week. Hope this helps.

Any advice for the first semester of Nursing School?

Would anyone please share their experiences as an LPN or BSN student? To make a long story short, I was in an ADN program and fell short by 2 points? I'm ready to go back to nursing school but I'm apprehensive about which program to choose. Thanks:-)

Thanks ladyfree!!!!

Thank you all for your input! I have a lot to think about because my ultimate goal is to be a great nurse one day. Thanks:-)

Hi there, Thank you first for replying. I know I should try another program but this is my issue. I am a hands on learner. I was still memorizing instead of learning when I was at Darton. I knew I could have made it and I am not shifting blame, but I...

Hey CLUVPN, Could you explain the scope of an LPN? I was in an RN program here in Georgia, but I don't think that school was for me, so I am transferring to an LPN program, acquire the skills, then bridge. Any information would help!

Hi, Would you please tell me the scope of practice of an LPN. I live in GA, got accepted to an RN program, felt lost as all get out because I'm more of a "hands-on" type of person. What are the main differences of LPN or RN? Thanks

I agree with Kristen82483, Darton is all about money and not teaching the reality of nursing today. There is more classroom than actual clinical time. You would want to be confident in the skills that are provided as an entry-level nurse, not asking...

Hi there I am applying. I had a horrible experience at another collegr. I have taken all of the pre requisites known to man and by now i should have a bachelor's degree...i'd rather go to a technical college. At least I'll reap tge hard work I've put...

Has anyone been accepted the first round or multiple applications until acceptance?

Hi Success88, I know how you feel. I kept applying and finally got in. Now I have to apply for the Spring Evening Program as well due to personal life interfering with nursing. I hope you all get in because nursing is tough and rewarding as well. It ...

Thank you !!!!!!

Hey, Sent message to your emaii.

Oh no! Well first thing I understand your nervousness and sleep deprivtion b/c I have the same thing. I know several people who had to commute long distances to Darton and graduated with their class. They told me the same thing that one has to be ser...

Hey Kristen82483, I have a friend of mine who went straight through and she was in her forties. She graduated fall '11 and was employed right after passing her boards. The best advice she gave me was to pray, work hard, study hard, and stay on p's an...
