  1. Failed PN program, Can start RN?

    Well I can't speak for other schools but my school policy is if you fail from a nursing program or have 2 or more withdrawals from nursing classes you can only be accepted on an individual basis. You...
  2. Why do some people look down on LPNs?

    I believe this is the answer to your question :) Of course not all RN's are like this. Most seem to appreciate the LPNs and
  3. Afraid of loosing my job

    Oh my goodness this post=me. The Commuter has wonderful advice and sounds exactly like me. Not that I can't joke around sometimes but my natural personality is very serious and detail and problem...
  4. Micro online what was I thinking?

    I don't know what you were thinking
  5. Study Atmosphere

    I'm taking A&P 2 with microbiology right now too so I understand your pain :) Personally, I study at home, alone, with no noise at all. I don't study well in groups because of distractions....
  6. Practice on each other?

    In my Lpn program we practiced on each other :) not much but for our IV therapy class I know I got stuck at least 5-6 times. It was fun
  7. The most annoying student

    I agree, all of the previous posters have very good advice. I understand exactly how you feel, we have a girl in one of my classes that is loud and obnoxious as well. She constantly is talking over...
  8. In my opinion, LPN school was 10 times harder than my RN pre reqs. If your having a lot of trouble, especially in A&P, LPN school won't be any easier. It's a common misconception that because LPN...
  9. Pre-Reqs! HELP!!!!

    Okay I see :) well that is a heavy course load regardless. I definitely wouldn't do it in all one semester. Like the previous poster said, microbiology is very intense and heavy. In my opinion, it is...
  10. Pre-Reqs! HELP!!!!

    What about A&P 2? Don't you need that one as
  11. Microbiology unknowns

    Thank you!
  12. Microbiology unknowns

    So our class is scheduled to do our micro unknowns in a couple of weeks. I've searched for some threads on here about the subject but they all seem to be several years old so i'm starting a new one....
  13. Microbiology unknowns

    Thank you!
  14. Microbiology unknowns

    I had my unknown today and I made a 100% on mine. I'm so excited :) I guess I was worrying too much. Thank you all for your
  15. How many pre-reqs do you have to go?

    I'm taking micro and A&P 2 this semester and then I'm done with my pre reqs!
  16. Hi seeking advice..

    I agree with runbabyrun. These classes are meant to weed out people for the nursing program. I don't know your academic background, but it is pretty common knowledge on AN that A&P are very tough...
  17. If you had all the funds..

    Oh I'm sorry I just realized you asked this question for nurses who have their bsn. I'm an LPN trying to go to a bridge program but I hope my advice helps anyway
  18. If you had all the funds..

    I like the community college route for a couple of reasons. Yes it's cheaper (although I know you said money is no issue) but the classrooms are substantially smaller so that means you have more one...
  19. Best order for science prereqs

    Option 3 simply because that's how I did my pre reqs and haven't regretted doing it that way :) good
  20. Is A&P 1 the most difficult class in nursing?

    Personally, I think microbiology has been the hardest pre req. A&P is really easy to me but micro is rough. However, like many of the pp have stated, nursing school is definitely harder than all...
  21. Micro Unknown

    Okay reading this thread has made me very worried.....we're scheduled to do our unknowns in a couple of weeks but we haven't done any of this stuff you are all posting about....we've only done...
  22. Frustrated Pre Nursing student!!!

    Like the above posters said...getting your LPN first will take even longer. I had to take that road due to financial reasons. Even though I'm an LPN, I still have to take the required pre requisites...
  23. Does Anatomy get any easier?

    To answer your question yes and no :) in my personal opinion it depends on the system your studying. For example, I breezed through the endocrine system but had to study much harder for the...
  24. What's the furthest you had to travel for a clinical?

    When I was in school my furthest clinical site was literally 5 minutes away. I lived right down the street. I always got their early though anyway. I'm sorry you have to drive so far but it will be...
  25. Thinking about becoming an RN

    Well I'm not an RN, I am an LPN. But I am currently taking my last semester of pre reqs for a bridge program. You said you haven't completed any general classes first. I don't know of any schools that...
