I found that getting together with class mates helped me a lot and especially it helped set everything in stone. My program has tutors, if yours doesn't I suggest asking for help, they always told is if you ask for help then it shows that you want to succeed, they're not going to come to you because they want the student to have the initiative to succeed and better themselves. Also there are TONS of YouTube videos, some of my class mates benefited from watching tons of those videos, at least find one that helps and you can understand and watch it over and over. If your interested I have some notes I can email to you that I have that sort of makes things easier...you've made it this far, and it is possible. I've seen people do it, you just have to be confident in yourself!! :)

So I just got back from picking up my books, 20 total including drug guide, dictionary, and a few study guides..and just llooking at all of them kinda scares/stresses me out. Anyone have any advice for the first day and how to not become so overwhelmed.. Any advice helps :)

I have about 20, including the dictionary, drug guide, and study guides.

Anyone else getting excited? Nervous? Anything?

Our program comes with an internet based program that has thousands of different NCLEX questions. I've heard its really awesome! :)

I start my first week of LVN school on Monday (27) and I was wondering from some who are already in or who have graduated if there are any specific MUST haves or other supplies that were really helpful/essential for the classes. Anything helps! :)

I'm planning on having a regular like tote bag for my clinicals, but I'm in search for one for daily use. Im going to have a lot of books and am looking for a bag that will withstand all that weight and use. :)

I'm starting nursing school and I wanted to get some advice on which backpack would be best. Ones with or without wheels. I was interested in the zuca bag, but would prefer some feedback about someone who has used it. Any advice helps! Thanks in advance! :)

I'm so so so excited! Just gotta finish getting the rest of the uniform

Is anyone else getting excited/nervous for class to start!?! Haha :)

Here in Texas its a 12 month program, $5,500 and I got in my first try. Just had to make a 69% or higher on the TEAS. Not many applied and a lot dropped so almost everyone that applied and stuck with the paper work got in. Good luck!

1. I'm not sure when I start yet (orientation on July 12) && NCTC LVN Program 2. 1 year. Monday-Thursday 8-4 3. I want to be an rn but decide to go Lvn then transition to rn and be able to work while doing so. 4. $5,500 :)

Then maybe you'll meet someone at orientation! && at least if Z gets accepted you'll have him...I'm all alone lol Im reallllllllly excited too! I just have one varicella shot left! :)

Lol you'll find someone at orientation most likely! No worries. But yeah I have one more varicella and my whole packet is done. So ready for it to be done and for orientation :) haha
