I just wanted to start a thread for people who have been accepted into the LPN program at Greater Lowell Tech 2013. I have been accepted into the day program and just wanted to have a place for anyone else that has been accepted to come and have a pl...

I am a recent LPN grad and have only been licensed for one month. The job hunting process has been pretty difficult. A month ago I went for an interview at my job of choice. I have called back every week since trying to get an update. While waiting t...

Thank you again :)

@duskyjewel Thank you for the advice! :) I had my 2nd interview today at the preferred job and was offered the job! So I will be most likely contacting my other job and telling them exactly what you said. I am a bit worried about burning a bridge tho...

I personally did an ATI review (2 day, live). I felt like it helped me a lot. I learned a lot of testing strategies. Since the NCLEX is nothing like the tests I took in nursing school. She went over some content but majority of her time was spent on...

I say yes go for it. It will only make you a better nurse and also help you appreciate all the hard work CNA's do for us nurses. After all, the CNA's work is the Nurses work. I think it would give you a lot of hands on experience with patients regard...

I am a recent LPN grad and when I first started my program I was working 2 part time jobs working roughly 20-30 hours total a week. It worked for me up until Christmas break (4 months into my 10 month program) and I realized that I needed to cut back...

I really don't see why you wouldn't want to read the fundamentals of nursing book. I learned so much my first term in LPN school and this was a book I basically slept with every night. Yes, a good amount of it may be things you already know from your...

The PVT does work. I took the NCLEX-PN in MA on July 21st @ 2 pm. I finished the exam @ 4 pm. I shut off at 85 questions and I was not sure how to feel! So I went right out the parking lot (about 5 minutes) and tried to reregister and got the "Good ...

@kayyyyyd I pm'd you my email if you can add me. Ty.

@kayyyyd - I couldn't find it.

& @Hurryupandwork you better get your butt a good alarm because there is no being late! LOL! You heard what they said about locking the door. HAHA.

I just finished the modules all printed and ready to go! I am so excited for tomorrow. See you all then!! Do you think we will be there for the full day?

Vitiana and I sat in the back together the last few nights in the middle row. I probably talked to both of you LOL. What a great deal for that book Nakiwala!! I am going to look for that book soon. I think it will be helpful.

Nakiwala, where did you sit?!

Anna, You didn't miss too much from not going to boot camp. It was just basically a whole lot of test taking techniques and note taking techniques. The best thing about boot camp week was meeting with the former students that was what made it all wor...

Hi Renee, Congratz on completing the program!! And thanks for the advice! Did you use all of the required books for assignments and what not? Do you suggest us buying the optional books?

Thanks for the info Hurryupandwork. I have been watching the prices on Amazon and I bought two of the books from there already. I have free two day shipping with them because I signed up as a college student (its only for 6 months though). I found th...

Hey Everyone. I was just wondering how book buying has been coming along? I have been trying to price compare but I have had very little luck finding places that are significantly cheaper than the schools site. The shipping from the schools site is e...

Congratz!! That is awesome. I did not attend the medical term class. I will be attending the boot camp week though for sure!

kayd .. were you accepted into day or night?

Actually, I found out that you can use loans for books if you pay up front and have enough to cover the tuition, they will reimburse you the first week of school as long as you have a receipt to prove the purchase. Also keep in mind aid/loans are giv...

@Lizzy I bought it from amazon but I just found out about a site called half.com and they sell books cheap too (or so I have heard) I haven't got a chance to check out the books on there yet. If I find anything else I will share the info. Hope everyo...

I just purchased the book for the boot camp class the Test Success book on amazon it was listed as used-good condition but the book actually looks brand new doesn't look like it was every opened! :) And I got it for a cheaper price than what the scho...

Thanks for the info. I will try to email her sometime soon and ask her about older editions after I have some time to look into the books and what not. I will post once I find out the answer. Just because I want to save as much money as I possibly ca...
