  1. Lpn student aug 2013..

    I start in August too, I'm excited! :)
  2. Accepted on the spot?

    Just curious if your PN program accepted you at time of interview or if you had to wait? How long did you wait? Anticipation is killing me! :)
  3. Lpn jobs at clinics?

    Hey, I live in Massachusetts and I talked to a RN at Children's hospital that said a lot of jobs were being offered to LPNs in clinics. I didn't know that was an option, but after I found out I was pretty excited. That would be a great job to land! G...
  4. Reading strategies

    Maybe taking notes as you go, or hi lighting. I usually have to re-read things a few times to get it.
  5. Hello! I have an interview for next Tuesday for the LPN program. I know I will be writing an essay and taking a math test that day. Any advice? What type of questions are asked? I get super nervous and red cheeked during things like this, any advice...
  6. Sooo nervous! Interview next week for lpn program!!

  9. Accepted on the spot?

    Wow! That is a long process! My school has you take the entrance exam, if you pass you get a letter telling you to get x,y and z together and then call for an interview. On day of interview you take a reading scans test, a 10 question math test, and ...

  12. Sooo nervous! Interview next week for lpn program!!

    Thank you! I got a nice black blazer and black pants, and a cute top for under. I was thinking heels, but I may be more comfortable in dressy flats. I'm okay with the essay, just really nervous for the interview and math. Even if I know what I'm doin...
  13. Sooo nervous! Interview next week for lpn program!!

    Thank you both for your advice. I did get black pants and blazer, and I plan to look my best. I'm not great in math, but if I passed the entrance exam, I'm hoping I'll be okay. I know I will also need to write an essay that day, which is my stronger ...

  17. being out of achool for over a year?!???

    I graduated from HS in 2004, I went to college off and on between then and now. I took the exam in December and I passed! I studied from the nln PN exam book and took lots of quizzes online! Good luck, keep studying and I'm sure you'll do fine!! :)
  18. Can I become a nurse if I'm not great at math?

    I am terrible at Math too, and knowing its a weakness for me tends to make it worse. After failing Algebra 1 multiple times (mostly b/c I gave up), I decided to take it again before applying to my nursing program. Last semester I got a B+, and this s...
  19. Hi all! I just got my results, not the best but I did well enough to receive a letter from my school saying I can move forward with the next part of admissions. I know I am not accepted yet , but I'm hoping for the best! On the day of my interview I ...
