  1. 85 questions shut off and failed!!

    What day did you take your test? I took mine on Wednesday. It stopped at 85 questions. I thought it was kind of easy as well. Also, like you, I was top of my class. I've been trying to register for...
  2. And this is confirmed? Sorry, the madness won't stop. People taking the NCLEX will always try to find a way to see if they passed or not. Probably best if you either ignore these posts or just accept...
  3. I took the NCLEX PN yesterday morning. My computer shut off between 80 - 85 questions. When that screen went blue, I just KNEW I passed. I felt it in my bones. I came home, tried the trick. I got...
  4. VIRTUAL ATI!!!!

    My school made us take VATI. If you get your green light and take and pass NCLEX within 3 months, they'll pay for the test and licensing fees. So I took ATI to get them to pay for everything. I really...
  5. Hello, I'm on the last term of my LVN program and I am interested in starting on my prereqs for the bridge program. I especially want to finish the science classes online within the next 3 - 4...
  6. How hard/how much time is LPN/RN school?

    I'm currently in LVN school and it's not hard for me. Yet, there are a lot of people who really struggle. I guess it depends on the person. From what I gather from your post, nursing school will...
  7. Is it okay that I hate LTC?

    I don't hate LTC. I actually have grown to love the residents at the LTC facility that we have clinicals at. However, our clinical options are LIMITED. We don't have a peds, ob, or acute care...
  8. 80 or above is passing!

    80 and above is passing at my school. It sounds scary, it is - but it's going to be okay. I'm 5 weeks out from graduating and I've managed to pull a 4.0 for all terms. Believe me, I'm not one of...
  9. I DID IT!!

    Awesome!!!! I'm 5 weeks out from being done. I can't
  10. LVN-ADN Bridge - Prereq's Help

    Even if WIA does not accept you, you can get on the CTB program. The benefit to the CTB program is that you are not required to look for work and you get unemployment benefits for 1 year instead of 6...
  11. Don't know what to do about job offer.

    I would accept the first offer that comes in. You might wind up not having a job at all. At least, that's what I would do. I live in Los Angeles and jobs are hard to come
  12. Great provider...mean to work under

    Wow. Sounds like she's a miserable person. You're right. It probably won't get any better. Sometimes miserable people act out on those working under them. I'd find another job. No one deserves...
  13. Gaining weight in nursing school

    I've actually lost a little weight in nursing school. I use apps on my phone to count points and calories. I switch between myfitnesspal and Value Diary Plus. I haven't been as consistent as I should...
  14. 8 week microbiology course that requires no prerequisite

    I'm starting Azusa Pacific on May 5th. It has a micro class that is all online with a lab. It's expensive, however. Also, it's part of a certificate that covers all of the science prereqs. I don't...
  15. Can't find work :(

    Have you tried home health or hospice? I've heard of some new grads getting jobs there. I live in Santa Clarita so I'm not too far from you. I'm graduating in June and I'm nervous about not being able...
  16. What made you want to be a nurse

    I don't know. There isn't anything that made me want to become a nurse. It's just something that I've been always been drawn to. It's almost as if I have to do this to be fulfilled. Weird, huh? I'm...
  17. West Coast University

    I say, to each their own. As long as you go into this knowing fully well what you're getting yourself into. If this is your best bet for fulfilling your dream, then go for it. For me, this is just...
  18. LPNs in Jails?

    Um, ok. That whole "dashing" thing just scared me out of ever applying to a correctional
  19. West Coast University

    I considered this school for like, an hour. One of my classmates managed to convince several of our friends to consider this school after we graduate our LVN program. I just couldn't justify...
  20. Online Science Prereq Courses - Transferable

    Thank you, The commuter and woodsyny! I will look into those schools. I hate that Azusa is $8,000 for 4 classes. I can't do CalCampus because they don't do financial aid. I will look into Clovis...
  21. Online Science Prereq Courses - Transferable

    I just contacted my school and they will accept Azusa pacific. It's pricey but I need to get my prereqs done in a year. Best part - it's all 100%
  22. California LVN, I need advice!

    Try Facey, hospice, and home health
  23. Overweight and losing!!!

    I've lost 5 lbs since I've started school. I heard that nursing students tend to gain weight and I'm determined to not let that happen. A few of my friends have gained 15 - 25 lbs since we started...
  24. Hopeful!!

    Congrats!
  25. How bad is the job market for a LVN/LPN in California

    It's hard in CA. That's what I hear all the time and it makes me nervous. I'm graduating in June and I'm terrified that I won't find a job. But I've talked to some recent grads who have found jobs....
