  2. found the "weeding out" class

    L&D_2b replied to okie2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're right. That calculations course is a killer, but an excellent start to a nursing program. I took it last semester since ccconline teaches it also. It was only a one credit class, but boy was...

    L&D_2b replied to Sassy_Redhead's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There's a book I used by Mary McDonald made for LPN/LVN pre-entrance testing. This book helped me a great deal. I scored in the 96 percentile. I don't think I would have done that well without this...

    L&D_2b replied to melissaanneo's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  10. No luck in finding Nursing job.

    L&D_2b replied to brotherbear's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Since you haven't graduated yet and don't have your license, why don't you try to find employment right now as a nurses aide or patient care technician? I'm sure the facility you would work for would...
