This might sound dumb, but I have a two hour round trip commute everyday in regards to nursing classes. I would love to be able to listen to my fundamentals book while driving. Does anyone know if you can buy Fundamentals of Nursing by Perry and Po...

Just wanted to see if any of you were taking Edukan's A&P II class with me starting on Monday? Also, any words of wisdom from former Edukan A&P II students of (moderator edit of name)? Thanks! --Marci

I just wanted to see if you were able to "keep up" with all of the information better by taking the LPN program part time (over 2 years instead of 1)? I have small children, so I enrolled in this type of program. Anyone with experience in the PT pr...

Hi All, I just wanted to see how everyone else was doing in A&P 1 this summer? I'm doing ok. I'm not sure about all of you, but her essay questions on the test sometimes throw me for a loop:uhoh3: Oh, well. I have a 93% average right now, but ...

I'll keep you posted. We have a new Dean of Nursing this year, so will see if anything changes. --Marci

No, there is nothing else you can do, Sorry. I'm starting their program at the end of this month. Entrance is completely based on GPA. If you did well with your last 12 credits, you should be fine. I think my GPA for the last 12 credits was a 3.8...

Butler Community College's (http://www.bc3.edu) RN nursing program admission is based on your last 12 semester hours of nursing college credit. Admission is ranked by GPA from those last 12 semester hours. You can apply up until December for next f...

I just wanted to wish you "good luck" on your first day of school Tuesday. I have clinicals tomorrow, so I wanted to wish you luck ahead of time before I got too busy. I hope you have a great day! --Marci

I don't know where you are located, but Minnesota has a nice LPN program. The lectures are online and clinicals are done in person. You can check them out at http://www.distance.minnesota.edu Good luck.

I've never heard of it (but I live in PA). However, why not check with your state board of nursing about their NCLEX pass rates? That will help you to decide if it is a program you might like to attend. Not all practical nursing programs are found ...

If anyone is taking microbiology with ccconline this spring could you please give me the ISBN # off the back of the text? I don't want to buy my text with the campus bookstore because it is too expensive (they only have new) and the tuition alone is...

txakolina, Thanks so much for the info. This might sound dumb, but did you have classes on August 25 or you left Wisconsin that day? I'm trying to figure out whether to apply to the October cohort or the May one. I really don't want to miss the "f...

When about did you have "bootcamp" during the month of August? Was it the beginning of August or the end? I'm applying to the program as well and I would hate to miss my kids first days of school if I get in. Also, did you stay on campus? Did most...

I just found this address on their website: 420 Rouser Road Building 3, Suite 101 Airport Office Park Moon Township, PA I think I will go to the open house as well. --Marci

No, I don't know where they moved to. However, I would be interested in knowing if they moved near the airport as well. If anyone knows, please post. --Marci

Does anyone know of any good LPN, associates, or diploma RN nursing programs near Youngstown, OH? I've been looking at a list of LPN programs in the state, but I'm not sure of which cities are near Youngstown. I have been Yahoo mapping some of them...

My kids are 13, 9, 5 and 2. I finished the first level of an LPN program and then just recently switched to an RN program. --Marci

Wow, we have a great deal in common. Even right down to the 4 kids! I actually though I wrote this post for a minute. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who didn't enjoy teaching. --Marci

I saw this news release the other day and I though it might be of some interest to those here. http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/google?ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20080401005225&newsLang=en http://www.rueed.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=news...

The news articles explain the procedure. The lecture portion is online, while the clinicals are on site. I guess it should be called a "hybrid" program because clinicals are still done in person. However, it is a more flexible program because the...

I'm thinking about taking Micro with ccconline for spring session 1. Does anyone here have any experience with ccconline's micro course? Any suggestions regarding the class? Also, if you have taken the class and still have the syllabus, could someo...

I have a bachelors degree in education with an overall 3.65 GPA. However, my school only used the grades and courses that were relevent to their program (ie, sciences, math, psychology, english, etc.) They then refigured my GPA based on those cours...

Well, I made a promise to myself that I would post my experiences once I start LPN school so any potential student would know exactly "what it is like". Before I give you the run down of day 1 of my program, let me give you a little background on me...

Can you transfer any of your RN credits to the LPN program to lighten your courseload? Or if you can, try taking all of your pre-requisites first so you can concentrate on just the nursing courses. Children make going to a nursing program hard. I...

Sorry all, but my computer has been broken. Hence, the delay. I finished level 1 with an "A". However, (and I hate to tell all of you this) I have decided to move to an RN program this fall. I think it is the best route for me. I really want to w...
