NotAllThoseWhoWander you are so right about the attitudes tip. We had orientation and there were so many students that were in the RN program last semester in our new class. And the instructor stated that was the reason some are repeating and had to ...

Hello everyone, I also start class on this coming Monday. We had orientation on yesterday and boy was it a lot of information to go over from 8 a.m. to after 2 o'clock. But it was well worth it. We were given our reading assignments of 4 chapters and...

So true, I'm hungry for it. Just a tad bit nervous because I've been working so hard for this for a long time. I love taking care of people. But with faith I God said this was my timing. 8 years of trying to get where I'm at now. But congrats again.

Thank you because I start in a few weeks.

Like someone stated, out weigh your pros and cons. I too got accepted into two schools, but had to choose between the two. I chose lpn because one I'm a self paying student with a husband and five children, my three oldest are teenagers 17, 14, 15. A...

Going this route you want need certification. Just willing to see after. VA clients in a home setting. Everything medical wise is handled through the VA. The doctors, nurses, and social worker is all through them. No middle man. Go talk with someone ...

No, rent a house and make sure it fall within the VA guidelines. Hire people that are like sitters that don't have to be cna certified. The only training they would have to do is like so many hours of safety, must have CPR, and any other training you...

See if Wallace in Selma is able to help you also. I just got accepted into their Lpn program for the Spring 2016 class, but they also have a RN program for two years. Deadline for fall 2016 is June 1st and that 2.5 will get you in, all you have to do...

Also, look into doing VA clients. That's what I'm looking into doing once I finish nursing school, actually you don't have to be a nurse to do that. My friend works at the VA and there are many people whom does this. Start off with 1 home and 3 vets,...

Congrats

I so much needed this also. I start class January 11, 2016.

Yes, I was super nervous, while waiting to see if I got in. Still am, because I don't want to mess up . So far, things have been working in my favor, I'm a self paying student, my financial aid ran out, so I will be paying out of pocket. Found someon...

How do you pass time while waiting to be accepted into the LPN program? I finished all my prereq's this summer and have turned in my application to the program. The only thing is that the deadline isn't until November 1st., all I do is think about ge...

I got in not one but two schools, class for both start January 11, 2016 it's a 12 month program. I'm going to go to the school that I've completed all my preq's at. And have faith God will carry me through.

The school I'm applying to is very easy to get into. There is no waiting list. As long as you have completed your prerequisites, taken the teas test, and your gpa is at least a 2.5 or more you are in. The trick is that you must pay attention and pass...

Hello, Just wondering if there's any nursing students that attend Wallace Community College in Selma, Alabama. Wanting to know what to expect. I'm finishing up my last prereq's this Summer 2015, and planning on applying to the Spring 2016 LPN since...

Yes, they are top in the state. I've completed everything and application is in. Just nervous, because everyone i started my prereq's out with either got in the lpn or rn and flunked out. This will be a long 3 months waiting for the acceptance letter...

I was in the same boat you're in what my adviser had me to do was to take classes (easy classes) that I knew I would make either an A or B in to raise my gpa, because most programs look at you last 24 hours of classes that you have taken. With it bei...

Hello, I currently attend Wallace in Selma. I'm a pre- nursing student looking to be admitted in fall 2015. here at Wallace the Teas Test score only has to be a 50 or above and that's for the RN and LPN program. I heard that they test you exactly lik...

I totally agree with everyone else. Also, you may want to check the state passing rate for a school by looking on the State Nursing Board WebSite. That how you determine if that school is a good choice, you don't want to finish school and can't pass ...
