I am looking for help from fellow LPN students/ LPN's for some "real" insight into what LPN school is really like vs. what the admissions counselors are telling me, here is my situation [this is a bit long i'm sorry]: I am almost 22 years old and 7 mos pregnant; I am due at the end of May -- should I be accepted into the program [still pending based on T.E.A.S] I would be starting school around the end of summer, 8/25 I believe. Right now I am not working due to being laid off, and if I am accepted I would be willing to live off of my savings for the duration of the program [15 mos]. My program is M-F 8-2:30 which seem to be fine seeing my boyfriend works nights [3-12:30]. My two main concerns: Am I setting myself up for failure going into this with a newborn baby? What is the course load/ study load really like [how many hours per day studying, etc]? The admission counselors have told me to plan on studying about 2-3 hours per night and to give yourself about 4 hours on the weekend. Also, during clinical to add an hour onto each night of studying. This seems doable, but obviously a challenge for a new mom. Thank you so much for any input!
