  1. Can "C, B" nursing graduates pass the NCLEX?

    Yesssssss you can pass the beast called NCLEX! Grades really don't mean anything when it comes to this test. I've read on several social media outlets of straight A students NOT PASSING! And, us so-so students passing on the first try with the minimu...
  2. Working Night Shift as a Student

    I just finished and passed my 1st semester of an ADN program. My schedule was, I went to school for 4 days, worked 2 days and played catch up on my 1 day off. Noticed, I said "I passed," really not with the grades that I'm used to. I was bummed at fi...
  3. Malpractice Insurance

    I have had NSO for over 12 years and it only costs me around $100 per year. My employer first required I have it as an LVN and now my nursing school does too.
  4. Tips for Surviving the 1st Semester of Nursing School

    Eeeek I start Monday! Books are bought, uniforms paid for, registered for classes. Let the MADNESS BEGIN😛
  5. Nurses: How far is your commute?

    5 miles, 10 minutes on the highway, 11a-7p M-F. But that will all change. I start school for my RN on Monday. 22 miles 1 way!

    "WHEN" you graduate, not if! You will succeed! 🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓
  7. Rolling tote

  8. West Coast University - BSN Program

    Kudos to those that went with this school or are contemplating. That kind of debt hanging over me would stress me out!
  9. Age and nursing school

    I laugh at "youngsters" worrying about their age and school. Pfff life happens different for everyone. I was 26 for VN school, now I'm 40 and starting RN school next month, BSN thereafter. I see my age, maturity and life/work experience as a HUGE plu...
  10. I feel so unprepared

    Congratulations!
  11. Should I retake B's in my Pre-reqs?

    I'd check into the schools that you plan on applying to in the future. Here in Southern California, L.A. area, schools ONLY take your first earned grade. Especially if you passed with a "C." So, it is imperative that you do well in those science cla...
  12. Concorde North Hollywood

    Ouch, it's doubled! That's crazy😲 Well, I actually just got accepted at LACC and will be starting next month.
  13. Concorde North Hollywood

    I blindly walked in one day and inquired about the surg tech program. Took what I'm assuming was the HESI test and decided to go for the VN program. I had NEVER heard of an LVN, lol!! The ease of the commute from Granada Hills was my deciding factor....
  14. Concorde North Hollywood

    Hi. I attended Concorde back in 2001. I graduated a year later. It was a good program then. The instructors were good and very helpful. This was a long time ago, so I know the staff and faculty are all different.
  15. Advice wanted, as an older RN student, what thing should I NOT do?

    Thank you everyone for your comments. I've learned a lot. I will take what I've read and use it when I start school in February. I originally thought that I'd be helpful with my classmates and offer my help, SO I thought! You see, I'm a 40 year old ...
  16. FINALLY ACCEPTED! @ L.A. City College

    With tears in my 😢eyes, I'm typing this so excuse any typos. I just got "the call" that I've been waiting for, for two years, that I've been accepted!!! If no other school accepts me I'll be starting L.A.C.C. for the Spring 2016 semester. I've l...
  17. FINALLY ACCEPTED! @ L.A. City College

  18. LPN/LVN to RN California almost impossible!!

    "Just - keep - swimming, just - keep - swimming🐟🐠....."
  19. LPN/LVN to RN California almost impossible!!

    Hello everyone. I thought I'd chime in while I'm here working a 11p-7a shift in home care and I need to stay awake lol! I've been an LVN for 11 years now. I graduated with honors in June with an associates in health sciences and liberal arts. A year ...
  20. Did I make the wrong decision? 2 year ADN vs. LVN-Bridge

    If only I could be in your shoes... I'm a frustrated LVN that can't seem to get in any program near me, so now I'm applying farther away to increase my chances! It's soooo frustrating to keep getting the "not chosen this round" email reapply next se...
  21. Night and weekend LVN to RN in Southern Ca?

  25. Kaplan LVN Assessment Test -HELP
