Question about LPN Exam in NYC

EvinsAngel · Mar 12, 2005

Im new here... So first.. HI to everyone....
I am going to be taking my lpn exam soon. I wanted to know if anyone thought review classes were a good idea. If so, does anyone know of any place in the NYC area? Ive found a few classes but their class dates are months away. Or does any recent takes of the exam have any suggestions, like what to focus on, what meds are high priority?
All feedback is appreciated

Hi Suzy...I can't answer your question as I am only beginning my LPN program on Monday. I was just curious to know what program you attended and what you thought of it. I'll be going to Western Suffolk BOCES.

Hey,

When I took the Nclex my test was allover the place, I received all the questions and alot the the kind like all that apply fill-in etc. The Nclex-pn made incredibly easy had some of the test questions and the test is very similar to that so I suggest that as a good study aid, of course I didn't find that out until after the test, just keep in mind maslow and abc's

Good Luck :rotfl:

I used Mosby's & Lippincott's NCLEX review books & mainly reviewed the areas that I needed to (by now you know what your weaknesses are). By the time graduation had rolled around I was broke & didn't want to sit in another class going over what I spent all year going over - I took my exam within a month of graduating so the material would still be "fresh". Good luck!

Okay Im still new so I have yet to learn out to "quote" .. hehe... But for the question asked earlier about what school I attended...

I went to school to be a RN, Long Island college hospital in Brooklyn, but unsucessfully completed the program.Ive been really hard on myself about it, so even for me to admit it to a board full of strangers was hard. But I failed in my last semester, so my alternatives were to sulk and waste money spent on the education i did recieve or take my LPN. I actually chose the first for a long time.( I finished the program last june). Im having a hard time with the application process, alot of errors made by the nursing school has lengthened the process a great deal. But im finally trying to pick myself back up, kick myself in the but and do it, and money has been a big incentive. ; )

But back to the subject at hand, of a review class. I have found it hard to find a lpn review, but have fould plenty of rn reviews. What does anyone think, is taking a nclex rn review class okay for taking the lpn exam?

By the way, thanks for all the replies received, very much appreciated.

Hello I am from Long Island Ny and was wondering where you did your first LPN course? I am looking to get into the program and I cant find anywhere on LI that offers LPN classes.
