Nursing Students LPN/LVN Students

Hello all , we started on 5-26-09 with 66 students . We are currently in the 3rd level ( there's 4 levels) and sadly we are down to 22 students, I was so surprised that so many people dropped some due to grades and some personal reasons . I was just wondering if u all have this problem at your school or is it just mine. We don't graduate until 9-1-10 but at the rate we're going we could have our graduation ceremony in a telephone booth.

Step_in_future, this is a bit of advice for you since you are about to start a nursing program...

1. act professional

2. spell check your postings ( you have multiple spelling and grammar errors )

3. everything does not have to be "hehehe"

I am probally stepping out of bounds, but have noticed this on several of your postings...

Christine2009,

You should also Spell-Check before you post.... "Probally" is one of your spelling errors! :nurse:

Correctly capitalizing your bullet points might also be a good idea.

We started our LPN with 40 students and graduated 26. When the RN year started we were again up to 41 with a lot of new transition students. We were down to 19 as of the end of the fall 2009 semester. This semester we have 20 starting (gained one who failed this semester last year). At the rate we're going we could join the OP in the telephone booth. And we are only 1 week into the spring semester. It really does humble you and makes you feel like you are constantly walking on egg shells. Just keep thinking 15 more weeks to graduation, just keep my head above water for 15 more weeks.

Our class started with 31 in September now down to 16 students. Mostly due to failing out. The class that just graduated had 30 and only 6 graduated!!! Our school has a 100% pass rate on the nclex so the program is good, just really rough and the teachers are NO joke!

We started in Sept with 30 students, on day 2 we were down to 29 (yeah, someone left after 1 day!). We adopted another student in their place, and lost 2 more shortly after (time has been flying so fast, not exactly sure on the time line). We then adopted another new student, so we were up to 28 by the end of the semester. We lost another one due to grade issues over our break, so as of now we have 27.

Nursing school has definitely been an eye opener to everyone! If you don't take it seriously, you will not pass!
