Wow!!! So I started my 11 month LPN program July 4th....last week was my first full week of classes. So far, we have had 9 exams with two more happening tomorrow. This is intense! I am working ahead in my A&P class while I have the opportunity to and I would highly recommend that! There are only 22 of us which is nice. Basically, we are taking three classes at a time with exams in one class almost every day and in another every other day. Craaaaazzzy! :)
Aspiring-thanks for telling us about your first week! I am prepared for a full load, but I have to be honest. 9 exams scares me to pieces!
Leenie-I also appreciate you sharing your program as well. I highly commend you and really love the attitude you have!
Jaycee-funny you should mention eating. During our registration and uniform fitting the instructor told all of us not to get a size too small thinking we would lose wait. She said she has yet to see a class graduate at the same weight they were before entering the program b/c the students eat due to the stress. I am in the minority and need to gain weight so I'm hoping that will be the case for me.
I started my LPN class in May and trust me it's no joke!!!!!!!! Theres about a quiz or exam every week. It's so intense. There will be periods of just sitting and staring and wondering to your self what have you gotten yourself into but after you snap out of it you realize you MUST GO ON!!!!! Keep up the good work everyone!!!!

I know this feeling all to well! The LPN program is very intense, we learn 80% of what RNs learn in 1 year. My dear, take this course seriously! When you start to get into pharma, maternity, and pathology you will know CRAAAAAAZZZZZZZy
Please don't call me crazy, but after reading all of you guys posts, I am somewhat excited to start my program! :icon_roll:thankya: I start September 4th. I'll probably be feeling like this after the first week though lol. But I've been reading the Fundamentals of Nursing textbook getting myself acclimated to the course beyond what I know as a nurse's aide. I trust that God will successfully guide me through the program and I'll pass the NCLEX and I trust the same for you all!
