Hi, pyxie, and welcome to the site!

So, did you just start RN school? Don't hesitate to jump in and and ask questions.

[pyxie]

Yes, iam a brand new lpn and i just enrolled for my rn so i could work part time and take classes as i have realized that lpn's dont get paid well and id like to work er so getting my rn is a must

I started out as an LPN, also. Took me a while to get my degree, as I was having too much fun working. The 'earn to learn' bit works, though.

I was lucky that I was able to take a few classes at a time, and have a decent paying job. The final 2 semesters were a pain, though. Full time...PLUS work!

Hi, pixie! I did the LPN to RN bit, also.

Yeah I'm a little nervous I'm starting a new job soon on a telemetry unit kinda scary but I know I will get the best experience there from what I understand anyways so it will be easier to transition to RN. I'm sure I'll be on here with tons a questions soon enough!
