1. 7 Social Media Posts That Will Destroy Your Nursing Career Before It Begins!

   who8mycookie replied to Michael M. Heuninckx's topic in New Nurse

   It's sad to think that some people don't innately already avoid these things for professional reasons. It's common sense; for ANY potential employment opportunity. Glad you posted this article, because it's a great reminder, even for those that are...

2. How I Passed NCLEX-RN in 75 Questions

   who8mycookie replied to who8mycookie's topic in NCLEX

   Hi watz, Statistics show that the sooner you test after graduation, the better the odds are of passing (just a tidbit that our school shared with my cohort and I). Quizlet.com is the only free website that I used to prepare for my NCLEX. It has ton...

3. How I Passed NCLEX-RN in 75 Questions

   who8mycookie replied to who8mycookie's topic in NCLEX

   Hi nurse1990, The RN Mastery App questions were, in my opinion, comparable to the NCLEX questions that I was given during my exam--- we all get a different pattern of questions, so there's really no telling whether or not you may perceive it the same...

4. You will all probably hate me for this

   who8mycookie replied to Lulu Belle's topic in General Nursing

   From what I understand, it's not a requirement to be a nurse to use this forum, so a few bad eggs may be ruining it for the people here who actually care to help. I'm sorry that you're experiencing that.

5. NCLEX - Pearson Vue Trick - message change?!

   who8mycookie replied to kristiamber's topic in General Students

   The computer scores your test first and then it is verified by an actual person at Pearson Vue. That's most likely what's going on. I found that information in the NCLEX bulletin for 2015 before I took and passed my NCLEX last week.

   It sounds like you work for or have worked for Pearson Vue in the recent past. Is this the case? Insider information is usually pretty substantial.

   Well I can't be sure if the 7 people who told me they were not required to put in CC info were lying to me, but anything is possible? Either way, I didn't attempt it. Too risky for my taste.

   I agree. It's a glitch. Every person in my cohort that recently tried it, had positive results and all passed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Since it's not an official way to get results, people should proceed with caution.

   who8mycookie replied to RNsRWe's topic in NCLEX

   Although I did not attempt the PVT myself, a few friends of mine did, but they were never prompted for CC info. PV would not allow them to go through with the first page of the registration. All of them ended up passing. I would certainly be leery ab...

10. What kind of stethoscope should I get for nursing school?

    who8mycookie replied to FLhusker's topic in Uniform/Gear

    I got a Littmann Cardiology III when I first began nursing school. I chose it because it was a lifelong career tool for which I did not want to skim on quality. PLUS, I knew I would eventually be an ER nurse, seeing clients of all ages, so the fact t...

    Imbatz, thank you! I'm happy to help. And that is GREAT about what Evolve is doing. Surprised they hadn't done it sooner, actually, but very glad to hear it nonetheless.

    who8mycookie posted a topic in NCLEX

    On Wed, 05/27/15, at 08:00 am, I sat down for the defining moment of my nursing school career by taking the NCLEX-RN exam. Although nervous, like the excitement one would feel on line for a roller coaster, I felt confident and somewhat calm. Neverthe...
