1. Just took the NCLEX

   tdstines replied to Lori0823's topic in New Nurse

   I looked it up on the California board of nursing website and it says you can re-examine once every 91 days. I think you did just fine this time though. NCLEX is notorious for picking a subject and sticking with it. My friend had almost all OB/Ped...

2. Is the NCLEX a barrier that protects U.S. jobs?

   tdstines replied to Snoopd's topic in General Students

   I am a firm believer in equal opportunity, but let's just face it. English is our native language. If you want to come and play on our playground, then learn it. If that is the barrier that is holding them back from passing the NCLEX then there is...

3. Did I pass the NCLEX?

   tdstines replied to tdstines's topic in NCLEX

   I'll offer some advice. Think nursing process. Pay attention to the time frame. If it says immediately, most of the time you would have to assess first before you could move throug the rest of the nursing process. On the questions that seem like ...

4. Did I pass the NCLEX?

   tdstines replied to tdstines's topic in NCLEX

   Well, I'm sure you'll do just fine. I think that it helps a lot when you can relate to what your patients/families are going through personally. It brings your care to a whole new level when you can truly empathize! God bless!

   Oh my gosh! I PASSED!!!!!!!:chuckle I am just thrilled. I was up ALL NIGHT LONG last night pacing the floor and looking over books and then finally today at 10:30 I found out that I passed. What a relief. I just keep on writing my name over and ...

6. Did I pass the NCLEX?

   tdstines replied to tdstines's topic in NCLEX

   I hope that you all are right. I can't hardly handle this anymore. I keep trying to reason with myself that surely I didn't fail in just 75 questions, but I was very discouraged when I didn't know the answer to the first question. It was a drug I'...

7. Just took the NCLEX

   tdstines replied to Lori0823's topic in New Nurse

   I also took the NCLEX on Wednesday the 4th. I am on pins and needles here. I had 75 questions and most of them were on which patient would you see first and delegation and who I would discharge first. IT did cover all areas of medicine but I am con...

8. Did I pass the NCLEX?

   tdstines replied to tdstines's topic in NCLEX

   congratulations on passing. Hopefully in 24 hours, I will be able to say the same thing. What a cruel thing it is to have to sit here and wait. What is a Hesi? I've heard a lot of people talking about them and I assume it is something similar to ...

9. Did I pass the NCLEX?

   tdstines replied to tdstines's topic in NCLEX

   I would think, but let's just be honest. How many time in nursing school did you feel like what you were picking was the right answer and then it wasn't. I wonder how many people actually fail at 75. That seems pretty quick to make a determination...

10. Did I pass the NCLEX?

    tdstines posted a topic in NCLEX

    I took the NCLEX exam today and it was terrible. Everytime I would read a question I would think, that is a no brainer, this is what needs to happen. Without fail, the answer I wanted was never there . It was terrible. I graduated with 4.0 and I...
