   OMG, I just got off the call from BON haha! She told me that she just got an email from Pearson - apparently their systems are down. She told me to check back around noon, ~12ish. Ugh, the wait continues!

   Yive replied to lischka11's topic in NCLEX

   I haven't heard anything yet, I'm literally refreshing the license lookup every minute to see if anything's changed. I just tried the PVT trick again...still good pop-up. I've been so stressed out and anxious to find out whether I passed or not! Do ...

   Yive replied to lischka11's topic in NCLEX

   4/4 of my cohort found out their results within 24 hours on the BON site that they passed - VA doesn't have quick results either but then again, they don't need to since VA BON lets you know literally the next day...one of my classmates tried the PVT...

   Yive replied to lischka11's topic in NCLEX

   Just took my NCLEX today and had all 265 questions...felt utterly devastated and attempted the PVT trick around 40 minutes after the test on my phone. I got the good pop-up but still felt unsure. Went back home and literally tried the PVT trick ever...

7. I feel like I failed my interview

   Yive replied to Yive's topic in General Nursing

   Hi, thanks for the advise! This isn't an actual photo of me but an actor that I am a fan of - I wanted to use that instead of the default entertainment pictures that the site provided. However, I can see how it could be questioned - thanks for the i...

8. I feel like I failed my interview

   Yive replied to Yive's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you for the advice and I apologize for the late response! Graduation and family events have kept me busy and unable to view and respond until now. I forgot to mention that I did send the nurse managers a thank you email, for future reference,...

9. I feel like I failed my interview

   Yive posted a topic in General Nursing

   I recently interviewed for an OR New Grad Fellowship position at my "dream" hospital. After a lot of thought and OR shadowing experiences, I am 100% confident that surgery is my calling and I absolutely want to be a scrub/circ nurse/periop RN. Prior,...

10. Is there still a nursing shortage?

    Yive replied to Skippy97's topic in General Nursing

    I have the same question as you do and throughout the entirety of my nursing school career, they constantly tell us "There is a nursing shortage". The hospital that I had clinicals said the same thing - the RNs that I shadow would tell me how a frie...

11. End Goal CRNA: MSN, DNP or DNAP?

    Yive replied to TeachEm's topic in SRNA

    I have heard that some NP programs are really ambigious when it comes to accepting students, some look at GPA, some look at experience - I will be graduating with my BSN this coming May but my GPA is not much to brag about (I had some family problems...

12. How much do you make?

    Yive replied to LPNTOBE2017's topic in Job Hunt

    The hospital that my nursing school is affiliated with has new grad RN starting salary of $22, $23 if you have UAP/care tech experience. The average starting salary in my state that I'm aware of is $24, the more north you are, the higher. The hospit...

13. I'm So Over Nursing. I would rather work at Costco!!

    Yive replied to rnfrombama's topic in General Nursing

    I am a senior in Nursing school and in school, we are taught to be empathetic and that nursing is not a job, it's a career. The professors sugarcoat to some extent, how wonderful nursing is (they admit it's difficult but the patients are worth it, an...

14. Med-Surg first or OR?

    Yive replied to Yive's topic in Career Support

    I see, thank you for the insight - I'm currently at 80% of applying to the OR right after I graduate. I'm still hesitating because I'm just afraid of closing off opportunities. One of my clinical instructor was in the OR but switched to an ICU floor...

15. Med-Surg first or OR?

    Yive replied to Yive's topic in Career Support

    Thanks for the advice! I'll probably go ahead and do that. I was lucky to shadow the clinical administrator and was informed of an OR program that is offered for new-graduate RNs. Some preceptors I've been with tell me that there is a 'guarenteed' p...
