   Skrawberri posted a topic in Alabama

   Hey guys, I have a question that I can't seem to find a straight answer for.... I just graduated in May 2008 and just got my license this past July. When I graduated, I was told that in 2 years time, I needed 24 CEUs. But then I have heard others say...

2. Poll for those who have already taken NCLEX..

   Skrawberri replied to lpn2rnMay2005's topic in NCLEX

   1. How many questions did you take on NCLEX? I had 75 questions 2. What study materials did you use? Did you take a test review course? I'll be honest... I didn't study as much as some on here say they have studied. I started really studying 3 days b...

4. Any hope for us non-Kaplanites?!?!

   Skrawberri replied to LittleWing21's topic in NCLEX

   This was my experience as well. I passed with 75Q's, found out yesterday. Did maybe 200 questions a few days before the test, took the test, KNEW that I failed it (like everyone else, apparently), had lots of SATA and med questions. But I passed. No ...

5. Discouragement

   Skrawberri replied to sweetmya's topic in NCLEX

   I took the NCLEX-RN this past Wednesday and found out that I passed yesterday. I will tell you there is NO SURE WAY to study for this exam. I was a pretty good student in nursing school, ya know, mostly B's. I have a Saunders book that I kind of used...

6. And the wait starts...

   Skrawberri replied to Helping_Hands's topic in NCLEX

   I also took my exam at 8am today! I had 75 questions, too, but I have NO IDEA how I did. Every question seemed so random to me. I got alot of SATA (18) and alot of meds. Only one calculation though. I really have no idea how I did so I'm just going ...

7. how many thought they failed then passed?

   Skrawberri replied to aereo2002's topic in NCLEX

   I just got home from taking the NCLEX.... I was SO CLUELESS during the whole ******* test, that I have no idea how I did. I got 75 questions, 18 of them were SATA and I SWEAR that every other question was a med question!! Side effects, correct teachi...

8. Club 265: PLEASE PLEASE READ and give input! :)

   Skrawberri replied to juliemcd's topic in NCLEX

   Just wanted to add... I took a review course a few weeks ago and the instructor told us that when she took the NCLEX, she got 265 q's and was a nervous wreck through the whole thing, only to find out later that she was in a "test batch" of test taker...

   Skrawberri replied to BeagleLover2008's topic in NCLEX

11. Anyone Up For Random FACT THROWING??

    Skrawberri replied to CrazyScrubNurse's topic in NCLEX

    It is the sputum culture for a confirmation of ACTIVE TB. I got the fact from a review question I was doing online. I chose X-ray, too, but nope, its the sputum culture. Just thought I'd point that out...

12. Anyone Up For Random FACT THROWING??

    Skrawberri replied to CrazyScrubNurse's topic in NCLEX

    This is an awesome idea for a thread! 1. In prioritizing cardiac patients, check the pt with INDIGESTION first because that could be a sign of MI. 2. ABG's need to be placed on ice and sent to the lab ASAP. 3. If active TB is suspected, a sputum cult...

13. If you have taken HESI and NCLEX>>>>

    Skrawberri replied to CrazyScrubNurse's topic in NCLEX

    Yep, 70%. Thank goodness I made a 946 which equaled a 94.6 for that 70%. It was during our last semester so the only thing big we had that semester was preceptorship (240 hrs, sheesh) and a few seminars and a couple papers, which made up the other 30...

    Skrawberri replied to Skrawberri's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for the reply! Do you think MedsPub helped prepare you for the NCLEX?

15. If you have taken HESI and NCLEX>>>>

    Skrawberri replied to CrazyScrubNurse's topic in NCLEX

    I havent taken boards yet, but I've heard that the HESI is harder. But my gosh I hope so, the HESI I took was so ******* hard!!! I was sweating the whole way through it... Of course the HESI score was 70% of our grade!!
