Hang in there! I know it's terrible but I'm sure you passed if it turned of that soon. If you're like me you'll hit a wall of shock when you find out you're a RN!!! Let us know when you hear the good news!

So I posted a few days ago that I had taken the NCLEX, shut off at 75, and convinced myself that no doubt I failed. I passed. I'm hoping to give some comfort to those waiting on results. If you shut off at 75 you probably passed. I know I know you ar...

Did you feel like your questions were extremely difficult and you guessed on many? I'm just surprised that they didn't get easier if I missed them... it's all so confusing. They say it's possible to fail at 75 but after all the schooling and effort...

I understand, my test was set up the exact same way your's sounds. I turned off and 75 and felt like I was going to be sick. I wanted to scream at the computer for not giving me more questions to better test my ability. I really think I failed it ...

Hello KarmaRene, I honestly think your success in an independant study program depends 100% on your motivation to do it...not just right now but every single day until you're done. I was a single LPN at the time and had just bought my first home. I...

Hello Pageantnurse- I'm having a heck of a time with this... will you private message me your email address so I can get back with you. I must not be able to reply to a PM since I'm not a paying member?

Pageantnurse- I guess I haven't figured this whole thing out. I don't know how to reply to a private message, don't see a reply button anywhere??? Anyway, I do apologize this is the only way I knew how to reply to you... I would be happy to send yo...

I needed that! You have got to have a sense of humor in this profession or you will go CRAZY! I would have beed disgusted at the time as well but come on this is funny! It's also about putting yourself in this patient's position- it was her only w...
Lost In Transition replied to csab's topic in Ob/Gyn
I felt the calling when I was 7 years old and was always in my doctor's office as a sick little girl. It was kinda something that I never really second guessed. However, I don't think that to be a good nurse you had to have known it from birth. Wh...

I do actually, here is what I have: English Composition, Intro to Psychology, Anatomy and Physiology, Sociology, and American Literature. All are unused and in perfect shape.
Lost In Transition replied to dsanto3's topic in LPN-RN
I understand, I think that all of the schools try to make it sound so easy just to sell it to you. I'm learning it's all about the $ wherever you go to school. Yes, I have been an OB/GYN office nurse most of my LPN career. I very much love prenatal c...

Well, I'm going to give you both sides of the story. I had been an LPN for 6 years when I decided to go back for the transition. The pros of being an LPN: you do have a great knowledge base to build on, you are looked up to by the regular RN students...
Lost In Transition replied to shannonrj78's topic in Online Learning
I am not doing either actually. I am attending Central Ohio Technical College. I have to go a few times a week but I couldn't get it done any other way. It's just my personal learning style that I need a teacher in front of me. Another LPN friend...

Hi Shannon, I was just wondering how you were doing with College Network... I tried it and was really dissapointed. I was unable to get out of the contract because I signed my name to the fine print I didn't understand. I did not have the ambition t...
