2. Nursing doesnt define you

   ktoepfer26 replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

   I love reading, watching mindless tv (especially Chelsea Lately, 16 and pregnant, and the Kardashians), and spending time with my family. I'm a psych nurse and take on all of my pts problems sometimes, so I have recently started running and swimming...

3. Did you work while in nursing school?

   ktoepfer26 replied to mamacashew's topic in General Nursing

   I worked as a bartender/cocktail waitress while in school. It was fun, good, quick money, and my bosses were great. They always gave me the busiest nights (Th, Fr, Sat) and were great when it came to exams and finals. It was also a great way to bu...

   Took mine 2/2 at 8 am. Had 76 questions, more than a few SATAs. I was shocked when I shut off at 76. I had only been testing for about an hr. I did the PVT trick and wasn't allowed to put in CC info. Tonight I went to the PV site which said my r...

9. just took nclex today

   ktoepfer26 replied to terrifiedtotears's topic in NCLEX

   Good luck-I'm sure you passed! I'm taking my exam on 2/2, so less than a week. I'm starting to get nervous, so what helps me is to go for a run or do yoga. Gets my mind off the exam for a bit. Let us know when you get your results.
