  1. [POLL] is it a reason to NOT pursue nursing anymore?

    I have to disagree with you on trying to understand anything in your native language. It doesn't help at all. I am bilingual. I moved to United States when I was 30 years old. When I decided to start my prerequisites for nursing program I could comm...
  2. I am not experienced RN (starting my new job on Tuesday!) but I think it's not necessary to start in med/surg. I know nurses that started in ICU or ER right after graduation and they told me on multiple occasions that I should do whatever I can to st...
  3. How long did it take you to land your first job?

    I got job offer one month after I took my boards. However, I have been working in the hospital since 2009 and I think it helped a lot. I was hired on evening shift :) I am starting next week!

  6. NCLEX Tips - One I Never Knew

    You can't write anything during practice test. Once you start actual exam you can write whatever you like. BUT if you need extra space you need to rise your hand and they need to erase it.
  7. Kaplan qbank or Ncsbn 3 week course ?

    I used both. Get Kaplan qBank if you can afford it. Good luck!
  8. New Grad States & Relocating

    I don't agree with you If you don't own anything and don't care about your stuff it's pretty easy. You pack your suitcase and you are gone. And yes, I have a husband and to cats (lol) and I still think it's easy. It's all about mindset
  9. My nclex and Kaplan! Dont stress too much on scores.

    I didn't have q trainers. Only qBank. My average was 61%. I passed with 116 questions. You will do great! Good luck!
  10. My nclex and Kaplan! Dont stress too much on scores.

    Kaplan is setup the same way as NCLEX. So once your screen will turn on you will see the same screen you saw on your computer :) I remember saying to myself.... "You are at home, you are taking another Kaplan test practice" Also, there were question...
  11. New Grad States & Relocating

    Small cities that are not very attractive? I just passed my NCLEX and will be endorsing my license to other states, and applying to those "less attractive small cities" :) I don't own the house, no kids, husband is willing to relocate as well... I a...
  12. Hurst vs Kaplan: My review of both!

    I used both. Hurst and Kaplan qBank. HURST is AWESOME for content. But don't be surprise if you see questions on the boards that are not covered by HURST :) I loved the video lectures. I remember days I was falling asleep and in my head I heard lectu...
  13. Hurst review

    I can print out the notes. I think there is free PDF that will allow you to read and print.
  14. FAILED NCLEX W/76 QUESTIONS, need help :(

    After taking test today, I can honestly say that Kaplan prepared me for the test. I purchased both: Hurst and Kaplan. Hurst is AWESOME for content review. However, Kaplan qBank is good for practicing answering questions. I had questions on NCLEX tha...
  15. What did you do the day before your test date?

    I went blueberry picking with my friends and then for hike that at the top of the "mountian" finished with swimming in lake! I planned to study but my friends said "NO" and drag me with them. I am so thankful for this! I think I would have mental bre...
