1. Just got My ATT

   Datastream replied to WildcatFanRN's topic in NCLEX

   I felt the more beneficial part of the Kaplan review course is the online component that they provide you vs. the in class portion. Plus just keep looking for a new test time daily and should pop up as people change their days and times more frequen...

3. calculation question

   Datastream replied to mzthang2260's topic in General Students

   I would agree that your 0.2g is grams not grains. But if it is grains than 60 grains being 60gr = 1mg. and if it is 0.2 grams than it it would be equal to 0.200mg

   Datastream replied to justme1972's topic in General Students

   I have noticed that some of the girls I went to school with Peaches brand were pretty substantially made. I personally have like Iguanamed scrubs there fabric blends feel best to me.

6. Gay male nurse stereotype?

   Datastream replied to greygooseuria's topic in Male Students

   I don't receive the gay stereotype from people when they ask what I do. Although what seems to drive the questions are the gross factor. I'm surprised how many people equate nursing with a$$ wiping and bodily fluid cleanup. I'm always a little perpl...

7. Tell me your GPA. Just wanna compare

   Datastream replied to mahkev2000's topic in Male Students

   I entered with a 3.375 and left at a 3.75 I had raised it as high as 3.85. Be careful to not get a B a in your 9-10 credit classes if your a GPA hound, as they can really drag you down.

8. Pharmacology and the Nclex?

   Datastream replied to PACIFICWHALES's topic in NCLEX

   In my opinion you should know your classes and prefixes and suffixes. A lot of people that I went to school with are just testing and the one common thing that they all have shared is that they were presented with an awful lot of pharm questions. Som...

9. Associates or Bachelors?

   Datastream replied to mickjordmoll's topic in ADN/BSN

   Great advice! I recently finished my ADN program and we have a one year add-on for BSN that I have been contemplating doing this year, or waiting one additional year to complete.

10. How did you react to your first code?

    Datastream replied to AZcardiacRN's topic in General Nursing

    The first code that I participated in I ended up giving chest compressions. It was the first time that I had ever performed CPR on a real person. At first I found it hard to get into the groove right at the start. Luckily I had an very nice and expe...

11. Do you count resps every time you do vitals?

    Datastream replied to GardenDove's topic in General Nursing

    I think where you see repetitive numbers are when individuals only count the respirations over 10 seconds and multiply. In 10 seconds most people only breathe 3, 4, or 5 times and this would reflect certain caregivers charting their patients only see...

12. 265 questions on nclex bad or good?

    Datastream replied to surgeryrn's topic in NCLEX

    Good luck to you. When I was taking the HESI's in school we had to maintain an academic standard which I fell below 2 out of 15 times and the second time it made me really search for motivation to be prepared. I hope that you do well. I felt awful wi...

13. 265 questions on nclex bad or good?

    Datastream replied to surgeryrn's topic in NCLEX

    I think 265 just feels bad... I tested yesterday and felt like I was holding my own up through 150. From there on out I really felt that it was an uphill battle. I had so many Pharm questions. I left feeling pretty bummed out. I'm keeping my hopes up...

    Thank you for posting this, as I have came across information that I had tucked away that I would have been bound to forget
