1. WHY do employers that give 2-3 days orientation require a month's notice of resignati

   sazola replied to Nola009's topic in Union

   I was on an involuntary suspension for over a year and then terminated for something unrelated to my job. Trust me when I say it is extremely hard to find employment. My previous employer won't give prospective employers any information about me and ...

   You caught him, good job! Your training as a hall monitor is almost complete.

3. Need help! I am a first NCLEX-PN taker and failed.

   sazola replied to jil77's topic in NCLEX

   I think the test is the same difficulty, just different questions. The problem is that there is an almost 90% first time pass rate and the pass rate is about 50% for those who repeat. that means that somewhere along the line people who retake are not...

4. failed nclex pn 3 times..need help & tips!!!

   sazola replied to blacklily's topic in NCLEX

   I graduated in early December 2011. I did nothing until February 25, 2012 when I purchased the Hurst online review. I watched a few videos on Saturday Feb 25 and Sunday Feb 26, and followed along with the PDF files the provide online. I watched most...

5. Hurst Review...tell me what you think ?

   sazola replied to DaddyO's topic in NCLEX

   I paid for the Hurst online review and I thought it was worth it. I did the Hurst because of the nursing content, but they also go over testing stategies. I watched most of the videos and a lot of what they covered was on my NCLEX test. $300 is nothi...

6. failed nclex pn 3 times..need help & tips!!!

   sazola replied to blacklily's topic in NCLEX

   I'm not saying that prayer won't work, but unless coupled with an attempt to learn the material I think you will not pass. People who fail the NCLEX only have a 50% shot at passing the next time around. You need to buy one of those review courses and...

7. Need help! I am a first NCLEX-PN taker and failed.

   sazola replied to jil77's topic in NCLEX

   I'm pretty sure you are only graded on what you answer. For example, if you only answer 100 questions in 6 hours the others you failed to answer do not count against you. Put thought into all answers because if you just click C you are only getting 2...

8. Taking NCLEX-RN on 2/28

   sazola replied to reginakrys's topic in NCLEX

   I too had one calculation and many select all that apply questions. If I had to guess maybe 20% of the questions were sata. Only a couple of delegation questions, several on isolation and protective equipment, a bunch of priority and assignment quest...

9. Anyone do the kaplan, hurst REVIEW and failed?

   sazola replied to luv2shopp85's topic in NCLEX

   I graduated 3 months ago and took the NCLEX today. The only studying I did was this weekend when I bought the Hurst online and watched most of the videos, except the maternity ones, and renal (because I ran out of time). I printed out the pdf handout...

10. My Fourth time... Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    sazola replied to Mazee's topic in NCLEX

    I hope you do too! I was a never a good studier and always a big procrastinator. It is a lot of money, but that online Hurst Review was the only reason I passed according to the PVT. If you were to watch the videos and do all of the work I'll bet you...

    I took the test this morning 2/28/12 in Tennessee and finished at about 11am. I attempted to register using the "Register" tab and entered in my information. After I added the schol from where I graduated, the date of graduation, and the State Board ...

12. My Fourth time... Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    sazola replied to Mazee's topic in NCLEX

    I bought the Hurst Review 3 days before I took the NCLEX. The videos are good and so are the notes. I did not view all of the videos on the main page and none of the 5th day stuff. I did not take any of the practice tests. There were a lot of questio...

    Make sure you pass. There is no readmission to the nursing program if you fail out of nursing I.

15. Warning about Columbia State.

    sazola replied to LolaLola's topic in Tennessee

    It is a difficult program, not impossible. Lots of people drop. The new rule in Nursing I is if you drop there is no readmission. Make sure you pass. Here is the class average of the spring 2010 class.
