1. NCLEX - PN on Thursday! Thinking about moving date up! HELP!!

   stephc1973 replied to RN_Pink's topic in NCLEX

   I wouldn't change the date! I was scared to make my appt for the test and as the date came closer I thought about rescheduling but I finally decided no matter what I was going that day. If you are like me, you won't ever feel ready for this test and...

2. Failed NCLEX-LPN three times

   stephc1973 replied to kimmie718's topic in NCLEX

   Most of my class ended up with 85 questions...one had 88 and another had 90. But one classmate had 205 questions....we all passed. If you go all the way to 205, it just depends on the complexity of the question and if you get it correct. I have re...

3. Failed NCLEX-LPN three times

   stephc1973 replied to kimmie718's topic in NCLEX

5. Why are students going into LPN programs?

   stephc1973 replied to leo8686's topic in General Students

   There are plenty of LPN jobs where I live...including hospitals. I wanted to be a nurse not a CNA. There is a big salary difference too and the scope of practice is NOT the same. Becoming a LPN was the quickest way to be a nurse and start working an...

   stephc1973 replied to Sarah.m's topic in NCLEX

   My school used ATI too. For me, ATI was the only study material I needed. Maybe reading the med-surg ATI book and the fundamentals ATI book again would be helpful...I felt that ATI prepared me for the NCLEX, Good luck! You can do it. Where there i...

7. Failed NCLEX PN, desperately need help :(

   stephc1973 replied to marshmallow_fluff86's topic in NCLEX

   I took and passed the nclex-pn on 9/16/11. I didn't really study for the test but we used ATI all throughout the program. I think ATI is the best to study from...or it seemed so for me. ATI really prepared me for the test. Good luck next time.

   stephc1973 replied to r_mari's topic in NCLEX

   I was TERRIFIED to take the NCLEX-PN but I scheduled it right off the bat after graduation and vowed not to change/cancel the appt. I worried all the way up to test time. I didn't do really any studying besides going trough my ATI books and looking...
