  1. What Watch?

    I use a timex analog watch with a large face, second hand, indiglo, and military "cheat" times. I trashed the nasty fabric watch band and replaced it with a decent rubber one I found on amazon. It's done a great service through 2+ years of pretty ick...
  2. just finished the nclex rn an hour ago

    As far as I can tell Texas updates its website Tues and Thurs around 8-10 am. So, if you tested Monday results should appear Thursday. Wednesday test takers will have results the following Tuesday, etc. You can pay for quick results through Pearson 4...
  3. Can anyone verify Pearson Vue "trick" April/May 2013?

    Took the RN NCLEX on Wednesday, May 29. PVT "good pop up" was there one hour after I finished the exam. I just used quick results to find out I passed! BTW, my classmates who took the exam on the 28th found out they passed through the TX BON website ...

    As of today I've heard back from every position I interviewed for. Yesterday I received paperwork for the position I accepted. I hope you guys have heard back, too!

    As of today I have either had offers or was declined for every position I interviewed for. I received paperwork on the offer I accepted yesterday. I hope you guys have heard back, as well!

    It seems that many floors are making verbal offers over the phone, but waiting on HR to follow up with paperwork. Some floors play it more "by the book" and wait to make offers until HR gives them the go-ahead. Hang in there!
  7. Questions about Seton Versant RN Residency in Austin

    I don't have a rundown of the entire system, but I know that classmates have had offers from Brack 8, Brack IMC, SMC 6, Williamson 5, and Dell ICU. I know of one classmate who interviewed at Brack ICU last week and expects they will make a decision t...
  8. Questions about Seton Versant RN Residency in Austin

    Not to be a downer, but if you are applying for the June cohort and haven't been in touch with the managers your chances of getting an interview are pretty slim. Most departments are finishing up interviews. Many have already made verbal offers on al...

    Offers are being made right now. Multiple classmates have had verbal offers. I don't know anyone who has signed paperwork, yet.
  10. Seton Healthcare Residency Austin 2013

    I went to the open house, talked with managers, and applied to the floors I was interested in (all acute care.) I followed up with cover-letter style emails a week or two after the open house. I've had 5 interviews, some multi-step. I don't have an o...

    Does anyone know which brand scrubs are approved for the ACC program? I'm guessing Landau is safe. What about Dickies and Cherokee? I know they tell you to order from Total Uniform but it seems unfair to HAVE to order through them.

    Thanks for the info Radiation! I might try and cut my trip a little short to attend the Jump Start. If I can't, though, it sounds like I have enough resources online to make up for some of it. As for the Crocs, I'm pretty sure the issue was with the ...

    There's a jump start session? Man, these folks don't tell us anything. I'm out of town!

    I have a Littman Cardiac Stethoscope and I LOVE IT. My mom is an RN of 20 something years and swears by this model. If you want something less pricey the basic Littmans are great, too. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Littmann/stethoscope/...

    Ugh, I wasn't even thinking about dosage calcs! I did pretty well with them in pharmacology, though, so I should be ok just doing some practice problems. That's good to know about the vital signs. I'm going to practice on my husband more often. I rea...
