   Isn't it a great feeling? I haven't stopped smiling since I found out I passed yesterday !! For those of you who are still waiting to find out, I'm keeping you in my prayers. Those who are waiting to test, prepare but don't freak out. I've found tha...

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to msnicole418's topic in NCLEX

   I know people who have taken every question and passed, and I've known people who have taken the minimum amount of questions and passed. Just a story about when I took PN boards.....three of us went together. I had the minimum (85 for PNs), one frie...

3. Poll for those who have already taken NCLEX..

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to lpn2rnMay2005's topic in NCLEX

   1. I had 75 questions (NCLEX-RN) 2. I used the Kaplan NCLEX-RN review book, NCLEX-RN 3000 computer disk, and the ERI Pre-RN test book. I opted not to take Hurst review because I did well on the HESI test. 3. Our SON did ERI testing for all five se...

   lpn2rnMay2005 posted a topic in NCLEX

   For those of us who have already taken boards, please answer a few questions that might help ease the minds of those who are still waiting to test or for results. I know reading as much as possible about other people's experience helped me feel a lit...

5. Shut off at 75

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to amber1142's topic in NCLEX

   Mine cut off at 75 and I had several 'check all that apply' questions, lots of prioritization questions, quite a few 'disaster drill' questions, no math. Both of my friends who went yesterday had gtts/min fill-in-the-blank, but I didn't. I passed my ...

6. Shut off at 75

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to amber1142's topic in NCLEX

   Three of us all went and we all shut off at 75 questions.....hoping that's a good sign since we all did well in school and all did well on HESI. I keep obsessing over stupid mistakes I think I made. Our state does not have the 'quick results' either,...

7. Cried (I mean BAWLED) all the way home from Memphis

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to LPNalmost!'s topic in NCLEX

   NCLEX works by giving you simpler questions when you miss one, so in essence, the more you miss, the more questions you will probably have. I shut off at 85 (7 years ago when I took it) and passed it. I've always been told that that meant that I did ...

8. What do/did you say when...

   lpn2rnMay2005 replied to Nalini's topic in LPN/LVN

   I've been an LPN for almost 8 years now. Trust me, the comments like, "Why don't you go back to school to be a real nurse" and "Why didn't you just become an RN?" were NOT the motivation I needed to actually start my BSN program. The idiot RN DON I w...

9. Recommendations for NCLEX-RN review books?

   lpn2rnMay2005 posted a topic in General Students

   I am looking for recommendations for NCLEX-RN review books. I recently purchased "NCLEX-RN Questions & Answers Made Incredibly Easy". I really like the book but find that it seems a bit simple in some subjects. Four of us nursing students are try...

10. Help me come up with an idea for a nursing school t-shirt

    lpn2rnMay2005 replied to lpn2rnMay2005's topic in General Nursing

    I really like this idea. I'm sure we could really play with it to come up with something individualized, like somehow play our school mascot or our school of nursing into it......hmmmm....thanks for getting my creative wheels turning. So much theory ...

11. Help me come up with an idea for a nursing school t-shirt

    lpn2rnMay2005 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Keep in mind that this has to be approved by our School of Nursing, so it can't really reflect what you sometimes might have thought about nursing school . We always come up with a t-shirt every semester but our creative student that always comes up...

12. Nursing Wearing Sandals To Work?????eeeeeeeekkkkk!!!

    lpn2rnMay2005 replied to proudmommielpn's topic in General Nursing

    That's all I can say..........ewwwwwww! Not only do you have to think about your foot germs spreading around, and who knows what landing on your feet (YUCK), but what sick person do you know that wants to look at someone's nappy feet?!? Gross!!!!

13. very rude fellow student

    lpn2rnMay2005 replied to CVnurse08's topic in General Nursing

    to let me know just exactly where it is that BSNs make 100K!?! I need to know so I can run out and put in an application NOW! There is always a "know it all" in the nursing class. Just snicker to yourself knowing that she will soon get her come-uppan...
