  1. Immigration is a perfectly good reason to get a certification. I want to stay with my family, and if that is the only way the government is going to let me do it, then so be it. I am dedicated to nursing. I am professional, and I am passionate about ...
  2. I don't have TIME to invest... that is why I am asking the question - I wish I did, but I'm not that lucky.
  3. Wow some lovely judgmental comment... thanks. Actually, I have an immigration issue which requires me to get a specialty as soon as possible... hence the question. Sorry for SADDENING so many of you. "If you can't be bothered to do the work, then you...
  4. Hey everyone, I see that a lot of the specialty certifications out there require 2 years+ experience or so many hours or whatever. I'm wondering what certification out there is the quickest to get? Anyone know? The quickest I've seen is wound care I ...
  5. That happened to me on the florida DOH site. I was using the "look up exam results" link and it showed PASSED, while I had another window with Pearson and it said my scores were unavailable. Maybe an hour later, Pearson gave me the option for Quick R...
  6. Hurst QReview tests

    Those scores seem good to me. I used Hurst and Kaplan Trainers. The trainers can be found online for free - do some google magic. Honestly the actual NCLEX Qs were more vague than anything I practiced before hand, but definitely get your priority and...
  7. Can someone explain?

    Florida: You have to get you FBI level fingerprints done (at a local UPS) it cost me $85. Then you file an application on the state DOH website, I believe it was $150 or somewhere around that price. You concurrently create an account with Pearson Vue...
  8. Hurst video's NEW or OLD

    RIGHT????!??!!! lol Seriously, she was insanely annoying. I enjoyed Hurst as a review, but the practice questions were not like the NCLEX.
  9. Hurst video's NEW or OLD

    I used the old ones. I watched one newer one but the lady's voice was just so irritating. I just passed NCLEX on saturday. I think Hurst was a good refresher but I wouldn't say it was the main thing that helped me pass.
  10. Schedule it immediately. Use the test date as a goal. Create a study schedule. Get your study on!!!! Start with covering and refreshing your content base, end the last one or two weeks before the test just hammering out questions. Lot of questions, a...
  11. International/Missionary Nursing

    @CBrown12 Wow Cheryl, your experience is so inspiring! I hope one day to be able to do what you have done, perhaps on a smaller scale. I cannot imagine how rewarding it is to serve people in that "raw" way, without all the gadgets and gizmos! Thank...
  12. Class of 2013 anyone?

    May 2013 BAYYYYBAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY :) I see the finish line!!!!
  13. At the end of my rope...hate nursing.

    I understand you to a point. almost every clinical rotation I have loathed with a passion, and to this day I wonder if nursing is right for me. But, I chose nursing because it is such a huge field! There is such a variety of things to do, that's why ...
  14. Hi everyone, I am faced with the task of picking placement for preceptorship, I have to choose 3. For those who have completed this, or can advise on this, what area do you think is best to start out in? I've heard many say Med-surg or Tele, but I'm ...
  15. I have only seen 2 drop from my course, its a BSN 5 semester course. We're in the 4th right now and two dropped in the 3rd. One failed the semester and one left because she was diagnosed with cancer. My school is not brutal like many of the others I ...
