1. Why Nursing Sucks...

   malenurseFl replied to pixiern15's topic in Relations

   My nursing experiences have not been the greatest. I have many family members in the medical field. All but one is looking for a way out. I'm getting out of nursing also. Thankfully, I don't have a Bachelors degree in nursing so I can still get stude...

2. What's up with all the 'failed NCLEX' posts?

   malenurseFl replied to Magsulfate's topic in General Nursing

   Use something like gradreports to see real reviews of nursing programs at schools before applying. A majority of for profit colleges aren't teaching properly. Leading to a huge number of people failing Nclex. The test changed in 2013, it became much ...

3. Nursing is the Biggest Mistake of My Life

   malenurseFl replied to almost_nurse's topic in General Nursing

   Starting in 2010, the military wants a minimum of 1-2 years acute care experience before you can become a commissioned officer. As for a job there are many places to apply outside of a hospital. If the area you are applying in has too many new grad a...

4. The 265 question question

   malenurseFl replied to malenurseFl's topic in NCLEX

   It's been especially difficult studying. Without getting into a big explanation, my R.N. school was one of those scammy places with low pass rates. This was my 2nd attempt.

5. PASSED NCLEX with 265 Questions

   malenurseFl replied to missbreez's topic in NCLEX

   Although I'm nervous about getting 265 last night, I'd be more upset if it cut off early. It looks like most people who pass get 75 questions or 265.

7. The 265 question question

   malenurseFl posted a topic in NCLEX

   Took my nclex RN last night. I went all the way to the end. I know all about the PVT. I did it for my LPN but, I don't want to check it for this exam. I studies a long time using Hurst, Uworld, and the Nclex RN Mastery app. I feel like the study mat...

8. New Grad Still No Job

   malenurseFl replied to TrustGod9's topic in Job Hunt

   Take any job you think you can handle. The reason I say this is, some employers have unreasonable expectations of nursing staff. If you live in a big city, you may want to apply to smaller towns. Smaller areas normally do not have a lot of nursing ...

9. Is Rasmussen a good school for nursing?

   malenurseFl replied to lor.jeann's topic in School Programs

   The quality of education for nursing at many Rasmussen campuses is abysmal. 50-60% overall NCLEX pass rates are terrible. I'm surprised this company is still in business.

10. The private college cash grab

    malenurseFl replied to malenurseFl's topic in Florida

    Im only very infrequently on the any nursing forum. I dont have experience with other private colleges so I wouldn't know if students were getting passed along without putting in the effort. Ive spoken to my classmates who passed and im unable to fin...

    Southwest Fl Tech Institute is one example of a school not teaching well. A pass rate of 33%

12. The private college cash grab

    malenurseFl replied to malenurseFl's topic in Florida

    Many of the RN schools in Florida are very new. Even my former LPN instructors were unable to offer guidance regarding private colleges. The state keeps official pass rates for every nursing program. No one tried to assist me in my choices. I live in...

13. The private college cash grab

    malenurseFl replied to malenurseFl's topic in Florida

    I graduated from a public LPN program. No one failed the NCLEX. The public RN program has a nearly 100 percent pass rate. RN graduates are not being taught correctly for pass rates to be that low.

14. The private college cash grab

    malenurseFl replied to malenurseFl's topic in Florida

    I was checking official nclex pass rates for all rn programs in the state for 2014. My school is maintaining 66 percent. Many others are @ 25 to 50 percent. Its down right fraudulent. I've just contacted a law firm and I hope to hear from them tomorr...

15. The private college cash grab

    malenurseFl posted a topic in Florida

    Due to the high rejection rates by public colleges for nursing, Florida has become inundated by private schools. They promise a competitive education to the public schools and a chance to be a Registered Nurse. The reality is the majority of these sc...
