1. How did you feel after you took the NCLEX?

   kgl_2014 replied to RunBabyRN's topic in NCLEX

   SSRM, I did try and got the good pop up. I had to drive 3 hours from my house to take it, so I didn't give myself a chance to check until I got to a friend's house lol. Registered Nurse y'all!

   I cried in the elevator down to the lobby. I didn't know how to feel. 75 questions and it cut off. Passed!

4. Bevill State Fall 2012- What to expect?

   kgl_2014 replied to Southerngal7's topic in Alabama

   Things are going really well so far. Hopefully it will continue the upward trend! :). All of our instructors are really nice and helpful and all of the fellow students have grown close.

6. The rolling backpack debate

   kgl_2014 replied to winterlights08's topic in General Students

   As for the young folk, who cares what they think? :) If having it will save your back (I'm 36 so I get it) then do it. The one I have rolls but also has back straps so I can carry it when I need to. Save yourself! LOL I am not the only one who ha...

7. Binders for notes?

   kgl_2014 replied to ChrisMarie09's topic in General Students

   I originally had a 1-2inch binder for all classes but that's out now. Now I bring a 1inch binder for each class. We meet in a lecture hall so we have these tiny half desks and no room for the big book and binder. I keep only filler paper in the binde...

8. Do you read the entire book?

   kgl_2014 replied to Tonks57's topic in General Students

   Our Fundamentals book is huge with tiny print but, I'm going to read it all for right now. One of our instructors tests straight from the book so until I take her test and see for myself I'm reading every word lol. I try to read one chapter and take...

10. Pre-reqs and working full time..

    kgl_2014 replied to taraer1206's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I was able to work full time during all my Pre-reqs. I took 2-3 courses each semester and took most of them at night. One semester for an example: A&P I (T&Th nights), Human Growth & Development (Mon nights), Speech (online). Try not to ...

11. Advice please!

    kgl_2014 replied to HisTiming's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I guess it depends on how tough the instructors are. I took A&P II and Micro the same semester. A day and night class respectively. The Micro instructor barely taught us anything but most of what we should've been learning we'd gone over in A&...

12. How are you preparing?

    kgl_2014 replied to unicoRNurse's topic in General Students

    I've cut my hair (easier for a ponytail). I quit my job but only because it would've required me to work while I was in class (I'm looking for a weekend job currently). I'm resuming my grocery budget because I'll be taking my lunch everyday. I've a...

14. Planner for school

    kgl_2014 replied to EarthhAngel2013's topic in General Students

    That's close to what I have. I picked mine up at Walmart for around $2. It has the same weekly and monthly breakdown as the one you're getting. Lots of room for writing. :)
