   RN-BSNheather posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

   Today I got my dream job as an L&D nurse. I started as a mother-baby as a new grad 18 months. I'm familiar with the postpartum aspect and my unit took care of low risk antepartums that needed to be hospitalized for one reason or another. But this...

3. Transferring to NICU

   RN-BSNheather replied to RN-BSNheather's topic in NICU

   The need was greater in Mother-Baby. Regarding everybody else, we have to be in our current position for 6 months before transferring so not too much longer regarding that. The manager was originally just the NICU manager, but mother-baby lost thei...

4. Transferring to NICU

   RN-BSNheather posted a topic in NICU

   Long story short. I'm a new grad who is working on a mother-baby unit. I really like it, but it's not my passion. I find myself getting bored. I get excited when I have a sick baby, it gets my adrenaline pumping. I've been in my current position for...

   I have $53k in student loans. My payments begin in June. My student loans petrify me. My plan was to stay living with my mom and pay off as much as I could as quickly as I could, but 3 weeks after graduation she died unexpectedly and with no other fa...

7. NCLEX DATE

   RN-BSNheather replied to RNfindingherway's topic in NCLEX

   I changed my date 3 times. First it was February 3, then February 24, then February 27. As the 27th got closer and closer I wanted to change the date so bad, but I didn't let myself. You've picked your date. Stick to it. You will never feel truly r...

8. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

   RN-BSNheather replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX

   I did the PVT trick as soon as it said delivery successful after my NCLEX on 2/27. I was still skeptical. Today I got my quick results and I PASSED. PVT works and is accurate.

9. help!

   RN-BSNheather replied to imis's topic in NCLEX

   Before I took my test I didn't believe it when people said "just study questions." But in my opinion answering question after question after question is the only and best way to go. The trick to passing the NCLEX is learning how to critically think t...

    RN-BSNheather replied to AngelAsherah's topic in NCLEX

11. Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

    RN-BSNheather replied to terri8's topic in NCLEX

    I took my NCLEX-RN today. Had 80-something questions and finished in an hour and a half-ish. I did the PVT trick as soon as it said "delivery successful" and got the good pop-up. I won't be completely at ease until I see my quick results though!!!

12. NCLEX 4000 scores

    RN-BSNheather replied to AngelAsherah's topic in NCLEX

    I did no content review. All I did was practice question after question after question. And I read the rationale whether I got the question right or wrong. The questions are very comparable especially once you get to the higher mastery levels (5 and...

13. NCLEX 4000 scores

    RN-BSNheather replied to AngelAsherah's topic in NCLEX

    I took my NCLEX today. I had just over 80 questions. I tried the PVT trick and got the good pop-up. I used NCLEX 10,000 which I think is by the same people and very similar. My scores averaged anywhere between 60s to 70s with a few 80s. The only ot...

    RN-BSNheather replied to lewisyeti's topic in NCLEX

    YAY!!! Congrats. I got 80-something and got the good pop-up. I'm still praying too. I won't be completely at ease until I see pass.

15. i took the nclex today

    RN-BSNheather replied to lewisyeti's topic in NCLEX

    I took my test today too. The PVT trick is still very accurate as far as I've heard and read. Everyone from my graduating class who got the pop up passed and those who went to the credit card page didn't.
