I'm sure all nurses would love their nursing careers again if the RN:patient ratio was 1:2. That would just be heavenly and nobody would have a problem with working 12s. Watch out world, cuz imma make it happen!
Yes, thank you! I feel like a lot of people just come here to vent and post their frustrations. Granted, this is a "venting" post but it was definitely needed. I don't know all the steps involved with processing nclex results, but I'm sure it's a gre...
Oh the dreaded retake procedure. I am too familiar with it so I will help you out. After failing, there is a waiting period depending on which state you live in. In California, it is 45 days, and some states it is 90 days. That waiting period is the ...
Plan out a study schedule first. Make sure you can study for at least 2 hours a day (bare minimum), which you should spend doing lots of practice questions. Since you graduated last year, I'm sure you'll need a lot of refreshers (content review), I'd...
No problem. Here's a link to a good thread although it's a year old. It's a stickied topic from the NCLEX Discussion forum. https://allnurses.com/nclex-discussion-forum/passed-my-nclex-750555.html Good luck on your journey.
Nclex test questions vary from person to person. I had plenty of med/math questions whereas my friends got very few. I believe the Saunders book has the breakdown of topics included in the Nclex. NCSBN should have question breakdowns as well in one o...
If your test shuts off at 75 questions, it can mean you either did really really well OR very poorly. If you take all 265 questions and PASS, it means you did pretty well, but barely. If you take all 265 and FAIL, it still means you did pretty well, ...
I hope you took advantage of their Qbank to its fullest. Not sure how many questions are in their Qbank only package, but you should aim for doing ALL of them. I took Kaplan's premium package (courses and all), but I failed my nclex. Don't let that d...

So far the PVT has been 100% accurate for my 2 friends and I. Unfortunately, none of us got the good pop-up, instead we were taken to the credit card page allowing us to re-register. One friend did the PVT right after he finished his test (same day)....
I probably would roll the mannequin onto the floor. I don't know my own strength That last part is pretty reassuring, but I would be really nervous for the skills test because it's been so long since I've had clinical experience. Hopefully I can fin...
Thanks for the reply. Let's say I do get an interview for a CNA position, would it be wise to emphasize a certain level of loyalty if they were to hire me? Telling them I will work for them as an RN as soon as I pass the NCLEX? But in the event I do ...
I failed the nclex twice and in california, it costs $150 to reapply to the Board (BON), and another $200 for the exam at pearsonvue. Im currently repaying loans, so my savings are drying up fast! Is it possible to become a nursing assistant just wit...
To original poster, just out of curiousity, what job did you take up after nursing school without your RN license? If anyone else knows, is it possible to become a nursing assistant without taking certification test in California? I failed the nclex...
