1. HOW ACCURATE IS THE PEARSON Vue TRICK?

   PinkEagle replied to Tamana02's topic in NCLEX

   The PVT worked for me and I just took the exam on Valentine's Day 2018. I did some research and apparently, if you PASSED the "good pop up" is 99% accurate before having to pay for quick results, basically the chances of getting a false positive are...

2. **PASSED WITH 75 Qs!!! PVT STILL WORKS! (Feb 2018)**

   PinkEagle posted a topic in NCLEX

   I took my NCLEX on Valentine's Day 2018 (that's how much I "love" myself!). The exam cut off at 75 questions and I left feeling fine but got on the metro to enjoy a nice dinner and broke down and started crying in public! I SWORE UP AND DOWN I failed...

3. Planning move to California

   PinkEagle replied to jnurse121's topic in California

   I applied to a bunch of jobs in Cali as a new grad but was unlucky, so I'll be signing a contract in DC. But once that's over, this information will be good to have! Thanks!

4. Low UWorld Scores/Assessments....passed NCLEX in 75!

   PinkEagle replied to nursetrish2000's topic in NCLEX

   Can I just say THANK YOU VERYYYYYYY MUCH for this post!! I had to catch myself from falling into the trap of comparing my preparation to others and letting the sob stories of not passing get me down. This is a great example of people still successful...

6. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

   PinkEagle replied to NurseNat17's topic in New Nurse

   I'm so confused about the self-identification page you all are referring too! I Already filled mine out at the end of the application and I got a confirmation email when I applied on 10/25. On 11/2 my application changed to "under consideration".

7. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

   PinkEagle replied to NurseNat17's topic in New Nurse

   WHAT!!!! I really hope that they are not biased against out of state applicants! I have no family or friends in Cali so I can't just move there for the sake of having a "San Diego address" without a job. Cali's way too expensive to do that. We'll s...

8. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

   PinkEagle replied to NurseNat17's topic in New Nurse

   DC resident here!! I applied to Sharp Grossmont Surgical Intensive Care Unit!! I thought it was so annoying that I could only pick one unit. I also applied to Scripps and didn't hear a peep so I'm hoping SOMETHING pans out!! My dream is to move cros...

9. RN working as a CNA

   PinkEagle replied to ImmaRNnow's topic in New York

   I'm not sure how it works in NY but in MD once you take and pass your NCLEX you are no longer allowed to work or apply as a CNA, so don't bother! Just start networking like your life depends on it and apply! My Hopkins coworker went to several job fa...

10. Should I leave this racist town?

    PinkEagle replied to ChutneyFries's topic in Relations

    Can I ask what part of the country you are in? I'm super curious because I'm a black nursing student interested in travel nursing and I would like to know what parts of the country to avoid. Life is way to short to deal with racist bigoted people!

11. UMSON CNL Fall 2015

    PinkEagle replied to PinkEagle's topic in Maryland

    To be perfectly honest, I ended up not really using that book and the med calc book we were required to buy was NEVER TOUCHED (such a flippin waste of $$$!)!! What I would recommend for you is to first and foremost find a method that works for you. ...

13. CNL Applicants - Spring 2016

    PinkEagle replied to anthroinscrubs's topic in Maryland

    In terns of books, I bought my books as cheap as possible in the best possible condition. I probably spent $500. Also the library has a bunch of Nursing care plan books, so I highly recommend you go through them and buy a copy of the one you like the...

14. CNL Applicants - Spring 2016

    PinkEagle replied to anthroinscrubs's topic in Maryland

    My advice: #1: Do not buy the book required for the NURS 507 class!! You won't use it! #2: if you can, get involved with student orgs like GNA, Nurses for Global Health, SUPER, you'll have the chance to meet older CNL student who are willing to help ...
