I recently applied to Simmons and got in. I have a friend who recently graduated from their NP Program and said although it was frustrating at times, the school helped her find her preceptors

I personally chose to wear business casual attire for orientation only because I knew I was going to be wearing scrubs for pretty much the rest of my life! I took it as an opportunity to wear something other than scrubs for the time being, but like o...
I have been a nurse on a med/surg/oncology unit for the past year. Recently, I had an interview for a job at a children's hospital, a job that has always been my dream. The interview went well and they asked me for my references. If I were offered th...
As long as you get some background experience in an area of nursing, it will come in handy! I've been working on an adult med/surg/oncology unit for a year and just had an interview at Boston Children's Hospital for a position on their hem/onc floor....

Hey guys! So I took the NCLEX yesterday (7/22) and ended my test around 130-140Qs. I walked out of there unsure of where I stood, but as soon as I got in the car, I tried the PVT and got the good pop. Hours later it switched to the "on hold" pop-up. ...
Unfortunately, I have yet to take the NCLEX. But I have been using Kaplan also. Never thought I'd get the 60% they ask for until the last two QTrainers (#6 = 67% & #7 = 60%). I'll make sure to let you know how it goes when I do take it!
That's considered a 60 on Kaplan which is good! They say to aim for a 60 on Question Trainers 6 & 7 because that shows about a 95% passing rate on the NCLEX on your first try! I got a 60.33% on my Q7!
Quick question: In order to pass the NCLEX, do you have to get above passing in each of the "Client Needs" areas or each of the "Categories of Client Needs" area? It makes a big difference
