Re: New Grads: What are your plans?
Well, that is how we did it too. Looked over the outline, took the tests, got our score, moved on if we passed that section, studied more if we failed it. At the time we took a review from a college professor, she was so good. I swear every word that came out of her mouth was on our boards. Not the exact words but we could translate the situations and knew the answer the board was looking for. When I took the test there was an actual score, everyone who took her review made over national score(over 2000). That was a big deal then, states like NY, Ca, Tx, and several others would not allow a nurse to get a license by endorsement if they did not make "nationals." Or, that was the story we were given.
I am sure you and the wife will do well on the test. Marshall is a very good school, you have had some good clinical areas to practice, and the NCLEX does not seem to want to see potential nurses fail.
