4. RN Endorsement to CA. Application status disappeared!

   GBRKG122 replied to ohhlala's topic in California

   I've been searching for further information about this too. I applied for my CA RN License via Endorsement at the beginning of April. BreEze listed my application status as "pending" up until today. Then the weblink you would click to view the statu...

   GBRKG122 replied to ns808's topic in Student Assist

   Hi NS808, I graduated with my BSN in May 2016 & was completing my preceptorship this time last year. I (and many other now RNs & fellow nursing students) have been in your shoes. I was a nervous wreck the entire time, especially administeri...

   I actually just found this great resource: State Boards of Nursing | Contacts and Requirements Additional, info is warmly welcomed! :) Also, wanted to include the weblink in case there are others out there who want to live abroad, might not practice...

7. RN License While Living Abroad & Not Working as a Nurse

   GBRKG122 posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hi Everyone! I thought I'd ask you before looking into each individual state's RN license requirements here in the U.S. I'm finishing up my BSN next month and am planning to move to Mexico. I'm planning to teach and will not be working as a RN, bu...

   GBRKG122 replied to AdiaA24's topic in General Students

   Thank you so much, Nikki for sharing your story! I know this discussion thread is from 2012, but it CERTAINLY has helped me. I just started my last semester of nursing school & while the end is in sight with May 2016 graduation, I am stressed.....

9. HESI Every SINGLE Semester?

   GBRKG122 replied to EarthhAngel2013's topic in HESI

   I agree with your post 100%, SBrn1. You must've gone to my nursing school ;o) 25% is worth entirely way too much in terms of the final course grade.

10. Best programs in Boston for a second degree? ABSN or BSN?

    Lots of great questions! Boston is an amazing place to study to become a nurse :) I've lived here practically my whole life and there are some really wonderful programs around the Greater Boston Area including: Boston College, UMASS Boston, Simmons C...

11. New Grad: grunt work or unique abroad experience?

    GBRKG122 replied to LuxCalidaNP's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you so much for posting, Kx556! Always love to hear from someone who is also interested in public health policy and social work as an aspiring RN I'm currently in my last year of nursing school: I'm a 29-year-old *non-traditional student* ea...

12. Failed two sciences and I can't get into a nursing program.....is there still any hope?

    GBRKG122 replied to mn00's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think it's amazing that you're reflecting on different options available to you; that's extremely resilient. If you know you want to be a nurse in your heart and mind, please don't listen to anyone doubting your ability to do so... Having been in...

13. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    GBRKG122 replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing

    This is such a great thread & definitely much needed! I completely agree with BeachyRN2Be that, if this were the NCLEX, "don't work full-time" would be an ideal answer choice in a perfect world. I sometimes naively think "wow! wouldn't it be so ...

14. Passed with 122 questions on second try!! Read me!

    GBRKG122 replied to GinabinaRN's topic in NCLEX

    Your supportive, encouraging post applies to SO MANY various components of nursing & life :) As a BSN Student, I find being confident makes all the difference! Definitely easier said than done for me at least, but it's always inspiring and help...

15. I LIED to a professor

    GBRKG122 replied to Peonies n posie's topic in General Students

    At this point, my two cents: you should focus on forgiving yourself :) You don't need absolution from your teacher... No one is perfect That is so heartbreaking to hear because you've demonstrated such caring, reflection, & passion. It soun...
