1. Select all that apply questions

   mmel025 replied to kathieb66's topic in NCLEX

   I used Hurst to study and I think it is sufficient. Have you done all the practice tests? When I took NCLEX I got around 60% on the exams so don't stress about your scores. Just review rationale and look up any material you don't know. After you take...

   mmel025 replied to kathieb66's topic in NCLEX

   Study the Select All that Apply as much as you can. When you take NCLEX the more you get questions rights the more difficult they become. I had many of those types of questions. One girl in my class posted on Facebook that she had 37/75 Select All. E...

   mmel025 posted a topic in NCLEX

   I'm a month away from graduating Nursing School in Texas and we took an ATI predictor the other day. I got a 50% chance of passing the NCLEX on my first time so it makes me nervous about my chances for passing the real test. I tried to go through al...

   I had two quick questions about clinicals. When I attended open house Mike Ashburn said that for clinicals students usually have to arrive an hour earlier then the scheduled time to set up, sign in, etc. So clinicals at 7:00am technically begin at 6:...

    I had the same problem. I had to request my blue card twice. I had my fingerprints done in Dec. and didn't receive my card until early this month. I'm not sure if you live near Austin (which is where the BON is located) but when I called I asked if I...

    I am pretty sure that we have to buy a computer from them. I believe its because we have to take quizzes/ assignments online and their computers have "anti-cheating" programs installed. I also heard that our new textbooks are going to be on these com...

    Just a friendly reminder to check your email (even spam because my email was in the spam folder) because I just got my user name and temporary password. I think you have to set up two different passwords, one for our livemail emails and the other fo...
