1. New ER Nurse - Feel Like Quitting Job

   tbeck14 replied to xxMichelleJxx's topic in Emergency

   I started working in the ER in July as a new grad and definitely have had a few days where I just wanted to give up. Now six months in, I don't regret challenging myself by working starting out in the ER. My orientation was only seven weeks and was c...

2. 50-60 SATA questions on NCLEX??

   tbeck14 replied to monica842's topic in NCLEX

   I ended up passing! Deep down I knew I probably didn't fail, but that didn't stop me from playing the what if card haha. I tested the highest in my class on our ATI predictor but that still didn't help my nerves for 48 hours.

3. Anyone Only Use Kaplan Qbank and LaCharity PDA and Pass NCLEX??

   tbeck14 replied to shelby929's topic in NCLEX

   I passed! As you get closer to your test date, I would focus more on prioritization and management questions versus reading through the huge saunders book. You could use the book as a resource when needing to brush up on a topic. I did the comprehens...

   SATA are a weakness for me too, but during the test I was happy to see them because it meant I was doing ok. Remember if you are over the passing rate line, then you only need to get every other one right to remain there. I thought the SATA actually ...

6. 50-60 SATA questions on NCLEX??

   tbeck14 replied to monica842's topic in NCLEX

   I tested yesterday and feel the same way! I don't think we can understand the anxiety of waiting for the results until we are in the situation ourselves. Mine shut off at 75 and had almost 30 SATA.

   tbeck14 replied to shelby929's topic in NCLEX

   My school had us do the ATI virtual tutor and green light program, I used the saunder's review book, and did the free q bank questions on the Kaplan app. I haven't received my quick results yet from pearson vue, but my test shut off at 75 with 26 SAT...

8. Took my NCLEX 6-16-15

   tbeck14 replied to blameitonmyADD's topic in NCLEX

   I took my test yesterday and my experience was similar to yours. My test shut off at 75 questions with 26 SATA, 3 drag and drop, and the rest mostly prioritization or delegation. Every SATA that popped up, the better I felt. The more time that goes b...

    Last year there were sixty positions available but I'm not sure if they cut any this year due to budgeting. The Mayo cut their internships back to fifty this year
