    It's been a month since graduation and I wanted to check in earlier but the site has been under construction. Has anyone taken their NCLEX yet or how has NCLEX studying been going? I took the NCLEX...

    Yes we're almost done! A month until graduation it's going by fast but finding motivation to study has been challenging. I'm sort of burnt out and just ready to be done. I had my first interview last...

    terpturnedRN replied to 37changes's topic in School, College Programs
