3. Failed the nclex on the first try

   shamadi replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I’m sorry to hear this. Did you do quick results to verify PVT? Sometimes pvt can be wrong. Also, did you use other study materials besides UWorld? UW is good but I feel like some other prep...

   shamadi replied to jthoma43's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

8. Completely Green - Should I Begin My Nursing Career in LPN?

   shamadi replied to WildcatMLS's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I could not agree with retiredmednurse more. It seems like what you need to do first is to make sure this field is right for you before investing so much time and more loan towards a career that you...
