I am a new grad nurse and will be starting my first job at a hospital in a few weeks. I have no true to end goal for my career but I do know that I want to learn as much as I can from my job as a bedside nurse. I do plan to go to grad school but I am in no rush to do so. I have heard of those that I graduated with wanting to go to grad school as soon as possible. I have even been told by a professor that if we want to become an NP we should do so within 2 years of being an RN because after a while it does not pay to become NP because the salary would be lower than your bedside job. That is crazy to me! I understand money is needed but when does it become enough? As for me, I am very excited to start my job as a bedside nurse and to learn from all the senior nurses.

Hello! I just recently found out that I passed NCLEX on my first try in 75 questions, still can't believe it! I owe everything to UWORLD. I actually thought I failed because of how easy I found the questions on the actual exam. You just have to review all the rationales and do as many questions as you can without overwhelming yourself. You can and will pass!
