Thank you so much for replying! Your response was honestly pretty refreshing. People tend to say "Go for it, you're young, explore life" but they don't realize that these are all things one has to think about before making such a big decision. These ...

Yeah, it's very discouraging. I hope we hear back soon, even if it's a denial so we can move on with our lives. Good luck on your NCLEX @thecareerchanger!

Does anyone know when in October the Critical Care Fellowship is starting at Lenox Hill? Or at least when they're interviewing? They posted the job in late August and I applied then (8/27). I just saw they re-posted it a few days ago...but I haven't ...

He can take the NCLEX anywhere in the US, where it differs is what Board of Nursing he applies to for a license. I'm not too sure about NJ, but the job market in NY (especially NYC) is extremely tough for new grad nurses. I'm a new grad in NYC and I'...

Unfortunately nothing yet. It's weird because the recruiters at Hospital B are usually very good at responding! I did hear back from one of the managers from Hospital A but it's basically another waiting game. I'm thinking of following up again with ...

Thank you all for your input. I've emailed the NICU recruiter and am waiting for a response. My connection from my dream hospital also told me that one of the NMs said she will contact me soon!! I hope either of these lead somewhere. I'm just so exci...

Are you sure you're doing it correctly? When I took the NCLEX ~3 weeks ago I got home and immediately did the PVT. It was my first time taking the test/doing the trick and I had put a made up credit card number. I got a pop up that said "invalid cred...

I just graduated from nursing school a few months ago and I can kind of understand your frustrations. I'm more on the introverted side too and I'm sure what you're feeling right now is very debilitating and daunting. When I had my med-surg clinicals,...

They still haven't posted it it's been a week!!

Hi everyone. I just took the NCLEX and finished about two hours ago. Contrary to most people, I didn't find it THAT hard. Well, I found it to be easier than Kaplan, at least. I had a feeling it would shut down at 75 questions, and it did! Tons of SAT...

Thank you!! I knew it worked for like 99% of people but I was just afraid I'd be part of that 1%

Thank you, fellow RN!! :)

Thank you! Good luck on your test!

I passed!!!!!!!!! This is such a surreal feeling. Thank you everyone for your support :) Can't believe I'm a RN!

Honestly one of my biggest anxieties regarding the NCLEX were SATAs and other alternate format questions. When I took the Kaplan alternate format test (all SATA/drag drop/ med calc), I got an 18% and I was devastated. Most of my other Kaplan grades w...

I get my quick results tomorrow at 2PM! My name's still not on the BON but it hasn't been 24 hours yet. I also heard NY may take a while to put your name on the BON so I'm still waiting :/

You're right! The important thing is you're an RN now I will definitely update as soon as I find out. I'm so anxious!!

Thank you and congrats to you too!!! I still can't believe it's over (for now)

Congrats RN!!! I'll be checking the BON site religiously every day (haha). I guess I'm just in complete disbelief because it wasn't as bad as people say it was. I didn't walk out feeling like a complete failure. Can't wait till those quick results co...

I'm hoping so!! :)

I took mine today too! I know you're not supposed to study the day before, but I did for a bit. I also studied this morning and on my way to the test center. It shut down at 75 q's. It honestly wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. Unless I feel like th...

Hi everyone. Please bear with me on a long post. I'm taking the NCLEX for the 1st time next week and I have never been more anxious in my life!!! I usually don't get test anxiety and if I do it's never this bad. I've been studying for a little under...

Thank you so much for the encouragement!! I 100% agree! I realized I need to be positive and confident and that is exactly what I am trying to do from now until test day :)

Thank you for words! You're 100% right. I've noticed that once I'm tired, nothing sticks anymore. I definitely know more than I think I know, I just can't help but get anxiety over this!

Thank you so much!!
