  1. Lacking Motivation to Study.... anyone else?

    WDWpixieRN replied to carluvscats's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was totally burned out too. But I didn't want to take that test twice. So in addition to learning a new job as a graduate nurse and all the orientation and training that was taking place there, I...

  2. Qbank is really haRD..HUHUHU....

    WDWpixieRN replied to luvahmi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  3. UMSL or Community college

    WDWpixieRN replied to AngelaChanel24's topic in General Nursing

    Just to clarify -- once you get your general ed classes out of the way, you have only NURSING CORE classes left to take which vary from 6 - 11 credits per semester. Clinicals are merely a component...

    WDWpixieRN replied to AngelaChanel24's topic in General Nursing

    WDWpixieRN replied to RN28MD's topic in Medical-Surgical

  6. Same question 3 times on NCLEX

    WDWpixieRN replied to pupnurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I got the same med -- TWICE!! And I chose the similar "teaching" answer twice. I knew that meant 2 right or 2 wrong. From what I could tell in my med book, I chose right. But I was rather thrown...

    WDWpixieRN replied to Italia13 RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  15. Kaplan Scores and the Boards

    WDWpixieRN replied to MsNursingStudent's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I had a couple of scores in the very low 50's for the Question Trainers and maybe a 60-something % average for the QBanks. I don't know that I'd pay for Kaplan again; I think I'd spend more quality...

    WDWpixieRN replied to limaya2003's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  20. Learningext any good?

    WDWpixieRN replied to sweetmya's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I had done Kaplan and also Saunders' 4th edition. I paid for the NCSBN and only really used it once or twice. In my particular situation, I wouldn't pay for it again. If you're only using one other...
