I accepted a job offer with a union hospital. I signed all the paper work, background check, on boarding, and everything else pre employment. I have been waiting for my license in that state for...
I am licensed in another state and am just waiting for my transfer license to be processed. They’re so backed up that they’re not able to get to my application for a few weeks. Do you think...
I have been at my first nursing job for ~7 months. I'm looking to eventually move on to an area I'm more interested in. I am trying to fix up my resume now that I have some RN experience but I was...
Another quick question - Can I reuse recommendation letters from professors in my applications? Just because I haven't told anybody at my current place of work that I plan on
That's fair. I just wasn't sure because I feel like my resume looks pretty empty without it. But if it isn't appropriate I wouldn't want my application thrown away for some dumb
Hello! I am a new RN and wanted to get insurance just to be 1000% safe. I know a lot of people (the director of my program included) recommended NSO. I get nervous doing things online so I just wanted...
Thank you all SO much for the help! I will be getting the NSO insurance then. Its only $45 for this year and the $100 a year afterward are worth it to me. The hospital told all the new grads that...
I did about 4 weeks of NCLEX prep. I didn't open a single book and did at least 75 questions a day. I used kaplan so I took tests ranging from 75-265. Doing the longer tests really helps build your...
You can't purchase quick results until 48 hours after your examination. Everyone gets that email around 2 hours after their exam :) And don't worry if you can't purchase exactly 48 hours later, mine...
Before taking an exam for licensing in another state also be sure to look up what licensing requirements are in each state. For example, NY requires your nursing education in addition to a child...
Absolutely! Nobody told me I could do that until I found out myself. It's better to just do things yourself because nobody will work as hard for you! Definitely follow up--and once they know your...
I completed all the QT (1-3 are non-passing, so don't go off of these scores). QT 4 - 65 QT 5 - 66 QT 6 - 68 QT 7 - 66 Readiness test - 70 I also completed 17 75 question QBanks. My scores averaged...
Contact your school and see if there is an alternate way to send your transcript by yourself via email. I did this and there is a third party my school used to send official transcripts. I put in...
Passed in 75 as well! Used kaplan exclusively and would do it again without a thought. The rationales weren't always the best but it gave difficult questions that made nclex feel super easy. The...
Officially passed! Definitely take the day before off to relax and don't overthink the questions. I used kaplan and their questions were definitely more difficult. Once I was reading the actual...
I passed!! Whew those were a long 48 hours of me second guessing myself!! I do have to say that the exam was much easier than I expected and I was nervous that I found some questions easy. I was...
Regarding the research questions--15 questions are randomly incorporated within the first 75 questions. Meaning you could get 5 live questions, followed by a research, followed by more live questions...
My test shut off at 75 but I cannot stop thinking about whether or not something went wrong. My second to last question was priority and my last was SATA. I honestly think I blacked out of most of...
Took mine on July 2 as well! It shut off in 75 and I'm beyond nervous. My second to last question was a priority one and my final question was SATA. Would you say thats a fairly good sign?? I had a...
My school took a while as well! I called the BON and asked if there was an address I could send it to myself. They gave me a physical address and an email address. I would recommend email as it...
I used kaplan not Uworld but honestly I think if you're doing pretty consistent on the practice exams they're pretty similar. I found it was fairly straight forward and not as confusing as some...
Best of luck!! Took mine this morning and now just waiting for results! I found it very straightforward. If you can do the practice tests and know your content/strategies I'm sure you'll be fine
So I took my exam this morning at 8am and it shut off after 75 questions! I'm seriously hoping I passed because the second to last question was a priority question! I'm too scared to try the PVT...
