Hi everyone, I felt I had to post this!! I took my NCLEX on Tuesday and left feeling super down, I literally felt confident about maybe 20 questions. I cried A LOT and was pretty sure I failed. I did the Pearson Vue trick no less than 1000 times and ...

Hello! So I recently accepted an offer into the San Antonio Methodist Nurse Residency Program and will officially start August 19, 2019. A little background about me: I grew up in SA but went to college in a different Texas city. I don't keep in clos...

I'll be working at the Children's Hospital! I'm coming from 8 hours away but luckily have family here so I can avoid paying rent for a little bit. Have you done the employee health screening? I have mine soon and don't know if business attire is expe...

Hi nursing students/graduates! So I recently made a more specific post about the job I accepted but I wanted to make a more general post about jobs. I know how stressful I felt while applying and thought I'd try and give my own personal advice. I'm i...

Hello, did you have a peer interview at the meet and greet or did they call you to come in later on? :) If you had a peer interview that’s a good starting sign, that means you stuck out to them after the initial interview! Good luck, fingers crossed ...

That's awesome, congratulations!! ?

I can't speak for you but I do know that the situations that impacted me the most were the ones that I personally related to. Whenever I would be caring for an older patient who didn't have a lot of family members come to visit it always made me sad ...

If you got the good pop up at some point after putting in credit card information then it's likely that you passed, I really haven't seen anyone talking about false positives, only false negatives. Try not to be nervous and don't try the trick anymor...

I'll be working at the children's hospital! :)

Yes

I'm so sorry you failed but I'm glad that you are taking off two weeks. That good, get the test out of your mind for a little bit so you can grieve and get over it. Go over any information that you knew wasn't your strongest going into the exams. I'd...

The PVT pop up is not 100% but I want to say that if you get the good pop up it's likely that you passed! False negatives seem to be more common than false positives. Good luck!

Look into scholarships as well! There are so many available online! Some of them don't even require that you write an essay or anything. Good luck!

I would skip on rewriting your notes and listening to lectures. I tried both of those things at one point while I was in nursing school and they were not helpful. If you do like rewriting information, at least rewrite in a different way that is easie...

Congratulations on beginning nursing school! I graduated from nursing school this past May and completely understand that overwhelming feeling of being anxious. I agree with everyone above that you should always arrive on time. That's honestly just g...

I was actually offered another residency position here in my home state so I think not getting an interview email probably worked out for the best for me! Good luck to all of you maybe we'll be working alongside each other in Seattle at some point in...

That's awesome, congrats!!

No :/

It’s an online license transfer thing that is required if you’re applying to get a WA nurse license.

I luckily didn't have to interview for nursing school when I went but I would definitely count on them asking you why you became a nurse as an initial question! Just general interview advice would be to research possible questions and have some of yo...

The last replies to this post were from a few weeks ago but I wanted to chime in because I was recently offered a position for the residency and will be starting in August! If anyone else is going to be starting in August, let me know so we can be ne...

Not yet :/ I’m losing hope lol

You might be right about the delay! I have no clue how many people they'll interview to be honest ? Fingers crossed though!!

Yes, it said to do the nursify thing before sending the application. I just did it, do you remember how long it takes? Since everything is online it seems like everything should be instant lol

Wow really, that's good to hear! I thought it took like 6 weeks minimum lol
