I have read many posts and my concerns are not different from others except that I dont have a 4.0 GPA, I had a 3.2. And I didnt pass Mosbys CAT-RN with a 99%, I got an 82% probability of passing the NCLEX. I also have been averaging between 60 - 7...

:uhoh3:My count down for my NCLEX is less than two days. I feel like I cant breathe and all I want to do is cry. What a sissy la la I have become. I am trying to draw strengths from wherever I can. I really wish I would have found this site last...

I just graduated in December and started orientation at my hospital this week. I have 200 hours of class and 600 hours with a preceptor. I also have a mentor ( from another unit) and 8 support group meetings. Pretty comprehensive new grad program....

Hi, Congratulations Adam and what a relief it is to hear from people who are enjoying their careers in nursing. I started this week but only in orientation and then I will be on the floor, ER 7pm - 7 am. The question I have is, out of all of you tha...

Hi Haunted, this is one of the reasons I got into nursing. I really wanted to get involed with Forensics and checking into SANE and death investigator. I think what your doing is amazing. Please continue with your posts. I still need experience un...

Southern California - $27.00 + diff. for new grad. ER doesnt get paid more but sign on bonus is $1000.00 more. Cost of living here is CRAZY, I will probably never be able to afford a house here, and I have lived here my whole life, so it depends al...

Hi I will start working 3 12-hour night shifts also in about 2 weeks. Can you tell me what is the best way to prepare for it. Should I try staying up all night and sleeping all day a couple of days before I start. Just looking for a smart way to t...

congratulations!!!

HA HA, It is funny that you put it that way, but I did feel like it was some evil monster that was waiting for me and I guess I did whoop its butt :smiley_ab Thank you guys so much for all your congrats. What a load off. I am on cloud nine and I wi...

I took my NCLEX today, actually felt confident, went for an early morning walk and to Jamba. Got there on time and my test shut off in 75 questions. Wish I could be happy about that. Everybody who passed said they either got multiple multiples or ...

congratulations. it is one of the best feelings, good for you!!!!!

I took my test in California on 1/30/06 and found out exactly 3 days later. My results showed up on 2/2 at 2:57 in the am. So I guess I am one of the few that found out in three days. Another one of my friends found out in three days too but for s...

Thank you so much Lady in Red. I was just getting ready to pm you to tell you I passed and there was another reply from you. I am so tired of crying and feeling sorry for myself. I just couldnt be happier. Miracles do happen. Thank you for your s...

One of my friends took her NCLEX on Jan 18th and no results yet, another took it Jan 24th and no results. If anyone took California NCLEX, can you tell me how long it took for you to get results. I know the wait is really going to make me nuts. Tha...

Thanks ericenfermero, The questions were too easy for me to be baffled and I am not getting much feedback on this thread so thank you so much for your words of enouragement. I cant get out of bed. I just cant understand with all the studying I did...

Okay so I stopped studying as soon as I got your post. I have no money for a movie, Cable got turned off, I dont have a car, and all my friends are freaking out about their test. So I went for a walk, read the newspaper and did my hair. Those are ...

Okay if I wasnt freaked out before I sure am now. I already started studying. Thank you for the bad mistake advice.

Thanks Johari I know you are right about it not helping me. My friends husband made her watch Star Wars when she started doubting herself, the scene where YODA talks about fear, when she told me that I was busting up. But it worked for her. I know ...

Well CONGRATULATIONS!! Two of my friends just found out today also. What a great feeling that must be. I take my boards Monday and I am freaking out, wish me luck. CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN.............

Hey nursekimmi, Dont worry my friends both found out today they passed. One of them took their NCLEX on the 18th and barely found out today. So your still good. But I think you have to have your transcripts in and your file complete before they re...

Shayna, I just wanted to say I will be praying for you tonight and I cant wait to get the good news that you passed tommorow. Thanks for your words of encouragement. It really helps.

I feel the exact same way. When I got anything in the mail from BRN or my ATT I just thought I would be sick. And while I am studying now there is so much information to retain. Just because I learned it in nursing school doesnt mean I remember it...

That must be an amazing feeling. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
