  2. FAQs About the Next Generation NCLEX (NGN)

    I am using Archer/Klimek and various other sources to prepare for the NCLEX. My scores on NextGen questions are ALWAYS 30% higher than my peers compared to the classic questions. Basically, all of the...
  3. ATT Validity in New York

    Considering my answer further - why would analyzing students individually make sense from any BON perspective? Even if a student attended clinicals and classes - if the school pass rate was so poor...

    Hi Reyna Laura I went to school in California and now live in NY where I applied to take the NCLEX. If you read the linked article carefully, you will see that it doesn't use the word...
  6. NY BON Application Status Wait Times

    If you look at the Application Status chart on the NY BON site - it states clearly that in-state schools are processed in 1 day...which is what happened with your application. I waited 3 months since...
  7. NY BON Application Status Wait Times

    Just curious if you graduated from a school in New York or out-of-state? The timeline you received your ATT on is the usual time frame for in-state

  10. NY BON Application Status Wait Times

    Hi nurse0421 - Yes, I had graduated a while back. I'm afraid it's definitely going to take some time for you to get yours. If you read back through this thread, you will see that the average time...
  11. NY BON Application Status Wait Times

  14. NY BON Application Status Wait Times

    @canegirlrn Once they change the date (to May 10, for instance) - it can stay on that date for weeks. It is supposedly updated every Thursday, but I know it stayed on March 9 for a month and the same...

  17. Recruitment

    Frankly, this person doesn't seem all that interested in our opinions. She posted on May 16 and has not responded in over a month. Why bother posting if you're not going to give the courtesy of any...
  18. Medical Aid in dying

    I have watched that documentary twice (at least). It is very well done, has high production values and truly seems to sensitively explore this deep topic. I also highly recommend
  19. @chare I don't doubt you in the least. I was speaking of the "professional day" that most professionals work. What I am really commenting on is the fact that this practice is antiquated and...
  20. Most professionals do not punch time clocks. It is expected that hours will vary over time. PTO is allotted in a time-block at the beginning of the year. If someone takes PTO and only works 70 hours...
  21. Something to consider coming from the IT world is - they wouldn't dream of docking PTO for IT workers - primarily because their employees would leave en masse the first time it happened. I have...
  22. Although I am a new grad (RN) nurse, I have spent several years providing home hospice care for a variety of patients - mainly in larger cities. I have recently started caring for a woman who is in...
