  5. Psych nursing in California

    I'm an RN with 1 year of current psych nurse experience and was wondering if there were any pscyh nurses on this forum that could give some information about psych nursing in the California area. What are the best jobs, pros and cons of living in th...
  6. UPMC Shadyside

    I don't know anything about Citizen's but Shadyside is a great school. Very high pass rate on nclex as well.
  7. Nclex

    I'm glad Kaplan worked out for you. It's what I suggest to everyone. I don't know if I would have passed without it.
  8. Nclex

    I hope you did awesome and find out that you passed real soon.
  9. Nclex

    I'm gonna give another big shoutout to Kaplan. Their online question bank was awesome and had plenty of the questions you had problems with. It's expensive but well worth it.
  10. If you got around 100 questions on the NCLEX-RN come in!!

    2 days before the test I was still studying and doing Qbank questions. You may not have to review all the content but if you were weak on a certain area I'd suggest looking over it. For me it was OB/GYN and stuff like Addison's and Cushing's. I ha...
  11. If you got around 100 questions on the NCLEX-RN come in!!

    The second time the only thing I used at all was the Kaplan Q bank and review of systems book.
  12. Nclex vent

    Yeah it's costly but for me it was worth it. I wanted to make sure I passed and $300 is a small price to pay when you figure that if you fail again it will be another $200 to register again and then all the salary you'll be missing out on by not bei...
  13. If you got around 100 questions on the NCLEX-RN come in!!

    265 and failed the first time, 75 and passed the second time. Good luck!!
  14. Nclex vent

    www.kaplannursing.com is the website. You have to pay to enroll. It's expensive but worth it.
  15. Nclex vent

    I'm sure it might help but the online Q bank is really what helped me the most.
  16. Nclex vent

    If you end up failing I'd highly recommend the Kaplan course and online Q bank.
  17. The Nclex

    Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!

    You used Suzanne's plan and still didnt' know your stuff? You prolly passed. I can't imagine someone failing after 75 questions if they used her plan properly.
  19. I want to throw up!

    Congratulations!! Now you only have to worry about throwing up after celebrating with too much booze.
  20. I failed NCLEX-RN

    I failed my first time as well and the biggest advice I can give is to do as many questions as possible and focus on rationale. The Kaplan program was a life saver for me. Like I said though whatever you choose you have to put the work in. Failing...
  21. Oh my gosh I am in shock....

    Congratulations!!! I passed using Kaplan as well, their Q bank was great.
  22. i'm nervous

    The first time I only used Saunders and failed with 265 questions. This time I only used Kaplan and passed with 75. You can do it!!
  23. Suzanne's plan

    Go to her sticky thread. Click on her name in the message box. Send her a pm. Put your email address in the title. In order to submit it click the submit button.
  24. Less than 12 hrs til test time!!!!

    Good luck 2btrauma, hopefully you are now on your way home and feeling good about the test.
  25. i'm nervous

    The questions on the exam were almost exactly like the Kaplan questions. The Kaplan questions were much closer to NCLEX than Saunders or Mosby or any other questions I had seen. Many of the practice Q bank questions I had appeared in a variation on...
