They will give you a packet detailing what needs to be done. I think I got mine during orientation. It will not hurt to renew your CPR because they will need copies anyways. Get that out of the way before school starts. Wait until they tell you what ...

You'll be surprised by how many nurses out there in higher positions with an ADN. Is that grad program highly competitive? Does it require BSN? I would suggest applying. It doesn't hurt. Taking BSN classes and being in that program might a little too...

I believe you did the right thing and handled it the way I would have. You called the doctor and informed him of the pts change in condition and followed his orders. Just curious was the patient with hospice care?

First of all take a deep breath. Many people test positive on their ppd test, some even due to sensitivity as well. You just have to wait until the chest X-ray results. Just make sure you have all the paperwork for your school saying its negative. If...

new grad in FL/telemetry floor/ADN/24.50 + $5 night differential i would recommend telemetry if there's openings

Don't be afraid to ask your nurse questions. You're there to learn and observe, to be hands on. I agree you should first introduce yourself and what your objective is for the day. Ask if she minds a student nurse. Introduce yourself to the tech assi...

Don't give up yet! I was on the same boat as you. I had all 265 questions on my first attempt, took 5 hrs & 40 min, & failed. But I stayed motivated and studied, I passed on the next try with 75 questions! If you read more posts on this websi...

Hi! I just wanna first thank everyone on this site. I have been lurking this forum since, even before I started nursing school. The information I gained from here helped me so much with everything! Hopefully my post can help many others too. First t...

I hope you enjoy it! :) According to the NCLEX test plan, the pharmacology portion is only 13-19% of the test. Keep in mind that portion includes "therapies" such as TPN/Central line questions too, not just meds alone. Of course you can NOT study all...

I only did Trainers 1-3, my scores were lower than yours and I passed. I really think that just by doing these trainers, you're gaining more practice & that's basically what you really need. Learning the rationales on the ones you got wrong &...

Mzoptimistic Thank you so much! Your study plan sounds like mine. You got this!! I wish you lots of luck. Let me know how you do & if you have any questions :) Pboychuk What’s your study plan? I’ll be glad to share some advice. It might be your...

SSHULER87, Thanks! What's your study plan? You do got a lot on your plate, but I can tell you have a great attitude going. Keep it up. Don't get too stressed out from that pressure. Have a set number of questions to do everyday before you're busy wo...

I did mine 30 minutes after. I read some posts where people did right after the test in the car with their phone. I say save you the anxiety & do the trick. GOOD LUCK!

Maybe you should do it again right now. What does it say when you do it, Does it have the good pop up? When you type in the graduation info does it lead you to the credit card page?

CONGRATS! I got the good pop up today tooooo :) I'm in denial just like you...

I agree with what srangel said. You'll be fresh out of nursing school. Don't wait too long to test. Of course take a little break after you graduate, everyone needs it. You already have the needed nursing content, so practice practice practice QUEST...

I'm taking it again in 2 days! So nervous, but more confident than the first time. I'm surprised your BON is taking so long. I took my last NCLEX on Mar 9. Have you tried calling them or checked the website? I remember checking like everyday to see i...

CONGRATS!!! I find myself lurking this site & facebook during study breaks too haha. I take mine in 2 days! EEEKKK.

Yeah I know, it's basically registering all over again. In Florida, I had to pay $200 for Pearson & to the BON for a re-examination application for $119. Once I was approved by the BON, they sent me my ATT. Good Luck!

CONGRATS!!!! :)

First of all, what did you already pay for? Did you pay for Pearson Vue or to your Board of Nursing? Every state is different. I re-registered & paid for my re-exam NCLEX before I got my fail mail. But I wasn't allowed to pick a date until I got ...

CONGRATS RN!!! :)

Whoooo CONGRATS!!! :) My second time around on April 28!

I can already tell you have some fight in you! Don't lose that & don't give up yet! You can try reading the Kaplan Strategies book. I rented it at my local library. It has some really good tips on answering tricky questions. Lacharity PDA book i...

I'm in the same boat as you. I did the PVT and got the bad pop up & cried myself in a little ball for about 2 weeks. Then, I got myself together & re-registered. For Florida, I had to submit a re-exam application to the BON & re-register ...
