  1. 265!?!?

    Jen, The number of questions has no way of determining your pass/fail status. I know many that had the full number of questions and passed. I suspect that having to wait 45 mins after a 5 hour drive...
  2. BSN does not mean better... Sometimes education is overrated!

    According to NCSBN: https://www.ncsbn.org/1237.htm Pass rates data collected show that national yearly totals in 2006 and first quarter 2007 BSN programs had higher NCLEX pass rates than ADN/ASN...

  4. I passed! Yay! Brand new RN

    Congratulations on passing the
  5. 75 questions and I am sooo nervous!!

    NC has another "unofficial" new nurse this afternoon. Thanks to Suzanne for her plan and all those here for their encouraging
  6. Winson-Salem/Greensboro

    I know that Forsyth Medical Center/Novant Health Group hires new grads for all position; I was offered ED as a new grad. Wake Forest Uni/Baptist Med Center hires new grads also, but preference given...
  7. who used, who plans to use, and are using - suzanne's plan.

    https://allnurses.com/forums/f197/new-revised-first-tip-suzannes-plan-195774.html this is a "sticky thread" at the upper half of this discussion
  8. How many got only 75 questions?

    Tested today, got 75 questions with similiar mix to the previous posters (no math, lots of prioritization). Finished test ~0945 and still feel sick. But the admin told me that she would not see me...
  9. I personally feel, and have no information to support this, that there is a difference b/w a BS+ADN and a BSN. Just as, taken to an extreme, there is a huge difference b/w a MS+ADN and a MSN. Think of...
  10. How long til you received your ATT?

    Yes, the NCBON need the CBC, school verification and your application to the board a declaring you
  11. How long til you received your ATT?

    ATT=authorization to test, basically a form containing the number used to schedule your test with PearsonVue; also must bring the entire form to the test center when you report for your testing...
  12. FILL in THE BLANK questions?

    As far as I know the only fill in the blank questions are math based. I think that you answer up to 2 decimel places. But watch for unit
  13. How long til you received your ATT?

    I agree. I would start calling sometime early next week. Especially if you were never told about a delay in the school getting the information to the BON. I have a friend that just graduated from...
  14. How long til you received your ATT?

    So noone is there at this time? Shame on them. The UNC 24 month program sent the info to the BON on the Monday p graduation (May 14th) and I had my ATT on the 17th. Like you I had all the other stuff...
  15. Slow Codes

    But nurses are also bound by the moral principal of nonmaleficence, as well as fidelity and veracity. So, if the CPR will do more harm than good, should we have the right to say that we will not...
  16. I am officially a nurse now

    awesome.
  17. Good thoughts please. Took NCLEX this AM

    Good luck to you. I hate the "select all that apply" questions. I remember in school how I would always do better than expected if I felt that I did poorly, and if I thought handed the test its...
  18. what are the best mens scrubs you have found?

    I like the design and functionality of the Aviator, but can't justify to myself to spend that much money on
  19. How long...

    The background check could hold you up around this time as many other students are being processed. I sent mine in ~ 4 weeks ago and it took ~2.5 weeks to come back to the BON and for them to update...
  20. stethoscope questions narrowed search.

  23. Using Propofol for sedation on vented pts?

    The "beauty" of propofol is the short half-life and the rapid onset. So, if a pt needs a sedation vacation, he comes off quick and if the pt fights too much can be put down

  25. Did you work as a nurse during this year? Would YOU feel comfortable stepping on to a cardiac floor after this time off? If not, I would advise you to find a slow, quiet general floor to reaquaint...
