  1. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    So I just failed my AANP cert. exam today. I am wanting to get the CE's done ASAP and reapply as soon as I can. When I looked on the AANP website, it said the CE's have to be done in your area of...

  2. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I passed! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I was quite nervous and I'm just glad it is over and the studying that had overtaken my life is

  3. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Sorry about the mix-up with the email. I just clicked on the little envelope at the top of the page and it allowed me to email you. I'll have to see if I have some setting blocked or something. Thanks...

  4. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Not yet, I have my exam on Monday. Getting to the "very stressed" stage of my studies. I know the best thing to do is relax but that is much easier said than done at this

  5. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    By my math, if there are 135 questions worth a total of 800 points, each one (on average) is worth anywhere from 4-6 points. Looks like we were both only just a FEW questions away!!!! As I've said, on...

  6. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    When I received the paperwork I found out I was 13 points away from passing, encouraging for next time but still frustrating I was THAT close and still have to go through the whole process over...

  7. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I mailed all my info in 2 days later, I did not wait for the letter in the mail (came about 10 days after taking my test). I would also say from my experience, don't worry about what "areas" your CEs...

  8. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    One more thing, for those wanting to retest ASAP through AANP, I did all my CEs the very next day and mailed them off to AANP. I received my authorization number approximately 3-3.5 weeks later so it...

  9. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    After clearing my head a little I think my biggest mistake, or expectation, was that there would be more questions on the more common disorders such as diabetes, chf, pneumonia, asthma, etc. Overall I...

  10. Failed AANP today

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I figured it may be easier to stick with the same test once you've taken it once with the hope that I have a small advantage because I've already seen it once. At least I have some type of idea of...

  11. I'm a new nurse who needs help

    ebkayaker posted a topic in General Nursing

    I've been working in the ICU for about 3 weeks (just out of nursing school) and I had a patient today who had a GI bleed and hepatic encepalopathy. Pt. was getting Sandostatin and the only effects I...

  12. I'm a new nurse who needs help

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in General Nursing

    That is why I love this forum. Thank you very much for your input. I did not get that kind of explanation anywhere I looked online (I don't know where I put my drug book so I couldn't look it up)....

  13. Just Took the NCLEX

    ebkayaker posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just graduated a few weeks ago and I just took the NCLEX in California a couple days ago. I know people say you aren't supposed to feel good about your chances after the test but I had to answer all...

  14. California Results

    ebkayaker posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Just took my NCLEX for the second time today and I was wondering how long it has taken people in California before they saw their name on the board's website. I know a couple people who found out in...

  15. California Results

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So I haven't seen any results yet. I took the test on Wednesday. I have all of my stuff in to the board. You have really heard of people not seeing their name on the website for up to a week?? I sure...

  16. California Results

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't know what the board's policy is about when they get the results on the net. I've heard of people getting their results online in a couple days and I've heard of it taking a week to see your...

  17. waiting is going to drive me insane..

    ebkayaker replied to luv2shop19mall's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just took the test yesterday, stopped at 85 so I'm a little nervous because I am scared I didn't do well enough to stop that early!!! I agree, the waiting is KILLING

  18. California Results

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Anybody else know how long it took them or their friends to get results in Cali? I know it could take a little while, the waiting is just killing

  19. California Results

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    One other question, are the results posting automated or do the workers at the board have to enter them into the computer? I've heard of people seeing their results late at night or early in the...

  20. Use of the whiteboard on the NCLEX

    ebkayaker posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Once you get into the room and you get that whiteboard thing, you can write anything you want on it right? They aren't going to assume I'm cheating somehow if I start writing lab values or something...

  21. Priority Questions?

    ebkayaker replied to ama27's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I got a book called Prioritization, Delegation and Assignment by Lacharity, Kumagai and Bartz and it is a great book. Well, I'll let you know how good of a book it is after I get my results but it...

  22. Use of the whiteboard on the NCLEX

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    But I wrote a bible verse down to keep me sane and reminding me that I CAN pass this thing! Good Luck! I like that idea. I could definitely use God on my side for this one!! Thanks for all of the...

  23. Any Last Minute Advice?

    ebkayaker posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm going to take my NCLEX for the second time on Wednesday and I was just wondering if anybody has any last minute advice or bits of information that they thought were keys to their success. I've...

  24. Any Last Minute Advice?

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well good luck to you too! I am hoping this is going to be our lucky week and hopefully we'll both be nurses in the near future!!! I think the best advice I've gotten is to relax and breathe!!! Good...

  25. Use of the whiteboard on the NCLEX

    ebkayaker replied to ebkayaker's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Maybe I should check on the website. I figured I would have to wait until I started the test but as freaked out as I think I will be, I thought maybe I would write down some lab values that way as I...
