    Adult-Geriatric Primary Care NP or...?

    I am somewhat torn, and I'm sure you've all seen this one before... but here it goes. In my 10 years as a nurse, I have worked with adults-- primarily older adults. I figured that adult-geriatric primary care NP would be the best route. Then on the o...

    I'm signed up for Advanced Pathophysiology and Nursing Theory. I'm still trying to find out what books are required for the coursers. The bookstore states they have no chosen the books as of yet.

    Galen San Antonio vs Hallmark College for 2013-2014

    At Hallmark, they start 3 times per year. I believe January, May and September.
  16. I took mine on Wednesday 1/22/2014 at 0800. It posted the very next day: Thursday 1/23/2014. Funny enough, Pearson still hasn't listed me as "passing" but the TXBON is all I care about!

    Failed NCLEX-RN Twice... Need help please!

    Our school used the 3-day ATI review-- which was pretty good. Then we got this "NCLEX" book from them that REALLY helped me. You can buy a pre-recorded "live" review on their website I believe. I'm a audio/visual learner and following the video and b...

    Galen San Antonio vs Hallmark College for 2013-2014

    I graduated from Hallmark College's program this January. Theirs is just an ADN program but I was an LVN and got a fair amount of credits. I actually went to Galen in 2009 when they first began their LVN to RN program in Texas. I left after 9 months,...

    Pearson Vue trick 2014 -still works!

    I took my NCLEX-RN on January 22nd at 0800. By January 23 at 0900, my license appeared. I did the trick and everyone else know that has taken it this year has done it as well. So far it's 100% accurate! :)

    Anyone get good pop up then CC Screen??

    I took my NCLEX-RN on January 22nd. In the parking lot afterward, I got the "good pop up". Then the next morning, less than 24 hours later, my license posted on the TXBON. I still don't have my results from Pearson but at this point in time-- it does...

    When will NCLEX results post ?

    I took my NCLEX-RN on January 22nd. Afterward I did the Pearson thing, got the good pop-up. They STILL don't have my results on Peason's website, but guess what? Less than 24 hours later, my RN license posted on the TXBON. Keep an eye on both of them...

    Confused and Overwhelmed!! Please Help.. NCLEX-RN

    I took NCLEX on January 22nd using the ATI NCLEX book. It is relatively short and gives VERY concise information. A friend of mine let us use her KAPLAN to do study questions. They're VERY NCLEX-like. Their questions are all typically the upper-level...

    HALLMARK COLLEGE- Lackland AFB

    Also, they don't have a bridge program-- yet. I'm pretty sure there is a plan to do it. They will, however, give credits if you take their LPN STEP test if you're already a practicing LVN/LPN. If you make a certain score you'll get a certain amount o...
