Greetings, The best thing that you can do for yourself is to apply for another position at the rank you would like within your current organization, at a new one, or join the float pool. Every float pool is like an episode of Cheers, the unit i...

I think the first goal is just to be employed as RN with this economy.

Greetings everyone, I am writing because of the feelings I am having since taking the NCLEX on Friday. I am just BLUE and don't know what to do. I have received the good pop up many times. In addition, in my state when you submit your application ...

Glad to hear that I am not alone in my mixed emotions.

I took my exam 3/22 and had 75 questions. Checked my results via the PVT about 2 hours later and received the good pop up. My unofficial results became available 3/24 and it confirmed that I passed.

Just got my unofficial results....I passed!!

You would not see your name there yet until you had a license number through your state board.

@jringer, Thanks for your words of encouragement. I'll give advice once I receive my offical results.

Alright my friends, I finished my exam in a little under two hours with 75 questions. I did the PVT and received the good POP UP. I'll be waiting with baited breath until Monday to get the official results. Wishing you all the best while you are s...

St Claire, I think he is Canadian. I have seen the term CNO in research articles from Canadian Nurses. So the CNO equals our NCSBN and the CRNE equals NCLEX.

Our thread has just about died, but it is the evening before my exam. I just cannot relax. I am reviewing lab values, positioning, and delegation. During the course of my studies I have completed Saunders, Kaplan Qtrainers, 100% of Qbank, and a m...

I will confess that I have checked on few of classmates not out of maliciousness, but for inspiration.

Many states have an online licensing verification page. You can look up beaticianns, doctors, nurses, plumbers, etc.

Maybe you need to have a mini break. Just a few hours. Are you having breakfast before starting? I have exactly 52 qbank questions left. I have been doing them 50 at a time but I am now doing them 25 at a time. I would try another source for que...

For this question I choose answers 3 and 5. I too was surprised that a nurse's assistant can Dx a foley. I spoke with a friend who works in telemetry and she confirmed that in her unit nursing assitant's dx foley's and do ostomy care. I really do...

I will reply this evening because my children have taken over every computer in the house.

I test at 10:30 =-O.

I too will be taking my exam on Friday. Don't buy another thing. Instead review, review, review, lab values, sign's and symptoms of disease processes and pt's crashing, med classes and side effects....

70east took her test Tuesday, then did PVT, and subsequently paid to get the early results.

It's obvious that you have not researched this topic before adding your inaccurate information. I suggest you read more threads about PVT on this site or a different one.

I think your scores are progressing nicely. Keep on working.

What about Qtrainers?

To save money you could use the Qbank and look for the strategy book at the library. I took a mandatory review through my school and the gist of the Kaplan system is in the strategy book. I suggest to save even more to us Saunders for content revie...

Personally, I think you need to break done each test by the content area: Management, Health Promotion and so on. I look at my total score then analyze each content area to see if I am at passing level. This way you can see trends if you are consis...

I graduated Dec 15 as well and will be testing on 3/22.
