  1. New to forum and waiting for NCLEX results

    boyfactory replied to loraDell's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You are lucky! I'm not in a quick results state either (TN) and I tried the phone line and it said "sorry..." Well, I tried. Glad you found out though. Jennifer

  2. How long before you were scheduled?

    boyfactory replied to heatherp75's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When you get your ATT you can go to the PearsonVue website and schedule your NCLEX exam. There is an interactive calendar where you can click to find the upcoming days/times available. Jennifer

  3. How long before you were scheduled?

    boyfactory replied to heatherp75's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I graduated on July 14, 2006. On August 5, I received my ATT. I could have tested as soon as August 8. I wanted to wait until my kids were back in school so I could study; it got scheduled for...

  4. Are the quick results ever wrong?

    boyfactory posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was just curious, since they are the "unofficial results" give by the quick results hotline. Has anyone ever been told they failed, but truly passed or vice versa? Jennifer

  5. Resp. acidosis/alkalosis VS. Meta. acidosis/alkalosis! please help me understand!

    boyfactory replied to leeae85's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    That is the best information I found as well. There was a tic-tac-toe thing they wanted us to use at school, but I didn't like it. I knew the above way and it worked well for me. I also second the...

  6. How does a person fail clinical?

    boyfactory replied to Dratz's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I just thought of another person who got kicked out of nursing school for a clinical action. During a preconference on the psych floor, the students were told not to go into a certain room because a...

  7. Quick Results!!!!!

    boyfactory replied to momof1boy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My friend tested yesterday and her license was already posted when I looked it up an hour ago. Check here https://license.ohio.gov/lookup/default.asp?division=86 . Jennifer

  8. Do you pay again? $$$

    boyfactory replied to LPN2be topaz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Do you have to pay the state license fee again as well as the $200 to Pearson Vue? Jennifer

  9. How does a person fail clinical?

    boyfactory replied to Dratz's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    There was only one person that I can think of who failed clinicals - and he deserved it. I was in his rotation 3rd quarter of first year. He didn't bathe his patients, and not only didn't set up a...

  10. How big is everyone's class?

    boyfactory replied to JoshuaC's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I graduated last month in a group of 130 students. We weren't a degree based program though. Our class is the 2nd to last graduating diploma group from the school. So, they only take fall...

  11. Those of us NOT in quick results states...filling time?

    boyfactory posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm doing nothing productive. I sit in front of the computer and surf here and another message board until my kids get home from school. In Tennessee (my new home) they don't have the quick results...

  12. Those of us NOT in quick results states...filling time?

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

    There is no link or anything. It says "Your Board of Nursing does not participate in the Quick Results Service." Though, I didn't try the phone number... Jennifer

  13. Are the quick results ever wrong?

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

    I only wish I had some "unofficial" results. Tennessee doesn't offer it. I moved here from Ohio the day after my graduation. So, my friends are all testing and getting their results. Just...

  14. Working for hospitals pay nursing expenses?

    boyfactory replied to narcissistic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are different options available, depending on where you look. Many places will offer tuition reimbursement to an employee who is attending school. Now, read the fine print, some schools will...

  15. Student Nurse Organizations?

    boyfactory replied to ibmaryann's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Part of our tuition went to pay for a membership in the NSNA. I was fortunate enough to attend the annual conferences to represent our school in 2005 and 2006. They were, as another poster said,...

  16. So, if you fail the first time, how long do you have wait to retest?

    boyfactory posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took my test yesterday and I don't think I passed. Immediately, I felt as if I was going to vomit. There were drugs I had never even heard of on there and procedures we only had 1 paragraph on in...

  17. Failed NCLEX 3 times!

    boyfactory replied to 0morphine0's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    :icon_hug: to you as well Sheena. I wish you well on your next test! Jennifer

  18. A hospital here pays G.N.s $18.xx/hour before licensure!

    boyfactory replied to testikleez's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That sounds about right. During the recruitment presentation by Children's they told us how much aides and LPN's made as well. This was last year and aides were making $11 with LPN's making over...

  19. Resume advice

    boyfactory replied to chuckc's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thanks! I bookmarked it for future reference. Jennifer

  20. Christ College of Nursing

    boyfactory replied to Twigge's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I just graduated from there as well. Though I moved away from the area that same weekend. Good luck in school! Jennifer

  21. 75 Questions on NCLEX, pass or fail?

    boyfactory replied to Lurksalot's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is me. I took the test yesterday and it clicked off. There were only 4 of us and I was the first one done. I don't live in a state where the quick check is available and I am going crazy....

  22. Just took the boards yesterday...

    boyfactory replied to snsteward's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If only every state participated in the quick results thing. Suffering 48 hours is long enough. I'm sure I could think of a few nursing diagnoses to describe my current condition.
