    krisjazzer13 replied to CrazyPremed's topic in First Year After Licensure

  8. Taking the NCLEX...When is the timing right?!

    krisjazzer13 replied to 5858MrsBroderick8585's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I too wanted to take the NCLEX right after graduation (graduated Dec 06), but by the time my ATT came w/the holidays and everything, I had been out of school for over a month already! Once you get...

  9. Best way to get experience?

    krisjazzer13 replied to prinsessa's topic in General Nursing

  13. ATI vs NCLEX

    krisjazzer13 replied to Sillynicunurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took the ATI exams while in school and thought they covered the class material very well, but I personally thought that the NCLEX questions were more difficult....ATI is wonderful for reviewing...

    Hi! I'm Kristin and I graduated w/a bachelors degree in Food Science Human Nutrition- Dietetics option in 2005...decided that instead of being a Dietitian, I wanted to be a nurse! So, I immediately...
