  1. Spring 2007 Applicants!

    Heather, R.N. replied to momto2beauties's topic in Texas Nursing

    When I attended UTA, those classes weren't prereqs, but I'm pretty sure that most of their applicants are currently enrolled in

    Heather, R.N. replied to momto2beauties's topic in Texas Nursing

    Good luck with your interview!! I'm a UTASoN '05 grad- you'll love it! The new sim hospital is pretty cool (I've only been able to peek in). Again, GOOD

    Heather, R.N. replied to suzanne4's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When I looked at their site, they said they get actal questions from the exam from stdents. Another part said they "reword" the actual

  5. Posting questions taken directly from NCLEX exam and Kaplan QBank user name and passw

    Heather, R.N. replied to suzanne4's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'd never heard of them, but I looked them up out of curiosity. Considering how the majority of them are held in hotel rooms rather than at an actual school is a red flag to me. That's terrible that...

  6. Length of time it took to complete questions in Saunders?

    Heather, R.N. replied to kemerick's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi Kim, I actually didn't use Suzanne's entire plan- I found this site the day after I took the NCLEX, but I actually did that first part on my own. It's pretty much all I did to study and I passed...

  7. Length of time it took to complete questions in Saunders?

    Heather, R.N. replied to kemerick's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hey kemerick, I also have a baby and I'm a big procrastinator. It took me about 4 weeks to go through the entire book and that was taking a few days off due to me being sick and then another few days...

  9. Thanks Be To God I Passed

    Heather, R.N. replied to tinta06's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yay!! Congrats

  10. How many questions?

    Heather, R.N. replied to PractikalNurse2B's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I used Saunders mostly and did around 2000 questions (I passed on my first try). I focused more on keeping a percentage that was acceptable to me in all areas. I set my bar high- 85%- which I think...

  11. Transfering nursing schools

    Heather, R.N. replied to panzyo3's topic in Texas Nursing

    My bud from nursing school transfered from Baylor to UTA during our second semester. She had previously been accepted to both, though, so that might have made a

  12. longer than 48hrs?

    Heather, R.N. replied to Boki's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    They may have held your results for some reason. I'm assuming PA participates in quick results? If so, you might want to call the BON there and find out if your results are being held for some...

  13. Dallas area pay rates?

    Heather, R.N. replied to cotzoo's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'm not sure about hourly rates for 3 years experience, but you're probably looking at $25/hour, give or take. As far as taxes, it is really dependent upon what ISD the house is located in, but...

  14. How many times did you apply before being accepted??

    Heather, R.N. replied to kkat4049's topic in Texas Nursing

    UTA also has a BSN program... Baylor does... I think that's it for the DFW

  15. UT Arlington

    Heather, R.N. replied to tracimom's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think your plan looks good. I'm going to PM you a great micro instructor. TWU has a good nursing school also. The BNE has a list of BSN schools. I don't think there are many up here... Baylor...

  16. UT Arlington

    Heather, R.N. replied to tracimom's topic in Texas Nursing

    We actually didn't take those 3 courses as prereqs. They were part of our junior I semester. (Actually, I think some people did, but it wasn't required.) I think it's better to take them before...

  17. Facing the toughest test of my life.

    Heather, R.N. replied to tobelpn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That made me laugh so hard I choked on my Dr.

  18. Waiting....

    Heather, R.N. replied to ashley_michelle's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I watched tons of movies that I hadn't had a chance to see yet. That really got my mind off of it. (Except when I watched on movie and they showed a girl walking in the grocery store with a pair of...

  19. Just Moved/New Grad

    Heather, R.N. replied to Melchm's topic in Texas Nursing

    I love Baylor hospitals!! They are located pretty much everywhere in DFW. http://www.bhcs.com/ The Harris Methodist hospitals, Arlington Memorial, and all the Presbyterian hospitals are under Texas...

    Heather, R.N. replied to tracimom's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well, good luck!! If you need anything, feel free to PM me. I graduated from there last year, so a lot is still the same. Some things have changed,

    Heather, R.N. replied to charmedpn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My quick results arrived 48 hours to the second from my appointment time (11:30), even though I started the exam at 11:15 and finished at

    Hi Echota, I'm so sorry to hear that! Don't give up and try not to be discouraged! Take it again and go in knowing that you will pass!!! We're here for you...

  24. Graduated 2001, failed NCLEX.......too late to be RN ?

    Heather, R.N. replied to originals's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Be sure to check with your state's BON to determine their rules. I know that Texas sets a limit of 4 years from graduation. I think you have to take an approved refresher course. Double check...

  25. First post, but...

    Heather, R.N. posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just wanted to come on here and say "hi" and tell everyone I found out yesterday that I passed the NCLEX! I have a 5-year-old and an 8-month-old, took it 9 months after graduating, and was sick...
