Hello everyone!!! This question is specifically for those who have passed the NCLEX using the online Hurst Review....other comments are welcome as well. I'm looking for a study plan. This will be my 3rd time taking the NCLEX...and hopefully my las...

I passed!!! WooHoo!!!

Thanks so much....I just needed someone to be straight forward with me....appreciate it!!

Does anyone else have any advice? I still have 2 1/2 weeks and I feel like I'm all over the place. I have 3 review books, online Hurst review notes, and 2 Q&A books with CDRoms.....I think I have too much!!

Thanks so much....I really needed to hear that!! I guess I'll do that.....I always make things more difficult than they really are, so something that simple, maybe I can pull it off this time.

Hurst Review definately

Priority/delegation.....Fluids and Electrolytes....lab values.....Infection and Safety control/precautions...........breathe, take a break, do not get frustrated, keep calm

Hmmm...that's interesting. I would think you would change the bag as well.

Yes....please remember....if you take extra breaks, this WILL count against your time!! Crutches hey.......hopefully you'll get the crutch walking questions right!! lol

Actually you DO get a new ATT

Waiting for results...definately!!

I've said it in a couple of other posts but just wanted to spread the word. If you haven't taken the NCLEX yet, or haven't retaken it since April 1st...please read!! I'm sure most of you have heard that the NCLEX has a "new" format. I just wanted ...

Hey...I just took (and failed) for the second time...although I did a lot better this time around according to my NCSBN report, I now know what to expect for the "new" format that came out April 1st after my first attempt. I CANNOT stress enough.......

Just found out that I failed the NCLEX for the second time. I had a TON of prioritizing questions...and no I'm not imagining it, there were actually a TON. Anyone have any advice or books that go over priortizing?

Thanks for the advice everyone...can't retake it until July 13, I suppose I should start studying again now. Good luck to you Megster...hopefully, third time is a charm in both of our cases.

Saunders and ATI........I know my ABC's, I just don't think I'm a very good test taker....apparently.

I know your frustration!! If you have to work, you have to work. If you have the option of not working, it will only work in your favor. Nursing school isn't like any class you have ever been in, let alone the tests. Personally, I felt as if I we...

Hey....just graduated in December and began working in the PICU in early February. It's the end of my 3rd week and apparently I only have about 7 weeks or so of orientation to go. Does that seem like a short amount of time to orient to the PICU? A...

Hi, my name is Kristi and I have just recently graduated nursing school-whew!! I am currently looking for a "real" job and am getting ready to study for my NCLEX. I have two children age 8 and 4 and am so excited that I finally have more time for t...

I took Micro in between my 1st and 2nd semesters of nursing during the summer....piece of cake!!

No Bueno, but have a PICU interview on Thursday

Hello, this is my first time posting. I graduate next month and have a second interview (peer interview) tomorrow morning. :uhoh21: Does anyone have any advice? I'm sure they will ask priortizing questions and I'm unsure as to what to say....maybe ...

Really!!! Now I am a little worried...I haven't studied OB in a year!! Well, I suppose it would make sense to start studying it now if I want to be in this field...my interview is in the morning though. Maybe I should just study some basic stuff. ...

Thanks for the advice. However, being a new graduate, do you think they will ask actual OB questions?? Basically, should I study anything?
