Took NCLEX RN on Wednesday, June 8 and had all 265 questions. Felt like I failed like we all do :) Did the PV trick, got the good pop-up, paid the money yesterday to get the quick results and passed :) Now just waiting for license # to be posted :)
You will love Royal Oak! I would suggest looking on Craigslist and not going with a big apartment complex (Urbane, Amber, etc). You will get a much better price! Check out flats/duplexes too. If you have any specific questions, let me know...I have l...
We aren't allowed to have any drinks/food at the nurses station. Period. I personally think it is unprofessional to be chowing down in the vision of patients!
St John Main is in Detroit on the border of Grosse Point. The parking for employees is very convenient and you don't have to shuttle in, which is nice. I personally love working there and wouldn't work anywhere else.
I am a student who has to do a psycho-educational group on self-esteem on the psychiatric inpatient unit. Does anyone have any ideas? I would like it to be very interactive to keep the patients attention. Ideas: Ask everyone what they think self-este...
I am a first year student J You start out going to lecture 1 day per week and lab 2 days per week. I think we started the extended care clinical in October and then moved on to the acute care clinical in November. You also have to go to an APA lectur...

If you were close to the GPA cut-off and didn't get in, don't count yourself out yet! Some people will decline for another program or because of personal reasons... Congrats to everyone who got in :) I am a first year student and I love the program!

I bought the required books and the Saunders NCLEX-RN Review book. I figure that if other students find the other optional books helpful, I can buy them later on :) And, I highly suggest buying your books from amazon.com or half.com. I saved a lot of...

Yay!!! Thanks for the post! So for the first 3 weeks we have 3 hours on Monday and then 6 hours total Tue/Wed or 6 hours total on Thur/Fri right? I can't wait until I get my mail after work! What time is orientation on Sept 3?

I am wondering the same thing. When I went to a make-up orientation session, someone said we would get them at the end of July, but I don't think that is going to happen!
Did anyone on the board go to the OCC Nursing Orientation on Thur, June 11? I had to miss it because of a scheduling conflict, but I am going to a make-up session tomorrow (which I am happy that they are providing!). What went on at orientation? Any ...
