  1. UNC Chapelhill's RN-BSN Online Program

    WOW!!! That's awesome. I actually live in Burlington. I used to work at Duke for about 7 months. I wouldn't mind driving to attend these classes. How does the program work? Only 4 hours a week for a year? If you get anymore information on the prog...
  2. UNC Chapelhill's RN-BSN Online Program

    NC Girl RN, I have also sent my unofficial transcripts to be reviewed by UNC-CH. I have heard that the program is difficult to get into, but what program isn't. Go to NCBON.COM to take a look at different RN-BSN programs in the state, just so you c...
  3. FAILED...but now you passed??

    Well ladies, I failed nclex 4x in less than 2 years. At first I used Kaplan twice because they guaranteed a pass, and if you didn't pass, they wanted you to try again. Both times I failed. I spoke to my Nurse Manager who suggested I take the NCLEX-PN...
  4. The GRE Blues

    Hello, I recently took my GRE test in preparation for entrance into an RN-MSN program. I was totally in shock when I viewed my score at the end of the test. It was awful and too bad to mention. It was under 900. Anyway, the worst thing is that I sent...
  5. The GRE Blues

    Thank you. I decided to take the prep class, so that begins Jan. 10 to Feb. 21. Application deadline is March 31st, so I will probably take the GRE's again first week in March. I know I will probably be cutting it close, but I did call the Master's ...
  6. The GRE Blues

    Thank you both for the response. I will definitely check out my local community college to see if they offer a GRE Prep. The prep I was going to take is called "Prep Success". People have "reported" a 200-300 point increase after taking it, so it is...
  7. I can't believe it. I PASSED!!!!!!

    Hey Everyone, I have a story to tell you all. I graduated in May '06 from Nursing School, and I have been unsuccessful taking the NCLEX RN Exam. I took Kaplan twice with no success, and two more times doing tons of books and not focusing on one book....
  8. Hi Guys, I was just wondering if anyone has passed the NCLEX-RN studying 3 wks or less. I have a couple of friends who just read the strategy books and went right in, took the test, and PASSED. Right now I am doing Suzanne's plan. I guess some people...
  9. Substance Abuse in the Workplace

    Hi, I am in a twister and need some advice. Well, I work in a clinic, and I am the Charge Nurse. I have an LPN and 2 CMA's that work with me. The LPN was hired 3 months after I was, and I trained her on the unit. We became very close, and became good...

  13. Anyone Pass Nclex-RN studying 3 wks or less?

    Well, before I took NCLEX the first time, I worked with a male Nurse. He was a lawyer for some years and decided to switch to Nursing. He told me that he never touched a reveiw book. Once he scheduled his test, he went on vacation, came back, and jus...
