    KimmbaFNP posted a topic in California Nursing

    What FNP program did you attend and did you like it?

    KimmbaFNP replied to Pug RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I think you will find that most programs do not arrange your FNP clinical sites for you. The advantage is that you're not stuck going somewhere you don't want to be and can try to establish clinicals...

    KimmbaFNP posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I don't like my NP program and I am a half way through it

    KimmbaFNP replied to olli975's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    IF you get to the point where you're so frustrated you plan to drop, do a LOA instead. That way if you get out there and don't find what you seek or regret it, you can still return w/o having to...

    KimmbaFNP replied to Alison123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    CA NCLEX/BRN results - how soon will you "show" on the license verification?

    KimmbaFNP posted a topic in California Nursing

    I've heard that you can find out if you've passed by checking the license verification section on the BRN website - how soon after taking the exam are you likely to see yourself listed there if you've...

    NCLEX - anyone flunk at 75 questions? Or does it always go for more questions first?

    KimmbaFNP posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Does anyone know of anyone who had the NCLEX shut off at 75 and they failed??? Or does the program essentially go on and give you more questions if you're close to failing. I realize that if you 100%...

    CA NCLEX/BRN results - how soon will you "show" on the license verification?

    KimmbaFNP replied to KimmbaFNP's topic in California Nursing

    FYI - I took the exam on the 7th & didn't find out until last Friday, the 23rd. My school hadn't sent in the coversheet with my transcripts, so that was the hold up. You might want to make sure...

    CA NCLEX/BRN results - how soon will you "show" on the license verification?

    KimmbaFNP replied to KimmbaFNP's topic in California Nursing

    I'm getting the impression that a lot of it depends on whether or not they have a "complete" file on you or not. I just found out my Univ. didn't send the required BRN coversheet with the transcripts,...
