Thank you! That makes me feel better! I would consider doing acute care again if I needed it on my resume, but I would rather go straight into teaching.

Hello! I am finishing my RN to BSN and am considering an MSN-ED, but when I look for jobs in that area, I only find jobs for DNP's. Is it possible to teach with only an MSN-ED? If so how do you find available jobs as I've been looking everywhere I...

So, to be clear, my background is as a nurse circulator in the OR, in outpatient chemotherapy infusion, and as of now I do telehealth. Do you think that working telehealth will hurt my chances of getting a job as a nurse educator (preferably online)...

My adjusted individual total score is 72.9% Math adj. ind. score 51.1% Science adj. ind. score 86.7% How bad is this? Someone just told me they'd never seen someone get into a nursing program with a math score so low. (I ran out of time. )

Graduate 12/15/11 and took my NCLEX RN on Thursday (1/19/12). Got my results 3 hours ago, and felt like I failed the entire 2 days because my questions were SO hard... but today I am an R.N. in Texas! Btw, the Pearsonvue trick worked for me :) Goo...

I suck at and hate math, I took every remedial math course to get into my program, I also scored like a 58% in math on my nursing school entrance test (but a 98% in science), and got into my school of choice on the first attempt. I went to Oakton, b...

Wow, that was biased. I am a high-school dropout who got my GED because I was sick of getting beaten at home & honestly, i've found that very few people at my work act like this, but the 2/50 who do have their BSN. I feel that if you are a "low...

Swore I failed, but the Pearsonvue trick worked for me!! Passed with 77 questions on a Thursday and found out 48 hours later on a Saturday in the state of Texas that - TODAY I AM A R.N.!!!!! :w00t:

Got into school on first application even with the crappy math score. Graduated in Dec. 2011 with no math problems throughout school. R.N. as of today!!!

Just so y'all know... today I am a R.N. in the state of Texas!!!:yelclap:

I know you get your acceptance letter for the upcoming semester (Spring 2010) before Thanksgiving but can anyone get more specific? Also, I wonder how I match up w/ 2 A's and 2 B's in the sciences, a 3.522 gpa, and 86% science 51% math TEAS scores (7...

I had been told by my professor: "WE WILL NOT TRICK YOU: THE MAR AND THE PHYSICIAN'S ORDER DRUG DOSAGE WILL MATCH UP", we were also given handouts to practice by where the MAR and Dr.'s orders drug dosage match up, corresponding w/ what the teacher ...

SOOOOo glad nursing school is over with!! Today I am a R.N.!!

Amazing to me how so many people can afford not to work. If I don't have a job the baby and I will starve to death.

I was also told I could not get pregnant and here I am, 11 weeks along, and about to graduate from nursing school. Luckily, I've been working as a Nurse Extern at my hospital for over a year now, so it should be easy for me to transition to become a...

I changed my job from an inflexible 5-6 day/wk vet tech job to a 3 night/wk PCT/Nurse Extern job at a hospital = less stress & more $!!! Can't loose, but it took 6 months of applying to get the job. Good luck, it can be done!

So i'm only just starting adult, but what? For infection check your (CBC) WBC count, for electrolytes check your (Chemistry) sodium, potassium, chloride. Blood Sugar lvl for glucose, but i'm not sure that all patients w/ MI would be elevated. For ...

Some ppl just don't retain written information as well as others, check your book for a CD. Also look online for harder concepts (Youtube), but make sure the source looks knowledgeable. The best thing you can do is to practice NCLEX questions, eith...

Here it is.

I'm so sorry he slapped you. I think/hope maybe he was just so far gone he didn't know what he was doing. god bless ya. ... oops, should have quoted, replying to a post on pg. 4!

Won't know for sure until I graduate, but from what I've heard starting out pays around $22/hr. I guess it depends on your personality, but if you like Chicago, go to downtown Dallas. If you like it a little more laid-back, Ft. Worth might be your ...

I don't want to upset you or anyone else, but to me Irving seemed dirty and crowded. I am aware that there are different parts of Irving and maybe I just didn't live on a good side? I lived right off 183 near the airport and Walmart. Anyway, didn'...

Good luck. Tried to take it while also working on a full-schedule of pre-req's. If you want an "A" take it alone. Otherwise do like I did and take it until the drop date and drop it, unless you're getting an A, or i guess, a B. Now at some school...

Well, my GPA was just a little above 3.5 and I made a 60 something percent on my TEAS (which by the way is no indicator of what your science skills are I failed the math 'cause I ran out of time). AND GUESS WHAT? I GOT INTO A SCHOOL THAT ALL THE R...
