Hi everyone, I'm having a hard time finding definitive info. on this career option. I've been researching for a couple days and have found the following: The SANE test will give me certification as a forensic nurse, and there are several degrees for ...

Hi everyone, I see that most people agree that Saunders is a great resource for the NCLEX RN, but does anyone know if the Saunders Q&A review has the same questions as the ones at the end of the review sections in the comprehensive book? I'm just...

Hi, I'm trying to study for the NCLEX, but so far it's been mostly frustration. I feel like I don't know nearly as much as I should and I'm not even getting 75% on all my tests. I keep jumping around from subject to subject, even though I have a sche...

Unfortunately, I don't remember. I put my application in over 3 years ago. I'm pretty sure it was 2.5 then, and I know they were going to raise it when I was leaving. It's got to be a 2.75 or maybe a 3.0. But I don't know for sure. Sorry I can't be ...

Hi everyone, I'm stressing out. I graduated on August 2nd and have been studying at least 5 days a week. I just got my ATT on Friday, as in 2 days ago, and the only appointments were October or this Tuesday. I took Tuesday. I really feel as ready as ...

Hi sandycadet, I graduated from BCC central campus on Aug. 2. Believe me, there were hard times, but it is a great school and program. I agree about the horror stories, they are just stories. Some teachers are harder than others, but in my experience...

Thank you all so much for all of your kind words and encouragement. I took it this morning and, literally, my head is still spinning. It shut off at 75 questions and it seemed like I had taken 150. I'm nervous, anxious, excited and ready to hurl;)......

Hi, I'm not sure yet, I'm taking mine on Tuesday:uhoh21:, and I too have been having the nausea. But, if it comforts you, all of my friends and I aren't scoring as high on these practice tests as we did in school either. I'll let you know on thursday...

CONGRATULATIONS RN !!! :balloons: Thanks for the tip.

CONGRATS!!! That's so exciting, what a huge relief I'm waiting for my ATT anyday now, and I was wondering if you could tell me what Suzanne's tips are? I have Saunders and a few other books and I'm doing between 50-100 questions a day, and reviewi...

Yeah, I think I understand the questions okay, I guess I'm just more overwhelmed than I thought I'd be. But I know I'll be fine. Thanks.

Hi everyone. I started studying for the NCLEX about a week ago and I feel like I don't know anything. I'm averging less than 75% on most tests, not all, but enough to make me stressed. I also feel like I don't know where to focus, even though I have ...

Hi everyone! I am graduating in 26 days and I could use some opinions please. I know I SHOULD go to the floor and get my skills and organization down first. But, there is a large hospital in my area that loves to hire new grads into specialties so t...

Thank you all SOOO much. I appreciate all of you taking time to give me advice. The last few responses were really definitive for me. I am passionate about going to the ER and have always known that it's the place for me. Now, I'm going to go for it....

Thanks for all of your input, I still may have to flip a coin in the end, but I appreciate your advice.

Don't worry you guys. I'm taking mine in a couple months and my teacher was just telling us today that we will all think that we bombed it no matter what. She thought she failed her NCLEX and, more recently, her masters exam. I'm sure you all did fin...

I'll tell you the secret to getting through nursing school. Desire. You have to really want to be a nurse to make it. I'm graduating in August and I can finally see the light. I never felt like I wanted to quit, but I did feel like crying several tim...
