I read some old threads on the wait time for NJ license distribution but was wondering if anyone who recently tested could give me an idea of the wait time? Thanks so much...

I went from LPN to RN with AAS from Brookdale, am currently enrolled RN to BSN and have been applying to all area hospitals to include Barnabas, Meridian, Raritan, Centra State, RWJ, all to no avail. I knew it wouldn't be easy and I have my per diem...

Good to hear, as the old saying goes, "good things come to those who wait". However, the waiting is excruciating! I just received my paper license yesterday which was 2.5 weeks after number was posted. Now I just need to find a job, have something...

I am assuming you have checked the BON website for any updates on your license #. Also on your application did you check off any of the boxes indicating any previous license suspensions or any criminal history; as a yes answer in this area will crea...

Hi, can i get the email address u emailed? Ive been waiting for almost 5 weeks now.. and its really scaring me... Pleeaasseee thanks! I had no reply to email I sent via the "contact us" link. I did call them to get an update on my status about 10 d...

I can only imagine....all the best to you!

Do lots and lots of NCLEX style questions and be sure to review the rationales even if you get the answer right. Have a solid rationale for each answer you choose.

When you are answering a question, try to eliminate options by rationale. If your going to pick one answer over another, you need to back it up with a rationale. Ask yourself, why am I picking this answer, what facts back this answer choice? Many ...

They are fairly expensive, I believe around $120.00. You can try searching for factory seconds which are just as good. Try Clog kingdom, or Shoebacca.

Thank you for your reply. I will try the email route.

I did attend my LPN pinning but decided to forgo the RN pinning. I was just not into it since I had already had the experience previously. Personally I do not feel as though I missed out on anything, other than losing the $20 I had already paid.......

I swear by Sanita! I can do a twelve hour shift and my feet are fine. They do have white leather and also carry KOI patent leather white.

Bravo to you! I give a lot of credit to those who test and have to answer 265 questions! I was absolutely thrilled when my screen went blue at 75 (passed). Congratulations, all the best to you in your nursing career...

Congratulation, enjoy your accomplishment!

I notice many people focus on knowing content by utilizing all different types of review materials. What I don't see, is test takers mentioning how to improve their test taking abilities. No one can know everything, which is why it is essential to ...

Congratulations, now relax and enjoy your accomplishment!

I am sorry to hear your news, as we all know just how hard we work to reach this point. I recently passed with 75 questions on 07/13/2013. First off, I took my time with each and every question. Narrowing down the possibilities to 2, then asking m...

If you have recently passed nclex how long did it take for you to receive your license from the NJ BON? Thanks, -C

you really need to do your research with this type of school. for starters take a look at their nclex-pn pass rate: "for the calendar year 2010, the pass rate for our practical nurse program graduates taking the nclex-pn, an exam whose passage is re...

Personally, I plan on persuing LPN to RN ADN program, then work toward BSN. At my age (40) and having a family, this would work out best for me. You need to evaluate your situation and take it from there. If you have the funds and know you can go ...

During the day shift at my facility you have 18 residents and everyone of them has several 9 am meds. If you use the hour before and hour after rule, you have 120 minutes in which to pass meds. This equates to 6.66 minutes of time spent on each resid...

You can try contacting the NJ BON via email with your questions. If you printed out your appliation on line, refer to the second page of the packet, there are 2 persons listed which you can chose from to address your question via email and the BON p...

I am 8 days into LPN orientation/mentoring program for a LTC facility, working 7-3 with 18-20 residents to administer meds to. Fresh out of nursing school end of Jan. 09, passed boards 02/09. The LPN I am mentoring under is patient, knowledgeable, ...

The instructors will offer any scholarship opportunities to you, if and when they become available. I believe it was Monmouth Ocean Counties Business... something or other. I cant recall exactly who offered it. Enjoy life now, because you'll soon...

I was fortunate enough to be able to pay for the tuition in 2 payments. I also submitted an essay and was awarded a $500.00 scholarship which helped when I was not working all that much. Now that I am working in a LTC facility, I can say that pharm...
