  2. First day of nursing school

    Thanks Shord. I think I did pass the test, its just the waiting that makes it bad. They say 85% of people that take the test pass it on the first go round. Some of my negative feelings stem from not...

  12. For All Nursing Instructors

    I hope that at some point some instructors will realize that it isn't intimidation that motivates their students. What students really need is a role model to aspire to, not one to fear... My best...
  13. Should I prepare or just wait????

    Before I started class I read the first five chapters of anatomy and physiology and the first five of nursing fundamentals. It was a good thing for me, I was ahead and since we hit the ground running...

  15. First day of nursing school

    The authorization to test (ATT) is confusing to some of my classmates. What I figured out was that after I registered to take the NCLEX exam on the pearsonvue.com website, I was the first to get my...

  18. Terrified of Nclex

    Wow! I learned as much from the CNA's as I learned from the nurses. Unfortunately, I didn't have that experience (unless you count the time when I was 16 and working as a nurses aide, which was way...

  20. LPN/LVN Additional Certifications

    Thanks for answering. Maybe acknowledgement is withheld because they fear workers will want wage increases, or maybe its just bad management. Glad you didn't let that stop you. Knowledge is...
  21. LPN/LVN Additional Certifications

    Congratulations Hubby's Girl! Where did you get your certification if I might ask? You said your employer didn't acknowledge it, I wonder why? Seems like it would be a desirable certificate to get if...

    Wow! What a night. I am going to remember this post when I am on my first job, working the night shift, wondering what you would have done! Congratulations for surviving that night, and I hope you...
  23. Do you have to carry all your books??
