   cursedandblessed replied to SuperDuperSuper's topic in General Students

   It's not easy, expect to go down a letter grade over other college classes. We were graded on classwork for letter/points. Clinical is pass/fail. Failure in clinical is subjective and can be based...

   cursedandblessed posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I passed!! And I'm amazed. I haven't been here much in last 6 months, because right when I'm to the point in my RN program where the LPN students exit, I had surgery. Turns out it wasn't just the...

   Wishing you tons of good luck. I passed it on Feb 26 coming off 6 weeks of radiation for a rare cancer. I don't think anyone ever feels completely ready no matter how much they study. Study...

   cursedandblessed replied to WaddleDoos's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

   Welcome to Nursing School and critical thinking. In nursing school tests you will find that there is one best answer, two so-so answers, and one really bad answer (at least from my experiences)....

6. ATI questions

   cursedandblessed replied to TurismoDreamin's topic in General Students

   No answers and rationales, but you get a report telling you what you're weak in. Apparently I know nothing about babies. I haven't even had the mental health nursing class and got 100% of those...

7. School's hidden agenda, "NCLEX pass rate: Weed out students who will not pass"

   cursedandblessed replied to Bala Shark's topic in General Students

   We had to get 97% chance of passing the Nclex on the ATI. Which equals to a less than 74% total questions correct (I got 99% and had 78% total questions correct.) If licensure is the goal, and you...

   cursedandblessed replied to beverlydianne's topic in General Students

   Well it's only a midterm eval. Self-confidence for me only comes by doing over and over. I got a compliment from a rebound patient this rotation about how much confidence I'd gained in just three...

12. What am I going to do!!!!!

    cursedandblessed replied to sunnie123's topic in General Students

    First of all are they NCLEX style questions? If they are, then you're going to have to learn how to take it apart. What's the question asking for? What's the pertinent info related to what the...

13. Abusive and Cruel Clinical Instructors: Why??

    cursedandblessed replied to sallber's topic in General Students

    Try and get through this rotation is the only advice I can give you. The instructor I had took something away from me so the previous post concerning them scarring you is very true. I find myself...
