i just finished my first year on a med/surg floor and am ready for something different. i am interested in a couple of different areas: peds, nicu, l&d, postpartum, maybe even more med/surg. just want to hear some advice/stories about other specialties from other nurses so i can make a decision. any advice?

1. i took 75 questions on march 1st 2. i took kaplan complete (class time, question trainer, and q-bank) 3. yeah, the ERI, which i did not take 4. it was the longest two days of my life. i kept checking to see if the quick results link would show up early but it didnt. took the whole 48 hours but was worth the wait (i passed) 5. i thought i was failing the entire time i was taking the test. i was freaking out when i left, thinking about how i was going to have to take that test again. the test was the hardest test i have ever taken, which now i see as a good thing...if it was easy then i would have thought i failed for sure. 6. first time and never again!!!:wink2:

thanks

i took the nclex on thursday at 2pm and have been checking the pearson site alot. i dont see any quick results link, it just says in red that my results are not ready yet. when will they be ready? 48 hours from my scheduled test time or 48 hours after i finished the test? and do they even post results on saturday? i cant take this waiting anymore!! the link finally showed up and it says PASS!!!! best feeling in the world
