Iwilldothis: IF the tables were turned: I would be sad and upset, but I certainly wouldn't take it out on my friends. Friends are there to be supportive, not to up one another. It sounds like you...
I didn't say "EVEN" in "they didn't pass the HESI the second time." When you quote it that way, it does look bad. I was just giving background information as to why I think they are so mad. Why would...

I do know if you take the NCLEX in TEXAS you get your result pretty quick. I got mine in a day. I don't know how Washington works. Starting pay within the Houston City limits is anywhere from 22-25...

It is so bizaar. I had a friend that was taking KAplan with them and I asked her to tell them I was trying to call them to check on them. I just wanted to see if everything was okay since I hadn't...
Well, I had one finally reply to me via email and she said our ideas of friendship differ and that I thought I was better than them. Never once did I ever think or act that way. I did live my life...

Peds and OB aren't hard, but it is more time management with those classes as far as the workload. Med/Surg 2 is probably your hardes semester I would say. Med/Surg 3 is difficult as well though,...

I graduated December 13th with a HESI score of 1031, took Kaplan the week before Christmas, took NCLEX December 26th and found out that I passed on December 27th. I stopped around 103 and I too got a...
