  1. I guess third times the charm

    I've been following all your threads and really wish you the best this time around. I took mine today and don't know what to think. The last time I tested was back in '00 so I had LOTS of work to do....
  2. I took the NCLEX-RN today, for the 2nd time since I graduated back in '00. I was so devastated after my first failed attempt that I refused to try again, until now. I had been studying since June...
  3. My NCLEX Journey

    I graduated 8 years ago, took the NCLEX once and failed. I went into hiding for such a long time, got married, had kids, and worked odd jobs, none that were remotely satisfying. Then, last June '07,...
  4. I struggle with cardio.
  5. I'm confused. I thought Ca level, per Saunders is 8.6-10. I read on Kaplan and see above that it's 4.5-5. Did I miss something,
  6. I know how you feel. I've been studying since June '07, trying to relearn everything I've lost over 8 years. It's not easy, and some days, I just don't have the energy, will or patience to study. I...

    ksax4ever, i think you can relax! the original poster posted this in march 07. good
  8. brownsuga83, I know what it's like to fail. It was a big disappointment to me. So much so, that I didn't retest after that one time. Don't let go of your dream!! I did, and now 8 years later, I'm...
  9. Kaplan vs NCSBN NCLEX-RN Review

    jay4, I'm so glad you posted that "note to self 2.2 lb=1 kg, not 1 lb= 2.2 kg.". I just had to check my notes and I had it reversed as well. You saved the day!! Thanks for the reviews. I've tried both...
  10. I don't want to jinx myself. Plus, I don't think I could come back if the results weren't in my favor. But I gotta think positive, right?!? Best of luck to all of
  11. Graduated 2yrs ago need to pass NCLEX

    The Saunders book helped me a lot in regards to content. I had a lot of catching up to do since it's been 8 years since graduation. If you feel like you're lacking in content, then that's a good book...
  12. NCSBN learningext

    I haven't tested yet so I can't answer that part of the question. I did the 5 wk course and didn't get to do all the content review 'cause I'm a slacker! But I did the entire Qbank which I really...
  13. kaplan QT results...very discouraging!

    I know how you feel. My QT scores are quite discouraging. They are 59, 57, 51, 53 and 59. I haven't done 6 or 7 yet, and I'm kind of afraid to. I've read many posts though, and everybody says not to...

  16. The clinic at Kadena is mostly run by the military so your best bet would be Lester Naval Hospital at Camp Lester a few minutes away. They do hire civilian nurses so that would be a good place to...
  17. Graduated 2yrs ago need to pass NCLEX

    Kind of in the same boat too...except I feel like I'm drowning! I'm so overwhelmed!! I graduated 8 years ago. Tested once shortly after and didn't pass. I had a baby, then 2. Life happens...of course....

  19. Thank you, it was very soothing...emotionally and
  20. Just wondering if any of you have had this problem while working through the questions on the CD? I was able to work through it fine the past few days, and on question 781 in study mode. Yesterday, I...
  21. sending in the transcript form to my school? Won't the turnaround time be quicker if I do it that way? Just want to make sure that can be done. I emailed board about a month ago but they haven't...
  22. Yes, sorry.
  23. December Test Takers Support Group

    I didn't have a chance to do retakes. I kind of slacked during the middle of the course so I had to hurry up and finish. So those were my original scores. Thank you for your words of encouragement!! I...
  24. 14 years Grad. ???

    Don't despair!! There are people who have done it and who are trying to do it right now. I'm one of them. I graduated in '99, tested and failed once in '00. It took me this long to build up enough...
  25. Do nursing boards send you an approval?

    I'm just concerned because it will be about 8 years since I've graduated and just now retesting after failing once in '00. That's how bad my confidence was shot!! Anyways, I looked into several boards...
