I just passed the NCLEX last week and started applying for jobs. I had my first interview today and have two more scheduled for tomorrow and Monday. However, the lady was not at all nice or encouraging and I think once she found out I graduated fro...

Well I got a job offer last night with the second facility I interviewed with. It would be working in the Maternity unit. I officially accepted the offer and start in a week and a half. I am so excited but am also getting nervous now. They do a s...

Well third interview was ok although the nurse manager didn't really ask me more then two questions so I don't think she was really interested. However, she wasn't rude and gave me her business card to call with any additional questions and then sho...

:ancong!: Hooray...glad to hear that you passed!!!!

:yeah:Congratulations!! :yeah:

Good luck to those still waiting on results. You can really play tricks with your mind and totally freak yourself out. Try to keep yourselfs busy doing something fun or something you have really wanted to do but have been too busy studying for. Go...

Thanks for all your tips and advice. It really is nice to be able to hear from other people in the same type of situation. The second interview I had on Thursday was much better. I actually interviewed with three people and they were familiar with...

I am living proof that all the myths of the NCLEX are just that.....myths. I tested my second time on Thursday. I was really confident when I took the test and I just knew that it was going to shut off at 75 questions. However, once I hit the parki...

No it was Excelsior. She asked if I went to New York to learn and what I did for clinicals. Then she matter of fact stated that a lot of local colleges use them for clinical rounds and she was concerned with my lack of rotations. When I was startin...

There are some hospitals in my area that offer a residency program to new grads to help them transition into working. However, I missed the two that were open for June as I was studying so hard for the NCLEX. There are a couple more that will start...

I love it!! I actually have that picture as the screen saver on my phone. It looks awesome! Your husband did well!

I was waiting for this post. I knew you could do it!! Congratulations on your success!!! :dancgrp::hpygrp:

:yeah:Congratulations!!! :yeah:

Well I just recently passed the NCLEX and started sending out applications yesterday. I now have two job interviews set up for the next two days. The one on Thursday is for Maternity which is the position I really want. However, I really don't hav...

Just try to have confidence in yourself. I believe that really does have an impact on your testing. Also don't let the fact that your classmates were unsuccessful worry you. Everybody's tests are so different and that mixed with test anxiety, stre...

You will do fine. Just go in their confident in yourself. You have worked so hard for this. I will be thinking and praying for you!!! Try to get a good night's sleep and give yourself some time off today so you go in fresh tomorrow. Good luck!!:h...

Each testing center might be a little bit different on following these guidelines. However, when I went to test I wore comfy jeans and a black short sleeve tee shirt that is super comfy. I then took a white hoodie that zips up the front. I did not...

those scores are pretty good. especially since 6-7 are above 60% and very near 65% which is what kaplan told me was what they wanted you to aim for. however, i have heard other people say that kaplan told them to aim for 60%. qt6-7 are supposed to ...

If you have already paid the money to Kaplan they should set you up an account and send you log in information via your email address. I believe when I set up for the online complete with Qbank it took 48 hours from when I registered to the time I h...

Congratulations Nursegreen and Ladybugsea!!!! :dancgrp::w00t:

I can't tell you what to do about scheduling as that really is a personal choice. I would recommend that you go in with some confidence though as not going into panic mode is one thing I believe helped me pass. My first test was horrible. Near the...

I know how hard this is too wait while you second guess yourself. Try to keep yourself busy doing other things. I will keep you in my thoughts!!! :heartbeat

Hooray!!! Congratulations!!! :dancgrp:
