  1. Nurse/Patient ratio in the ED?

    jlan79 posted a topic in Emergency

  2. Emergency Nursing - pros and cons?

    jlan79 posted a topic in Emergency

    I'm a new nursing grad and never considered emergency nursing until I volunteered for NYC marathon and I absolutely loved the experience. The fast pace, the chaos of patients just pouring in and...

  3. Failed NCLEX - Kaplan live course versus Kaplan Qbank?

    jlan79 replied to yudenisrodriguez's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  5. 48 hours for results?

    jlan79 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When Pearsonvue says to wait 48 hours, does that mean exactly that? On the dot? And does it mean 48 hrs from the time you start or from the time you finish? If my test was at 2pm, the results should...

    jlan79 replied to eylee08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was in your shoes a few days ago and was feeling very nervous too (the day before was the worst!) That said, when I saw the first question it was as if I didn't study anything. I felt like most of...

  8. Did I just pass the NCLEX??

    jlan79 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So I took the test today and I honestly felt like it was the hardest test I've ever taken. I did Kaplan and did well on it and NCLEX seemed MUCH harder! I was asked about stuff I never even heard...

    jlan79 replied to jlan79's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
