1. Took Nclex today-I know I failed

   ThisOneGotLucky replied to tolerantgirl's topic in NCLEX

   I, somewhat, feel your pain. I'm sorry that this has happened to us but it makes me accept things better knowing that this could happen to anyone, and also that I'm not going through things alone. I traveled out of the city to take the test (I'm sti...

2. Took Nclex today-I know I failed

   ThisOneGotLucky replied to tolerantgirl's topic in NCLEX

   Hey Tolerant Girl! I also took the NCLEX this morning and am pretty sure that I didn't pass. The computer definitely found my weakness and kept shooting those types of questions back to me. I wish I was being modest, but I'm pretty sure it didn't go ...

3. Associate Degree vs. Accelerated Bachelors Degree

   ThisOneGotLucky replied to nursegirl513's topic in Ohio

   Nursegirl: I would just go ahead and take the pre-req's anyway, they won't go to waste. Even if you do not get into the program you will still need them to complete your BSN, anywhere. My class had about 24 or so. We started out at 27 but lost 3 of t...

   Thank You!!! I looked at all of those schools that you all recommended. ECU has an online Pediatric and Neonatal, but the other schools don't. I'm not too sure that I would be willing to commute a couple of hours (each way) to and from school in anot...

   I've been offered a NICU job at a hospital in Charlotte, but would like to go back to school eventually. Thank You for responding

   ThisOneGotLucky posted a topic in North Carolina

   Has anyone else noticed that there aren't many NP programs offered in Charlotte? Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but all I seem to see is FNP programs. I am interested in Peds and would eventually like to be an NP who specialized in Peds o...

8. Baylor Hospital

   ThisOneGotLucky replied to Best.at.heart's topic in Texas

   Hey Michigan to Texas, I, too, applied to several GN positions and actually came from out of town to attend the career fair at Baylor. I haven't heard anything yet either. There were soooo many people there. Two of the people that interviewed me were...

9. Hospital Pay

   ThisOneGotLucky replied to able2009's topic in Georgia

   I know it is! So you mean to tell me that they only hire from within? Nursing shortage my @ss. She then went on to tell me that I could apply for an externship and then apply for a residency. Why would a Dec grad want to work as an extern for skimpy ...

10. Hospital Pay

    ThisOneGotLucky replied to able2009's topic in Georgia

    I spoke to a Grady recruiter and she said that you had to already be an employee in order to be eligible for the residency. Have you heard otherwise? It kind of didn't make too much sense to me but I said ok!

    ThisOneGotLucky replied to AKAEarthAngel's topic in Ohio

    I applied for a Critical Care Fellowship and the recruiter called me back within 2 days or so. She just let me know the steps that I needed to take and just let me know some more things about the program. She said that New Grads can apply to any RN p...

    I second EVERYTHING she said above! Excellent facility...and I, too, have heard the "hiring freeze" buzz
