Tweety and Wendy, Thanks for the responses. I had a big argument with him over this, since he kept saying that I am not trying hard enough to grab any opportunity available, and that highly successful...
I used Saunders review book, and reviewed alot of my own notes for subject matter. I know some of my peers took the Kaplan review, some found it very helpful, others didn't. I think it's good for...
I have applied to mostly jobs stating that they are accepting new grads, or considering new grads, or even those that say experience 'preferred', but not the ones that say experience required. My...
Queens has some nice areas, and it will definitely be less expensive than living in Manhattan. The other reason I think Manhattan would be much more expensive is the fact that people I know say most...

Anyone here work at Lincoln Hospital, or have any info about the hospital? I am thinking of applying, but I've heard it used to be a bad hospital, with bad reputation for some reason. But I don't know...
I understanding where you are coming from. I graduated almost a year ago, and had failed NCLEX first time, but managed to pass. I was also a good student, but was very nervous the first time around,...
Thanks to everyone for their advice and encouragement. I do think they seem to make students think it's very easy to get an entry level nursing job. I think it may be easy for some students, but not...
I graduated nursing school almost 7 mos ago. I first failed NCLEX, but I finally passed recently. I didn't take the test right away when I first graduated because I wasn't ready, and had other family...
I don't know about that. Some people have told me that working as a GN helped them answer some of the priority questions on the NCLEX, plus some med questions. But I know that may not have guaranteed...
