  1. OSU Okmulgee

    kgrl819 replied to toadfrog's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    kgrl819 replied to collegegrad08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Those are real similar scores that I and others that attended the review with me got, and we all passed. Keep doing the qbank, but I limited the amount I did a day, to help limit my distress over the...

  4. Smoking at Work.

    kgrl819 replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds to me like someone needs to set limits on her smoke breaks. I don't smoke, but like you, if someone wants to poison their body, who am I to stand in their way. I poison mine with sugar and...

    kgrl819 replied to oliviamarch's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I know it's hard to believe, but keep on working on the qtrainer and qbank , you'll be fine. I felt the same, but tried to stay calm and focused on doing the qtrainers and reading over what the...

    kgrl819 replied to LoveMy2Brats's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    OK, now stop and take a day to relax. I know that sounds awful and easier said than done, but this time last week, I was just like you. Take a break for a day or half-a day, then start answering...

  14. OSU Okmulgee

    kgrl819 replied to toadfrog's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I disagree. I just graduated from osu-okmulgee and the 3rd and 4th semester instructors are wonderful. They are extremely helpful in both theory and clinicals.It is fast paced and difficult, but...
