  1. Interviewing questions?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to PA_CoffeeFreak's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Excellent questions. I had read that sometimes they will also ask you clinical questions too! I just want to be as prepared as I can be and now I'll feel so much more confident by rehearsing some of...

  2. To Those of You That Have Take the Nclex RN Multi. Times

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to female12233's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Don't give up! Give yourself time to heal from this latest attempt but refocus. This is something you CAN do! I prayed for guidance. All the time. Without having any kind of spiritual perspective...

  3. Poll for those who have already taken NCLEX..

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to lpn2rnMay2005's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    1. How many questions did you take on NCLEX? 265 the first time and 75 the second time. 2. What study materials did you use? Did you take a test review course? NCLEX 1: Saunders. No review...

  4. What should I do????????????

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to runmommy1's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I would. If my hubby were going off to war and I had 4 kids, I'd definitely take time off to care for my family

  5. Stick with it... it's worth it

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to RNmb's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There's so much difficulty that people are having now in finding a job or feeling as though they're doing well so it's nice to hear that some people do have a positive outcome lol as a new grad! Do...

  6. School in one state, NCLEX in another?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to meme0102002's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Actually you don't have to change licensing if you take your boards in Texas. According to the Texas BON, you'll need to do a few things before registering for your test....

  7. Taking my boards in 3 weeks!!! Support Needed

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to thenurse2b08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Don't feel like an idiot because you're not. If you read some of the posts from people you'll find some really talented and smart people...who failed the NCLEX. After taking the NCLEX twice, I...

  8. Should I reschedule?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to maman2zoe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    For question trainers 6 and 7, the goal is at least 60%. So... you are actually within range of passing even according to Kaplan. Take your readiness when you can and see where you are. Here are my...

  9. kaplan can be depressing

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to jerzie0820's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The fact that Kaplan was so hard was the reason why I chose to use it. The first time I took the NCLEX the questions seemed way too hard in comparison with what I used to prepare with so I...

  10. Kaplan Qbank scores 4 days before...

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to Whiterabbitchaser's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You must find it within yourself to calm down. If you begin to freak out now, you'll have an anxiety attack on the day of your test. When I first began taking Kaplan my q bank score was about the...

  11. about linda charity book

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to ps_09's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just took the NCLEX this past Wednesday and it helped so much. Especially since the vast majority of my questions were priority/delegation. I felt confident knowing that I had prepared with...

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to nursejoy23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congrats

  13. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It blocked you because you passed! This happened to me too. I came home and after a few hours (the Pearson Vue website must say "Delivery Successful") I did the same thing. The message that popped...

  14. Worried for my NCLEX result...

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to bryanb_2003ph's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Apparently for anyone taking their boards in CA that is the norm. I've heard that it can take 4 weeks at least to find out your results. Do your best to distract yourself this next week :) I know...

  15. Here's my story...

    PA_CoffeeFreak posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't anticipate taking 2 years to pass the NCLEX. The first time I took it, I had studied haphazardly and let my anxiety get the best of me. I felt so much pressure to pass. My husband is a...

  16. Seriously need encouragment and advice

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to Almwork's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I had to battle my emotions on a daily basis. Not only did I feel like a failure but quite often during NCLEX studying all of the failures I've ever had in my life flashed in my head. It was brutal....

  17. July 22nd testers!!!

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to nursejoy23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Go on to your state board and see if you can click on the license verification. That's how it is for PA. I clicked on license verification then searched for myself by name LOL. Sure enough, my...

  18. July 22nd testers!!!

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to nursejoy23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Jen check your state board! I did the Pearsonvue thing and it worked for me because my name is on the PA state board of

  19. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to brichielpn08's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The Pearsonvue Glitch worked!! I tried to re-register for the exam a few hours after taking it yesterday and today I found my name on the PA state board of nursing!! wooo

  20. Were you ready?

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to RNindmaking's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I posted up a very similar question a few days before my exam and you know I don't know that anyone truly ever feels ready. Despite studying since Jan 09 and doing everything that I did -- when my...

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to cdb6c's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  22. Seriously need encouragment and advice

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to Almwork's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Listen I actually went past the 2 year mark after graduating and found out that I passed today. It is most definitely possible to pass but you must be prepared. The first time I took the NCLEX, I...

  23. Taking NCLEX for second time....very scared!

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to mkkew's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My first NCLEX was sometime in May 2008. I didn't retake it sooner because of my finances. Couldn't afford to. So, it's actually been over a year. I wouldn't suggest waiting that long. I probably...

  24. Kaplan CD similar to NCLEX??

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to b, bsn09's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks :) Another important thing is how to best manage your anxiety. When I was studying for the exam, I would listen to white noise in the background (rain or ocean sounds on YouTube) to distract...

  25. Taking NCLEX for second time....very scared!

    PA_CoffeeFreak replied to mkkew's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took mine today for the 2nd time and the experience felt completely different. It seems as though we are both living parallel lives. The first time I took the NCLEX, I had all 265 questions. I...
