We do not check glucose on our non-diabetics before or after treatment.

I also am against RIC & have 3 intact sons. During school I (against my initial will) did watch a circ. I am actually glad I did so that I have 1st hand knowledge when arguing against RIC. It was hard to watch & I eventually want to get into L&D & worry about this being part of the job but looking back, I am glad that I have the experience.

Yes, LOVE the book. I think every female should read it! I know my daughter will once she gets her period.

I couldn't agree more with Nurseynightnight! I learned to check mine after reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility. It is amazing what we DON'T know about our own bodies!!

Need help from experienced RNs. I am a new grad RN working on a cardiac telemetry unit. I am trying to form a cheat sheet of all cardiac/HTN meds that require counting pulse for 1 min or blood pressure check before administering. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

These are great guys! Thanks for posting.

The trick worked for me! Official results say "Passed"!! I'm an RN! Woo Hoo!!!

I took Nclex today at 12:30. I got 75 questions. I checked Pearsonvue 2 hours later & it said "delivery successful" however, I couldn't bring myself to try to register until a couple of hrs after that. Anyway, I got the good pop up & am super excited but nervous about getting too excited yet. I'll let you know when I get the "official" results!

Finally worked up the courage to do the trick.............. Got the good pop up!!!!!!! I really hope this trick is accurate!!

Thanks! I had 75 questions. 12 SATA, 13 Priority & 6 other alternative questions. I'm so glad that's over but not sure I think it went. I'm too scared to try the trick. Maybe I will later tonight.

Hello everyone! I'm scheduled to take my NCLEX in about 3 hours & I'm !! I did Kaplan review & some of LaCharity. I just talked to Kaplan & she told me that a score of 67% on the readiness test (what I made) shows a 98% chance of passing Nclex 1st time. I have heard other peple say that their Kaplan instructor told them it was the question trainers that actually showed your chance of passing. So I'm wondering which is the better guide? (Made a 64 on qt6 & 61 on qt7). I was hoping to score higher on those last 2 trainers. I think I'm just a bundle of nerves & looking for a way to freak out:uhoh3: Good luck to anyone else taking NCLEX today!!!

I take my NCLEX RN this Thursday. Does anyone know how long after completion of the exam I should wait before trying "the trick?" Thanks!!

I've wondered this also. Interested in other's input.

Thanks for the replies guys. Keep 'em coming, I'm interested in hearing about as many experiences as I can.

I am trying to figure out where to do my preceptorship. If you have graduated from Jeff State or are in your last semester at Jeff State, will you list where you did you preceptor (hospital & area/floor) & what you're experience was (like did you feel you covered a lot of skills, had a good preceptor, etc.) Thanks so much!!
