  2. I took my Nclex exam yesterday!

    I too had 75 questions. I thought for sure I failed with all the SATA questions that I got. Take a deep breath. Let it out. And Relax. More then likely you passed. It seems as if more pass at 75 questions then fail. I know its hard to do, but ...
  3. Illinois Nurses for Obama???

    He may be a junior senator for the state of illinois now, but he was in the Illinois state senate before he ran for the US Senate. So he did have a hand in what our situation is like now. Dont get me wrong I do like Obama. I come from a working cl...
  4. Salary to expect as a new grad nurse

    I live in north central IL and the area seems to pay new grad rns anywhere from 19 to 22 per hour base pay and then most of the hospitals pay 3 dollar shift diff for midnights. Its not bad for the area since the cost of living is lower then Chicago.

  8. How far did you travel to take the NCLEX?

    I traveled about 60-65 miles away. That was the nearest testing center. I had to wait for 3 weeks till I could test at that center.
  9. Passed NCLEX-RN in IL, How Long til I get my Licence?

    I took mine on June 13th and still have not gotten my paperwork yet. I got my unofficial results with Pearson Vue, but nothing from the BON yet. I checked their website to see if anything was on there and its not yet. So if anyone has the answer ...

  13. is the kaplan review course worth it?

    I didnt take a live face to face review. I think it is all in how you study and how you learn. What type of learner are you? DO you learn by reading, hearing it in front of you, applying it with programs? I had the Kaplan review book, I read some...

  19. NCLEX turned me into an idiot 2day....

    We all feel used and abused after that test. That is the quickest why to having your brain go into overdrive and then just meltdown. you probably did better than you think you did. I felt like an absolute failure after the test. That I just waste...
  20. Feeling like failure. Not happy in my life.

    Life has a way of kicking us in the rear. Dont give up. If nursing is your passion then keep on going. Take a deep and relax until you find out for sure. Many have passed with that number. You may have surprised yourself!!
  21. Kaplan NCLEX-RN Strategy Practice Exam

    I used the CD and got a 74% and passed the NCLEX with 75 questions. I think the key to the NCLEX is repetition of questions that you do to practice and understanding what the question is asking.
  22. Wedding: Before or After NCLEX?

    Well I would say if you have a lot of help planning your wedding then I would do the wedding. But since you are still in school and if you dont have a lot of help I would wait until after the nclex. The last year in school can be rough, time consum...

  24. Post-NCLEX, pre-results Anxiety

    Well keeping your mind off it is easier said then done. I went out for dinner right after the test and then went boat shopping. I was trying to imagine what I am gonna be able to purchase with my new RN income. The following day my husband took me...
  25. just took nclex and feeling down

    I see in the future that it will be Lori RN. I thought for sure that I failed. Nobody really understands that unless they took that awful test. I was so nervous this morning to check the results that I had my husband do it for me. It was just too...
