I don't know how else to title this really. I have been on two interviews. At each one, there are questions that come up where I just do not have an answer. I just graduated, so no nursing experience other than school/clinicals. I have been asked abo...

I was so worried that entire time I was in school that I would not be able to find a job after graduation. I had read all the posts about what a difficult time people were having finding jobs and I just knew it was going to be like that for me too. B...

Most of the books I used to study came from the library. Here is what I used: Kaplan NCLEX Review Saunders 5th edition Exam Cram Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment by LaCharity I didn't pay anything for any of my study materials and I did not...

Who are we to discourage someone from their dreams? It has always been my "dream" to become a nurse. There I said it. I wish I would have done it the first time I went to college right out of high school instead of getting the degree I ended up with...

I just wanted to tell you both congratulations! I graduated this past December from LCCC and it's an awesome program. Good luck to you guys!

ADN with a BS in another field.

Thank you everyone! To the poster who asked, I applied at the end of December. This hospital does three rounds of interviews, HR, manager, peer interview so the whole process took some time. I am so excited to start! Oh and I am in Ohio btw.

This is sooo true! I have already seen this happening with people that I graduated with. People who barely passed nursing school, who go out drinking every night and brag about it on fb, they can get a job, but I cannot. I knew all along that when it...

Thanks for the replies. I will definitely check out that book. I did try to answer honestly, I did say I never made a med error. I also was asked about a time where something affected me personally and patient care suffered. Ugh I said well that has ...

Thanks for the replies. Actually these interviews were with the hiring managers! I actually felt my HR interview went better. Both times they have used a booklet of questions that they said they are required to ask of everyone. So of course some don'...

I had only one math and it was adding up a patient's total output! I was thinking geez I am doing so bad that they are giving me a basic addition question?!?Hope you get your official results soon!

My results were on the board of nursing's website on Wednesday morning (took the test Monday afternoon), before my quick results were even available. I'm sure you passed! :w00t:

I did the same! Finished at 2:30, raced home to check, and as soon I got home, around 3:00, I got the good pop-up. I think you are fine as long as it says "delivery successful" on your Pearsonvue account. Congrats!!

I was doing the same right before my nclex. I even did all 295 alternate format questions on the Saunders CD one day. I swear I only got 1/3 of them right! I was soooo worried about them on the nclex. I actually think the questions on the nclex weren...

I had my third interview for a position last Wednesday. How long do you think I should wait before e-mailing the nurse manager to follow up? I am driving myself bonkers waiting to hear if I got this job or not. Should I e-mail her at the end of this ...

Congratulations!!

75 questions. Felt like I was guessing on a lot of them. About 15 SATA, one math, one picture, one put in order. Got home and did the PVT (3 times now) and got the good pop up every time! :yelclap: Hope it's right! I was done in less than an hour. I ...

2/29 update...I passed! Just saw my license number on the BON's website!

Lol, no I don't work so don't feel bad. I tend to do things in excess, so I'm sure 50/day will be just fine.

I used Saunders to review content. From the library, I checked out: LaCharity Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment, Kaplan NCLEX-RN, NCLEX Made Easy, and Exam Cram. I also used Nclex 3500. Also the CD's that came with each book. I did 250-300 q...

Good luck to you today!

Thank you everyone! Still waiting for my official results. Other people I graduated with said that they saw they passed the following day on the BON's website. So hopefully I will find out something today.

Good luck to you! Sounds like you are well prepared!

Is it Mucomyst?

And I don't know why. I'm not usually an emotional person. But everytime I think about taking my nclex next week I get all teary. It has been such a long hard road for me to get to this point. Actually the only easy thing for me was the actual school...
