This old nurse, age 53, graduated yesterday. I have been an LPN for 30 plus years and returned to school 2 years ago to complete my pre-reqs and then entered the LPN-RN bridge program. I had only worked in a hospital for about 1 year back in 1980, a...

I too am curious if the "trick" was ever wrong for anyone. I tested yesterday and am getting the pop up so I'm keeping my fingers crossed Good luck to anyone who is getting ready to take the boards and to everyone waiting on results
I am scheduled for the NCLEX RN July 8th and I too am about done with the Kaplan qtrainer questions. When finished with them I will continue to go over all the ones I had wrong until I get them all correct. I am also doing questions every day from th...

We still had to take both unless we had college credit for both those classes. If we did poorly on the algebra portion of the test then we were required to take pre-algebra and pass with a C before we could move on to college algebra. Some classes w...

A friend of mine took NCLEX last week ... she had 4 pharm questions and she said she never heard of any of them. She was an LPN for 3 years before doing the bridge program. She did not study extensively and did not review any pharm at all. She passed...
I think 64 is a pretty good score. I took the Kaplan class and they told us a 65% was very good. I have a friend who took her boards last week and studied only with a Kaplan book. She was getting in the 60's on her tests. She passed with 75 questions...

Hi I'm doing Kaplan right now and have been doing pretty good when I look at each answer as true/false. I saw someone had posted this suggestion a few weeks back and it has helped me a lot. SATA are so hard. One of my friends sat for boards last wee...

Good Luck I think from what I read everyone thinks they have failed when they walk out of the test center. I am waiting on my ATT to schedule a date and I'm sure I'll feel exactly like you do now when I'm done with my test. I've said a little prayer ...
We had to do the NCLEX 3500 for our last med surg class. I found the site was unavailable at times so I found this alternate address: http://studentweb.deltacollege.edu/nclexrn3500/mainMenu.do;jsessionid=B076FEC8ED601DB044EBD8C7BDE4D521 Hope this hel...
Congratulations to you ... I just graduated on Saturday. Will start the Kaplan program Monday. I have heard a lot of great things about their program, and am ready to begin. I hope to sit for the exam next month. I will post my Kaplan scores as I go ...
Thank you all so much for your kind words. Now I'm busy studying for the NCLEX. I'm excited and scared. I'm reading all the posts on the NCLEX forum ... great stuff there and a lot of pointers. NCLEX here I come .....

I used them to Clep out of Sociology. I used no other study aids except for them and passed with a very high score. I would definitely recommend, the actual Clep was pretty close to the questions they provided. I only used for about a month before my...

No technical questions like starting an IV or putting in a foley. Mostly the questions dealt with picking the best nursing action, a few questions on Insulin, signs and symptoms, etc. I worked in an office for may years before I took the exam and did...

There is nothing really to study for, it is basically a foundations of nursing type of exam. It was not hard and I believe it had a few very basic calculations. Don't fret too much, its not near as in depth as the PN NCLEX. Good luck.

It sounds like your guy has TB (tuberculosis) Our med surg text gives these diagnoses that may fit your scenario Ineffective airway clearance r/t increased secretions Imbalanced nutrition Look up TB in a med surg text and I hope this helps you some.
