  1. How far would you commute for your first job?

    Guest321574 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Had an interview last week wayyyy outside of my metro area. Its about 120 miles round trip, and took about 1h 15m going and 1h 30min coming home (early rush hour). I felt really fatigued after that...

  2. How far would you commute for your first job?

    Guest321574 replied to Guest321574's topic in First Year After Licensure

    When your car gave out, what did you do? Were you able to use public transportation? I'm not technically unemployed, but I'm not certain of the security of my position, nor is it what I would be...

  3. How far would you commute for your first job?

    Guest321574 replied to Guest321574's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thanks for all the input :) I'm hoping on one hand not to get the offer (I actually won't know for a few weeks) so I don't have to decide! Good point about the condition of my car. I have an 05...

  4. Really bad test questions!!

    Guest321574 replied to ~FutureNurse~'s topic in General Students

    The test does collect all urine during a 24-hour period. The point of discarding the urine prior to 9am (or whatever time) is because that urine was produced BEFORE the start time/blood draw. Its...

  5. To use Kaplan or not?

    Guest321574 replied to alsrn10's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm in the same situation as you, so hoping someone has advice. I got a pretty high (over 1000) score on HESI, and decided to not do Kaplan. But now I am second guessing that decision, just because...

  7. Baby Fever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Guest321574 replied to loving&sincere's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thanks, it wasn't really ever an option for me, I felt such guilt that I bf'd my daughter for only 3 months. There really wasnt anything that was going to stop me this time! Also, I cant afford...

  10. Baby Fever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Guest321574 replied to loving&sincere's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    All I can say is that I've been there and done that. I found out I was pregnant the last week of november during my first semester of school. My son was born the first week of August, and I returned...

  12. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    Guest321574 replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    When you go to orientation, just buy the shirts and jacket. You can then get navy scrubs from any scrub store. The pants are horrible and tapered (at least thats what they offered us.) Any pair of...

  13. Trouble with getting a job

    Guest321574 replied to fxg002's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I would absolutely LOVE to join MLH after graduation. However, I've put in applications to both of the general postings for GNs, as well as a few staff nurse positions, and have got no response. I...

  14. Exit HESI and NLN Exam.

    Guest321574 replied to Bortaz's topic in General Students

    There is another NLN exam, our class is taking it in April. We also took an exit HESI, I think our class average was 700-something. Its not required for us to pass to graduate though. I think its...

  15. Reliability of HESI for NCLEX prediction

    Guest321574 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My class took a HESI exam recently, and I did pretty well. I got a nice cushion over the recommended score of 950. But I was really freaking out about it (I was in tears days before taking it)...

    Guest321574 replied to Guest321574's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  18. St.Christophers?

    Guest321574 posted a topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I'm graduating in May, and I applied there couple of weeks ago for a position in the Continuing Care Nursery (1 app for night shift, and 1 app for day). Yesterday received a rejection letter for the...

  19. St.Christophers?

    Guest321574 replied to Guest321574's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thanks for that info. Do you mind my asking, when did you apply? Was it after graduation, or close to? I'm just wondering if that had an impact. The position I applied for specifically said RN...

  20. Students: Prefer morning or evening clinicals?

    Guest321574 replied to ashandjune's topic in General Students

    I preferred the one evening clinical I had over my morning ones, mainly because there was no AM care to do. Not having to do baths, make beds, etc. allowed me to focus more on learning meds, reading...

  22. Question about the CCP nursing program

    Guest321574 replied to nco781's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Ah I see. That makes more sense I suppose, because it was unfair towards BA candidates since the most they could get was 8 pts. I think they thought it was helpfulg but not making them take the AHT,...

  23. Question about the CCP nursing program

    Guest321574 replied to nco781's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I agree, go to the information session, you'll then get a paper that explains exactly the point breakdown, you can decide at that point which category will maximize your points based on your specific...
