@HBaum I passed the physical it wasn;t as bad as expected. I am glad its over. I wish you nothing but success.

The Navy. My husband is AD Navy and he is saying the same thing. What branch did you apply for?

@ HBaum thank you for you response. I go in the morning and pray that all goes well. I will let everyone know sometime tomorrow. I have been so nervous all day today. I am just ready to get it over with. I hope I have a good experience like you.

@ LunahRN LOL. This will be some great conversation.

@midinphx thank you for preparing me for the details. I would have been caught off guard with someone watching me voiding. lol

Thank you so much.

I am in the process of joining the military and I have children. I just want to know what is it like with having children and being in the military as a nurse?

@traumaRUs My husband is active duty. My mom has agreed to go wherever I am stationed and she is truly a huge help. Do you regret joining and how many children do you have?

@midinphx I truly appreciate your response. My oldest child will be 12 this year and my youngest is two. I am a mother of four and my husband is military also. I feel that all of the benefits will outweigh everything, but just concerned about the k...

I am feeling the same way. I don't know what I am going to do. I am not a quitter, but I am not really happy as I thought I would be.

This was very helpful. Thank you very much.

I am planning on submitting my application this year. I am curious on what to expect as a Navy Nurse. Is working in the hospital on a Naval base similar as the civilian world? Meaning do they do 12 hour shifts? Also how many times have you been dep...

@cmo701 I live in Florida. I am planning to take 2 classes. How about you?

@lishahb13 I am also starting October 24.

lol I will tell the doc who referred me. If my stomach keeps feeling this was I definitely will. I am going to nights in a few weeks. I work out on my off days consistently to help alleviate stress. Working out is like my outlet. I really love my ...

I feel the same way. I am five weeks into my orientation and My stomach gets upset for quite awile. It feels like its tied in knot, and no I can't even have a bowel movement because of the nerves. Everyone says I am doing fine. I look confident bu...

I went to nursing school with 3 children and found out I was pregnant in my first semester of nursing school. It was very hard but I was very determined to finish. Your motivation will give you the boost you need to pursue your dreams. I was at cl...

PVT WORKED FOR ME. I checked as soon as I went to the car after taking the NCLEX-RN and I received the good pop up. The next day my results was posted on the Board of Nursing.

I just want to start off by saying God never fails!!!!!!! I got the good pop up. A lot of SATA, meds, and priorities. I am now waiting for the official results. I am praising God

Kaplan is very similar to the NCLEX in my opinion. Lacharity was really great in ptparing me for priorityzing and delegating questions. Saunders was great for content. I had a lot of endocrine on my exam so I am glad I look over that area. And as ...

It's official I am a RN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PVT works.

My primary resources was Kaplan. If you are using Kaplan don't worry about the scores just focus on the questions and rationales. I also used Saunders 4e, but I reviewed certain chapters like GI, Endocrine, a little maternity, and Fluid and Electro...

I believe that the best way to prepare for the NCLEX is to do as many questions as you can and understand the rationales. I did not realize how important practice questions were until I was actually taking the test. I had a lot of medication. SO ST...

Does anyone recommend a certain instructor for Micro at SPC? Please let me know if you have any advice.
