  1. Midwestern University 2020

    Congratulations to everyone that got an interview. I’m on the waitlist but given the numbers, 75 interviewed for 34 spots doesn’t give me much hope. I only wish great things for those that got interviewed. Familytime thanks for the update. I was cur...
  2. Midwestern University 2020

    So, did you get in for the 2020 class? and if so when did they notify you since you already went for an interview in August.
  3. Midwestern University 2020

    I also received the waitlist email and I applied in June 2019. It would be nice to be considered for an interview for the 2020 class, but I wouldn’t mind if they automatically rolled over my app to the next class, 2021, without having to reapply if I...
  4. Need ur best advice .. NCSBN or Kaplan?

    It's about same price as Kaplan and also has money back guarantee if you don't pass first time, but about 80 or 90 percent something pass on first try. Check it out online - just google hurst review online. Ncsbn was about 60 bucks, but I hardly use...
  5. Need ur best advice .. NCSBN or Kaplan?

    Ncsbn didn't help me at all.... There's a free qbank app that I downloaded on my iPhone, that's from Kaplan.... I would recommend hurst review online. From what I recall it took me about 6 weeks to complete that. I took it one time and I passed wit...
  6. Starting to get discouraged

    You're right... But, New grads are not determined on skill set. They are picked based on school they came from, poss recommendations, and how well they interview.
  7. Starting to get discouraged

    It's sad, but usually true... Males are more likely to be hired than Females as an rn. So your chances might be better. Plus you have some CNa exp. go for the RN if you have the opportunity. The thought of having had to take two nclex exams which are...
  8. Have not heard back!

    It also doesn't hurt to ask how many other candidates are they considering and how many are they planning to hire. Those are all valid questions to ask. Again, gl!
  9. Have not heard back!

    Just call the nurse recruiter/hr to check status and/or when you should expect to hear back from them. When do they plan on making their decision, how will you know of their decision- will u get a phone call/email, etc. they're used to getting calls ...
  10. LAC+USC interview new grad RN

    Well make sure you don't say that. they will train you, so don't worry about that. I think interview is based on basic nursing questions. If you passed nclex, then you should be able to answer the interview questions. Be yourself - show personality,...
  11. Validity of Pearson VUE Trick...

    If it says delivery successful and they didn't get the good pop up then unfortunately, they didnt pass. If it says pending, then they might be in luck and their test is still being reviewed. I took mine in San Dimas also and by the time I got home r...
  12. Just Started College

    I'm not sure about not making any friends. You need at least one friend in the program that knows what you're going through so you can go to them for support or else you may quit. But don't let them get to you, eventually they will come around. One t...
  13. Validity of Pearson VUE Trick...

  16. LAC+USC interview new grad RN

  17. LAC+USC interview new grad RN

    That's only if you're a current county employee. If so, you need to contact HR of the dept you work for. If not, then those requirements don't apply to you.
  18. LAC+USC interview new grad RN

    Wow! That's super fast! Congrats! Did u start on the floor already and is it 8 hour or 12 hour shifts?
  19. LAC+USC interview new grad RN

    Hi Meiniaks! Did u get appt for medical clearance yet? I went for fingerprints 12/19 and still no response... BTW, it took about 9-10 weeks until I received the letter from HR indicating I passed the civil service interview. 4/25 - applied 9/5 - c...
  20. Hi Sashimi! I will have my civil service interview soon and I was wondering how did your interview go? Do you have any additional tips to share? What band did you get and were you offered a position yet? Thanks for your help!
  21. Kaiser New Grad 2012

    I'm not sure if anyone is still following this thread, but I was offered to start with new grad at Kaiser LAMC and have started the background/drug screen process and I was wondering, for those who have started and finished, how long did it take to c...
