  1. People who have taken the NCLEX r/o please

    georgia peaches replied to jetta1's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I found the most helpful books to be the Kaplan review (2003-2004-2005 whatever the year is) for test-taking strageties and explaining how the test works. The best help for NCLEX questions was the...

  2. Critical thinking exercise

    georgia peaches replied to Teacher Sue's topic in General Nursing

    FIRST I would try to rouse the patient - see if she is simply napping, or if there has been a decline in consciousness (scenario says nothing about level of consciousness). SECOND I would check the...

  3. Just found out I failed boards and lost job in L&D

    georgia peaches replied to Emilys Mom's topic in First Year After Licensure

    The NCSBN states that the NCLEX test is adaptive. Each student receives questions drawn from a much larger 'pool' of questions, each of pre-determined difficulty. The difficulty of each question...

  4. Accelerated ADN?

    georgia peaches replied to StacyC417's topic in General Students

    Locally, the class continues through the summer without a break. What this really means is that the Level II is *super* busy, because the school semester is shorter, and you have to cram everything in...

  5. I got all of the test questions

    georgia peaches replied to whinnymay's topic in First Year After Licensure

    The NCSBN states that the NCLEX test is adaptive. Each student receives questions drawn from a much larger 'pool' of questions, each of pre-determined difficulty. The difficulty of each question...

    georgia peaches replied to MrsLePew's topic in Florida Nursing

    Here is a link to the FL BON State Practice Act: http://www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa/nursing/info_rules-06-03.pdf Hope this help..... (It is a link to a .pdf file)

  7. DUI/ licensing

    georgia peaches replied to swampmutt's topic in General Nursing

    I can speak for the experience of myself and of 2 classmates who just graduated, and what we found out. In Florida, you must disclose ANY criminal record, including DUI, prior to licensing. A...

  8. studying for boards

    georgia peaches replied to obnurse2004's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree that the Kaplan book/CD is excellent. In an informal study group through levels 2-4, we all used the Lippincott NCLEX review questions to study for exams (since the book is arranged by...

  11. Florida Hospital Health College ??

    georgia peaches replied to Louisepug's topic in Florida Nursing

  12. Another NCLEX thread

    georgia peaches replied to JuicyJem's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Tomorrow and Friday I finish a review course; then I sit for the exam on Saturday morning. I just keep telling myself that the test is designed to be as hard as possible for everyone who takes it....

  13. Ok that hurt

    georgia peaches replied to LovKeisha's topic in General Nursing

    You took the words right out of my mouth!!!

  14. Relocating to Largo, Fl. need info

    georgia peaches replied to kookyscientist's topic in General Nursing

    I agree w/ Tweety - the pay sounds a little on the high side, though you can make that much as a 'core employee' (not a traveler/contract) and defer benefits and such. Largo is a strangely-shaped city...

  15. Another NCLEX thread

    georgia peaches replied to JuicyJem's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm scheduled to sit for the exam on Saturday, January 17th. Right now I'm waist-deep in review review review and all of the study guides, etc. Hopefully, I am prepared enough after going through the...

  16. question for new December grads, old and new

    georgia peaches replied to PMHNP10's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know about Texas, but here in Florida the time varies. I graduated December 20th, and mailed my application to the state on December 13th, as our school instructed. I received permission to...

  17. Are you a member of the NSNA?

    georgia peaches replied to nursepearl's topic in General Students

    I was/am a member, and attended state conferences, but never national. I couldn't begin to cover everything that I have learned from the conferences alone....from learning that there are scores of...

  18. To borrow or not borrow (Stafford loans)

    georgia peaches replied to bancho's topic in General Nursing

    Don't borrow unless you just *have* to. I graduated with my Physical Therapy degree in 1995, along with an $18k loan balance. I'm still paying on it, but it shouldn't be but about another 2 years...

  19. Adn-bsn

    georgia peaches replied to TLC RN's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, I have 2 bachelor's - and now an ADN (as usual, had to do things in reverse.) The first 2 degrees were in Music and then Physical Therapy. I start school in January for an MSN. As far as...

  20. Pinellas Technical Education Center???

    georgia peaches replied to GlowBear500's topic in Florida Nursing

    I live in St Petersburg, and understand that PTEC has an excellent reputation locally for their LPN graduates. I am just finishing an Associate's RN locally, and had the opportunity to work with some...
