The best advice I can give is give an example for every answer. "Why do you want to be a nurse?" Don't just say you like taking care of people.....give an example. If you don't have any work experience, then say something like "I really enjoy takin...
I took my exam on Sat the 18th, tried the PVT 10 mins after I left (already said delivery successful) got the good popup and a million more times checking it the rest of the day and Sunday...and on Monday paid the quick results and I passed! PVT work...
Just got back to Indiana after testing in OH this morning...and I got the good popup! But I still feel horrible, not sure if I can trust it....and so more waiting begins!
Su32, we can pray for each other! I took my test this morning @ 8am! I answered 75 questions...13-15 SATA, followed by a lot of priority, delegation, and meds...no dos calc! I am freaking out! I did the PVT and got the "exam already scheduled...co...

Hi! I take the NCLEX on Feb. 18th! I'm starting to freak out....I have been studying with saunders q&a 4th ed and ATI...Not sure how to gauge how well I am doing though?? Took an ATI predictor in Dec. and got a 90% chance of passing....not how...
I have been waiting for 5 weeks now to receive my ATT for the RN NCLEX....I have called the Indiana State Board of Nursing, and they have had many different excuses.... "We have 7 weeks to process, we are still processing November's, and each case wo...
I am going to call daily starting now....but since its friday I will wait for next week...MONDAY When I called this morning I was nice, but I let the frustration leak out around my politeness....I told her it was just so upsetting that some people f...
6 Weeks of waiting now...only progress I have made it that I now have the name of the person that holds my life in her hands! "Call back next week", they said....you better believe I'm going to! But I just want to SCREAM at them....so far I have been...
I have already verified that the BON has everything as of Dec. 22nd....they said they are just processing in the order in which they were received, but thats only true that the case worker is completing them as each individual receives them....One of...
I have heard from others who have recently passed to make sure you prepare yourself for SATA formats. I personally cringe when I get these questions. But I have been using Saunders Q and A which has a alternate format option to practice these. I a...

I'm stressing out about my ATT too. I graduated December 16 and immediately applied....my friend did the same thing. She got her ATT last week, took the NCLEX yesterday, and her license is posted today! And I don't even have my ATT yet! (Indiana) ...
I took the PN NCLEX last year.....and I used ATI to study. I was scoring in the 70's in the focused content to and I passed with the minimum number of questions. Now I am waiting for my ATT to take the RN NCLEX.....so far I'm scoring the same as be...
Sometime else to do for a change of scenery.....just google free nclex questions! The questions may not be up to NCLEX standards, but the info is good. I have come across several that refreshed some of the info shoved to the far recess of my brain. ...
I didn't read all the posts, but I figure if this is repeat advise than it can only help. I'm not sure how you organize your day on the floor, but the fact on the matter is....Nurses have to remember almost more than is humanly possible and react to...
