  1. Difference between reading content or practicing questions for NCLEX...

    pie123 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I have been reading an NCLEX book--Kaplan coursebook. However, it is EXTREMELY boring. I have read it once, but decided to go through it again, because some of the information such as s/s of certain...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Wow super moderator...geez :stone I was just curious about what other people did & their success. I am not trying to cram everything in, I have been doing questions, as I believe I stated in my...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks for being proud of me :uhoh21: Though I'm not really sure why you are. Maybe it's because I have decided to forego my escapist tendencies & just take the freakin' test on Tuesday :) BUT,...

  5. Did you live off of student loans while in school?

    pie123 replied to wannabenursetx's topic in General Nursing

    I couldn't afford the pay as you go option. My school required like half of the tuition up front & the rest in 30

    pie123 replied to wannabenursetx's topic in General Nursing

    Amen to that

  7. Did you live off of student loans while in school?

    pie123 replied to wannabenursetx's topic in General Nursing

    How in the heck did that guy work the system? I would have loved to get foodstamps while in school, so that I could afford to eat something besides Ramen noodles & TV dinners for goodness sakes! I...

  8. Did you live off of student loans while in school?

    pie123 replied to wannabenursetx's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with EVERYTHING you have said, & respect you immensely for it! I am in the same boat. Were it not for student loans, I would not have a degree-although it is worthless until I pass...

  10. Freaking out about NCLEX

    pie123 replied to pugsweluv's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well, I hope it's enough for both of us, because I will have done roughly the same amount. It's refreshing to know that someone else will be taking their test on the same day. What time is yours? Mine...

  11. Question about "fill in the blank" Q's

    pie123 replied to Kiwi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I had this same question once, I think I posted it here & from what I recall, no one at that time had any fill-in-the-blank math questions, they had multiple choice

  12. Problems with my Saunder's CD

    pie123 replied to RainDreamer's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I have no advice, but a similar problem. Sometimes on mine, I will submit my answer, & then no rationale comes up at all. The other day this happened through half of my test, then all of a sudden,...

  13. Freaking out about NCLEX

    pie123 replied to pugsweluv's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My test is on the 31st also. How many questions are you able to cover in a day in addition to reading your book? Will you have completed 3,000 by the time you test? I will be close, or right at

  14. Just called CA BRN

    pie123 replied to ZZTopRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think it does depend on who you talk to. I am in Nevada & I registered for the exam in California. Every time I called the office, I was told something different. Luckily, things have worked out...

  15. Just need a little reassurance

    pie123 replied to ckh23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My friend took the Kaplan Readiness test & got an 83% & failed NCLEX. Another friend took it & got a 65% & passed the NCLEX. The difference b/t the 2 ladies is that one (the 65% one)...

    pie123 replied to Bevi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good luck to you also, & you're

  17. Difference between reading content or practicing questions for NCLEX...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I HATE CRUTCH WALKING! I can never get it straight. 'Up with the good, down with the bad.' The NCLEX is bad, so I say down with IT! But, I noticed you said you were going to search for info about...

  18. Taking NCLEX tomorrow..how should I spend the next 24 hours???

    pie123 replied to newgrad2005's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am digging this plan of yours! I might just do this

  19. Saunders Qs & Nclex Qs....how similar are they?

    pie123 replied to Bevi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    First of all, let me say how ironic it is that you pose a question about time management & studying. I am SUCKING bigtime at this! I would also like some input from someone about this. I have...

  20. Difference between reading content or practicing questions for NCLEX...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am actually seriously thinking about rescheduling my test for the 2nd week of June. I stopped reading the text, & decided to do just questions, so I want to (hopefully) be sure to do at least...

  21. Difference between reading content or practicing questions for NCLEX...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am so glad you all are responding! It is so refreshing to know that I am not the only one who finds reading a book all day (or even 10 minutes) extremely boring! So far, the questions seem to be...

  22. Difference between reading content or practicing questions for NCLEX...

    pie123 replied to pie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am SUPPOSED to take it May 31st, but I may change it to the 2nd week of June b/c I want to do at least 3,000 practice questions & by that time, I will have reached that goal. What about

  23. Saunders Qs & Nclex Qs....how similar are they?

    pie123 replied to Bevi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I would recommend them. Mainly because I have found that they contain information that is not in my Kaplan Coursebook, or they reinforce information that I have read. Plus, you can carry them around...

  24. Saunders Qs & Nclex Qs....how similar are they?

    pie123 replied to Bevi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I have always heard to do at least 100/day. I know someone who did 300 questions/day (150 in the morning & 150 at night) for 2 weeks. I also have a Saunders CD. I don't think their questions...
