I was just offered an interview at OU. Interviewing in early October, keeping my fingers crossed as I do love their program! I'll keep you posted! :)

Wait listed

Also interviewing on Saturday, getting pretty nervous! Good luck to everyone! :)

Aiesram, I was originally pre-nursing at my university when I did not get accepted to the nursing program. For a few reasons, I decided not to apply again and changed my major to dietetics with the plan to apply to accelerated second degree programs...

Some of the "who would you see first" are very similar to Kaplan and others are fairly easy to pick out the stable patients and eliminate them. Overall, Kaplan did an amazing job preparing me for the NCLEX and you're probably going to walk out of th...

JohannaR: I wanted to post my Kaplan scores because I had checked all nurses prior to my NCLEX to see what other people had scored and passed and all I could find was a couple people who said they scored in the 70s which really freaked me out. I kept...

Diagnostic: 52% Readiness: 57% QT1: 60% QT2: 46% QT3: 59% QT4: 50% QT5: 52% QT6: 54% QT7: 57% Qbank average (I did every question): 60% Took my exam this morning, 75 questions and got the "good" pop up. I thought the NCLEX was actually easier than K...

Took my NCLEX this morning, oh boy what a relief!!!!!! Came home and did the trick and got the "good" pop-up...really hoping that thing is accurate! I had 75 questions and so glad not a question more! Good luck to the rest of you, you're going to roc...

I am in the process of applying to UDM's second degree program and I was wondering what the GPA of those accepted is usually around. -Magen

Beautiful prayer! Thank you so much for reminding me to bring Jesus with me in a couple of weeks! AMEN!

I think the registration process varies with each state BON. I'm in Michigan and I just graduated in August. I'll just let you know how I went about scheduling my exam. First step started in June of this year (2 months prior to graduating). I file...

Taking mine 2 weeks from today. FREAKING OUT! I need to get off of allnurses and get back to studying ahhhhhhhhhhh GOOD LUCK, EVERYONE! We can do this. RN status is just around the corner (Is it weird that I'm excited to change my username to "Magen...

Jessnic - most nurses do not get to choose their own schedules, especially right out of school with no seniority. There is some flexibility but a lot of it depends on the job setting and staffing levels/demand You're usually hired for a specific shi...

I am a new BSN grad applying for basically every job out there lol A particular health system in my area consistently asks the question "Without committing to an amount, what is the minimum salary amount you would accept for this position?" I don't r...

I graduated from an accelerated BSN program last month. I think there is a bit of a generalization out there about accelerated programs but I don't think it is having a severe impact on the hiring process. At this point, I'm still about a month awa...

As a brand new nurse, I can agree with the above posters that nursing school is NOTHING like the nursing profession. Don't second guess yourself because of the countless projects, care plans, presentations, etc. because that is all just a part of ge...

I am currently in a Kaplan course and really enjoy it so for. Obviously, I can't tell you if its worth the money yet but I've always heard great things about Kaplan. It is true, the Kaplan course is not designed for the student who needs content. ...

Definitely wait for the official offer

It is bad but it is not that bad. UofM just lifted their hiring freeze last week so I'm hoping that's a good sign of growth in the area You may not make as much as you're making in Florida, but you'll find a job with decent to good pay. I'm a new g...

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! I graduate in August and just sent my application into the Michigan Board of Nursing! Can't wait to be in your shoes! And best of luck for finding a job!!!!

I am currently in UM-AA accelerated 2nd career program with our last nursing exam just 41 days from now!!!!! :D The last 11 months have definitely been busy but 100% doable. I am lucky enough not to have prior commitments but there are plenty of peo...

UM-Ann Arbor wears navy blue with a patch on our left sleeve

the university of michigan - ann arbor university of detroit mercy (private, expensive, but easy acceptance if you apply early) oakland university - rochester, MI (long wait)

I'm in a similar boat. I graduate in August and have extreme nerves about finding a job, let alone my dream job! I say apply for every OB position you can along with general med/surg just in case. If it gets to the point that you aren't getting cal...

Hey All, congratulations to everyone who got in!! I posted to this thread last year when I was looking into schools and haven't really been back since. I was accepted a couple of months ago and was interested to meet the class. Where is everyone pla...
