Apparently not enough because the majority of the people in this field are still overweight. but eh, but that's true across the whole country so it's probably not just us.

Yep it works. My computer shut off at 75 questions. Even though I got the good pop-up, I was still not convinced. My name was on the state of board website 4 days later. Hooray!

The earliest date that I could sign up was 3 weeks away. However, I don't think all that studying did me any good. In fact, it made me even more nervous. At that point, I remember telling myself, "you've been been preparing for this exam for 2.5 y...

I mainly just did the CD practice questions from Saunders & LWW.

I took the NCLEX-RN this morning and the computer shut off at 75 question. I only got about 10 SATAs and a bunch of drug questions I've never heard off. The last 5 questions were all priority questions (who would you assess first). I'm hearing tha...

I am graduating in December with a BSN. While most of my peers have already decided where they wanted to go (OB, Peds, ER, etc)....I have no bloody idea! None of the units have caught my interest that much. How will I know something is my calling?...

Well, just look at this picture. I just tell myself this is where I'll end up if I don't graduate. Then I go straight back to my books.

We are allowed to give the meds by ourselves after citing the following to our clinical instructor: -the purpose of the med -the route -the correct dosage -the onset and duration -the side effects -the required assessment (vitals, lab values, etc) If...

I would put it in the bank and start saving for graduate school tuition

I'll have a debt of 6k. But I can easily pay that off in a year.

I would be a real estate agent

Warning: Rant My classmates and I were assigned to do a teaching presentation on COPD (there are 4 of us). We were supposed to turn in our research material to the group leader last Friday. One of the girl didn't follow the instructor's guidelines (s...

we got full points 30/30. I don't intend to tell the teacher any time soon. she may change our grades. As for the incompetent girl, she did well. She talked like she knew the material. I was pretty relieved.

just another student

Even the group leader strongly suggested me to hold my tongue, which is why I'm here ranting. "I'm doing this for me. I'm doing this for me."

yes, we're all getting the same grade.

1) you need to study earlier than 3 days prior to an exam. 2) your patient may be an ass, but you still need to smile. 3) critical thinking is not optional 4) you need to expect anything and everything on the test 5) the grading scale is jacked up. ...

I finished mine in 3 semester (16 credits per semester)

Congrats for getting in.
