  4. Missed a call for an on-call shift

    Yes, I agree nursel56. One thing that really annoys me is people who aren't nurses who say "nurses make good money" so they assume that because you're a nurse it must mean you're rich and can buy x,...
  5. Why dont' nurses help each other?!

    I think you should decide what's more important to you: your devotion to your patients and delivering good nursing care or worrying about other people and their rude ways. Lets not forget why we chose...
  6. Balancing Nursing School and a Boyfriend

    I don't agree with this. Life is all about balance and there is absolutely nothing wrong with attending a party or club every once in a while. Some people attend broadway shows/plays or kick rocks to...
  7. Missed a call for an on-call shift

    This girl doesn't know a thing about food stamps. ha! the gov't doesn't care how many mouths you have to feed or what your expenses are, if you don't meet the financial guidelines, you're not getting...
  8. Any ideas how to pass medsurg?

    Focus on the disease and the nursing interventions. That's really what med surg is all about. What are you going to do for this patient? What should you be looking for? I used Saunders, it helped a...
  9. Missed a call for an on-call shift

    I completely agree. Its really none of your business or your right to tell someone what they should be able to afford. You don't know people's situation and you don't know how much money she makes....
  10. Thanks everybody and good luck to those who are taking it soon or waiting on
  11. NYP

    How did you guys get interviews at NYP? Everytime I apply there all I get are automated responses
  12. Hi, I'd like some advice from people who were new grads and found jobs. I know the job market is tough but could you give me some advice as to how to tackle it and how you got your job? I have a few...
  13. nclex....easier in certain states

    I agree with the rest. Although my best friend had two of the same exact questions I had, and I kept getting repeat questions on my
  14. I started kaplan Jan 25 and finished Feb 10. My test date was March 9. I did 50 questions nearly everyday with a one day break every 2 or 3 days. My test date was on a tues, I did my last set of...
  15. I took kaplan and kaplan only. I did 1000 qbank questions (a lot of the topics in qbank were on the nclex) I was getting some grades in the high 50's and some grades in the 60's. I did question...
  16. New grad looking for job in NYC area

    Yea, a go-getter. Sitting on your butt waiting for everyone to call you is not the way to get a job. You *do* have to be a go-getter in order to get a job. You have to go get the job, you can't wait...
  17. 265 for 6 hours, almost ran out of time

    Dont worry honey, you are not alone, there's plenty on this website that took 265 and still passed! Listen to me trying to reassure you, I took nclex RN today and got 213 quest and I feel like crying...
  18. New grad looking for job in NYC area

    That's not entirely true. The graduating class of May '09 at my skool all have jobs. The jobs are out there, it depends on if you are a go-getter, if you are persistent, but most of all, if you *know*...
  19. worried about not getting ATT until late.

    i called them up and they immediately emailed me my

  21. WI: 75 questions NCLEX RN results

    Oh i'm sorry for repeated posts. I keep forgetting. The pv trick they speak of isn't a sure fire way, but supposed to be something to ease your anxiety. They say going back to pearson vue's website...
  22. WI: 75 questions NCLEX RN results

    At kaplan they said to absolutely not use Saunders, and if you use Saunders you'll fail. They said the book is a good reference guide but the questions on the cd aren't really nclex style and not good...
  23. WI: 75 questions NCLEX RN results

    I don't think you guys should be rushing to tell her she passed. Their have been people that failed with 75 questions. The computer can say 'ok she knows what she's doing i'll shut off at 75' and the...
  24. Is It Possible An LPN Can Make More Then An RN?

    kajunnurse, I don't think the OP meant that at all and perhaps you took it the wrong way. Her concerns do hold some merit, anybody would be concerned if someone with not as much education as they have...
  25. Are my classmates delusional??

    your classmates indeed are delusional. I'm not an experienced nurse yet, as I have just graduated, but I definitely expect to be cleaning feces and vomit from time to time. No task is beneath me and...
