GN2RN

I must say I like your approach. I bet it proved to be very beneficial for your students.I sure could have used an instructor with your style of educating when I was in nursing school. I would like to see more emphases directed towards the preparation for the skills needed to become successful when sitting for state boards. This needs to take place from the very begining and throughout the students educational experience. Gaining the knowledge of the nursing curriculum along with the application of that knowledge in any given situation, nomatter how simple or complex it presents, is the basis for which we can build our critical thinking skills. I love the idea of prioritizing the clients based on report. The more you do the better you become at recagnising what takes priority over what. Very important. You have to know, what is the question asking me? break it down. exercise your thought process, reason it down. The more you do the better at it you become.If the nursing program i attended prepared me my utilizing these simple but so crucial study skills,I would have been well prepared for state boards. Keep up your great work Please excuse my spelling and grammer but this leasure time for me

Having Failed NCLEX-RN Frist time, Im requesting specific accommodations D/T my learning disabilites.According to DSM-IV code, My Diagnostician thinks I would greatly benefit from Multisensory presentation (visual and auditory), Twice the amount of time, and a room free of distraction. Although granted in nursing school I fear the BNE will not except such accommodations. What kind of special accommodations have you ever heard be Granted by the BNE. OR heard of an individual be denied there request. Thanks for your input.

I cant seem to regain my confidence since i failed boards, Im just about ready to give up my dream for nursing. I really dont think i have the skill it takes to pass inclex. Although i know I will make a great nurse if it ever happens for me. Im looking for help on test taking strategies for inclex please help.
