  2. my little analysis of the NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You know, I was having a hard time believing that you would post such an inflammatory post. Having looked at your past posts, I see that this is a pattern for you, and I'm not going to play your...

    rainbows4me replied to nursepearl's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Ice- I am going to be starting a job where I am doing the 3 months days/3 months nights. Have you been doing it long? How does it work out? I'm nervous about it - as I have kids and, more...

    I'm waiting as well - took them Wednesday... should know today!!! Thought I was the only one who kept checking the website every hour!!!!:chuckle Good luck to everyone who is waiting! Keep us...

  6. my classmates' report of NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to IowaCindy's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree to using only one book to study from... but use questions from as many disks as you can get your hands on!! (I traded with friends.. and I've *heard* that some people burn copies and give...

  7. Need positive vibes!

    rainbows4me replied to theblondeone's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Good luck to all of you who are feeling that nervous anticipation. I took my boards on Wednesday 7/16 - got 75 questions and should find out today (!!??) whether or not I passed. I'm hopeful. I...

    rainbows4me replied to lovinghands's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    congratulations!!!!

  10. my little analysis of the NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ahhh.... but you see I *have* spoken with someone who designs the program. And it's all based on insanely geeky math stuff that, although quite a bore, is remarkably accurate...:chuckle But you can...

  11. my little analysis of the NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You used the 0.3 passing rate as a percentage of the questions you need to get right. alright - just so you *really * know that the 0.3 is actually a measure of question difficulty (each question is...

  12. my little analysis of the NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This theory would only be true if you were in the "failed" zone at 75. If someone were answering really difficult questions (way above the 0.3 difficulty level needed to pass) and that statistically...

  13. my little analysis of the NCLEX

    rainbows4me replied to bender73's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Why would you think you only need to get 5 right out of 75 to pass? I don't follow your logic. I think many confuse the "number of questions you need to get right" with the difficulty of the...

  14. Took NCLEX today

    rainbows4me replied to anutmeg's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't give up yet! If you were certainly failing, the computer would have not continued to give you questions - right? There have been several people lately who have posted taking all 265 questions...

  15. Took NCLEX today

    rainbows4me replied to anutmeg's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I took mine today as well, and when the computer shut off at 75, I felt relief. To be honest, the idea of having to sit through 265 questions was terrifying. I think we've got a better chance at...

    rainbows4me replied to leraern's topic in First Year After Licensure

    anutmeg- Good luck tomorrow! I'm testing at 9:00 tomorrow as well! Here's wishing us both the best of luck! Post how it

  17. Just graduated... what can I do with my BSN that Assoc. RN's can't?

    rainbows4me replied to doodlebug914's topic in First Year After Licensure

    (Quote)Another BSN student who just graduated as well was speaking with me, and said she wonders if the Assoc. degree RN's laugh thinking that we have wasted our time getting our BSN when we get the...

  18. Anyone take the Arnett test?

    rainbows4me replied to rainbows4me's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Well, I should know after Wednesday (if it was similar) and by Friday if it was a good predictor (Pearson early results). I also did really well on the Arnett (well above .7) so I'm optimistic. When...

  22. NCLEX questions

    rainbows4me replied to AmyHall's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thanks for the info - makes sense - but where did you read this? It seems strange for there to be so much focus on this topic without good reference out there... Suppose I should brush up on it...

    rainbows4me replied to iliket3's topic in First Year After Licensure

    woo hoo!!! you did it! [color=#9acd32]glad to hear it. good luck with your future rn career!

  24. 265 questions, I'm terrified!

    rainbows4me replied to Belle03's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I hope you passed - but just to stop the rumor - this is not true about randomly being selected to take 265 questions. Don't know if it ever was true, but it is not true now. It's been quoted from...

  25. Need Advice on NICU Nursing....I will have my RN in December.

    rainbows4me replied to KBNUR2004's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I'm a new grad (boards this wednesday!?!) and will be starting in the NICU this August. As much as I'm very excited about where I'm going, I'm also nervous. I'm glad to hear that you (and others on...
