Hi everyone! I just have a quick question and was hoping some of you could give me some suggestions. Here is a bit of a back story: I'm a mom of 5 who started college late. I enrolled in RN school (ADN) program when I was 25. I graduated in 2013 ...

Thank you for responding [COLOR=#003366]Billy_Ruben. I'm wondering if it is too low myself, but I think I'm going to give it a try. If I need to, I can always take another semester of classes to push it up to a 3.5. Have a great day!

Thank you for responding [COLOR=#003366]klone, BSN, RN. There are quite a few in the area that I've talked to that would be willing to let me do clinical there, if I get into a program. They were even willing to go through preceptor training (or eq...

Thank you for responding [COLOR=#003366]mmlpn, ADN, BSN, LPN, EMT-B. Your post has given me a lot of home! I believe I'm going to give it a try! If nothing else, I can take some extra classes and raise my GPA a bit. Again, thank you! Have a gre...

I have heard from others that the Pearson Vue trick no longer works either. I don't have any 100% proof as I took my NCLEX back in June 2013 and it worked then. However, I know it didn't take long to show up on the BON website. In fact, I believe ...

Hello everyone. I am in the process of endorsing my Oklahoma RN license to Texas. I filled out the online application and when I reached the part where it asked about criminal history I selected no. I did have an arrest, over 10 years ago, when I was...

Hi everyone! I have what may be a simple question, but it is something that disturbs me. I am a new graduate RN and was working for a staffing agency for a while when I was sent to a nursing home (directed towards patients with mental health issues...

Hi everyone, I want to first thank you all for taking time out to read my question. I am in my freshman year (second semester) in an ADN program here in Oklahoma. I will graduate in May 2013 and will take the RN NCLEX that summer as well. I then plan...

Hi everyone, I am about to finish my first semester of my first year (of a two year program) in my RN program. Our school requires that we take the HESI exit exam after we finish our second semester of the first year, but we must past this test with...

Hi everyone, I am in my second semester of a 2 year RN program and I'm starting to realize there are some things I just want to commit to memory to make things easier during my clinical life as well as in my future career as an RN. I've started by ma...

Thanks everybody for all the responses!! I'm soooo glad all of you that have taken it have passed!!!! Congrats!!! I will not be taking my test until this May, after completing my second semester of freshman year, I just want to start preparing now!...

OH, I understand the nervousness!!! That is a scary exam!!! Yes, I hope you pass!!!! Just study, study, study!! Let me know how it goes, I will be thinking about you!!!!

Hi everyone, I am a RN student at Murray State College and I would like to get some experience working in a hospital before I graduate (in 2013) and earn income. I have noticed a lot of hospital sites that are hiring CNA's say that the requirements ...

hi everyone, i am a nursing student looking for work while i put myself through school. i saw an ad on craigslist (i have never used craigslist for anything, because i tend to believe most people are trying to scam) but i replied to the job anyway. ...

THANKS EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!! I did not know there was a way to alert craigslist about these type of scams until I read all the replies. I did save the email, just in case it turns out to be some creepo that finds me. I didn't give any information, d...

Do you mind showing a small example of your resume? I have made them before, but they are always the plain Jane ones I learned to make back in high school. Sounds like you have some great ideas on how to tweak and make a resume shine!

Thank you both very much! I will keep you posted for sure! I got a call today from Mercy Memorial (I have heard it isn't the greatest hospital to work at, but I had my baby their, and everyone seemed nice and the hospital was really nice) and the HR ...

Wow.....amazing story. I had chill bumps while reading it. If this is a true story, I hope and pray the souls find peace, and if it was a just a story, very, very good!

Thank you both! I called the BON and they told me the information, I had no clue that I could challenge the LVN exam, thank you both! I would not have even known that I could do this without your answers. As far as the CNA, I was told that I could...

Hi everyone, I am just starting out my nurse education, I was excepted into the RN program through Murray State College (is is just an associates degree) but then I am going to get my Bachleor's degree and then my Master's. I am going back and fourt...

Thank you both so much!

I agree with everyone's post, 83 seems large compared to my class here in southern Oklahoma. I believe we had right at 60 students accepted for the 2013 class, they told us when we first applied that they may only take 45 students, so I was nervous ...
