  1. Maniilaq Association

    I have a phone interview with an HR person and a nurse mgr coming up very soon and I stupidly did not ask if the interview would be more behavioral type questions vs clinical or a mixture of. Obviously, I should focus on both to be prepared but it's...
  2. Transcripts: California BRN

    I sent in all of my transcripts. It's a pain in the behind but I didn't want to risk a delay!
  3. Nclex PN...Fail! I need help.

    Well, here is an Amazon link for the Drexel NCLEX audio review. I didn't have time for a more thorough search but pulled this up so you could at least see what it looks like. If they aren't available through Drexel then you might be able to find some...
  4. Passed nclex & you can too!

    Congrats to ChicRN!! When I took the Kaplan review our instructor didn't recommend watching the content videos unless we needed to refresh on a topic that was unclear to us. I didn't watch any videos instead i wrote down topics that I wanted to revie...
  5. Nclex PN...Fail! I need help.

    I found that taking the Kaplan course was very helpful for strategy. I didn't read through any study book cover to cover although I referenced the 4th edition Saunders book. Sometimes I looked through my school med/surg book for a better explanation....
  6. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Have you checked the CA BON to see if you name is up? What day did you take it?
  7. Nclex PN...Fail! I need help.

    I am a test panicker as well so I completely understand that. My exam stopped at 75 questions and I think I would have run out of time if I would've had to do all 265. I answered every question slowly and as if it were my only question. You can do t...
  8. Pearson Vue Trick - Poll once you receive your results

    Took the NCLEX-RN on 12/08 and my name appeared on the CA BRN this morning! Woot! :) 75 questions and I got the OLD "good pop-up." It worked!
  9. Is Kaplan Q-Bank worth it? I need help.

    I used the 4th edition of Saunders but honestly I didn't use it that much. I looked up things to clarify but did not read it cover to cover. I did like the LaCharity book very much. I think that is a must have :) At the tail end of my studying I saw ...
  10. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Congratulations everyone! I took my exam on 12/08, got the OLD good pop-up and my name appeared on the CA BRN this morning :)
  11. NCLEX-RN in CA & Pearson Vue trick?

    CONGRATULATIONS!! My name also popped up on the CA BRN this morning! I am so relieved and excited :) WOOT! :)
  12. Is Kaplan Q-Bank worth it? I need help.

    I am anxiously awaiting the results of my NCLEX exam which I took on 12/08 so keep in mind that I haven't passed...YET. That said....I think the Kaplan course and Qbank is well worth the $$$. I plowed through all the Kaplan question trainers and the...
  13. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    I feel the same way! Not nearly as wound up as I was when I left the test center but can't figure out what to do with myself....should I continue to study? or what? "Adrift" is a good word for this. lol... Praying for good news for us all :)
  14. NCLEX-RN in CA & Pearson Vue trick?

    I am in CA and took the NCLEX on Thursday morning. I checked for the good pop-up on Pearson about 2 hours later and got it. It also said "delivery successful" although I'm not absolutely sure what that means...lol. I have not seen my name on the BRN ...
  15. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    I think I have seen recent posts where some were taken straight to the CC page (this month) but I can't remember where i saw it....I've done so much searching for the answer to this that I can't remember where I've been. lol... Dang, I hope they didn...
  16. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Well, misery does love company! LOL! Kidding. This waiting is the WORST...I'm starting to settle down a bit and just breathe. I obsessively checked the computer Thursday and Friday. I see that the CA BON only updates Mon-Fri so it doesn't do me any g...
  17. Good pop-up + no name on BRN

    ok, MUCH better....lol. I'm in Cali too and it sounds like from what I have read that they can be slow.....? Don't panic yet :)
  18. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Yes, I keep seeing that the latest group who have taken the exam are getting the good old pop up so that is a bit more reassuring. There is just nothing like this angst...lol. I'm glad you didn't have to wait toooo long even though I'm sure those 2 d...
  19. Good pop-up + no name on BRN

    October 5th? That's over 2 months...or did you mean December 5th? You should have received some written notification if it's been 2 months. I don't know what that would mean but I would be calling if it's been that long. Fingers crossed for you :)
  20. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Congratulations!! Do you mind if I ask when you took your exam and where? I'm obsessing myself. I got the same pop up message as you did so this makes me a bit more hopeful!
  21. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    Thank you for taking the time for answering my post especially when you are feeling so down about your own journey at the moment. I really appreciate that! I do hope it's the "good" pop-up but like everyone else I won't feel relief until I see my nam...
  22. DONE!

    I hope you won't give up! As the other member suggested if you haven't tried Kaplan then think about it because it really is very good for strategies and how to break down the question. I know it's expensive but I think well worth it. The LaCharity b...
  23. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    I took the NCLEX this morning and finished at 11:00 a.m....I've tried the PVT and although it says "delivery successful" it gives me the pop up that I'm unsure about. It says " Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please c...
  24. Transcripts: California BRN

    Well, I did email the BRN yesterday...not really expecting a reply BUT they did send a reply and said that if they receive envelopes that are sealed they 'should' be able to accept them. By that time I had already put the wheels in motion to have the...
  25. Transcripts: California BRN

    Good news about the pop-up but there is nothing like the official posting to let you breathe that sigh of relief. The waiting must be brutal! Hoping that your results are posted very soooooon! :)
