    Nclex disaster management

    anashenwrath replied to swansonplace's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If i'm understanding your question (and sorry if I'm not): you always assume NCLEX is referring to an ideal hospital where everything is handled by the books. So if there is a disaster and you are...

    Can some share their readiness score before nclex

    anashenwrath replied to FLndn84's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My readiness was a 63.87. Nothing to write home about. In fact, none of my scores were mega stellar. ...And I passed at 75. Good luck,

    Why isn't this a HIPAA issue?

    anashenwrath replied to anashenwrath's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Fabulous. I figured it had to be something like that. I just have all those Kaplan rationalizations still swimming in my head, where an answer would be wrong bcs "It acknowledges that the client is a...

    Hey, what's this paper? ...oh.

    anashenwrath posted a topic in General Students

    So now that I'm done with school, I've been going through and chucking out old paperwork. And what do I find folded up in one of my binders, the "Certificate of Completion" for my coursework in child...

    Common nicknames for hospital items.

    anashenwrath replied to LifesAJourney's topic in Nursing Humor

    My professor told a story about when she was talking to a student in clinicals at the nurses station. She asked the student: "Is that COW still in room 2A?" This was just as the student's patient from...

    I just want to use my skills!

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

    This is some really great advice guys. I'm going to look into LTC--high turnover might even be good, bcs I won't feel as terrible if I jump ship I really appreciate all the feedback and definitely...

    I just want to use my skills!

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

    Thank you so much wendy! I SHOULD look into LTC. I'm worried that it's going to be tough in the city, and of course I'm scared because I don't know where I'm going to be in a few months. I hate to...

    OMG PASSED! (found out on boards before I found out from Pearson!)

    anashenwrath posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So I've been obsessively refreshing my good pop-up on the Pearson page, while I wait for my quick results (I took NCLEX yesterday). I've also had the New York State online license verification page...

    RN to MSN--did you do it? how was it?

    anashenwrath posted a topic in Western Governors University

    I just passed NCLEX Monday after earning my ADN. Now onwards to a higher degree! I already have a BS in biology/chemistry, so I'm trying to go straight to an MSN. WGU looks like it would be respectful...

    Hi both, Thank you so much for your responses! There is obviously a lot of great feedback and experience being shared, and I appreciate it. I will definitely make sure I look closely at the course...

    Would love to bypass that BSN!

    anashenwrath posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Hello! I just graduated with an ADN and have not yet started working in a clinical capacity (I just passed NCLEX on Monday, and I have a non-nursing job in the interim). I also have a BS in biology...

    anashenwrath replied to anashenwrath's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sorry, like I said in my original post, I can't actually give any information aside from my personal experience and scores. You can certainly find old Kaplan review books online for majorly cheap....

    An NCLEX Success Story (Kaplan & ATI... scores included!)

    anashenwrath posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Lots of people post how they prepped for NCLEX if they did well, so I thought I'd add my story to the mix. My grades weren't great and I was kind of a wreck, but I passed at 75. So I thought I'd throw...

    RN to MSN--did you do it? how was it?

    anashenwrath replied to anashenwrath's topic in Western Governors University

    I don't have an RN job yet. Like I said, I literally just took NCLEX, and I was working full time for Pharma before that (I still am in that position now). It didn't look like it was a prereq from the...

    anashenwrath replied to anashenwrath's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Take a few deep breaths! It sounds like you have this. I definitely cracked down more in my last two weeks, but I took breaks too, since burning out is not something you want to do. If you're a...

    Took NCLEX yesterday nervous wreck

    anashenwrath replied to Lynn52's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Here's what I did. Let's look at the stats: - About 86% US NCLEX takers pass their first time. And that's a stat from NCLEX itself. - Study aids increase those odds, especially if you've done well on...

    There's actually a thread in this section called "Pearson Vue Trick was wrong" or something, and I'm pretty sure that's what happened to that

    Very anxious

    anashenwrath replied to mimimaramo's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't think so. I think those questions (SATA, etc) are common "above competency" formats, but any question can be a high-level. A priority question, for example, or one of the ones with a quote for...
