  1. NCLEX on Tuesday......freaking out!

    mangopeach replied to ali419's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I agree. I tested on Thursday. I got my ATT on May 25th. If I had known what I know now, I would have scheduled my exam immediately instead of waiting till 6/21/ to do it. I'm not saying it was a walk...

  2. Got a ? 4 those who used saunders...

    mangopeach replied to GoosbyLPN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took NCLEX RN but I mostly used Saunders Q& A to prepare in addition to the Saunders Comprehensive Review book. However, I did not read the book cover to cover neither did I do an assessment...

  4. Infection control

    mangopeach replied to jorgecardenas55's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't use it to review for NCLEX. Our instructor suggested that we get it for our last semester of nursing school - Advanced Med Surg and I used it for that class since we got hit with a lot of...

  5. Infection control

    mangopeach replied to jorgecardenas55's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I thought the Mnemonics on the All nurses study guide was extremely helpful. But you have to know what PPE to use for the different tier levels for it to be effective. Do you still have your...

    mangopeach replied to Pneumothorax's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  7. For those that couldn't afford Kaplan's review course... there's hope :-)

    mangopeach replied to QueenE6's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I was just about to make a similar post. Very few people in my class paid for a review and so far we are batting 100% in passing. Honestly, its what I learned in nursing school that really helped on...

  8. The wait is killing meeeeee!!!!

    mangopeach replied to Pneumothorax's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Did you search for your name on your state BON website? I tested yesterday and my name is there today. I was going to have to wait till Monday to pay for quick results. They won't get my 8 bucks

  9. Took my NCLEX-RN today!

  11. NCLEX Prep

    mangopeach replied to lovemydogs91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Took NCLEX today. Got the good pop up but still waiting for official results. I mostly used Saunders Q& A ( I think this is a very very good resource) - I thought the questions here were harder...

  12. Why was it hard for you?

    mangopeach replied to angeltech's topic in General Students

    I loved nursing school. And yes it was hard. For me being hard meant time consuming. Pressure like never before. Most other majors can fail a few classes and still get to finish, not so with nursing...

  13. took NCLEX-RN today... lots of SATA, but got good pop-up!!

    mangopeach replied to sunshiny's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    mangopeach replied to NurseB_'s topic in General Students

    Congrats!! I got pinned on Thursday and graduation was yesterday. Final exam was on Monday. When grades were released Tuesday and I realized I was finally finished, the tears started flowing. They've...

    mangopeach replied to knittingmonster's topic in General Students

    In the middle of cleaning a patient and changing their adult diaper, your mind starts to wander about what to have for lunch, despite the

  16. You know you're a student nurse when...

    mangopeach replied to knittingmonster's topic in General Students

    When you only have the final exam left before you graduate, haven't failed any exams and are in pretty good standing but you still worry about bombing the final and not being able to graduate. Why did...

  17. Time for me to quit

    mangopeach replied to Ayala's topic in General Students

    I would give it a go again. You only did 1 semester right? Fundamentals? Things get a lot more interesting after that. As you start to learn more and are able to put the pieces together, it gets...

  18. How to choose the CORRECT answer in the BOARD EXAM

    mangopeach replied to klouwey's topic in General Students

    Oh so you are not in the USA? I was asking because it is generally said that you should take it sooner rather than later. I plan to take mine within 3-4 weeks of graduating. Yikes. I graduate next...

  19. Is this fair? Honest opinions, please.

    mangopeach replied to BC913's topic in General Students

    I agree with the above. I would not even let this occupy space in my mind. You are in. Focus on you. If your school has a good program, it will be rigorous and stressful, you have more than enough...

  20. How to choose the CORRECT answer in the BOARD EXAM

    mangopeach replied to klouwey's topic in General Students

    I graduate in May as well. Congrats on making it through nursing school! I am wondering why you are waiting until December to take the exam? Why not get it out of the way sooner than

  21. I hate nursing exams

    mangopeach replied to RNbethy's topic in General Students

    I'm in my last semester and a portion of our exams are short answer essay style questions - worth 20 points. Mostly Pharm questions. They are actually a lot easier IMO than the MC questions. Go...

  22. Is School Worth the debt when you are already POOR

    mangopeach replied to thelyonqueen's topic in General Students

    Are loans worth it if you are poor? I say yes. There's a billboard I used to pass that said, if you think education is expensive, try

  23. Nurses see us coming for clinical and RUN away from us. Irritating!

    mangopeach replied to thawk28's topic in General Students

    That was my first thought as well. We were assigned patients. We would report off to the nurse that was assigned to that patient, but she was not responsible for supervising us or for our learning....

  24. comprehensive ati

    mangopeach replied to wish_me_luck's topic in General Students

    I found that the ATI Comprehensive was not hard at all. Much of it was like the practice exams. Actually, I thought the Comp was a little easier. Took mine a little over a week ago. Results said I...
