As Suzanne said, the number of questions has no bearings on whether you passed or not. It's the level at which you were consistently getting 50% correct. Keep in mind that you will get 50% wrong on...
I believe they also are considered the "disaster preparedness" questions, such as "Who do you help first?" 1. Little boy who is blue/white and has dried blood 2. Man who is bleeding profusely from an...

I do know someone who has done this, of course, it was a homebirth situation. From the reading I have done, this had been done in the long distant past. Eating the placenta would stop uncontrolled...

And if this doesn't work, it sounds like a little "housecleaning" might be in order, starting with your assistant down to a few CNA's who might be bucking you. I really don't mean to be harsh to your...
Oh wow, that had to be not only weird, but very sad for all involved: the family, staff, the physician. To have to go through that not only once, but TWICE, very difficult and

You all are truly fortunate to have worked with this man. Absent from the body, present with the Lord. I will have his family, friends, friends/coworkers in my thoughts and
I don't know if it would work, going back to visiting hours that is. I see it at every hospital I'm at. At 9:00PM a general announcement is made saying that visiting hours are over... there are so...
Maybe I'm missing something here, but what could have been done differently? Did she not want her baby resusitated via bagging? What her problem with the bagging? Just curious. Interesting answers...
Dave, I've been gone for a little bit. I've been looking for posts by you made in the past week. Do you have results yet? Just wanted to let you know that I've been thinking of you, and I'm hoping for...
I'd LOVE to see that, Sarah. Comment on the thread in general: Dressing up is fun, but consider your enviroment. For office work, there's usually not a problem. As far as hospital work, well, I'm all...
Dave, I know that I've posted in another thread on this, but don't get down on yourself. You never know what might happen. We're thinking good thoughts for you... let us know what happens,
:balloons: congratulations, queen mother!:balloons: thank you for telling us your story and encouraging those who are taking the nclex soon that you can pass with a high number of questions! 200+...
Work out and through your feelings, and then get back in the study mode again. Suzanne has a great strategy for those taking the NCLEX. Ask her about it. Someday you will feel like studying, get into...
As I told Runrgrl, this is not a test where you come out and feel like you've aced it. And the questions get progressively harder and harder. That way the computer determines your level and gives you...
Runrgrl, what kind of questions did you receive? Did you receive any priority questions? Just because you didn't receive any math or alternate questions doesn't mean you didn't pass. As I've said...

Marie, just because you don't have kids doesn't mean those days aren't any less special for you. You have family that needs you now, that's important. I agree with you that she was way out of line....
Estrogen, maybe you think you dropped the ball but the only mistake you made was giving out the DNS phone number at night. Chalk it up to a lesson learned. The hospital was just trying to harass...
Sorry it upset you. I'm neither an graduate nurse or experienced nurse (yet). But I've been around a lot of nurses and I find parts of it to be true. It's funny. Loved it. See the
Wishing you a safe trip on your move. As someone said above, you never realize how much stuff you have until you have to move it. :) Hope to see you back soon,
