  1. Kaplan Trainer Scores - Nclex in 3 weeks!

    buttercupp85 replied to CVU_RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So my Kaplan instructor told everyone in my class that the nclex is made so people fail about half so if you're getting a 60% you're not just doing well, but extremely well! She said anything above a...

  2. Legacy RN Versant Residency Program Summer 2015

    buttercupp85 replied to LauraRose's topic in General Nursing

    I know! I was looking at old threads at it seemed like at least last cycle people start getting calls about 10 days after the first interview event. So I'm not expecting anything until the earliest...

    buttercupp85 replied to MsMarie's topic in California Nursing

    And from what I've read, after panel interviews you may get called back for unit interviews, and then job offers are

    buttercupp85 replied to MsMarie's topic in California Nursing

    I'm moving onto the panel interviews too. I forget exactly what I put down- probably acute care peds or if there was an intermediate picu I probably put that. I'll have to

    buttercupp85 replied to MsMarie's topic in California Nursing

    So denials are going in email form? I haven't received a denial or call to progress to the next step. Pretty sure I applied to the acute peds

  9. is this expensive for a BSN?

    buttercupp85 replied to Faylynn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    5 K a year sounds like a dream! I'm out of state so with a full load of nursing classes tuition lands me about at 20-21 K a year. Luckily my grandparents graciously help me out with about a third of...

  10. Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Nurse Residency

    buttercupp85 replied to nreed5's topic in Georgia Nursing

    My status hasn't been changed since the 15th of March and it still says application received. I'm out of state from the west coast, so I'm taken this lack of status change as a rejection. Good luck to...

  11. Legacy RN Versant Residency Program Summer 2015

    buttercupp85 replied to LauraRose's topic in General Nursing

    Well a girl in my program and I got scheduled for the same exact time. I applied towards the beginning of the application period and she applied near the end. But we did have the same 1st choice unit...

  14. Legacy RN Versant Residency Program Summer 2015

    buttercupp85 replied to LauraRose's topic in General Nursing

    I also got an interview for May 20th. I actually went to a career fair and talked to the Legacy nurse recruiter there. She talked about how it has changed (like mentioned above) and it seems you can...

  15. Primary Children's Medical Center Nurse Residency June 2013

    buttercupp85 replied to nurse_2365's topic in General Nursing

    I just applied to a few jobs at primary's less than a week ago. I thought I had missed my chance I took too long to apply and the new grad jobs disappeared at the end of March. But I looked about a...

  16. Lucile Packard New Grad RN Nurse Residency 2015

    buttercupp85 replied to MsMarie's topic in California Nursing

    I'm pretty sure I read on a previous thread that if you didn't pass the personality test they would notify you of such. Maybe even a rejection letter? But I only read that on here, so don't know how...

  17. NICU vs. Peds

    buttercupp85 replied to nperks's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    What's your passion? Do you feel strongly towards one or the other? I am interested in both as well, but have found my heart is more in pediatrics than NICU. I like working with a wide ranges of ages....

  18. is 25-30 too late to want to pursue a nursing degree?

    buttercupp85 replied to mee9mee9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I started seriously considering nursing school right when I turned 25... And am now 9 weeks from graduating and I just turned 30. And when I started actual nursing school (3 years ago), the average...

  20. Lucile Packard New Grad RN Nurse Residency 2015

    buttercupp85 replied to MsMarie's topic in California Nursing

    I also applied as well! I believe I put PICU, pedi acute, and NICU in that order. Crossing my finger, even though I know this program is VERY competitive! Good luck to everyone

  21. Stethoscope for School

    buttercupp85 replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    People in my program that didn't get a Littman regretted it and upgraded the next year. So if you look at it that way, you might as well spend the money now (if that makes sense). I agree you don't...

  22. Stethoscope for School

    buttercupp85 replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

    Be careful on Amazon! They are not an authorized Littman seller. I bought one off amazon, and it was definitely a fake. Felt much too light versus the real thing. Luckily, Amazon has an awesome return...

  23. Questions on my final and I passed!

    buttercupp85 replied to truckinusa's topic in General Students

    My nursing program told us all to get used to not getting A's! A lot of my classmates had at least one test they did poorly on. My lowest score was a 87% so I was pretty excited. But yeah, most of the...

    buttercupp85 replied to hope4ccns's topic in General Students

    Congrats! I just finished my first quarter, since I am on the quarter system and sometimes I still have to remind myself it is real. I have wanted to get into nursing school for forever! The first day...

  25. Can I still get into nursing school with an F on my transcript?

    buttercupp85 replied to AsherBashers's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The schools I applied to only care about prereq gpa. Overall gpa does not factor into your acceptance to the university. Also, the program I got accepted to is highly rated (7th in the nation) so they...
