    New Grad-Is Home Health a good idea?

  3. I wish there was a way to edit the original post! Here's the addendum about the BSN comment to clarify what I meant - I mean absolutely no disrespect to those who have worked hard to get a BSN. It's a...
  4. I think that it's essential to get a Bachelors, don't get me wrong. I'm in the process of getting it now through CSUDH. I just mean that people like to get on a high horse about BSN > ADN and...
  5. Everyone that I know who has gotten a job in the California job market is due to persistence, going the extra mile, and positivity. We came up with the tips above and found that they work well to...
  6. Right on Pk! Pearson actually told me to check it after my test since I was clearly a nervous wreck. I looked like I was going to be sick all over the computer.

    Go to Pearson Nclex and try to re-register for the test. If it doesn't let you, saying that you "must contact the member board and that another registration can't be made at this time" you passed!

    First 10 questions?????

    You aren't doomed. Just go slow.
