  1. A bit confused here

    And in case you missed my earlier posting, not only does My Chicken Have TB (airborne), but My STUPID Chicken Has TB!!!! In other words, Sars is actually under airborne according to the CDC's newest...
  2. My STUPID Chicken Has TB!!!!!

    LOVE
  3. My STUPID Chicken Has TB!!!!!

    I loved the mnemonics posted for precautions, thank you to the OP and all of the subsequent ones who shared... However, I think I will add the word STUPID to My Chicken Has TB...for airborne...
  4. Got a job interview!

    Yay!!!! Here's the best piece of advice/pep talk I got from allnurses.com: If they've seen your resume and application, and they still offered you an interview, they want to hire you. It's up to you...
  5. Will Be Graduating Soon...Needs advice.

    However, they aren't forced to retire. My parents will be of "legal age" ;-). They're not retiring, either... Doubting the boom will be soon,
  6. Job helps for us new grads!

    Three out of three recruiters told me that they don't want a cover letter, because they don't even have time to read them (what with the 100s of resumes/applications they are getting for each job). I...
  7. July 2010 nclex rn study group

    ikedinachi1, I think the real trick to the SATA questions is simply to know the content. There really isn't a trick that I can see. I have missed almost all of the SATA that I have tried, but to be...
  8. Ear Plugs?

    Yeah, I'll be taking those, too... I even find them oddly comforting when I am studying at home with three pirates running around and under and over me,
  9. Think stable patient with predictable outcomes for LPNs. I wouldn't get caught up on "no IV push", because from what I've seen, the q's will never say that. They're more likely to say: a. an 87...
  10. thank you

    YAY! YOU DID
  11. I went to 265 questions and passed!

    Marcos, not sure where you are going with the timing point... did you mean that if you run out of time it is hard to pass (that is true), or just that being faster in general helps (not
  12. Q trainer Scores

    If you taking the QTrainers, then I assume that you are taking Kaplan which does include the comprehensive exam to show you exactly what you need more practice in... that is what the diagnostic test...
  13. I'm done but YIKES!

    Congrats! Now that you mention it, I DO remember that the nursing boards used to be a two-day exam. Wow, I had forgotten about that! Makes me glad it's only 6
  14. Victory over my RN Battle is finally over :-)

    way to go!!!! now, go celebrate with LIVE
  15. PaO2 vs SaO2

    And, just to split hairs even more, since we're already walking down that road... I believe that the SaO2 is an "assumed" value, meaning that it actually measures the hemes that are saturated, but...
  16. Anybody else? tired of studying?

    I thought she meant that she moved it closer... to get it over
  17. Oh, btw, we used plastic wrap for our son IN THE HOSPITAL... it does work, but you can't soak in the water, kwim? and you have to tape it up
  18. I am taking Kaplan right now, spent the $500, and I gotta be honest with you: I think some of the questions ARE bogus... a few of the questions we've had have completely opposite rationales for the...
  19. July 2010 nclex rn study group

    Well, after two and a half weeks, my ATT arrived today... went online and got in for July 8. 30 days. 100 q /day = 3000 questions. Taking Kaplan right now, have Exam Cram and NCLEX 4000 as well....
  20. Took Nclex-RN today. Wish me luck!!

    Sorry to hear that. I wish I had some advice for you, but as this is my first time through, I have no idea if I am doing it right or not. What, specifically, have you done previously? Perhaps someone...
  21. So nervous... Can I pass NCLEX w/o taking Kaplan?

    I think it's really a personal choice... and knowing where your weaknesses are. Me, I get tripped up talking myself OUT of answers just as often as I figure them out. I graduated summa cum laude...
  22. How I Passed The NCLEX-RN (one take)

    Congrats!!! Awesome! Thanks for the tip... One question: What is Croup under? It seems to be just floating by itself. Is that under a specific precaution? Thanks, and congratulations
  23. I Passed NCLEX. I'm an RN.

    Way to go!!!!! Wow, I hope to be in your shoes in just a few weeks!!! And Shopaholic, I think it's time to relax... take the last day off... Good
