Confessions Of A Nurse With Poor Interpersonal Skills
I am shy and quiet person, I try to start a conversation, but often times, i quiver when alone with a supervisor inside a nursing station, thinking, there`s gonna be a lot of silence, since im a quiet person, will talk/answer only when asked. I can do exchange of conversations but after a while, its dead silence. During meetings, I am more of a follower, than raising a new issues/ideas. Im easy to get along, but i guess, my being quiet, made me a less favorite to my bosses. When asked on certain ideas, i can place my take on it very well. Its just , I`m having a hard time, opening up to a person I am not comfortable with, up to now, my shyness, is a hindrance to having an excellent interpersonal skills. That`s maybe why, I settle for a home health career. Though I would like to experience working in a facility setting..

HELP! Low Kaplan Scores, Taking NCLEX March 2011. Should I Rescedule?
MY profile hx says "Delivery successful", the pop up says, "contact your member of board, another registration cannot be made at this time" .I am 98% sure i got my last easy ques. right, caused it gave me a priority ques. afterwards, which i ddnt get to ans. due to running out of time. Bfore i ran out of time, i was ans. 3 or 4 easy ques, which i was so losing interest, then i got pumped up at again when i saw a priority ques. I got stucked to it, they wont take my ans. caused time is up.. During the test i was okay, my brain telling me, "ur gonna be a nurse, u can tackle this test" And in between test i knew i missed a couple of diff ques, cause they threw easy ones after, then i checked my remaining time, im close to be over. But i got shut off, not that computer decided on me, but due to no more time.. Thanks a lot for listening/reading.

HELP! Low Kaplan Scores, Taking NCLEX March 2011. Should I Rescedule?
I took nclex-pn last March 29, @ 8.am, its my 3rd test, i was trying to reschedule it on a later time, like in the aftrnoon just like when i took my 1st and 2nd try. But theres no avail in the aftrnoon. Its a worst feeling prior to taking my test. I had not sleep, even though I called off wrk, to do last min studying bfore the test. ( I worked noc shift). And felt horrible after the test, i consumed all the 5 hrs. I finished 160 i think. My question is should i believe in the pvt trick, I checked today, and yest. it wont let me register through the credit page, with the pop up line blah.blah..My brain like to believe 1%, but then something would make me think "don`t fool yourself, so u wont get hurt" "its ur computer that`s defective!" And the last test ques, that i had, bfore i ran out of time, was an easy one, or not a priority ques. I am in limbo, but right now, i am peeking every now and then to my Saunders cd, trying to get ready for the next nclex-pn test...
