  2. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    PMHNP2023 replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    One thing the board seems to be missing is that a Driver's License is a RIGHT (not a privilege as some people would have you believe...same goes for voting) , an RN license is a professional

  3. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    PMHNP2023 replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Yes, most of it consists of deriving information from

  4. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    PMHNP2023 replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    The hospital knew about it because the company that did the background check messed up and reported it. I filed a dispute with the background company, they corrected the background report, and the...

  5. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    PMHNP2023 replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    The hospital knew about it because the company that did the background check mistakenly reported the convictions that had been expunged. I filed a dispute with the background company, they notified...

  6. Dismissed drug felony in CA.

    PMHNP2023 replied to SoCalVC's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I have this paper from a law firm titled:Is It Illegal for Employers to Discriminate? It's got some pretty interesting stuff, especially when it comes to people with drug and alcohol convictions. If...

  7. Denied CA lvn license for 2 DUI's

    PMHNP2023 replied to octaviaM's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    One thing that helps is getting the convictions expunged. It's just a simple piece of paper saying the charge has been dismissed, but for some reason hospitals treat that paper like gold. I was held...

  8. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    PMHNP2023 replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Reading comprehension is really something you either have to know or you don't. It's not really something you can "learn" in a few weeks from a test prep guide. If the hurdle is because English is...

  9. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    PMHNP2023 replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I'd think that if one fails the test three times, one should really think whether nursing is the right career choice. Wanting to be a nurse and actually having the mental fortitude and ability to be a...

  10. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    PMHNP2023 replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Another thing, the questions are weighted. From the explanation page that came with my score: Adjusted Individual Total Score: The adjusted individual total score is a function of the number of...

  11. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    PMHNP2023 replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    For me, the math was the easiest part of the test. I got a 100% on it. A lot of the math questions are written in such a way that you can rule out 2 or 3 of the answers without actually doing any...

    PMHNP2023 replied to sweet2th's topic in California Nursing

    If you're taking the online class, you need to be a good self-learner. If you can't learn by looking at examples in a book and on websites and figuring out how to get from one problem to the solution...

    PMHNP2023 replied to sarah-V's topic in California Nursing

    I took v.4 too last June at Cal State San Marcos. I'm glad I finally got in, I did not want to go back and take v.5 after I got such a good score on

  14. Cal State San Marcos, CSUSM, Accelerated, ABSN 2011

    PMHNP2023 replied to sarah-V's topic in California Nursing

    That's interesting because my TEAS was 93.5% and in the 99th percentile as well. Maybe everything above a 90% was in the 99th percentile? It's all about points, and I figured that the best thing to...

  15. Kaplan college in San Diego RN program

    PMHNP2023 replied to mireillegrale's topic in California Nursing

    If you think that most of my info is 99% BS, then fine, you can disregard it. But for those who chose to make educated decisions based upon reliable information, then they're free to do that as...

  16. Kaplan college in San Diego RN program

    PMHNP2023 replied to mireillegrale's topic in California Nursing

    Actually, most of the message was incomprehensible. I really can't get past the poor grammar and all the misspelled words. I really hope that any nurse who treats me can not only speak English, but...

    That is some good advice.

    PMHNP2023 replied to mireillegrale's topic in California Nursing

    It's about helping others. But you have to GET A JOB and help yourself before you can help others. That's a basic fact of life, and one you should know as a wanna-be-nurse. Once you get your head...

    PMHNP2023 replied to mireillegrale's topic in California Nursing

    I will chime in with what I know from personal experience (I work in an ER, am about to enter nursing school, and know tons of nurses). New grad jobs are EXTREMELY hard to come by now. To give you...

    PMHNP2023 replied to SoCalVC's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I think this thread is great. With all the negative threads on this forum regarding these matters, it's nice to see a thread where people show a little bit of hope. I had to do a Prop 36 class....

  23. Dismissed drug felony in CA.

    PMHNP2023 replied to SoCalVC's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I have expunged 2 of my past misdemeanors. Total cost $120. I did it myself without an attorney. I work at a hospital and have had 4 background checks done, all showed up with "no record". I've...
