What a wonderful post! ?

I worked as a nursing assistant while in nursing school and understand the work. It is hard, physically work but I left every morning at 7:00 am. Now as a RN I work with some good NA's and one older very lazy NA that I'm about to lose patience with, I physically do most of her work for her and still have to remind her to do the little things. All I can say is I left work this morning at 7:45 am and my nursing assistant left at 7:00. I have never seen an NA or CNA stay a second pass 7:00, they want us to help them with there job but they can't stay late and help us with ours!

I totally agree!!! What is the point in this "venting" post. I'm proud to be a technology advanced, smart, aggressive new grad full of compassion.. So If I can log online and use a trick to see if I passed NCLEX to help me sleep at night - more power to me and the rest of the new grads!!!

I took NCLEX Monday (July 15th) had the good pop up and BON updated their website today with my new license number!!! So excited, I also had all 265 questions.. So the trick works!

How did it take for the AR BON to approve?

Can either one of you tell me know long it took to get your license when you have something on your background check. I answered yes on application and have already sent in all my info. Mine was a misdemeanor for a small hot check 9 years ago, seen my record had been sealed. But still wondered how long it took.

I was pinned on May 17th and it is an awesome feeling to be done with nursing school. Congrats all 2013 grads and all others your time will be here before you know it!!

I did nothing over spring break and I'm playing catch up this week and it sucks... But boy I sure did enjoy sleeping in and hanging out with my kids :)

If you make below a 78%, you're out. You can reapply to get back in the program once. But then again you have to wait a year and re-test.

Edit wrong post

Me too!!! Graduate May 18th!
