  1. Omg!!!

    lisamc1RN replied to naijanurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations! I know all those emotions are awful. I'm going through the exact same thing right now! What a relief it must be to know that you passed and don't have to do this again!

  4. "Choose all that apply" Nclex questions

    lisamc1RN replied to Serenyd's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I only had 5 or 6 check all that apply, thank goodness. I stink at them too. I didn't get any OB questions at all! Good luck to you. Just keep studying. That's all you can do.

    LOL! I'm with Eric on this one... I think we need to petition NANDA and get this recognized as a legitimate

  6. Took the NClex today

    lisamc1RN replied to lisamc1RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you everyone. I was so glad when my test turned off at 85 for the plain fact that I don't think I could stand to try and answer another question! LOL! Good luck to everyone! Congrats swee2000...

  7. Parents of kids with autism, please read

    lisamc1RN replied to LydiaNN's topic in Pediatric

    My son has Aspergers. I'd love to see more articles, mercy. :) I'm not sure what forum it belongs in though. It is off topic, so maybe the breakroom is

  8. Question about rescheduling NClex appt...

    lisamc1RN replied to lisamc1RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I did it! My appointment has been moved to July 22! Woohoo! That's only 6 days away! .......*gulp*

  9. Question about rescheduling NClex appt...

    lisamc1RN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If I want to try to get an earlier appt than what I already have (August 1), how do I go about that? Will I have to pay to have it rescheduled? I went to pearson's site and clicked the reschedule...

    lisamc1RN replied to lisamc1RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Note to self... Do not move to West Virginia!

  12. starting wage for lpn

    lisamc1RN replied to nursespurses's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Here in my part of Ohio, the starting wages are between $15-$17.50 an hour. If you drive out about a half hour, toward Cleveland, a new grad makes

  13. how far is too far to commute?

    lisamc1RN replied to dolphindodger's topic in Nursing Career

    My commute is 45 minutes and I love it! Like another poster said, it's down time for me. By the time I get home I'm ready for my husband and children. Also, the job pays more than I was offered...

  14. Now I'm not so sure

    lisamc1RN replied to fifi2323's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like you have some excellent reasons for wanting to go the LPN route first. If that's what you want, then go for it. It's the route that I and many others have chosen and I don't regret it...

  15. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for understanding. A 3.5 GPA is nothing to sneeze at and it must be painful to feel that she was passed over. I wish the OP the best as she pursues her nursing education. Hopefully, she...

  16. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I like the way you put it. I love people and healthcare and could have chosen any number of ways to involve myself in both interests. I chose nursing because it is well paying, there are plenty of...

  17. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry if I misunderstood you. I was responding to this, I think it's harmful thinking to make such a broad statement. It doesn't take into consideration that there are many people (including...

  18. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That assumes an even playing field for everyone. A person with 4 kids, a husband, a pt or ft job, and going to school part time may disagree with you about the difficulty of taking 2 classes being...

    Best of luck to you all! What an exciting time in your lives! Before you know it you will all be graduates, waiting to take your state test.

  23. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LAROSILIERE, I hope this thread isn't deleted that easily. I haven't read any post that was disrespectful. I think that we are simply trying to point out a thought process and judgement by the OP...

  24. It just isn't fair

    lisamc1RN replied to tigress_8207's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One of the first things you will hopefully learn in nursing school is to lose the judgementalism. Circumstances are not all the same for everyone who applies to nursing school and if you start judging...
