S.RN

I share your sentiments, I'm about 50/50 with starting IV's. For me as a new nurse I think it's the finesse that I lack, I've gotten better at setting everything up before I start and putting it within reach so that when it's time to connect I'm not ...

Love this thread. I'm 3 weeks into my critical care internship and I feel utterly defeated after every shift. Just when I think I've gotten the hang of it something new and challenging happens the next shift and I feel incompetent all over again. I d...

Graduated May 9th, took NCLEX June 18th, Passed!

I felt a lot like you Kaaa, after taking the exam I felt that there as no sure way to study FOR the NCLEX. You really need to have a solid foundation from nursing school and clinical experiences that you are able to use in order to understand what th...

Has anyone here accepted a position at any of the HCA facilities yet?

PVT worked, my name showed up on the BON site this morning!!!!

I felt that NCLEX was very vast and random also. When people ask me for my advice it's hard to give any, I took the exam last week and I'm still sorting my feelings out around it lol

I'm actually one of those people that left the NCLEX thinking that there was no way to study for it exactly. I wasn't sure that Kaplan helped me at first, looking back it I see that it helped in some ways but after I took the exam I had a different a...

Congrats!!!!!

I know, it's alright. It's a stressful situation and in times like these you need other people to be your voice of reason. Trust me I know, I couldn't even bring myself to do the PVT trick, I had to have my spouse do it and I had my eyes closed and e...

This is nothing new. Your results won't be available until the 48 hour mark. I mentioned to you in the other thread that the "contact your BON" verbiage has been removed. Time will reveal all things :)

Contacting your BON has apparently been removed from the message. Congrats!

1st your state must participate in it, you can google it to find out. After that just log back in and under where it says "delivery successful" there should be an option to purchase quick results under that. Make sure it has been exactly 48 hours, I ...

48 hour quick results indicate that I passed! I live in TX and I hear they only update licenses on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I'll check back in next week :)

RunBabyRun, I only had one calc question too.

It seems that contacting the BON is no longer apart of the message.

FL is fast! I'm in TX mine isn't up yet, anxiously waiting!

I would call, this is too important to not know for sure directly from the source.

I took the exam yesterday, waited an hour before checking and got the good pop up. I will check back in once I get my final results.

I didn't use the decision tree at all during the exam. Kaplan helped with critical thinking but I felt like I was making educated guesses on majority of the questions.

I felt the same way kjrober, I thought NCLEX was harder than Kaplan for that same reason. I call those type of questions, splitting hairs because you had to really read each answer choice and dissect it, there were rarely any that were straightforwar...

Vintagemother, I felt as though I was guessing on a majority of the questions, it was the most unsettling feeling ever!

Well from what I've read it's pretty reliable if you can't register. There seems to be a gray area if it allows you to put in your credit card information. I've been on AN for four years and from everything I've gathered I trust it.

Y'all that test was like being in a pressure cooker. lol

kgl_2014, I couldn't even check for myself. I had my hubby check. I was a mess, I was certain there was no way. I felt so horrible. Did you try to re-register?
