  1. Hi all, I'm looking to get my BSN from either WGU (online only) or SUNY Downstate (hybrid courses). I love the thought of doing WGU and setting my own timelines, no weekly discussion questions, a flat rate, and all the other good stuff WGU has to of...
  2. WGU vs SUNY Downstate

    Hi all, I'm looking to get my BSN from either WGU (online only) or SUNY Downstate (hybrid courses). I love the thought of doing WGU and setting my own timelines, no weekly discussion questions, a flat rate, and all the other good stuff WGU has to of...
  3. Is Chamberlain a good school for future as CRNA

    I'm am currently looking into RN-BSN programs, I was really interested in applying to WGU, but the pass/fail, everyone gets a 3.0 in the end didn't seem too appealing for me because I wanted to eventually apply to CRNA programs which I've heard are R...
  4. WGU

    I'm extremely interested in doing the RN-BSN program at WGU. But I have a couple of questions I hope someone will take the time to answer.... 1. Is this program for experienced RNs or for brand new grads? I just graduated with an associate of scien...
  5. Brookhaven Memorial Hospital

    Hi all, I've been looking into this hospital since I met with one of their nurse recruiters at a career fair a little while back, they seem like a decent hospital and was just curious if anyone had any first hand experience with them. Thanks in adva...
  6. Brookhaven Memorial Hospital

    Thanks. Can you tell me if their charting is done on computers or paper?
  7. I just got an email to come in for an interview for a per diem RN position at Xincon Home Health Care... As a new grad, I'm worried about what to expect from the position, since it would be my very first job. Can someone please tell me: What sh...
  8. Per Diem new grad at Xincon home health care

    I sent you a PM
  9. Per Diem new grad at Xincon home health care

    I tried to contact the company and no one ever got back to me so I didn't go. The only communication I received from them was a duplicate email telling me to come in for an interview. It all worked out though because since then I've started working a...
  10. WGU

    I spoke to someone who told me that as a new grad I would just be required to write a student statement and after that I should be fine. But I'm still researching this school b/c I don't want to get this degree and then hospitals in NY look at me lik...
  11. WGU

    Thanks guys. I was getting the impression that the program was for experienced RNs. I just got my license but already have experienced firsthand how difficult it has been to get a job as an Associate degree nurse. I feel very unimpressive on paper so...
  12. NCLEX 02/16

    I'm sooo nervous, it's not even funny! I focused a lot on content but I'm worried that I didn't do enough questions. I just found the qtrainers on Saturday and I've only done 4 of them. So far I scored 60% 67% 60% and 66%... I know these aren't horri...
  13. Prob: NCLEX on Presidents' day

  17. NCLEX - In and Out!!

    For those that don't care to read my life story - read only the bolded So, I was at the testing site today at 11am for my 2pm test. I reviewed for a bit, came on allnurses for a bit and mustered the cojones to walk in there at 1pm. I was signed in ...
  18. Encouragement for NCLEX!

    Congratulations!
  19. What % on Practice Tests = NCLEX Pass?

    Keep in mind that a lot of different resources can be counterproductive. You get a number in your head then you read somewhere else has a different number and you can get confused pretty quickly. For the most part I only used one resource for content...
  20. What % on Practice Tests = NCLEX Pass?

    I would suggest you take the time to strengthen your weak areas without neglecting the ones you've already pretty much mastered. The NCLEX can ask you anything. If you feel you know the material fairly well you should be fine. Read your rationales an...
  21. NEED HELP!!! any updates from recent NCLEX-RN passers??

    I completely agree. I studied a lot of things on the endocrine system because so many people said they had a bunch of questions on that topic and when I went in there I got OB/Peds and liver questions. They have so many questions it's pretty much imp...
  22. NCLEX - In and Out!!

    Thanks everyone. To those who haven't tested yet, you can do it! Go in there knowing that you have what it takes. That you're school prepared you for this. That you've been busting your a** off for days/weeks/months/years to accomplish your goal!! St...
  23. NCLEX 02/16

    Oh, and congrats to all of us who tested and got that good pop up!! I really hope it didn't gas me up just to let me down!! Come on Saturday!! Don't let me see that 4 letter F-word, b/c if I do see it I'll be throwing my own 4 letter F-word around A ...
  24. NCLEX 02/16

    Don't worry you can do it!! As far as the quick results, I've heard of people getting theirs on Saturday, since that's not a business day I guess it doesn't matter. I'm hoping to get mine on Saturday, b/c if I have to wait till Tuesday I just might l...
  25. NCLEX - In and Out!!

    I waited the time it took me to turn on my phone and walk to my car! Lol. But I did make sure that I said delivery successful first. So that was all of 5-10 mins
