    took nclex 14x still failed

    KJM-RN replied to Casey1765's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    How did you pass the exams in nursing school? If you're really determined to be a nurse, I suggest a private tutor to review content and how to be a critical thinker, you must not be understanding the...

    I'm Not a Nurse, but I am Deliberating It...

    KJM-RN replied to pianissimo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You sound extremely mature and intelligent. Sounds like you'd make a great nurse and seems as if you want to be a nurse for all the right reasons. New grads are struggling to find jobs, but not all...

    KJM-RN replied to Bouncyball's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    KJM-RN replied to adraorien's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I paid 4/29 on PearsonVue and sent in my fee to the state a week before that. I graduated about 2 weeks ago and have not received my ATT yet. After speaking to my state licensing people, I was told...

    Use Kaplan for NCLEX Prep? What'd ya think?

    KJM-RN replied to RetSGT's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I signed up for Kaplan, but then went home and had regrets. I did a ton of research and realized Kaplan is good for people that are poor test takers. If you do well on tests and feel confident in...

    How long did you study before taking NCLEX?

    KJM-RN replied to Bouncyball's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think a major point of nursing school is to teach you how to think critically. How are the questions so different from what you encountered during nursing school? All of my tests during nursing...

    Packing advice for WWII Army Nurses

    KJM-RN replied to andydaehn's topic in Nursing Humor

    For one I have no idea what a musette bag is. I'm pretty sure most people would no longer say something such as "gay material". What the heck does "polish brighter than Windsor" mean and why is it...

    How long did you study before taking NCLEX?

    KJM-RN replied to Bouncyball's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I love all of these comments. I haven't taken NCLEX yet and have only gone through a few chapters in the PDA book (which is really probably about 100 questions so far), yet I feel like I will pass the...

    Omg! Passed!

    KJM-RN replied to PnutButterJelly's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations! So you're saying you had close to 40 SATA?!?!? I think I've gotten pretty good at SATA questions, but the thought of them still make me nervous, there's always the what if I should...

    KJM-RN replied to KJM-RN's topic in New York Nursing

    Wow congratulations! I've been applying to jobs since the end of April, but only graduated a week ago. I'm going to keep applying, I figure it won't cause any harm and could only help even if I...

    KJM-RN posted a topic in New York Nursing

    I'm on Long Island and have been endlessly applying to RN positions. I just graduated last week, so have yet to take the NCLEX. Has anyone received an interview or job offer before they passed the...

    Thanks for sharing, that was interesting. Although it's funny how much language changes over time. The use of some of those terms I was not familiar

    KJM-RN replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not sure who to call and they warned us that it can take them up to a month to send our info to the state. I'm just hoping for sooner, I feel like I won't get down to intense studying until I...

    KJM-RN replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's pretty cool, but I'm in New York and I am unable to find anything similar to this on the NYS BON website, unfortunately. I guess I'll just have to call each week and hope my school sends my...

    Rhabdomyolysis

    KJM-RN replied to julz68's topic in General Nursing

    Just thought I'd add that Rhabdomylosis can be a serious complication from statin medications, as was the case for a patient I assisted with during my first semester of nursing

    KJM-RN replied to rnmj's topic in New York Nursing

    Ok thanks. You can actually get a temporary permit to work before you've taken the NCLEX, costs $35, but it must be signed by the employer before they issue it. I know many nurses that worked before...
