Recently I posted wondering how everyone chose their "specialty" in nursing, because I have no clue what I want to do yet. Surfing the net I found this site that asks questions that may help narrow things down. I think it's intended for physicians, b...

Hi everyone. I'm a little confused about something. I know this girl, let's call her Miss Braggart. Anyhow, she's a friend of a friend of a friend and after speaking to her a few times i've come to the conclusion that I don't like her and I like just...

Anyone know if you can get a student loan if you're getting financial aid? I am unsure how this works. If you go through your school (which is the route i'd be taking) do you ask for a certain amount or do they just give you what they give you? Does ...

I took my NCLEX last Friday. Had 221 questions, mostly priority, teaching and delegation. I felt I was guessing at every answer, that is the nature of the NCLEX beast. No answer will look spot on, so try not to doubt yourself. I did and worried mysel...

:clpty::clpty::clpty: congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They almost had to have a counceler for me and I didn't even know yet. I remember saying something to the 2 women such as... I think I failed, and left. It was all a blur. It was the most torturous 2 days. Yes...it would be a good idea, but it wou...

I will keep you in my prayers. Just a few days ago I was in your shoes. Believe in yourself. I'm sure you did fine.

I took the live Hurst review and basically we got a book and it had a lot of blanks in it and when she talked we filled in the blanks. It was a good review of content, IMO. The way she explained things were simple and no nonsense so that you can easi...

I can appreciate the fact that you have dreams. Everyone should be allowed to follow theirs, but is seems as if your wife is resistant, not of your dreams, but of her fears. Being in nursing school is a different expereince than any other type of col...

Does your state participate in quick results? If so you can check the pearson vue site and pay 7.95 to get your results early. If I hadn't checked there I wouldn't already know I passed because my state board hasn't updated yet. Good luck. I will say...

I feel shell shocked. I took the RN boards today...I had 221 questions (4 hours), mostly priority, teaching and delegation. I had some that I felt were way too easy and those freaked me out. I had only 2 math and about 7 SATA. Anyway....I'm just spen...

I can't believe it...I passed!!!!!

Thank you...it has been a really rough road and I wish more than anything that I would pass so that I may move on now. I keep checking the pearson vue site and it only says my results aren't ready. I wish they'd hurry already. I feel I let me anxiet...

I'm in your boat. I took my NCLEX yesterday and had 221 questions and feel awful about it. I really think I failed. Most of my classmates had 75 too, all passed but one. I studied so much and did so many questions...I think I let my nerves get the b...

Thank you..I know the number doesn't really matter, but somewhere in my heart I feel like I didn't do my best. My nerves got the better of me and by questions 200 I thought I might have a full blown panic attack in my chair! My heart was pounding, my...
