  1. NMC UK New Process CBT

    I notice there are no posts since late 2016. I am in Texas and interested in taking the CBT. Since it is administered by Pearson Vue, as is the NCLEX in the States, I am wondering if they are similar. Has anyone here taken the NCLEX? Thank you!

  3. BSN needed to work in Texas?

    Harris Hospital District, Methodist in the med center, and St. Luke's require a BSN. Texas Children's states that a BSN is preferred.
  4. How To Get a Job As a New Grad Nurse

    Thank you SO much for this advice, J. I am about to start my 2nd year of an ADN program, and the more I read, the more I get terrified of what's going to happen once I graduate. I love helping people, and I have a good GPA, but I hear so many peopl...

    You can wear regular scrubs or clinical scrubs, just don't appear in street clothes!

    Huh. That's very interesting. I guess every campus does things their own way. Not that that surprises me!
  10. Lonestar Fall 2013 hopefuls

    No, you will have lecture one day, lecture and lab another, and then, of course, your clinical day. You will also have a group project each semester, along with 4 sim labs during the year. Also, PowerPoints are the rule of the day, so make sure you...

    Sorry. I thought there'd be a quote in there from Nataliea, in case y'all were wondering who I was replying to.

    If you are a genius, then two hours should do it, but I am no genius. LOL. No, I normally come home from classes and study the rest of the day, with the exception of when I have to get up to make dinner, wash clothes, do dishes, and help my Mom (sh...

    Huh. Interesting. We never needed one, but things are always changing...

    You don't need a bp cuff. Those will be provided in lab or at the hospital.

    I just found this thread. Congratulations to all of you who will be embarking on your first year of nursing school. I am getting ready to enter my second year, along with Stephalump. I think she will agree with me when I say that you are going to ...
  16. Working for the IHS

    I'm currently going to school (ADN) on a scholarship from the federal government (Nurse Corps f/k/a Nursing Scholarship Program) and am looking at working for the IHS when I graduate. I'd like to go back to Tucson, where I am from, to work. Is ther...

    Well, it's the end of the first day...and I feel like I need another vacation. LOL!
  18. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    I did not find the dosage calculations that difficult for the most part. You will do fine. :)
  19. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    LOL! Good job!
  20. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    That's good. I hope they get everything worked out for you soon!!

    Just had lunch with friend doing LVN at Tomball. She, too, is in the midst of a financial aid nightmare! What is wrong with LSC???
  22. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    gmarks, I think I'm going to wear some beige trousers, a white blouse, and flats, but I know a couple of people who say they are going to wear their scrubs. Well, it is our version of professional, lol.
  23. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    At least one night of the week (clinicals), I will be surrendering myself to take out food. Oh, if I could only find a chef to marry, lol...
  24. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    Oh, I wish I could spend time going through my books, but I've got so much to do at home and so many errands to run, that I'm savouring every moment I don't have to be doing something! I am just waiting for the PowerPoints to arrive... ;-)
  25. Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

    Yes, I'm so relieved we will NOT be there until 5! :)
