I just got my license Tuesday. I've applied to tons of places with no call backs yet. Granted, it's been 2 days, but my raging Type A personality is starting to take over and my house can only get so clean. Here is my issue: I have a family situation...

Ruby Vee thaaaaank you so much for your response. You are entirely correct that an hour commute isn't outlandish. Your saying that kind of put it into perspective for me. I know I'd work 12's but I have no idea what shift work I'd be doing. Regardles...
My license just posted on Breeze!!!!!! I'M A LICENSED REGISTERED NURSE!!!!!!!! For Cali people-took my test 1/22. Checked Breeze 10 mins ago. Still said "pending". Checked it just now....AND I'M AN RN!!!!! Ahhhhh happiest girl ever!! So so blessed!!!
Hello Dee :). Yes I did 100% of the q bank and Kaplan tests. I was averaging 68-72. I made sure to read every single rationale, including the questions I got right. I found that although I watched all of the content videos and they were great to refr...
Because I pride myself on my grammatical capabilities, I inquired on this and have the following for you to read: http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/abbreviations.htm Please scroll down to the box below the section regarding acronyms. Had I title...
Yes I got the "good pop up". The box with 'status "pending"' on Breeze disappears all together and in the upper right hand corner a box appears with your license number and such .
If there's one thing nursing school taught me, it's that reviewing something once is okay, reviewing it twice is great, reviewing it three times...never happened in nursing school because I never had time...but would probably have been fantastic . I ...
From what I understand, there have been people who get the credit card screen but still passed. A false-negative, if you will. So until you get the for-sure results there could still be a chance you passed. However, if it turns out that you didn't pa...
My average was the same exact amount :). Took mine on 1/22, had 75 questions and per the Pearsonvue trick I passed. Just waiting for it to post on the BON :). Here in Cali we're lagged behind . Way to handle your prep! You got this!

I didn't realize I was being cryptic when I stated "patient safety" and "nurse competency". But thanks for thinking I'm adorable :). Gonna say a serenity prayer for you and your frustrations, friend.

Standardizing our practice ensures patient safety, nurse competency and has allowed our craft to become a respected profession, friend. If you're cool with letting a random person who strolls on in and pinky swears they're a great nurse go to work on...
Over half of mine was SATA. I got 75 and have been getting the good pop up. It was very difficult, but it was my test to become an RN. I expected it to be tough . I would say that I probably only got 3 questions where all the answers I picked were "g...
So I took my NCLEX and I got "the good pop up", but California is so behind with everything that they haven't even entered my transcripts yet, let alone posted anything about my passing or not . Looks like it could be 4 weeks before I know for a fact...

obesity33-Haha thanks for the advice. I think I'm going to shoot for nurse recruiters right now and specify that I'm a new grad with a license pending. If they choose to contact me then awesome, but otherwise no harm done. yadi87-Yeah I'm in Cali and...
RN TX (David)-SO jealous. I took mine the 22nd as well, 75 questions, Pearsonvue trick good to go...and the California BRN has yet to even enter in my transcripts : /. So now I wait to officially celebrate. Glad the test is over though. amanda_dunn3-...
So took my NCLEX on 1/22 in SoCal. Hit 75 questions, screen went blue, and then I almost threw up. Haha. Felt like I didn't know anything for a concrete fact. But I've done the Pearsonvue trick after confirming that my 'Status' said "Delivery Success...

I'm applying this month too. I went to the informational meeting last month. A new director took over the nursing program @ VVC last year and got rid of the fall application in the fall of 2010 to try and reduce the wait time. From what they said in ...
