Amy...I didn't use much. Being fresh off the NCLEX, I'm here to tell you what I personally believe is beneficial. If you pray, let that be first. I did the hurst review. It was "ok." I mean it's good for a review, but personally I feel like it didn't help me. If I had to pick the most beneficial resource, I would pick NCLEX 4000!!! The way the questions were worded, i would hammer away with nclex 4k!!!!!!!! The test was composed of a ton of priority, and delegation, and "who would you see first." The "higher end" questions are the SATA and drag and drop type of questions (in my opinion.) as I was answering, all I could think of the nclex 4k. It was really familiar!!! Other than that, Saunders was ok. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I got the whole test at 265. And the "pop up" proved to be accurate. ✌️

Passed with 265.

"Our records indicate you have recently scheduled...etc"

I just took NCLEX this week. I got the "pop up" after 265. Still nervous though.

It's been a long time coming. I personally want to give thanks to My God. I don't mean to offend anyone my my statement. Secondly, i took Boards this past week and like every other student who took boards, I'm FREAKING OUT!! Long story short, I ended up with 265. ???!! So I leave out the building, dreading to take that 2hr drive home. I tried the "Pearson Pop-Up" and I got the "currently register...etc" message. I hope that was the box I was looking for. I have advice for anyone that's about to take the test. Just wait until I get my results so I won't for any wrong info. Lol. Thank y'all, any replies are welcomed.

Yea I'm hovering around there. Thanks guys. I'm recalling hoping for the best. I'll have to kick butt this last semester.

What is their minimum GPA requirement?

Hello to all. So I am in the final stretch of nursing school, and I really want to join the Navy. But I don't have a 3.5 to get accepted. Should I give it up or just try anyway? Your input is valued.

Seaofclouds, thanks as well.

Ncox1, that's just what I was looking for. I'll call the recruiter I was chatting with.

Does anyone know the weight requirement for new grads joining the military? Do they base it solely BMI or a physical fitness test?

Does anyone know what is the weight requirements in the Navy? I think I better start shedding fast! I graduate soon my BSN

Hey Ginger, thanks for the reply. I guess I can't shake medsurg huh? ? Fine. I can deal with it for a little while, maybe sharpen on some of my skills. I was kind of expecting being put on med-surg but I can't do it for too long. There's "crappy" staffing everywhere I guess right? Especially the place I work now. There's no way I can continue being there when i graduate, the morale is so low. If you do know, how often does one get deployed and at what length? I will look into that fellowship. Thank you.

Make sure that your sciences are As and Bs. I had a similar situation. But think me doing well in my science classes helped out a bunch.

Hello fellow nurses, I'm anticipating graduating this December with a BSN. I have recently decided (about 85% sure at this point) to join Military nursing when I'm done with school. I spoke with a recruiter and he basically told me that,'since I graduate in December, I would have just missed the "selection" time so I would probably have to wait a year. The Air Force is sounding real good as well. I guess my question you you is -AF vs Navy "pros and cons" if you will. -O1-salary -furthering education -BAH I've been in a hospital as a tech for a year now and my skills are very much up to par. Maybe that will play a role in where I go. I'm really interested in trauma. I get the chills to be around it. I'll be 25 next yr. I have no military background in my family, and I am looking to make a career and great future from this. Any tips/advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Ken, TX
