  1. Took me straight to CC on my 2nd attempt at the exam

    I knew that I was ready when I was able to look at a question, break it down and get an idea of the answer without even looking at the answer bank. The important thing is to NOT get too overwhelmed...

  3. yes. I actually received my ATT number through email along with an attached file with instructions. If you received it by mail, I'm guessing you have other paperwork that will tell you to log on to...
  4. Don't worry you get to pick your own date. :) They will send you an email with instructions so its pretty easy. One less thing to stress

  7. low gpa in BS, want to get my RN or BSN

    Take your pre-reqs at community colleges, and if you have good study habits take online classes i.e. psych, nutrition. I was enrolled at many different community colleges that offered online...
  8. Help in transferring college.

    I'm sorry for your situation, but I think you should talk to a counselor at Seneca about how transferring your classes would work. But if I may add, if you are failing your classes- Ant. & Phys....
  9. From my experience I moved my test date, and I was glad that I did. The first time when my test date was coming up, I could tell that I was not confident and too nervous, so I decided that another...
  10. I think I'm failing my Biology class =[

    I understand that you are frustrated, but you continue to be really vague. Biology is a lot of information, and what people are asking is what part are you struggling with? Is there a particular...

    OK I have one more question that I thought I did a pretty good job of answering but the look on the interviewer's face told me otherwise. She asked me what my definition of what nursing entails. I...
  12. Leadership Interview Question

    thank you so much, LunahRN!!! ... I never saw it from that point of view. I did get stuck in that idea that leadership was someone 'in charge' thus during my interview I gave a weak answer that was a...
  13. FAILED NCLEX-RN

    HI I am sorry to hear about this. Please don't let one test deter you. If I may give you one piece of advice that a good friend of mine told me when I first started to study for my NCLEX. Stick to...
  14. Mental health ATI RN

    word of advice from a student nurse whose been there: DO NOT listen to hearsay. People say 'negative' stuff to scare you and hope it messes with your mind. And let me tell you, nurses are infamous...
  15. I had the same problem. You need to let it download first, and then watch it. I usually study something else while I let it load. Hope that helps
  16. Hmmm...maybe not the right career choice

    i think it would be wise for your friend to volunteer at a hospital just so she would be able to understand the role of a nurse. Let her figure out whether she could bypass the 'bad' part of nursing...
  17. Scheduled to take the NCLEX for the 4th Time

    first off you need to stick to one NCLEX book for now and just have about 2 nursing books to refer to. Having too many NCLEX books becomes overwhelming and you then start to feel like you need to...
  18. Kaplan QBank-QTrainer

    Your scores are consistent which is really good. I actually scored lower at the beginning, but over time my scores stayed around the 60% percentile. By the time I finished with Kaplan, I started...
  19. 75 Questions on NCLEX, pass or fail?

  22. have you tried taking online classes? They are actually easier (I think) because you can go at your own pace. I have done really well with online classes. At one point I was taking 3 online classes...
  23. NCLEX 2nd Time Around Question

    I don't know much of the rules of how long you have to wait until you can re-take the NCLEX, but may I give you some word of wisdom. If you don't feel prepare right now and your test is in a few...
  24. Kaplan NCLEX prep classes

    I took Kaplan online instead of the class version. It was cheaper and better for me because I went at my own pace and most of the time I just watched the videos whenever I was stuck on a question....
