This is like watching a dog fight. One dog took the first bite and the pack came in to help finish the victim off. I used to come here more often but I get so sick of the frequent flyer's here monopolizing every post and conversation. Too bad we c...
Another way to look at this situation is that she doesn't just talk about making things happen, she actually takes action! She may very well be a great asset to the company! From your post I understand that apparently there was a discussion about ...
Compression Socks, rotate good shoes, vitamins, Tylenol, healthy snacks, take your lunch break, ask questions and don't sweat it. The facility will train you.
Wow just wow is right! I read some (not all) of these posts and am appalled and ashamed for the profession of nursing! You people surely don't represent the nurses I know and love! I see someone being rude, another being passive aggressive, anot...

Congratulations! The ED is a great place to do your preceptorship! Do your best, as if you were being considered for the next job opening. Ask your preceptor if you can use him or her as a reference after you pass your NCLEX. Who knows, you may ...

Yep, I know a paramedic who failed out of nursing school because he was arrogant and insisted he knew more than his instructors. He would argue every test question that he got wrong etc. Just as well, he would never have passed the NCLEX...

Yes, it looks like they changed the wording of the good popup, guess the BON got tired of all the calls from people saying the Pearson site told them to call. Bottom line though is that if Pearson's site does not ask for your credit card - - - (dr...
I read your post a couple of times and didn't really understand everything you tried to describe. I can understand that you are probably twice the age of a lot of your nursing classmates and they are bullying you! I experienced much the same in si...

Thank you so much for your post. I love the narrative and felt like I was there with you. Your faith is contagious. When you get your official results, please post a similar post about what you did this time to be successful.
Hey nikkih901, Wow that sounds like 6 hours of torture! The way Kaplan explains it is that if you run out of time your last 60 questions have to all be above the passing standard for you to pass. Yes all 60, every single one. (Search youtube for k...
I hated the boring Hurst live review but that's just me. The Hurst book NCLEX RN review is much better than the live review with lots of cool charts and info you just have to know and you don't have to sit through lectures. We sat through enough le...

We all know we go take the test and if we fail, God didn't make us fail but because we love him he will work it to our good. (See Romans 8:28) Those of us who believe in God love Him and Glorify him for everything in our life even when things don't ...
