1. Advice: Am I ready?

   RDay4Peds replied to >--stethoscope--o's topic in NCLEX

   Another note about the practice test scores... I was getting in the mid-to-upper 70's on my practice tests most of the time. Sometimes in the 80's... but not often. .. and yes.. I passed the NCLEX at 75 questions. :)

2. Advice: Am I ready?

   RDay4Peds replied to >--stethoscope--o's topic in NCLEX

   I passed the NCLEX last week, with it shutting off at 75. I did well in school and for studying used primarily ATI as my school (BSN program) used them extensively. I found their program VERY helpful. Some tips.. no matter what program you use: Look ...

4. Your 1st Year as a Nurse: Advice & Tips

   RDay4Peds replied to Amandavalleen's topic in General Students

   Thank you for your words of wisdom. Tomorrow (Monday) I begin my career with RN finally behind my name (as of Friday), also in Pediatrics. Through my nervous jitters about how I do not know nearly enough to be entrusted with the title I've just earn...

   RDay4Peds replied to 2bnurseforce1's topic in NCLEX

   Well... It turns out that ATI helped me well, along with well.... Nursing School. I passed. I passed. I passed!! I took the NCLEX-RN yesterday and I had my license up on the BON site today. My two biggest suggestions for NCLEX: READ EACH QUESTION C...

   Regarding the Original author. Congratulations - and What a wonderful post. I too graduated Dec 2011 with my BSN and took the boards yesterday (was it just yesterday?). I too was a nervous wreck but left it feeling pretty good - I got 75 questions. Y...

8. How I passed NCLEX 1st time in 75 questions

   RDay4Peds replied to xxlilkacixx's topic in NCLEX

   I took the NCLEX RN today and it stopped at 75 questions. I did get the good pop-up, but who knows... The truth will be in the pudding (so to speak) of seeing my name on the BON with a license # next to it! I can say that I agree with most posts her...

9. NCLEX Tomorrow Morning (2/2)

   RDay4Peds replied to bippityboo's topic in NCLEX

   Agree the PVT is nothing but a band-aid for the real need to see our license info at our respective BON sites. I'm sure I'll be paying the $8 and thinking it's the best money spent if it's not on the BON site first. I imagine we'll be likely to look...

10. NCLEX Tomorrow Morning (2/2)

    RDay4Peds replied to bippityboo's topic in NCLEX

    Me too! I took mine today, shut off at 75... and tried the PVT.. it did not let me re-register. Now just hoping we *all* had an AWESOME NCLEX/Groundhogs day (but NCLEX day, more!) We should all post back as we hear.

11. Any Feb 2012 NCLEX takers

    RDay4Peds replied to 2bnurseforce1's topic in NCLEX

    By the way... I did ATI review (my school utilized - and charged us for ATI, so I figured why not use the resource I've already paid for) and a Kaplan review book. I felt like I was well prepared for the format of the questions and the computer testi...

12. Any Feb 2012 NCLEX takers

    RDay4Peds replied to 2bnurseforce1's topic in NCLEX

    I *just* took the NCLEX today (Feb 2). Now the (seemingly eternal) wait for results comes in! My best wishes to all the rest of the February bunch (and all of us - I know we've all been working so hard toward this goal). Please post results as we he...

13. PVT worked and I passed NCLEX

    RDay4Peds replied to avaloncar's topic in NCLEX

    Congratulations on all of your hard work and achievement! You should be (and obviously are!) very proud of yourself. I'm scheduled to take the NCLEX in a few days (Feb 2 2012) and have been studying mostly with ATI as well. Can you tell me what kind...

14. How I passed NCLEX 1st time in 75 questions

    RDay4Peds replied to xxlilkacixx's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for your story! I"m taking the NCLEX-RN on Feb 2 (just 4 days from now!) and am sooooo nervous! My job depends on me passing (I'm sooo grateful I've got a job and to end up losing because I don't pass.........). How did you handle all of the e...

15. Advice: Am I ready?

    RDay4Peds replied to >--stethoscope--o's topic in NCLEX

    I'm scheduled to take NCLEX-RN the same day as you. I'm nervous as well, and taking lots of practice tests using ATI (something our school used throughout). I also have the Saunders book though have not used it as much. I'd also like to hear from ot...
