  1. I passed WITHOUT the good pop up

    Raviepoo replied to Raviepoo's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    OK. I get it. I guess I'm just risk-averse. 200$ is more money than I can afford to lose right

  2. I received this email from a professor. I was a little shocked. Opinon?

    Raviepoo replied to kdflet's topic in General Students

    Trust me, people say those things about nursing students and the schools that place them in clinical sites. I really appreciate the fact that the letter makes it clear that the program is proud of...

  3. Tolerance and acceptace of gay nurses and patients

    Raviepoo replied to anon456's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  4. Achieve Test Prep questions

    Raviepoo replied to nurseonoriode's topic in General Students

    I never said anything negative about testing out. I've done it before and I plan to do it again. Testing out is a wonderful things, with many advantages. You lose the economic advantage if you are...

  5. Achieve Test Prep questions

    Raviepoo replied to nurseonoriode's topic in General Students

    And that is the reason NOT to do Achieve Test Prep. You are taking classes. You are spending money. You are spending time. You are doing the work that your instructors give you, with no guarantee...

  8. Provisional acceptance - previous credits not evaluated yet

    Raviepoo replied to Raviepoo's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    This is what worries me. I saw a degree plan that included specific classes, not 6 credits in this area, 6 credits in that area, etc. I have tons of humanities credits but I'm not sure they will...

  11. RN to BSN Online

    Raviepoo replied to Bezoars's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Every program is different. I had acute care rotations in my LPN program and an awesome community nursing rotation in my ADN program. I don't really need to do more clinical. I need clinical...

  13. Opinion: Do bad TEAS scores = Bad nursing students?

    Raviepoo replied to NoTurningBack's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    TEAS V Study Package I was decades out of high school when I took the TEAS. If you ever learned it, it will come back. If you didn't, buy the ATI prep book and go through it cover to cover. It's...

  14. graduated but not really

    Raviepoo replied to btf5's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is a common thread in those programs. They include the classes that my program would call "nursing prerequsites." So yes, it's a pre-nursing program. At my school the student would take the...

  15. I graduated nursing school and I dont know where I should take the NCLEX

    Raviepoo replied to EternalFeather's topic in General Students

    In my state it is much easier to apply for an initial license in the state where you completed your schooling. The students who have applied to other states have faced delays. Your mileage may

  16. Opinion: Do bad TEAS scores = Bad nursing students?

    Raviepoo replied to NoTurningBack's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Don't worry. The TEAS test isn't rocket science. It measures skills you should have acquired in high school. It is very possible to get a high score if you prepare. Buy the TEAS prep book from ATI...

  17. UTA acceptance doubts

    Raviepoo replied to forever88's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Um, are you sure that program is available online? I can't imagine learning everything you need to become an RN without doing any clnical rotations. Even Excelsior (which has an online RN program)...

  19. Can't Shake Off Rude Patient

    Raviepoo replied to bboy45's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm betting she has bipolar disorder. Give it time. She'll warm up to you. There are going to be lots of patients like her. You have to find a way to let their disapproval roll off of you without...

    Raviepoo posted a topic in University of Texas Arlington

  21. NCLEX-RN: Anyone think it wasn't such a huge deal?

    Raviepoo posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm specifically asking anyone who took it since the last revision when they yanked up the difficulty level. My school keeps telling us that it's super hard and we have to study, study, study. The...

  23. Graduated with high honors - is there any point in saying so on my resume?

    Raviepoo posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I graduated from my ADN program with high honors and I was a member of Phi Theta Kappa, the honors society for 2 year colleges. If I put that information on my resume, will it make me attractive to...

  25. The Nurse's Guide to Observing Chanukkah

    Raviepoo replied to Lynda Lampert, RN's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I'm pretty sure that my fellow Jews just want to be left alone to do their thing. Judaism is kind of an odd duck as Western religions go. We aren't looking to spread the word. We actually...
