  1. Main Points: 1. I'm a new RN and I am from NY. 2. I am confused about what avenue to take in order to gain employment. I have learned extensively about lateral violence and always said that, for my first nursing job, I would highly prefer to work wit...
  2. Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    It not what you know...its who. During my last clinical rotation...my preceptor and her friend (another RN), had every family member but their dogs working in that hospital. When I asked her about how to obtain employment there...she pulled me to th...
  3. Nursing classes are easy...

    lol...not everyone on Adderrall has been diagnosed with ADHD. Its sold on the blackmarket and has been labeled the "study drug".... This guy in particular bragged about pretending to have ADHD..AND GOT A SCRIPT. Trust.
  4. Nursing classes are easy...

    Is that what you read? Did I post that "smart people should become doctors"???? That's not what I said.....and that is not in my original post Again, my point stemmed from the guy/girl/person...who stated that "nursing school" was NOT hard. Nursing...

  6. Just Passed NCLEX-RN...

    My Qbank scores ranged from 55-68%. There were some days that I was so tired, and that is why my scores were low. But I think, as long as you do the questions and read the rationales...and UNDERSTAND why you got certain questions wrong, the better o...
  7. Nursing classes are easy...

    One of my classmates, while we were in the program....sang the same song. He always said "nursing" wasn't as hard as medical school... LOW and Behold....he applied to 4 Medical Schools (in 3 different states)...and couldn't get into any one of them. ...
  8. Nursing classes are easy...

    And this is the reason why I feel nursing as a profession has a LONG way to go, in how we are viewed by the public. As long as people on an "allnurses" website....conclude that the nursing curriculum is "easy breezy", the less respect we get in rega...
  9. Nursing classes are easy...

    For those, who said nursing school wasn't that hard....why not just go on to medical school?? Why stop at nursing, when you can become a medical doctor and not have to take orders? Just a question..
  10. Nursing classes are easy...

    Well, as a product of NYC Public School in the 1980's AND a 9th grade high-school drop out. Nursing school was....um....hard.
  11. Failed first NCLEX attempt

    Oh...we had to do ATI in my school, and we hated it. I don't think ATI is even written by nurses. Thats why I choose Kaplan. The video's and the book, helped me sooo much to put all of what I learned back in my head. Are you going again? Please give...
  12. Just Passed NCLEX-RN...

    It will be....I didn't go into the NCLEX saying that I was gonna pass. I went in there saying, this test is for "the people", and to assess if I can help them if I needed to. You will do great..
  13. Just Passed NCLEX-RN...

    @aisha.....for the next 6 days just do questions and read rationals. That is what I did and I passed. The night before the test, I was tossing and turning, and I couldn't sleep. The hardest part was just getting there and not pushing my date back any...
  14. Just Passed NCLEX-RN...

    @Murse...no job offers yet. I don't know anyone working in a hospital...and I don't have any family members who can get me "in". SO my goal is to get into community nursing (VNSNY)...

    I brought the whole package...I have the blue review book. And their online video's are the BEST.
