Hi everyone, I am down in the dumps. I just failed my 3rd nclex about a month ago. Background: Graduated last May 2011 with 3.6 GPA. Tutored my friends throughout nursing school and they passed, but I have not. Got into a new grad program, but was t...

Hello everyone! A little over 2 years since I have taken my 4th NCLEX and this time of the year is just a reminder of graduation and prepping for the exam that determines your career. Bc seriously, even if you completed your BSN/ADN you're not a nur...

Hello everyone! I had my interview. It went well with the nurse recruiter; he was pretty cool and the med math test was pretty easy and at the last minute with no warning! lol. I got the verbal job offer but HR did not get to me until 9 days later (...

Hello @ksef. Thank you for your comment! I am so glad my posts/threads have helped someone. Sometimes I wondered if my threads/blogs were helpful at all, I hope that it's not annoying! lol. During the time being of writing those posts, I figured th...

@daddyangel- You can do it! Dont give up! I didnt. It is very tough emotionally. But we got through nursing school, so we can get through this stinkin test. You should read my previous blogs of my journey through this. I was discouraged, depressed, a...

@fringe Your name is not on the BRN? I would wait 3 business days. Since yours was on Monday 7/1. And 7/4 is a holiday and it may not count. I took mine on 12/27. And it falls over NY's day. Wait until tomorrow, Monday, to check the BRN web, and the...

A little FYI on other units. Oncology - management is tough. My friend finished her new grad rotation there and left after completing one year. They expected perfectionist. FYI. She tried her best and even had oncology experience prior to hire. Howe...

Nope! That thing is tricky On my 3rd nclex I did the trick... got the POP UP! You see, if you get the pop up, it's a 50/50 chance that you can either pass or fail. Mines says "results on hold, candidate cannot register at this time". I jumped for j...

Hi KsenaKim. Everyone will tell you that they will feel like they fail it after they take the nclex. I took the Nclex 4 times, below are my results: Nclex 1 - 75 questions, result: Failed. 1.5 hours. Lots of SATA. Nclex 2 - 75 questions, result: Fa...

Have anyone heard back from ortho, tele or geriatrics?

@lakergurl - what unit did you apply to?

@mdrn13 - what unit did you select?

By any chance can you find out how many positions there are for us externalist? lol. Thanks for the update!

Mine's still "online assessment completed". What unit did you select and what when did you apply? Thanks for keeping us posted. :)

Thanks! Do you know how many positions are available in general or per dept? My friend got hired in Jan 2012 for their new grad program. She said she applied in Oct 2011 and didn't get her first interview until 2 months later Dec 2011... they are SL...

@htsims - Im sorry for what you're going through. Believe me, I get it! I went through the same thing - know that you are NOT alone. Right now take some time to grieve over the loss. The loss of not having this license once again I know you are sti...

Got an automatic rejection email. Graduated 2011. Lets say "life" happened and took time off. Got interviewed in person twice, the first round with recruiter and the breakfast. Didnt make it to the third. The breakfast was like a job fair to be qui...

Got the rejection email on Friday evening. Quite bummed, but moving onto the next. Dont know what they are looking for, maybe it's been a while since I have graduated so maybe that's why my application got trashed? Kinda discouraged. If those of yo...

@hopeandfaith Dont give up! I didn't! I passed on my 4th try! See my threads for what I went through emotionally and what I did differently each time. For now, take some time off and cry it out. Really... its such a toll studying for this exam. Take...

Hi phillipG- Thanks for sharing and mapping out your interview experience- thatll help lessen my anxiety! Lol. And good to know that its a safe area, i was a bit nervous to find out that it was in East LA... Where Dr Dre and B I G was at lol. Kiddin...

Hi Ksnurseks, So I called HR and congrats on your interview. I'll apply again for the next wave. Just wondering in advance on what you did on your application to get selected? Any advice? Thanks!
