  1. Still no ATT.... Ohio =(

    I heard the same thing (BON is backed up, you won't test till October, etc.). Our school didn't get our paperwork in until mid-June. Imagine my surprise when I got my ATT last week, and could have...
  2. Questions most similar to NCLEX questions?

    Thanks!
  3. Questions most similar to NCLEX questions?

    LadyFree28 - thank you for the reply; I will check out the NCSBN
  4. NCLEX 2014/Kaplan

    Nurse2bMN - what do you mean by "get the green light" from ATI? We had to take (as part of our program, not part of the Live Review) the ATI RN Comprehensive Predictor, on which I scored a 99%...
  5. NCLEX 2014/Kaplan

    I am taking it in early July (graduated in May, and I'm the only one in my class to get an ATT thus far -- got it this week). I did the ATI Live review, but that was the week after graduation, in...
  6. Just hoping to do a quick, very unscientific poll of those who have taken both the ATI RN Comprehensive Predictor exam and the NCLEX. (I've taken the former, but won't take the latter till July.) I...

    Thanks for the responses, everyone -- and

    Thanks! And
  9. Spring Break Countdown

    I am bitterly jealous of people getting actual breaks. We have several assignments we have to do on "spring break" -- including but not limited to two ATIs, EMR training and testing for the last...
  10. Graduating May 2014! :)

    When I am super stressed (almost always) and I have a few moments (almost never), I pop on Pinterest and plan for the graduation party I am hosting for my classmates and our nearest and dearest.
  11. Grad party ideas

    So, at long last, graduation is looming! I am hosting a party this summer for my classmates, and I want it to have a nursing theme (naturally!). I have some good ideas so far, like Jell-O shots in...
  12. Grad party ideas

    Thanks for the ideas. I saw a pic of a red beverage in a cath bag. It was a little
  13. Graduating May 2014! :)

    74 days till graduation -- can't come soon
  14. What do you mean by "Adult Health" -- the grade one earns in adult med/surge
  15. My Support Group is Dropping Out, Help!

    The two people with whom I quickly became close in my first semester both left the program -- one left during the first semester, and the other didn't come back for second semester. I study...
  16. I am doing it, as are the majority of my 18 classmates. I work 40+ hours a week as a paralegal (standard business hours) and go to classes at night and clinical on the weekends. It's go go go 7 days...
  17. It's 0100 hour..... Do you know where your sanity is?

    Sounds like my first year! Don't worry -- you will eventually get so exhausted that you will indeed sleep again, and those thoughts will simply become your dreams. Hang in
  18. Counting Down for Spring Break

    I'm eagerly anticipating spring break, but frankly I still have to work, and I already have three assignments to do on break as well. My big countdown is to graduation -- 81 more
  19. Mistakes to avoid in clinicals..

    All of the above -- and I would add that the importance of professionalism can't be overstated. Be aware of how your behavior may be perceived. You may be discussing school-related things with you...
  20. Failed Second Fundamentals Test

    I agree with the advice you've received thus far. - For heaven's sake, go see your instructor -- as many times as it takes. If you don't know precisely what you are doing wrong, you won't be able...
  21. Practicing "nursing" w/o a license...?

    Wow. Well, in many states one may not call herself a nurse if she is not in fact a licensed nurse. As for the other stuff, perhaps you could check your state's regulations for scope of practice. It...
  22. First day of clinical rotation - your experience?

    Wow -- so funny to think back on that as a fourth semester student. I was on a med/surg-tele floor. My pt was relatively young, walky-talky, and I was scared $***less. S/he was very nice, but...
  23. "Just" a CNA?!

    Right
  24. EKG Interpretation

    Thank
  25. I work full time and go to school full time. I do have a husband and a mortgage, but with a less expensive residence, I would be able to comfortably live independently while I went to school (which...
