1. Is my Bachelors degree in another field useful in nursing??

   MedLove replied to erogersii's topic in General Students

   You have to do research before you say these things. I went to UCLA- and now I'm in a MSN, FNP at a State university in California. So you are not correct. It's not a "money maker" its a public university. Psychology is a "science" major and there ...

   MedLove replied to erogersii's topic in General Students

   In my case it did!!! I've been a nurse for 3 years in CA. I have a BS in Psychology from a top University and my hospital (a large CA hospital) liked it. I am currently enrolled in a MSN, FNP program at a university. I had to take a couple classes to...

   Chels11- DO NOT MOVE TO THE EAST SIDE!!! Look in either south or west san jose. Many clinicals are at VMC so stay west if you look over there. Rents are sky high right now, but please beware of "cheap" places because they will surely be in dangero...

   Yeah- it's weird for me to not be starting a new semester! It's sad to say- but I miss nursing school and being with all my close friends each day.

   I would buy the app for your phone. I have the "nursing central" app and it's $99/year but worth every penny- it's a drug guide, taber's dictionary and much more. I used and still use it all the time. Don't waste money on the taber's hard copy and yo...

   I focused 200% on the powerpoints and 25% on the reading. Exactly what you said- you read the PowerPoint and then you read that part in the book for clarity and better understanding. It is impossible for most people to do 100% of the reading- so make...

8. 2014 Pearson Vue Trick (PVT) Poll

   MedLove replied to mslovebug's topic in NCLEX

   From what I have read on here it really varies. I am in California and I took the boards on 7/24 and my license number was on Breeze on the 7/26 (so 48 hours later). Others in my program who are passing are also seeing license numbers on Breeze in ...

    It would be yes you took nclex before, no not for the same license, yes for a different license. I would answer all questions honestly.

    MedLove replied to mslovebug's topic in NCLEX

    Yes- you took it before so that's correct. Then it says for the same license and then for a different license I believe. They are asking if you have taken NCLEX PN before. At least I think that's correct.

    MedLove replied to mslovebug's topic in NCLEX

    I took NCLEX - RN on 7/24/14 in CA. I finished in 75 questions. I did the PVT a couple hours later and got the good pop-up. My name and license were on Breeze on 7/26/14 (to my surprise). A friend of mine took it in June, passed with 75 questions ...
