    Took nclex 9 times

    In that case I would suggest purchasing the qbank from Kaplan or any other place and practicing hundreds of questions daily. You need to figure out how to choose the correct answer. Since you say you...

    Took nclex 9 times

    I don't even know what else to advise you. It seems you have tried everything. Do you know why you are failing? Is it content? Or is it the style of questions? Or do you get too nervous? 9 times seems...

    Scrubs cost WHAT???

    200$ is ok. I had to pay 200$ for scrubs plus 50$ for lab coat and extra for patches and name tags and if u tend to get cold we had to buy the "special" turtleneck for another

    Pregrad Nursing Home/ LTC

    I honestly don't know from experience what it's like. However, I have read a great number of threads here about LTC and I have never seen anyone say that it's slow pace. From what I hear it depends on...
  10. I don't really know anything about your school, but 80 is not bad. I would focus on getting As in the prereqs because gpa matters especially in
  11. Oh and what rn_abbey said
  12. Honestly, it just depends. I know there are all kinds of crazy bugs out there. All I can do to protect myself and my family is to keep all the vaccinations current, maintain good hand hygiene, and...

    Mine was 3.7 overall but 4.0 in the nursing school prereqs. I was accepted in 4 out 5 programs I applied to :-) 3.69 seems good to
  14. We were allowed to do iv pushes in 2nd and 3rd semester. In fourth we were not allowed to push narcotics, but ok for everything else. It depends on the facility and instructor/nurse preference from...

    can't find the prioritization answer

    I would definitely put answer 2. I have seen a few nclex questions and their rationales do not always make sense. Either the wording of the question is wrong or the answer they r choosing is...
  23. So being a nursing student myself I was trying really hard to understand why u feel the instructor was picking on u and all I got is that u failed to follow the rules time after time. If anyone in my...
