  1. When do I start applying?

    cappuccinespresso replied to newnurse1234567's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hi, newnurse! I agree with LadyLeopard on this--it's best to look at new grad positions now, look at their timelines and then prepare yourself for it. I graduated November last year and didn't start...

  3. Passed NCLEX-RN in 75 questions - tips and reviews

    cappuccinespresso posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi, everyone! I'm a new BSN graduate (got my degree last month), took the NCLEX on the 29th. Computer shut off at 75 questions, the entire exam took 1 hour and 5 minutes. I've been constantly checking...

  4. Thank you letters for panel interview

    cappuccinespresso posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I just had a panel interview yesterday for an RN position. I was thinking of writing thank you notes and figured it would be best to do it via a handwritten note. My aunt (who's also a nurse in the...

  5. Kayexalate for constipation?

    cappuccinespresso posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I was reading my patient's drug orders, one of her PRN meds is Kayexalate, and the doctor states on the orders that it is to be given for her constipation. Now this confuses me, because I read in my...

  6. Care plan questions

    cappuccinespresso posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Hi, everyone! I really need help with this for my care plan. I need to put in rationales for abnormal lab values and I'm not sure if what I have in mind is correct or not. Here are the details: Obese...

  7. Care plan questions

    cappuccinespresso replied to cappuccinespresso's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Pt is female (oops, did I not mention that? haha), and according to Pt, she hasn't drunk alcohol in about 30 years. I read in her history that she had a lady partsl bleed around 2004 (Pt is currently...

    cappuccinespresso replied to CaptCrzy's topic in California Nursing

    @nissy_nc Condolences to you, and I hope we still get to see each other once you start in April! :) @MarineWfe09 88% is really high! :) Good luck and I hope you get in to Cohort

    cappuccinespresso replied to CaptCrzy's topic in California Nursing

    @ksantos92 Mine was 87.3%, and I have around 3.5~3.7 on the Math and Sciences GPA (forgot my calculations to be honest). @nissy_nc Yay, we got in! So we'll see each other on the 30th

    Hi, guys! I just got an acceptance e-mail from NU! Did anyone else get an

  11. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    cappuccinespresso replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Hi, everyone. Still no news? I'm trying not to freak out, but I'm going crazy with all this waiting! I really thought we'd know by now, but I guess my expectations of their efficiency and the ease of...

  12. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    cappuccinespresso replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Hmm. The example for the 3.84 GPA doesn't make sense to me mathematically since only 30 points maximum are given for the Math and Science based questions--it would be wrong to have 41.143 points in...

  13. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    cappuccinespresso replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Yes, your new explanation was the one I initially did before asking here at Allnurses and it's the same as calculating the GPA regularly, but the one you said where I have to multiply it by 10 and...

  14. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    cappuccinespresso replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    SammiN, in calculating the Math and Science Based GPA, where did you get all those numbers (ie. 10, 28...although I'm assuming the 30 is from 30%)? Because if I plug in any random GPA, if it's greater...

  15. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    cappuccinespresso replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Hi, everyone! I also applied for the same cohort--now it's the crazy waiting game, but I guess the days will pass by quickly as it's already October. They did say we'll hear from them around the last...

  16. National University Cohort 33 Applicants and/or members

    cappuccinespresso replied to CaptCrzy's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Alissa, I also applied for this cohort--I just finished taking the TEAS yesterday and although I didn't get the score I wanted, I think I did fine. How did you calculate your Math and Sciences...

    cappuccinespresso replied to honeybadgerdontcare's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Hi! I just took the TEAS today, so the memory of it is still fresh in my mind. I took the online practice test (A) and my version of the protored TEAS was done online. I found that the real test had...
