  1. How to pass a nursing class?

    julz68 replied to lbmRN2014's topic in General Students

  3. Curious about other testing sites

    julz68 posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Just out of plain curiosity, how strict was your testing site for NCLEX? I just wanted to know if they are all the same. Yesterday I took my exam in Des Moines, IA. I was told by our instructors to...

  4. Anxiety is building up..

    julz68 replied to babykulit2000's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I took all the advice begosh gave me...the same they told you. I also prayed...A LOT! I arrived 30 minutes early and sat in my car and prayed too. Prayer does work. I passed my first try 2 days ago....

  5. did really good on ATI predictor

    julz68 replied to BlueEyedGuy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think you'll do fine. My school utilized ATI also. I think it's pretty accurate. I also used other resources like Saunders NCLEX-RN CD and book and NCLEX 3500. Just do practice questions every day...

  6. It's Official!

    julz68 replied to julz68's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you! When I saw "PASS" on my account, I broke down and cried. All that hard work paid off. There were times during school that I thought about quitting. (I was going thru a lot of personal...

  7. Curious about other testing sites

    julz68 replied to julz68's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Nope. No gum where I went either. Kinda ridiculous I think. How is a person going to cheat with chewed up gum??

    julz68 replied to acotusrn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  10. Wow... NCLEX was a JOKE.... studied 4 days...

    julz68 replied to kobebryant's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Why would you say it's a joke? I disagree. Yes, I took it and passed the first time just 2 days ago, but I definitely wouldn't say it's a

  11. Nclex on a blizzard day... Do they cancel?

    julz68 replied to vizzle's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not sure if they do or not, but I do know that one of my classmate's test date was the morning after a blizzard last week. She lived over 2 hours away and they added an extra hour to their drive...

  12. Schedule my Exam Date--So scared don't feel prepared. Will I ever feel prepared?

    julz68 replied to nalaa83's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It's true, most people don't feel ready. At least I didn't anyway. We did ATI all thru school and 2weeks after graduation we did an ATI live review. By that time I was sick of ATI so I borrowed a...

  13. I think I am severely Depressed...Is this normal?

    julz68 replied to NurseKis's topic in General Students

    Do not give up. I was an A/B student as well and my grades changed in nursing school. Nursing is hard, there's no doubt about it. Maybe you could find a study buddy or a tutor? There were tests that I...

  14. Bummed about first round of nursing school tests.

    julz68 replied to EMT89's topic in General Students

    I was an A/B student until I entered into the nursing program. We had to get 77% to pass exams or even the course itself, except Pharm and Dosage Calc in which we had to have 90% to pass. Nursing is...

  18. Clinical instructor...not getting along

    julz68 replied to Band's topic in General Students

    I would ask to make an appointment with her and talk to her privately and express your concerns. I had one instructor when I was in school that I felt the same way about. Every other instructor I had...

  23. Stupid question...

    julz68 replied to julz68's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The Pearson Vue Trick. If you try to register again after you take NCLEX, you can find out if you passed or not by getting a pop up saying that you can't register at this time. If it takes you to the...

    They don't permit paper or pencils. But they do provide you with a small white board and marker...but you can't erase it. If you run out of space you have to raise your hand and they will take it and...
