Wow ok I may seem boring, but I am a morning person! It is still hard to get up early. But I usually pack my lunch the night before and have all of my things ready as well. When my alarm goes off at 0430, with my eyes half open, I just get up and stu...
I would certainly get the most recent edition of NCLEX review material. Saunders is good. I also used the NCSBN Learning Extension for review. NCSBN Learning Extension . NCLEX preparation . Continuing Education for Nurses . Nursing Faculty Education
I usually have eggs and wheat toast for breakfast, but some days, I'm just not feeling breakfast. When that happens, I have a protein shake. I always have coffee and I always bring quick healthy snacks and try to eat every 3-4 hours.

If they are on this list, then you will be able to sit for the NCLEX. And yes, if you plan on pursuing your BSN, you will need the pre-reqs that TheCommuter mentioned. BVNPT - California Approved Schools
Well personally, I could care less what anyone thinks. That doesn't mean I'm not a caring person, only that I am focused on myself, and not everyone else. Since it's my life to live, I play by my own rules and tend not to get caught up in the who-thi...
