Ms. Sweetheart

I don't mind doing it, because at my job I get very minimal patient contact... So I'm relatively clean almost everyday. That being said, that wasn't the case at my previous job at an LTC facility... I would always keep extra clothes in the trunk of my car... Just in case

Ok just an update... I know, I know, super late but allnurses sort of took a back seat while I was dealing with some stuff. I finally took my nclex, on April 27th, on the 29th I found out I passed... With the minimum amount of questions and in 38 minutes flat... (Even the man in charge of the sight was in shock lol😅) and by the following Monday (less than one week after my exam) I was sitting with my supervisor scheduling my orientation... I was crazy blessed, I know people that are still looking for work. Even though it's been six months since they took their nclex, I had a job lined up before I even graduated. I'm so blessed and happy, and just enjoying life now. Thanks for you're advice... 😁😁

So I guess I'm just ranting on this post, but I seriously need some major support. Like I'm feeling so depressed, I can't sleep and I've gained like 6 lbs. So here goes, I applied for my NLCEX-PN in early January, and did the whole process and paid and everything. I even did my mandatory credit hours, the whole shebang. Now over the past few weeks, they've kept sending me emails saying there's a discrepancy between the information on my application and what the school sent. So I addressed the issue and when I called the state board, they said everything was fine, that I just had to wait. Ok, so I wait.... fast forward to today. In the past 7 weeks, I've gotten multiple emails saying the discrepancy is still there!! I've contacted my program director, I've called the state board, I've done just about everything I can think of. And they just keep saying, they have everything they need, that I just have to wait. I graduated 3 months ago... and I feel that the more time passes by the stupider I get. I have been studying to keep up and stay in "nurse" mode, but I'm just so stressed and depressed all I want to do is cry!! Everyone else in my class took theirs and I'm the only one left... Can anyone please just give me some help? Or words of encouragement?

I've been wondering too... All I know is that my cousin took 3 semesters there and she moved over here and she wants to finish here. Anyways, when she asked them about her transcript they said that they can send it but they charge a fee (normal with all schools), the transcript never came and they charged her the fee twice... so I'm kind of afraid to attempt with that school? IDK?

Congrats man I just finished my associates too, and honestly if you took all your classes in puerto rico then you'll be fine. I'm puerto rican (I was actually looking into studying in p.r.) and when I was looking up all the information for school it all said pretty much the same thing. Not just because nursing is a world wide profession, but because p.r. is also a part of the u.s. so it's all more or less the same thing just in two different languages. You'll be fine, if you made it this far then there's no doubt that you won't let a small thing like this get in your way.

LMAO!!! Sorry I like Pirates, they're awesome. :-P

I say go for the timbs. Just remember since they are for women you have to go up two shoe sizes lol. And don't feel so bad... I'm a female but my feet are so tiny it's hard to find any shoes merely because of my shoe size.

Just here to give some closure to my previous posts. I got accepted into the Reading Hospital School of Health Sciences for fall of 2013... I'm so happy, I was seriously stressing. Some advice that my mother gave me that I hope you guys find helpful, "you have to live your life as if you've already accomplished what you want". This seriously helped me, positivity goes a long way.

Just to give some closure to my previous posts... I got accepted... yay... I'm doong my pre reqs now...

Just out of sheer curiosity... why do you want a spanish certificate? I mean if you just want to learn spanish you can do that online, right? My college offers it online, would that maybe be easier then having to actually go in to class?

That sounds fantastic... I feel so guilty, I'm a bit jealous. I wish things were going as smoothly for me.

@tortia1 I know exactly how you feel I've been stressing out for a little over a month and a half about my "fate" lol... The admissions comittee just met on monday, now I'm just waiting for my mail... I'm afraid I might scare the mail man with all this energy i have built up inside me. I've been praying and I'll put you into my prayers too... hopefully by God's hands we will all get into our programs of choice.

Im waiting for the admissions commitee to meet on march 18th. I should here hy next week if I got in or not. If I did get it ill be starting this upcoming fall in the day tract. I'm praying I get it I've wotked so hard but I bombed the teas v because I was so nervous. Aaaahhhhh!!!

OMG!! Congratulations... I just took my TEAS V today and I was so anxious I felt nauseas. I hope I get accepted there, if I do I'll be starting classes in the fall. Just out of curiousity what was your TEAS V score, if you don't mind me asking.
