Hi all, I applied for the same and already submitted my applications. I think, they want to know your idea of performance improvement project topics through your experience as a student nurse. Good luck!! Mine wasn't a fancy topic but I wrote about what I had in mind. Good luck everyone, hope we all get through the next process:)

Hi everyone, I applied for the same too!! I tried contacting the HR and left a voicemail!! No response yet!! Please keep us updated!! Status still says application received!!

Thank you so much for the great advice pumpkinspice555!! That's a great way to start of, I finished my ACLS and BLS. I will be taking the EKG class. I will definitely stop by the local hospitals to ask for when the career fair is. That is a great advice. Thank you again for your kindness!!

Hello Everyone, I am Brand new R.N and need some help with building my Resume. I know the job market is hard out there, I was wondering if anyone knows someone who will help build a good Resume for you?? I already have a Resume but I like mine to stand out from the rest. I did some research and it would cost me few hundred dollars. Please let me know if anyone have some good recommendations. Thank you everyone and Good luck!!!

Thank you all:):)

Thank you everyone;) God Bless!!!

Hello Everyone, I just want to share my NCLEX journey with you all. I took my first NCLEX in the first week of May and I got 265 Questions. I was tired, highly anxious the whole 6 hours. I cried all the way home and almost for 3 days, I cried. All my friends passed and I was the only one who didn't made it. My parents and my boy friend was so supportive and they took me out to cheer up and advise me never to give up. I usually have very high anxiety and the NCLEX got it out of me on that day. Oh also I used the Kaplan QBank, Qtrainers and the kaplan book for my first test. One week after my first test, I started all over again. I bought the Saunders book, La Charity and Exam Cram. I realized, I need to strengthen my content before I practice the questions. I studied for 5-6 hours, 5 days a week for a 37 days. I did 150 questions a day and few chapters from Saunders. Let me tell everyone, the Saunders book really helped me understand the concept well. Okay, so after around 50 days since my last exam, I took my second NCLEX. The exam center was an hour away but my dearest dad paid for a hotel nearby for the night before the test and he gave me company till I went in to take my test. He gave me a big hug before I went in and told me to just try my best and leave the rest in God's hand. Once again, Guess what?? I had 265 questions. But this time I got way more SADA'S, lets say around 40 atleast ,7-8 math, lots of priority, lot of meds and OMG lots of EKG strips. I was so mad because I didn't really study those in detail. Even though it took me 5.5 hours long, I was suprisinly calm and I felt better than the first time. My poor dad was waiting for me inside the car this whole time and when I came out, he gave me a big hug and told me he had a good feeling about the test this time. He took me to lunch and we drove back. This time I didn't shed a single tear surprisingly. But trust me, I been praying so much and I did manage to keep a calm mind. But I was still nervous to check the PVT, so I waited till the next day evening for my parents to come back from work. And I let me dad check it, I was holding my moms hand and was seriously about to have a heart attack. But guess what??? I got a good pop up. I then checked it again myself and same pop up. I kinda thought I passed, but I didn't tell anyone till I got my license this morning at 6.30 a.m. Pretty much, this sums up my journey and I am the happiest person Today and this is my best early birthday gift:) I thank God, my wonderful parents and my boyfriend for putting up with me and being soo supportive through this process. Also, I want to thank everyone who wrote on this website because I read a lot of blogs and people here are so supportive and optimistic. Everyone please Don't Give Up and remember its not because you are not smart. Some people are better test takers, so they perform better. Keep your head up and I will pray for everyone preparing for this dreadful test!!!

Thank you all for the great support and suggestions. I appreciate every advice and motivation. Praying for everyone and God Bless!!

Thank you so much for your kind words pumpkinspice555. I finally sat down with my parents and talk to them about how it makes me feel. They have nothing but supportive of me and they told me, they are always so proud of me no matter what. I feel much better and day by day, it's getting little better. I want to be a Nurse and it has been my dream. I won't give up and keep working hard. I read your PM this morning and it made my day. I appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness. Have a blessed day!!

Thank you so much for all the good words and support pumpkinspice555. I have been praying so hard and have faith in God. I am not going to lie, I am very embarrassed because all my friends passed and I feel like I left my family and my loved ones down. I have been a good, hard working student and I feel like I at least deserve to pass. This has hit me so hard but I am hoping,I will gather my strength and start it again on Monday. Thank you for all the resources too. Your help and support is so appreciated. I am a shy girl and I am so glad, I can express my thoughts and feelings here. God bless your heart.

Thank you obloom14, I will be taking few days off and buy some more resources, so that I can pass the next time. I have faith in myself and God. I just need to pull myself together for some strength. Thank you Nurse428, I have been crying since yesterday and it feels like my worst nightmare. I am losing hope but I know, I can't give up. I know God has a better plan for me next time. Thank you for all your support and encouragement. @ereyes24: Thank you for all the positive thoughts, I know I can't give up but I am not sure, what I need to do different. I did all 1300 questions on kaplan and all the question trainers+watched the videos and read the content book from kaplan. I am planning to buy NCLEX exam cram, Saunders review and the prioritization book by Lacharity. My email is [email protected]. What other books do everyone suggest?? Please help!!

Hey guys, so finally I checked my Pvt and it took me straight to credit card. So I failed and I am more devastated. Can someone tell me how accurate it is since I checked after more than 24 hours after the test?? I am sobbing again. Please help.
