  1. I just want my ATT!!!!!!!!

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I've been out of nursing school since December 11, 2015! It is January 28, 2016 and I have no ATT yet. Long story short, transcript released last week, transcript request completed, registered and...

  2. The Second Week

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to pinksnowflakes's topic in General Students

    Calm down. Lol! Nursing school is a lot and first semester is about learning how to think differently from what you may be used to doing. NCLEX questions are not the way to go right now, that comes...

  3. Clinical instructor keeps handing out clinical warnings?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to lilfayfay's topic in General Students

    As a recent graduate of nursing school (Dec. 2015) I'm not far removed from the nervousness of performing tasks in front of instructors who are watching your every move. The key, though, is...

  4. NCLEX is OVER!! ... Now what?!

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to CiaMia's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Sending vibes of good luck to you! You will pass! You will pass! I'm still waiting on my ATT (December graduate), my school is stupid, disorganized, and just stupid. I just want to test before the...

  5. Nclex tomorrow: just signed up today

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to sara567's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm anxious to know how things went...update please!

  6. Just took my nclex

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Jr./RN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Its neither here nor there at this point, but 75 questions does not mean an automatic pass. I know folks who have failed at that many or just beyond that. Nonetheless, a big old CONGRATULATIONS to...

  7. I didn't study for the NCLEX and I passed, first try, with 75qs

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to RNBSN0105's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Lol! Thanks for making me feel so inadequate! Lol, just kidding. Well, sounds like you are an anomaly, breezing through nursing school, scoring high on predictors, not studying for nclex, drinking...

  8. How do Hurst q-reviews compare to the real NCLEX questions?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to lwandel's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You sound like me. I did Kaplan throughout nursing school (it was a requirement and part of our grade), I'm doing the Hurst online review now, and I've also been doing the NCLEX Mastery app since my...

  9. Waiting on an Authorization to test

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Chrissygraduatenurse's topic in General Students

    Not true about the school having 10 days...at least not in my state. I graduated December 11, 2015 and just last week the first people are just now getting ATTs. This was a school thing, they didn't...

  10. NCLEX RN Advice

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to merzielynn's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This post was super helpful. I graduated nursing school Dec. 11, 2015. Transcript just got released last week (long, drama-filled story). I am in full on prep mode while I wait for my ATT. I'm hoping...

  11. I swore I wouldn't...

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to SBSN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good luck to all who will be taking NCLEX real soon. I'm still waiting on my transcript to be sent to the state board but I hope to test by the end of the month. I'm currently finishing up my Kaplan...

  12. Failed NCLEX RN 7 times. Need help. Any suggestions are welcome.

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to nursetobe911's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm currently doing Kaplan. I've completed the in-person review course, which was basically 4 days of practice questions, which is easy to lose focus on and zone out sometimes. None the less, practice...

  13. Took nclex, shut off at 75qs, now im scared to know the result

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Micy's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sorry that you didn't pass the first time. I can't imagine how you must feel. Keep your head up and as was already suggested, see what others have done to fair better the second time. Good

  14. Kaplan or UWorld?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to MrPopeye's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm glad I ran across this thread. I just finished nursing school last week (hallelujah!) and start the Kaplan review course next week through my school. I am contemplating doing Hurst as another...

  15. Hurst Review

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to sk123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Do you have a job lined up yet? I ask because if you can get reimbursed for it, then I would say spend the $300. I just finished nursing school and we take Kaplan throughout the program and as a...

  16. My preceptor is everything they taught us NOT to be...

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Live..&..Learn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't understand why it is so difficult for people to offer useful information online instead of pulling out their anonymous claws and ripping people for asking a question. You seriously sound...

  17. My preceptor is everything they taught us NOT to be...

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Live..&..Learn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Are you her

  18. Why do minorities have more respect for nurses?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to Runman1914's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    How shall I say this...actually, first, I'm not sure what you are getting at by asking "how well it would he gone over..." Also, wherein did you find a compliment in this question? Lol! It's almost...

  19. Should Our Study Group Allow a Failing Student to Join?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to WellThatsOod's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looks like you've been given some good ideas as to how to handle the classmate. It has been shown that study groups kept at a minimal number work better so maybe explain that to her. My class has...

  20. Med-Surg when your teacher can't teach

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to cosmicnurse's topic in General Students

    I am in my last semester, halfway through Advanced Adult Health and my instructor is a butthole. The bad part is we have him for two classes, this one and Research Seminar. He does not teach, is often...

  21. What is your dream unit?

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to guest769224's topic in General Nursing

    My dream unit, right now, is Peds oncology and if I can't have that, anything Peds related. I'm a 4th level nursing student so I'm not sure if that will change after I complete my critical care...

  22. That one random nugget of information from nursing school that you've never forgotten..

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    Ahhhh! I loved this video.

  24. That one random nugget of information from nursing school that you've never forgotten..

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    Ha, ha, ha, how do you know its warm and sticky if you don't first touch it.

  25. That one random nugget of information from nursing school that you've never forgotten..

    Jaykalkyn, BSN, RN replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    Lol! What is a Wenckebach? I am in nursing school now, heading into last semester = critical care. We haven't learned that yet, maybe its forthcoming. I just thought it was
