Hey everyone so I just failed my nclex for the second time again! 1st time I got 80 questions this time I got 265 and still failed! It done hurst and Kaplan and ncsbn! I will admit the first time I took it I did not study that much, second time I studied 6-7 hours a day 4-5 days a week! And no I'm completely lost and don't know where to start again! If anyone has any suggestions or anything that may help please let me know! I don't know if I should do ncsbn again or not! Hannah

Just got it approved by the hospital I work at and school! Thanks again for the suggestions! Even if I can't get hired as a new grad atleast I'll get some experience in the ED

Thanks for the post I appreciate the feed back! I currently already work in an ED now as a clerk and am going to be doing my practicum there :) super exited!

Hello I'm currently in nursing school in Denver and I'am trying to figure out the best possible chose for me on where to do my practicum. I have always been interested in ER/Trauma, and i also want to do my practicum somewhere I can learn as much as possible. Normally the nursing school will place you somewhere for your practicum but i know quite a few people who where placed in nursing homes or elementary schools and those two things are the last places i would like to be placed only because that is nothing close to what i want to do and I have done a few rotations already at nursing homes and its not my cup of tea. I have also been told that most places will not hire a new grad in the ER. Im wondering if i can get my foot in the door somewhere in an ER if that would give me a better chance and if I should be careful at choosing which ER to do my practicum at. Im currently looking into Avistas ER but would love some insight on other peoples practicum and there placement. Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
