    I like that approach. Too bad so many of the BONs are too concerned with $$$ to change

    I use NetCE & never have had an issue with the TXBON. They even audited me once, not a word was

    Not transferring transcripts due to bad grades?

    OrganizedChaos replied to AdventureAddict's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How is it the "truth"? It is your opinion that the OP doesn't send his/her transcript. Which is a really bad opinion because it's being dishonest & could result in the OP getting kicked out of...

    Instead of those people spending all the money in the world on review courses, they should just go back to school. This is why I believe the NCLEX should be limited to 3 tries in every

    VA NP programs that require no RN experience

    OrganizedChaos replied to here2learnRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you don't have the determination to go to school after some time away, then maybe you should reconsider things. I have 2 children & nothing can keep me away from going back to school. I will be...

    How should I pursue my degree?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Zena84's topic in General Students

    I read you're going to an online college. Before you commit to taking your sciences online I would contact any & all schools you might be considering & ask them if they accept online sciences....

    OrganizedChaos replied to cjcsoon2bnp's topic in General Nursing

    This is a great article!!! I am about to have my second son & I always feel guilty when the nurses ask the question if I will breast or bottle feed. I take such a high dose of Topamax & Zoloft...

    Is the Baby Boomer Generation not going to get good care?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Cola89's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    So true. There is a poster who blatantly said she didn't want to work bedside at all (even though she hasn't passed the NCLEX). That makes me lose hope in the future of

    OrganizedChaos replied to mindy kaling's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What about covering lateral violence instead of just the "NETY" phenomenon? New grads bully experienced nurses & people of equal experience bully each other. Doctor's bully nurses & managers...

    She doesn't care. Look how she made this whole thread to be about her when most of the comments aren't even directed at her. Glad I blocked

    Got fired for a medication error

    OrganizedChaos replied to Sonyab's topic in Patient Medications

    I hope this is not for real because if it is, it is truly terrifying. This is basic nursing fundamentals. It doesn't matter how long your orientation was or wasn't, if you can't practice safely as a...

    Failed NCLEX 11 times.

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mtng's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It all varies state to state. Some states only let you test 3 times while others let you test an unlimited amount of times. I know why the states who let test takers take it multiple times ($$$) but...

    I don't know if you're being sarcastic or rude but I am done with your comments. You come here asking for help, ignore the help & then get salty when experienced nurses give you feedback you don't...

    There is a difference between failing once & 10+ times. It has been proven every time you fail the higher the likelihood is you will continue to

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mtng's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am far from having natural book smarts, I always struggled in school. Not to mention I went through nursing school before I was diagnosed bipolar. That made nursing school very difficult for me, but...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mtng's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    ??? Says who ??? I guess you should warn all the bed side nurses to that may lose their license. That mentality is thoroughly over done. In my 7 years of being a nurse I have never once had the BON...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mtng's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This also scares me for the future of nursing. No one wants to work at the bedside any more. Who is gonna take care of all the Baby Boomers? I won't even get into how you shouldn't be picky because...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mtng's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    There is just something so scary about someone having to take the NCLEX 5+ times. We have people's lives in our hands. Taking multiple years & tries to pass the NCLEX is mortifying. The old adage...

    Poop is everywhere, even out in the "real" world. It's unavoidable.

    Want I haven't been in nursing for that long but from what I have seen in person & on here I don't think the future of nursing is in good hands. Between all the special snowflakes crying NETY, no...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Philly85's topic in General Nursing

    How is that pedestal you're on? High enough? Critizing an experienced nurse when you, yourself have zero nursing experience & exclaiming you wanted to "slap her" is petty. How can you criticize...
