    Failed NCLEX at 133 questions.. First attempt

    Kuriin replied to Jenn0986's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I asked a few friends of mine who failed and all of them said they had math calculations. I wonder if NCLEX considers drug calculations on the failing level? In any case, try UWorld. It really is...

    Giving up my dog

    Kuriin replied to Bsb5685's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Absolutely pathetic. Your definition of "mistreatment" is hilarious. It would have been mistreatment had the owners waited too long. Or kept it and not even bothered to take care of it due to being...

    Giving up my dog

    Kuriin replied to Bsb5685's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    And of course, you have the nurses who do nothing but judge. OP: Sorry you had to go through this. I had to give up my puppy during my psych rotation as I had to protect her from my partner's two dogs...

    I can do your job, you can't do mine.

    Kuriin replied to crobson221's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I always try to take great care of my care partners. I even tell nursing students and orientees that they should follow a PCT for a day just to see what it feels like doing what they

    Littmann Cardiology III - Worth it?

    Kuriin replied to futurenursling's topic in General Students

    If this is a gift, just get the Cardiology IV. I have both the III and the IV and not too much of a difference. However, seeing as how you are not paying this yourself, you might as well get the best...

    Kuriin replied to neogirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is very difficult for people who are color blind. I had isolated my organism in the second week, but, didn't realize it because it looked like I had pink AND purple on my gram stain. I asked...

    How does working as an R.N. beforehand help in being a nurse practitioner?

    Kuriin replied to sarahnp2b103's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Last I checked, nurse practitioners (and by the way, I am married to one) still have to TEACH patients on how to take

    I need a mentor

    I've never heard of a nursing school allowing a student to fail more than two classes before dismissing that

    Bad pop up :(, PVT still works right?

    Kuriin replied to Andrew92's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Weird...guess you can't edit on this subforum. Read through some of your posts and you mentioned you did use an accurate credit card. Did you get the official notice that you failed? Check Breeze (or...

    Bad Pop Up and PASSED NCLEX!

    Kuriin replied to GaJenRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    No. It was trying to request you to put in a valid expiration date. You did not do the correct trick. The PVT still works as long as you put in valid

    Person Vue Trick-It was wrong for me. June 2016

    Kuriin replied to Britt_RN2016's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Again...people seem to be getting the bad popup when using an incorrect expiration. So, saying that the PVT was "wrong" in this case is incorrect. You didn't do it right. Congrats either

    Is learning on a cheap stethoscope better?

    Kuriin replied to Erythropoiesis's topic in General Students

    I bought a cardiology III in my first semester of nursing school and I was able to pick up fine crackles whereas no one else was able to. In short: Yes, buy a good stethoscope and put your name on it....

    Kuriin replied to GaJenRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Seems like most of the incorrect "PVT results" come from those who use fake credit cards. Perhaps you would have gotten the good popup had you used a valid
