Thank you guys for your input! I will look into that. Question on ENA: I am an NSNA member still, and I don't know if I can still join the ENA with the special NSNA member rate, or I need to pay $100 since I am an RN now,.. no longer a nursing student. Thanks!

Hi guys, I just passed NCLEX and right now I cannot get a job since my visa was delayed due to the gov. shut down... so I am thinking of doing TNCC. I'm new to this area (finally moved from NCLEX discussion forum) and hopefully I can get some help here. I'm a new graduate nurse with no experience.. (I've got ACLS, PALS) Will I be eligible to take TNCC? (I know most of them require 6 mo experience in ER/ICU). Also, is CEN something I can study as well or critical care experience is a must? Thank you! :)

Personally I feel NCLEX is less structured than the kaplan test... maybe because i ran into enormous amount of SATAs, math, and conference questions. I was so confused and was less confident than doing my kaplan tests where I could find a pattern and apply the kaplan strategies.. So practice SATAs and priority questions (conference questions are priority ones). Anyways, don't give up when running into unfamiliar topics and questions types. I didn't get frustrated like the first time I took NCLEX.. and i guess I did the right thing this time passing at 75! :) Keep kaplan scores above 65% and boost up your weakest content area/question types. You will be fine

im in the same boat.. im a 2nd time taker, too. my QT scores were 64-71%, and I just took nclex yesterday got the good PVT pop up. I think you are doing pretty good on your score. I feel QT 7 is much harder ..(maybe because it's long, too) When i studied for my first nclex trial, i hardly get 50%s... After a long QT test, I usually spend a day or two reading my weakest content areas, and do 50 qbanks from that content area. I felt that helped a lot!

Congrats! I just took mine this morning and ended up 75 questions by 9:30 am lol..... I have tons of SATAs (about 15), and lots of math questions, too. Couldn't believe it cause last time I did 265 questions.. I got the good PVT pop out though!! We will see..

Will pray for you! I will take it on the 5th.. for the 2nd time. Hope you will do great!

Mine on Oct 4..... freaking out too. I failed first time with 265..
