    Did I fail the NCLEX?

    RNsRWe replied to beksRN14's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It can be tough to know what is above passing standard, and what is below......you might think "duh!" to a question that is above passing standard, so think it's 'easy'. And someone else might be...

    Did I fail the NCLEX?

    RNsRWe replied to beksRN14's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Just a quick fyi: the format of the question has zero to do with the level of the question...IOW, you can have a lot of SATA format questions and fail, and a lot of SATA format questions and pass. If...

    Nurse Staffing Costs

    RNsRWe replied to stewstew03's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I can't be sure what they ACTUALLY did, as I was not high enough up the food chain to be 'in the know'. They usually just TOLD us what they did (whether or not it was done). I frequently worked...

    Nurse Staffing Costs

    RNsRWe replied to stewstew03's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I had an employer who dealt with it by continuing to cut staffing to the bone, allowing higher patient to nurse ratios and lowering staff's ability to provide proper care. How did I deal with it? I...

    RNsRWe replied to kansas_chick1234's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    There's really nothing anyone CAN tell you, except maybe one thing: the first time you took the exam, the computer could determine you were not competent very quickly, in the minimum number of...

    As I think you've seen now, it's very competitive. Let's face it: 180 school days a year, bad weather means snow days off, with a very desirable work schedule (winter breaks, spring breaks, summer...

    Ironically, I had the Wakefield study quoted to me just today. Someone wondering if she got an MMR booster, might she "pass on autism" to her as-yet-unconceived future child?

    No A.C.T/S.A.T's ..Am I Qualified to begin Nursing school?

    RNsRWe replied to EmilyAguirre's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most community colleges will not require SATs (forget ACTs); most universities will (SATs, that is). Start local, ask THEM the requirements, and go from there. Good luck!
