    Was Pharm a biggie on the nclex-rn?

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

    One thing you might want to consider, OP, is that the computer keeps tossing questions at you until it determines you are above the passing standard in every category...or you're not, and it shuts off...

    Do Females perform better on the NCLEX?

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

    The short answer to your question is "no" and in the end your paper wouldn't support your idea. As for providing links, data, research.....if you type your key words into Google, you will pull up...

    Future Nursing Student

    RNsRWe replied to KMCRLM's topic in General Nursing

    Some schools are tough, some not so much. Typically a better education is one that you work for, not skate through. How hard it is to you? No idea, much depends on what kind of student you are in...

    RNsRWe replied to Circulate's topic in Men in Nursing

    The facility you eventually become employed by will dictate the Big Picture. As long as you don't violate the dress code (or Infection Control standards!) I guess you could figure it out from there....

    The HARD Truth for most nurses

    RNsRWe replied to Humaneclowninscrubs's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Well thank heavens I'm not fat, because I'd obviously be less competent! /sarcasm Still, I wouldn't expect to serve on a support group without the presence of donuts. And coffee. Make 'em Boston...

    Random Valuable NCLEX Facts :)

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

    Hi there! You might want to keep in mind that the nursys website only gets their information AFTER the individual State BoNs send it to them. Checking your OWN BoN website is faster, and frankly more...

    And you STILL don't understand how this scoring system works. And neither do they. But since you don't like my "attitude" I imagine you won't like actually learning something from anything I've...

    Is this a VALID reason to terminate someone?

    RNsRWe replied to lllenjolll's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Just a thought, but even if an order did say "PRN", surely the facility DID have a policy. And in absence of another directive, you should have followed that facilty's policy. Ignorance is not an...

    RNsRWe replied to eelmara's topic in General Students

    If your GPA is weak, I'm not so sure an accelarated program is your best bet. It's a fast-paced, intense program and if you didn't do well in a traditional setting you aren't likely to do well in...

    ADN in NY

    RNsRWe replied to ChrisB718's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As you've already read, BSN is preferred; ADNs can and do find work but there are SO MANY new grads, you need to do what you can to hedge your bets. A bachelor degree that is not in nursing is not of...

    The HARD Truth for most nurses

    RNsRWe replied to Humaneclowninscrubs's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Something just occured to me: I have known people, mostly think of former school classmates, who were going into nursing to "save the day". You know the ones: they think they will be saving lives...

    How to get a job as an RN?

    RNsRWe replied to NurseRA's topic in General Nursing

    Much depends on what area of the country you are in. Some States are so saturated with new grads, it takes a year or more to land a job. Others have jobs right after graduation. See what's available...

    I feel uncomfortable doing this

    RNsRWe replied to BSNbeauty's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Doesn't speak well of the quality of those schools, then. Maybe this is why so many nurses coming from there need to take more classes to make their BSNs equal ours.....or even repeat the curriculum...
