  1. I took my NCLEX on Valentine's Day 2018 (that's how much I "love" myself!). The exam cut off at 75 questions and I left feeling fine but got on the metro to enjoy a nice dinner and broke down and started crying in public! I SWORE UP AND DOWN I failed...
  2. HOW ACCURATE IS THE PEARSON Vue TRICK?

    The PVT worked for me and I just took the exam on Valentine's Day 2018. I did some research and apparently, if you PASSED the "good pop up" is 99% accurate before having to pay for quick results, basically the chances of getting a false positive are...
  3. Planning move to California

    I applied to a bunch of jobs in Cali as a new grad but was unlucky, so I'll be signing a contract in DC. But once that's over, this information will be good to have! Thanks!
  4. Low UWorld Scores/Assessments....passed NCLEX in 75!

    Can I just say THANK YOU VERYYYYYYY MUCH for this post!! I had to catch myself from falling into the trap of comparing my preparation to others and letting the sob stories of not passing get me down. This is a great example of people still successful...
  5. MedStar Washington Hospital RN Residency Program

    MEEEEE!!!! SICU!!
  6. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

    I'm so confused about the self-identification page you all are referring too! I Already filled mine out at the end of the application and I got a confirmation email when I applied on 10/25. On 11/2 my application changed to "under consideration".
  7. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

    WHAT!!!! I really hope that they are not biased against out of state applicants! I have no family or friends in Cali so I can't just move there for the sake of having a "San Diego address" without a job. Cali's way too expensive to do that. We'll s...
  8. Sharp New Grad Residency 2018

    DC resident here!! I applied to Sharp Grossmont Surgical Intensive Care Unit!! I thought it was so annoying that I could only pick one unit. I also applied to Scripps and didn't hear a peep so I'm hoping SOMETHING pans out!! My dream is to move cros...
  9. RN working as a CNA

    I'm not sure how it works in NY but in MD once you take and pass your NCLEX you are no longer allowed to work or apply as a CNA, so don't bother! Just start networking like your life depends on it and apply! My Hopkins coworker went to several job fa...
  10. UMSON CNL Fall 2015

    Hey Guys! There's already a general group for applicants for Fall 2015, but since the majority are applying to the BSN program, I wanted to start this thread for people applying to the CNL program. So...who's applying with me? :)
  11. Should I leave this racist town?

    Can I ask what part of the country you are in? I'm super curious because I'm a black nursing student interested in travel nursing and I would like to know what parts of the country to avoid. Life is way to short to deal with racist bigoted people!
  12. UMSON CNL Fall 2015

    To be perfectly honest, I ended up not really using that book and the med calc book we were required to buy was NEVER TOUCHED (such a flippin waste of $$$!)!! What I would recommend for you is to first and foremost find a method that works for you. ...

  14. CNL Applicants - Spring 2016

    In terns of books, I bought my books as cheap as possible in the best possible condition. I probably spent $500. Also the library has a bunch of Nursing care plan books, so I highly recommend you go through them and buy a copy of the one you like the...
  15. CNL Applicants - Spring 2016

    My advice: #1: Do not buy the book required for the NURS 507 class!! You won't use it! #2: if you can, get involved with student orgs like GNA, Nurses for Global Health, SUPER, you'll have the chance to meet older CNL student who are willing to help ...
  16. Where in the US do they need RNs really bad?

  17. Note taking in class....how do you do it.

  18. Nursing corps scholarship 2015-2016

    So I haven't heard anything nor have I had a credit check and my application status still says "Under Review"...should I be concerned or give up hope?

    Hey everyone!! It was so great meeting everyone who attended SSIP #1 yesterday!! As promised I wanted to share a great resource for anyone looking for more dosage calculation practice. Search this title in Amazon or any other website you buy books f...
  20. 3.4 gpa-doomed?

    As controversial as this statement is, in my personal experience (PLEASE READ THAT DISCLAIMER!) I found this to be 100% true! Graduated from a very expensive/prestigious undergrad school and took the equivalent of nursing pre-reqs with med school st...
  21. SLU AMSN Fall 2015

    Hey guys! Today I received my acceptance letter for the Accelerated MSN Program for Fall 2015!! I'm SUPER excited but super nervous! I'm from Washington DC and have only been to the mid-west only once in my life and that was almost 20 years ago when...
