Hi *L ~ Just note of encouragment-- I JUST PASSED the NCLEX last Friday! Hurray! I am a 34 year old Mom of 5 (4 of my own, and 1 stepdaughter!) From College to Kindergarten! When I hit 30 , I thought I BETTER get into school NOW. So , I did.. with alot of encouragement from family. Its a long hard road, but SO INCREDIBLY worth it with every milestone you achieve. It seems like its never going to end then WHAM! Its over and you're an R.N! Keep your chin up and KNOW there is a beautiful light at the end of the tunnel.. just keep telling yourself how much you want it. My children and the importance of role-modeling was my guiding light. Take care, Kate

Hello! I am moving to the Gales Ferry area as soon as my home in RI sells! I am also currently waiting ( until JULY 8TH) to take the NCLEX!!! aarrgh!!! How much time do most people spend preparing/studying for the Nclex??? I have so many things on my plate right now.. I dont know whether to be completely excited or nervous as heck! (ok, Im both!) Does anyone know about how long it will take for my license to reciprocal to the state of CT once I receive it in RI? I would LOVE to hear from anyone that is near Ledyard CT.. and learn a bit of the job opportunities and other interests of that area! Thanks, Kate
