I would also have to say NCSBN! The questions and the rationales helped me out a lot and I noticed that NCLEX asked me some things that NCSBN had and Hurst didn't. Good luck!

18 weeks in the OR with classroom/simulation/lab. This is a Versant program.

I love your advice bombae09! I will be starting my OR orientation 2 weeks from now and I would love to know what books, if you used any, that helped you with the OR?

Highly recommend doing Lacharity! It's what saved me from all the delegating and prioritizing questions on the NCLEX.

You're welcome! The questions are the very end of the section, where it lists 1-10, 11-20, 30-40, 40-50 and pharmacology questions are 50-55.

I believe that Hurst is the best for content. Marly explains it in a way that makes you remember the content. I also used PDA, which is very very important. I purchased the 3 week course NCSBN and just did the questions (They have about 1100 question...

Congratulations everyone!! :)

Same! Quick results shows I passed ? You can do it JustBreathe! Remember to stay calm and use that test taking skill. Good luck!

Thank you!

So took it this morning at 0830.. finished by 0930. Ended with 75 questions (I was honestly hoping for more to increase my chances; felt that I did horrible and didn't know most of the content there). 30 min after taking the test.. did the pearsonvue...

Will be testing this Monday! Prayers for everyone here. We shall pass this!

Hi Ash! I will also be taking the NCLEX tomorrow early morning. I completely understand how you feel. Right now I just want to get this exam over with and I even gave myself a migraine yesterday night because of this. Here's to hoping and praying th...

Hi everyone, I've been watching videos from Evolve and Youtube for the Foley Catheter insertion and practicing in front of my classmates. I have one question about the sterile technique part that I'm not sure about. The videos didn't clear up my conf...

I accepted an offer for the OR position in FW. For those still waiting, don't give up! I honestly did not think I was going to get this due to me being late to the interview and bungling some answers so it was definitely an unexpected call I answered...

Definitely know how you feel Briterz! I practice and practice but when it's the actual interview, I can't string together a quality sentence. Sigh.

Checking for an update :) Has anyone gotten an interview for Parkland, THR, Baylor, UT Southwestern or Methodist?

Hi What Nurse? ! Welcome. From what I have heard and seen, the trend is now going towards BSN or above. I'm graduating in May 2014 and a lot of the hospitals that are hiring require a BSN or if you currently have an ADN, they require you to obtain a...

SSRM.. from what I remember in mine, I had routing to folder right after I applied. So routing to folder went before considering. I don't know if this is the same for everyone or not but from my experience, that's the order it went. I checked every d...

Hi there! Under Review is better. For THR, I believe it goes like this.. Considering > Application under review > Forwarded to hiring manager > Interview Scheduled Good luck!

I love your post!! Definitely true, especially the part of the 'You graduated valedictorian. .. When did you become so dumb'.

Started Prereqs age 18. Got accepted to the BSN program age 20. I am now 22 with one more semester left. Will be 22 or 23 when I graduate, depending when graduation will be. Ackkk, time flew by fast! Excited, nervous and definitely scared!

Hi everyone, I'm starting my Senior year and I'll have Critical Care/OB/Peds. By the end of school, my main interest is to work in ER or Peds. My main concern is that the stethoscope I have now (Sprague $20), I can't really hear lung sounds and heart...
