  1. Signing Off......

    Totally understand where you are coming from. However, I believe that people who have never been through nursing school themselves cannot fully understand how stressful nursing school actually is....
  2. Signing Off......

    Sorry I posted twice. I meant to respond to SeattleJess and somehow screwed it up, lol.
  3. Signing Off......

    I bet your nursing class will become your second family! That's what happened to us in nursing school! I was not one of the youngsters either (I just turned 39), but our entire class became very...
  4. Signing Off......

    I bet your nursing class will become your second family! That's what happened to us in nursing school! I was not one of the youngsters either (I just turned 39), but our entire class became very close...
  5. Signing Off......

    I graduated in May, and one of my closest friends in the nursing program was 60 when we graduated! And she passed NCLEX this summer, just a week after I did! Positive vibes to you, and may your dream...
  6. Which state board to register for

    I live in CA, graduated in May, and took NCLEX June 26. I found out two days later that I was an RN! The nursing board is not nearly as overwhelmed as it was for my friends who graduated in December....
  7. Kaplan Alternate Format Quiz- 25%!

    Do not freak out!! I got 34 percent on that test, and passed NCLEX on the first try in June. I thought the Kaplan SATA questions were much harder than the NCLEX ones! Good
  8. kaplan - worth it?

    I was fortunate in the fact that my college has some sort of grant through Kaplan, so students are able to take the course for free. I do feel it helped me, and I passed NCLEX-RN on the first try. The...
  9. I was typing my response when RunBabyRN was doing theirs. We were thinking the same thing!
  10. Congrats!! Of course it's not 100 percent, but some of us live in states that don't participate in quick results (like CA). I got the good pop-up and did pass, but had to wait for my license to be...
  11. When Should I Start Studying for NCLEX?

    Honestly, nursing school is stressful enough without studying for NCLEX at the same time! I graduated in May, and started studying for NCLEX right after. I tested June 26, and found out June 28 that I...
  12. Some of my classmates got their ATT really fast (myself included). At least seven of them are still waiting for the ATT. And of those who have tested, a few received license numbers within two days,...
  13. I am also in California. I took NCLEX-RN on June 26, 2014, and my license posted on the Breeze website the morning of June 28, 2014. So for me it wasn't even 48 hours later. I received my license in...
  14. NCLEX

    No clue. I was one of the lucky ones, I guess. The ones who haven't received theirs yet have lots of tickets on their record, and one had an arrest. So we think that is holding things
  15. NCLEX

    At one point, some of my classmates were considering testing for licensure in Oregon (we live just a couple hours from the border), but they were talked out of it. No matter which way you go, there...
  16. NCLEX

    And yes, go the BRN website, as it will give you all the info you need regarding fingerprints and such. It's a lot of little hoops to jump
  17. NCLEX

    So I live in California, and the wait just to take NCLEX was horrible for my friends who graduated in December. One friend of mine had to wait until MAY! I graduated in May, had my ATT by June 6, and...
  18. A true measure of a person is how they handle adversity. You never gave up, and that says tons about your character!!!! Major congrats, RN!!! :-) Now go out and
  19. Anyone have these feelings?!?!

    Yes, that is COMPLETELY normal!!! I took NCLEX on June 26. I walked in feeling confident, and walked out 90 questions later feeling awful!!!! So I did try the PVT, and got the "good pop-up." Less...
  20. testing this Thursday....so nervous!

    You guys will do great!! Positive thinking is a wonderful thing! I tested last Thursday, and my RN license posted to the CA BRN website on Saturday morning. I only studied about three weeks prior to...
  21. Anyone did Sample Test #4 in Kaplan's Qbank??

    I also took that alternative answer test, and got 17 correct (34 percent, LOL!!). But don't fear!! I took NCLEX on June 26, and my RN license posted on the CA BRN website this weekend!!! Plus, I felt...
  22. 2014 Pearson Vue Trick (PVT) Poll

    I got the "good" pop-up after my test on Thursday, and my license number posted to the CA BRN website this morning! So it was correct for me!!
  23. PVT trick on your phone?

    Oops, just saw that you were asking about iPhones. Mine is a Samsung Galaxy, but I don't see why it wouldn't work on an iPhone, too. Good
  24. PVT trick on your phone?

    Yes, I did!! I took my test this last Thursday (June 26), and went right out to my car to try the trick on my phone!! It worked! My RN license was on the CA BRN site this morning!!!
  25. Congratulations to you!!! I could have written almost the exact same story you did! I took NCLEX on June 26 and my license posted this morning. Now go celebrate!!!
