Thank you for the reply, I worked one night and its been good. I am still with preceptor even though she left me alone I felt confident taking care of all the 5 patients and catching up with my charting. The nurses kept asking me if i need help which made me more comfortable coming to work. I have a co worker who had bad preceptor who fell asleep and she wasn't there to help her or guide her.. I am back to school and I want start my NP Program next year if i like nights i'll stay on it.. if I don't like i have an opportunity to move to days.

Hello guys, I started working recently in med surg floor. I will be starting midnight shift in a week. I am nervous because I heard from other new nurses that midnight nurses aren't helpful, they don't want give fair assignment and they try to let you take more admission if there on charge... I am trying to go with positive attitude being new nurse and enjoying my new job. Any advise? Thank you guys!

Thank you so much for the advises!! Actually I am very kind, down to earth.. I baked for my previous jobs.. I was able to get along with everyone.. I am very hard worker and I do ask a lot questions!!!! I am planning to write all the questions I asked to learn... I am fast learner but I get paranoid if the job isn't done correctly haha!!!! i am excited for my new experience but nervous since I am tooo nice I feel sometimes it can work against me!! Thank you again :)

Hi guys, I just got job offer in med surg midnight shift. I am starting as a new Nurse.. any advise? My orientation is 12 weeks.. My unit max 5 patients and there is private room. Each hall has 10 patients. 2 Nursing assistants. I am anxious but excited to start my career.. I would love to transition ICU in near future.. Thank you!

Thanks for the reply can I start the orientation and my license isn't active in Michigan?? It will not harm me if I tell them that?

Hi guys, I am transferring my license to Michigan. I called since they took the money from my bank account. They told me 4-6 weeks from the time they receive the application. My question can I take them sooner than that? I have a job interview not sure what to tell them?

There's always hope to pass. Try to focus on your weak areas review contents then do questions and go take it again don't wait too long. Good luck!!! stay positive and motivated. You passed nursing school for a reason!

Hey! you need to register on review course as soon you complete it such as (NCBSN,Kaplan,or Hurst) you have to fax the completion letter of the course to MI board. Then, it takes 2-3 weeks to get another year to take the board. There's no need to wait till July.

Are you doing only questions or you will review content again? Good luck!

I hope you passed this time!! Try PVT I hope it will be a good pop op stay positive :) How did you prepare for the fifth time?

I am doing my best to stay motivated.. after long day of work sometimes I don't study but in my days off I study well.. I have been scoring high in my weakness. but I am reviewing contents while studying questions.. Thank you for asking. ( I do have both version the alternative format and Q&A)

Hey! I ordered the lippincott Q&A did you do the hard copy because I was able to access questions online. I also have a CD.

I couldn't message you private since you email is full.. First attempt 75, second 204, third 90, fourth 75 I have gotten above passing, near and below passing every time. Please email me private if you can. thank you.

Hi, Hurst it didn't help me when I took the board multiple times. My advise either Saunders book or lippinicott Q&A book has content with great questions. Don't spend your money on Review courses. There's also program has great high level questions such as U world and PDA book for prioritization. There's a phone app called nclex rn mastery app if you want do questions while your laying in bed.. Good luck! you can do it; don't let anyone to discourage you.

Focus on your weakness from CPR.. also if you can get lippinicott Q&A book you can do lots questions and read chapters since it contains contents. Do not buy any review course. Finish lippinocott while you do nclex rn mastery app then purchase 30 days course such as u world it contains great questions with good rationals. Remember to focus on your weakness (below passing) also review near passing too. Good luck!
