    ATI Predictor and UWorld Self Assess

    KrCmommy522 replied to nursing808's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    For the ATI predictor, I would focus on doing ATI practice test. When you do the practice comprehensive exams, the areas where you are weak, do practice tests in those areas (find the subject area and...

    KrCmommy522 replied to chavy21's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    When we did our ATI predictor, it seemed like everyone in my class got subjects they felt they struggled in. It could of just been that we all felt that way because those are the questions we noticed...

    How would you like 3 consecutive months off a year?

    KrCmommy522 posted a topic in Nursing News

    I read an article "Children's Hospital Offers Nurses Summers Off." I figured it'd be a good discussion for here and would love to hear everyone's thoughts on this!! The article states, "Having a full...

    How would you like 3 consecutive months off a year?

    KrCmommy522 replied to KrCmommy522's topic in Nursing News

    Yes! If they said that they were doing this in the peds unit because of low census and giving people the chance to stay in their unit but work in the summer somewhere else, I would be all for that!...

    How would you like 3 consecutive months off a year?

    KrCmommy522 replied to KrCmommy522's topic in Nursing News

    That was my thinking too! I am a single mother and I couldn't take 3 months off. They offer a stipend but that's to pay for the insurance, so I'm sure it wouldn't leave much, if anything, left over....

    Federal Loans question

    KrCmommy522 replied to Arafelle's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    That's how it was at my school too. We'd fill out a form saying if we wanted full or partial and how much if it was partial. If I remember correctly, we filled it out at the beginning of the year and...

    Comments about LaCharity Reviewer

    KrCmommy522 replied to ScaredRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I didn't have this issue with LaCharity. What do you mean the answers have mistakes? What do you mean the explanation of the answer doesn't go with the answer given? Can you give an example? I know...

    Federal Loans question

    KrCmommy522 replied to Arafelle's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Agreed! Preferably, you want to get all that paperwork out the way BEFORE starting. At my school, right before I graduated (and no longer was receiving loans), they came up with a system where you...

    Advice for Nursing Student?

    KrCmommy522 replied to obri's topic in General Students

    You're in your first semester. I HATED nursing school. Honestly, I HATED clinicals. I was a busy single mom of 2. I had to work hard to work my schedule, so I could get my older kid to school and...

    Dismissal from nursing school without failing any course

    KrCmommy522 replied to Beebee18's topic in General Students

    I'm not a moderator, but I feel it should be said - this thread has gotten way off topic. It's become about racism and whether or not the OP experienced it, what others have gone through, etc.. The OP...

    Too ugly to be a nurse..?!?

    KrCmommy522 replied to RandomNurse2b1's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't read through all the comments, and I hate posting without reading them all because I feel I might miss something and say something wrong because I didn't, but you've gotten so much support,...

    Nurse dating former patient?

    KrCmommy522 replied to mzsuccess's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    When I first read the OP, I agreed with other posters - depends on the relationship, how long you cared for the pt, how long ago it was, etc. as others said. Then, the OP said that she said no, but...

    Pearson Vue Trick "Facts"

    KrCmommy522 replied to HopefulGradNurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I don't understand how when you do the PVT you could put in an INCORRECT CVC or expiration date, I don't get how that wouldn't make the card invalid. I would think that it would not work because you...

    KrCmommy522 replied to RandomNurse2b1's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Soooo, true!! As I just said in my post, what is "normal" for one is NOT "normal" for all. A person that has a HR of 42 - is that "normal?" Well, is the person a trained athlete? If so, then yes, it's...

    What can I do besides nursing?

    KrCmommy522 replied to Raven43's topic in General Nursing

    But you have NOT been answering any question. You seemed to be completely avoiding the questions related to whether or not you had a lawyer or spoke to one (first you say you called "762 lawyers"...

    You can do a search on the PVT and you will find MILLIONS of posts on the good pop up and passing, good pop up and failing, bad pop up and passing, bad pop up and failing. Unfortunately, many say it...

    KrCmommy522 replied to RandomNurse2b1's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Yep! I think that's what you're instructor is probably looking for. But, of course, it could also be clothing or temp outside or in the building. So, you can also include that. But, my best guess...
