@Andrea Nunez hi ! I have been in the program for about 3 years I have Another two to go ! I am in the DNP FNP program and I think that this is a challenging but doable program I am working postpartum full time right now. I do not recommend going into school right away after BSN. I would def see what you like in regards to nursing and then go back to school for it! I also had the same idea as you in regards to going back to school right after my BSN and am so happy I didn't until I had 3 years of nursing experience where I bounced around the or med surge and postpartum I really understand myself more now as well as my likes and dislikes for my future career which made the decision process for my future easier and that really impacted my decision on what I wanted to go back to school for. Nursing leads down Many avenues ! With that being said I wish you luck in all your endeavors ! Much love, jess

I just got accepted ! See you guys there ! (:

Hey guys, I applied in October for Spring 2019 FNP program ! I haven't heard back. Best of Luck (:

Thank you! Stay strong and never give up (:

Thanks for the reply !!!! I am super relieved I'm done with nclex !!! and super excited to start a position as an rn! i graduated from trinitas school of nursing and I thought the exam was fair not hard not easy. But I'm going to tell you know that all the answers seemed so similar it was really hard to pick the BEST answer. I would quickly eliminate 2 answers and was always left with the other two to choose from. I used the rutgers review course for the in person classes that my school offered for free after finishing the program and I also used the in demand kaplan course. In my opinion they both high lighted nclex well. All the the info they stressed were on the exam and I would recommend both. ( they are both a drag though... Just gotta stick to them ) if I had to choose I would say kaplan on demand is better because they are more organized and stressed more material that was presented on my nclex.

So I took the nclex a week ago. But I want to start off with the beginning so... I was flipping out with anxiety a week prior. I knew i needed to stop studying right then and there... So I did. When the nclex came I was surprisingly calm. I went in thinking "I'm the boss I write my own future not this exam." So I start the exam and I hit 75 questions and I become dissappointed as I pass it... Now I'm at 120 questions which is the average questions someone takes on the nclex and I become nervous! But all I keep telling myself is "I'm still in the running if thy keep giving me questions. It just means I need two correct questions in a row Im boarder line Ashely just prove yourself" in the meantime I'm the last one in the room taking the nclex with my 2 breaks taken. My confidence is starting to run low and I'm starting to get frustrated with this said I just chant to myself .... "I'm still in the running if thy keep giving me questions. It just means I need two correct questions in a row Im boarder line Ashely just prove yourself" omg im at 210 questions with only 30 mins remaining and I've been here taking this exam by myself for last 2 1/2 hrs. How is this possible I'm going to run out of time . Omg I'm done I fail is what is running threw my mind. I tell myself no way I've come to far im a b b+ Student this can't be right just keep strong. And the chant in my mind becomes stronger. "I'm still in the running if thy keep giving me questions. It just means I need two correct questions in a row Im boarder line Ashely just prove yourself" omg omg omg five mins and I'm at 241 ? This is terrible ! Only 2% run out of time how can I be in this percentage ????? Omg I have no chance ! No Ashely just go go go and I finish with 245 questions and run out of time. The the rule with nclex if you run out of time is that the last 60 questions are counted if you go below the average once you fail. Omg i failed is what's going threw my mind . After 5 hours has passed by I gain the courage to do the Pearson vue trick and I get the good pop up !!!! good news yessssss! So 2 days later I pay the 8 dollars guess what ... Oficially RN ! Dont give up... I created an account just to tell you guys this story. I have used this website religiously through out pre nursing school, nursing school, and nclex. And now I thought it was my time to write a post, since there was none like this out there. Stay strong and carry on!
