Hi all. I am a new nurse in a residency program. I am 5 weeks into it on a hectic floor. I am still with a preceptor for 10 more weeks so I know I have time to learn but I am starting to get worried that my time management skills won't develop fast e...

I feel like I get behind because of charting. I can do my med pass and assessments fine. Although I do feel I could speed that up. But then the charting puts me behind. And even at that I could probably handle it but then throw in admits and discharg...

I just finished the nclex with 75 questions and I feel like I knew nothing. I don't see how it is possible that I passed. The questions didn't seem like higher level questions at all. I got about 13 sata. I'm freaking out.

I checked breeze.

I passed!!!

Thanks everyone. 24 hours later and still the good pop up so continuing to pray and anxiously waiting official results.

I think what has me most concerned is that the questions I was getting didn't seem like higher level questions. They seemed like basic knowledge recall and that had me so worried. Some people say it's because Kaplan and uworld are so hard that these ...

Good luck! I really hope we pass as well. This is an awful waiting process. I'm so anxious and as I try to sleep all I can think of are all the questions that seemed like such low level questions and then I feel there is no way I could have passed. J...

Thank you for responding. I know everyone walks out feeling like they failed but I just feel like "no one could feel like they knew less than me in there" I really studied and prepped too. I did ALL of Kaplan, Hurst, and some of Uworld. But I just fe...

Hi all! I am so extremely nervous to test in 5 days. I am doing my best to do questions to keep my exposure high until then and plan on taking the day before off. The morning of I think I will just do a few questions to get my brain in the zone. I am...

Hi everyone, I have two questions. First, I take the NCLEX in a week and a half and I am located in CA which does not have the option for quick results. So I would like to try the pop up (although I've heard it is not always accurate) My question is...

I am taking it in 2 weeks. I am very nervous. I am having a lot of trouble being confident.

As we all know, your nursing school friends can become family throughout the roller coaster ride together. In the spirit of Christmas (and just because I don't know what I'd do without those few nursing friends who are always there) I wanted to make ...

Yes just like that! That would be so helpful thank you!

Nursing student here! Just wondering what those of you with more clinical experience prefer for your watch. Wrist watch? Lapel watch? Military time on it? Glow in the dark? Etc... And since scrubs aren't always the most stylish things in the world, a...

I was just thinking of a new name as you posted. Thank you :)

Hi all! My name is Krystal. I am currently in my first semester of nursing school. Officially 1 month in! It is the best and most challenging ride of my life but I love every minute of it. We just took our first theory test this week. If I had to cho...

Thank you! I will look for that book immediately. I can't wait to practice and feel myself improving :)

My first day was overwhelming. Actually the first couple weeks were overwhelming. They throw you right in and, in my opinion, they purposely push you to your breaking point every day. They are trying to make us stronger. Challenge accepted. Ironicall...

Failing. Plain and simple. I am afraid of failing my family. Of failing as a wife because I am so busy with school. Of failing as a student. Of failing myself. But I wake up every day, put it out of my mind, and say "it's do or die". I will not give ...

Hi everyone, New nursing student and new to allnurses.com! I am having trouble with palpating the brachial pulse and hearing the pulse while taking BP. I practiced on my husband and it seemed he was easy to feel and hear but when practicing on the g...
