For fundamentals, it takes a while to understand the concept. I understand that it might be your first time being exposed to this type of thinking. This was my way of studying. Depending on how well your teacher teaches I would record the professor, ...

@Abaynestone I will PM you through allnurses

@tduncan083 I will PM you through the allnurses forum

Thank you so much @dbrenda1510 I am going to try and apply to the Navy now. I will meet a recruiter soon to see whether it would be best for me to apply as a New Grad RN or obtain experience first. Is it possible for me contact your friend from the n...

Thank you so much @Chiandre I needed to read this. I am right now looking up local nursing chapters to join as well. I will do what I can to network =) once again THANK YOU!

Hello readers, I am posting this because I wan to hear some friendly opinions about where to go from here. Also I don't want to sound desperate but lately I am tired of hearing "the position was given to someone else." I volunteered at a hospital, a...

It could most likely be test anxiety. Do you second guess too much when you approach an answer to a question? When I was taking kaplan I had a summary of my cumulative performance. I had a habit of second guessing too much and decided to read the qu...

Hello readers! I want to add some background first in order to clarify my question. I recently graduated and passed my NCLEX. I actually applied to one military branch during Nursing School. Unfortunately, I did not get in. Now I want to see if I can...

@jfratian thank you so much for the detailed information! It is gonna be hard finding a job I understand that, but maybe doing these certifications before I get a job can impress a civilian hospital and after a year or two I will apply to the Navy

@biglala good luck!!!! I think there are Qbanks or copies of these questions in google (at least old ones) I lost the link but I think if you google "Kaplan Qbanks" or something along those lines you might find it.

@hmahdoui I will PM you through allnurses the study calendar

yup that's definitely true. I know what you mean, I also realize I spend an hour daydreaming when I should be studying. I actually put my phone on airplane mode find a spot where no one recognizes (In a park or a starbucks somewhere or a public libra...

@biglala If you can afford kaplan then go head and do those questions. I think there are Kaplan discounts online. I applied to kaplan in the first place because my school had a contract with them. Personally I loved the kaplan questions. They were v...

When I was in Nursing school I actually made a study calendar and binded my chapters from books based on the syllabus. I also used youtube and Saunders. I also did a ton of practice questions based on a specific topic in my class.

Thank you :)

Thank you!

Could you describe your study routine for me?

That is very strange, I never heard of this either. Is there more to the story?

Hello everyone! I recently graduated and I also passed my NCLEX. I applied to about 3 positions in NYC during my last year of nursing school, but I really dislike the fact that I spend most of my time applying only to find out that a position was giv...

I use a planner I bought in staples. I also use my google planner. In addition I also binded my chapters following the class syllabus. I went to staples to bind together my chapters. Ever since I binded my chapters my grades dusting my last two seme...

Keep in mind the Pearson trick actually changed. You have to add your credit card info then press submit. If you get a red triangle and it says "you cannot schedule your exam at this time" or something like that then you passed. However if your credi...

And by this I mean, certifications I should obtain once I have a job etc.?

Thank you all for the replies. I am going to speak to a recruiter today. I think for now I will focus on finding experience within a civilian hospital. However, I heard it can be more competitive, do any of you have any advice on how my experiences c...

@J_lynn34 You're welcome. if you have the Saunders book you should try looking at Suzanne's plan for NCLEX! I feel like the key into studying for the exam is to really practice questions and reviewing the rationales. You should also definitely look ...
