  1. anxiety testing in 4 days

    NICUismylife replied to hopeless1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes, hgb 6 is priority. Sorry. It might have been a trial question though. How many questions did you get

  2. Nclex RN january 2017

    NICUismylife replied to shesanurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Shut off after 75Q, 21 SATA, 1 drag-and-drop, lots of priority questions. It was harder than I expected, for sure. But I got the good pop up on the PVT! Pretty sure I passed!!! *fingers

    NICUismylife replied to shesanurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Good luck to everyone! I'm testing today at 8am, but I'm on Pacific time. Will let you all know how it

  4. CA BRN Grad to NCLEX timeline/prep

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You'll probably have it within 2 weeks! Watch Breeze and when your submission date changes, then you'll get your ATT 2 days later! Good

  5. CA BRN Grad to NCLEX timeline/prep

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It seems like people are waiting 1-2 weeks after transcripts are submitted. So, it seems to depend more on transcripts than anything else (assuming your application was submitted and complete). Do you...

  6. Uworld vs Saunders rationales

    NICUismylife replied to SCM01's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is also what I was taught. Consistent intake. If they eat a salad every day, continue to do so. Don't discourage K, just stay consistent with the

    Congrats

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The ATT comes directly from Pearson Vue by email, so be sure that you are registered and have paid them or you won't get your ATT until you do. My "submission" date on Breeze changed 2 days prior to...

    NICUismylife replied to shesanurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hi ladies! I've been following this thread all month while I await my ATT (I'm in CA--it takes forever), finally got my ATT and am testing this Friday the 27th!!! I graduated beginning of Dec and have...

  10. anxiety testing in 4 days

    NICUismylife replied to hopeless1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just wanted to say good luck! I'm also testing on Friday (for the first time). It sounds like you've remediated appropriately since your last test, so hopefully you will pass with flying colors this...

  11. NCLEX practice question help

    NICUismylife replied to honeybee_23's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Get out your drug book, or even google it, and look up why morphine is given for angina (hint: it's not just for pain relief). My clinical instructor made me do this and it helped solidify the...

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Got my ATT last night at 10pm! Testing

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    YAY! Congrats! Was Feb. 3rd the first available date, or just what was most convenient for you? I'm hoping to test as soon as I get my ATT, like, the next day if available,

  14. Hardest class in nursing school

    NICUismylife replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    My answers are different for each question you ask. The class that "weeds people out" aside from pre-reqs (which obviously weed the most people out): Pharmacology. More people failed out of...

  15. How does your school work?

    NICUismylife replied to jujubeeaddict1's topic in General Students

    ICU for only 1 day? That seems like a pretty massive disservice to the students. I had 16 days in ICU and it was the most fascinating rotation and I learned so much every single day. That makes me...

  16. How does your school work?

    NICUismylife replied to jujubeeaddict1's topic in General Students

    Ours were separated into different classes, but as a pp mentioned, we all were required to take them in the same order. 1st semester: Fundamentals, Med-surg, Pharm, clinical on med-surg floor 2nd...

  17. Job with summers off

    NICUismylife replied to heather42r's topic in General Nursing

    Travel nursing? Then you could pick up a travel assignment near your parents during the summer and they could watch your daughter while you

    NICUismylife replied to Clueless91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This gives me hope!

  19. How many credits is too much

    NICUismylife replied to PrinPringles's topic in General Students

    If you have no job and no kids, then I think it's doable if you really buckle down. 2 sciences will be tough together, so if you do have kids or a job, then I think you might compromise your GPA with...

  20. Joint commission and PICU

    NICUismylife replied to EricaAngela90's topic in PICU, Pediatric

    This is exactly what I was going to

  21. NCLEX HELP PLEASE- Is the priority action the same as the first action?

    NICUismylife replied to maryam1234's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  24. Starting clinicals - Question

    NICUismylife replied to Philly85's topic in General Students

    It depends on the school. For med-surg, we were always assigned a patient, and we did total care for that patient during the shift under the supervision of our instructors, including speaking with the...
