Hello, First of all, thanks to all those who are listening to me. Here's my story. I took the 1st NCLEX RN and failed at 265 question. The result came home and 1 category above passing, the rest near passing standard. How did i study for it? I read t...

Does anybody know how to obtain a Home Health Nurse certification? I want to be a home health nurse but have zero yrs of experience, I was told that I should get a home health certificate which makes me more qualify. Thanks, B.

I took my exam on Monday and got the result on Thursday so it was 3 days.

I failed at 265 then passed at 115. It's okay if you failed at 265 because next time you have a very good chance of passing. Don't beat yourself too much if you failed but you do have a 50/50 chance of passing. Good luck

Don't want to disappoint you but you would be a very lucky person if you could get a job in the Bay Area as a new grad much less be selective.

My friend and I have been looking for jobs in the Bay Area and it just hopeless. 300 applicants for 28 available new grad positions. That is ridiculous and insane. We are fortunate enough to be able to go far since we don't have a family. I'm curio...

My most regret on how to prepare for the NCLEX was studying the ATI. It is not for test prepartion, it includes all the stuff that you study in nursing school but it is NOT NCLEX preparation. My friends and I was doing the ATI and we all regret it f...

My test was 105-110 question with 6-7 SATA, 2 med calculation, 7-10 infection control. I just found out that i passed. I was truly 100% that i failed after I gone home and check the answers. Don't think of one way or the other until you receive your...

I PASSED. I overcome the CAT. I've crying since Monday the 15th after the exam. My friend was 100% sure that I passed. This is my 2nd attempt. Miracles do happened. Thank you, I will pray to all those who will take CAT Nclex.

Hello, I took my exam two days ago in CA, the 15th. My name is not listed. This is my 2nd exam, first was 265, now 108. Please continue to pray for me. I will keep you all in my prayers. Thanks, Becky.

Hello, Does it required to wear gloves while taking b/p of an AIDS or HIV patient?

To SilverDragon, How did you study for the 3rd exam? Do you know what you did wrong? Thanks, B.

Hello, Does anybody know how long would they posted your Ca NCLEX results? I took it on Monday d 15th, it's been two days and I don' see my name on the website. Does it mean that i was 95% failed? Thanks, Agonizing 2nd times nclex taker. B.

Hi Guys, I just took my 2nd exam yesterday, Sept 15th. I had 265 q on the first exam and got 105 questions this time. I had 6 SATA, 2 Med calculation. I went home to check the answers and found out that i missed so many questions. Knowing that I must...

Hi All, I just take my 2nd exam today with 108 questions. First was 265 questions but i wasn't studying really hard. This time i studies much harder. I had 6 sata, 6-8 infection control, 2 med cal. I don't feel confidence with my answers. Any body h...

I'm so depressed. Just take exam for the 2nd time. First failed at 265 questions. Today, i had 105 with 6-8 SATA question, bunch of infection control, priority. I don't feel good. I completely failed this time. I was not a subaverage student during n...

I say it is an ideal place for patients but I would never work there. It is way too crazy. Your friends also forgot to tell you that they are also discriminated.

I'm a 3/4 semester student and still don't know what I'm doing at clinical. During the first day of clinical of this semester, I couldn't even draw saline to flush the IV. I felt horrible and think that nursing is not right for me and should of sti...

It's not hard. Just time consuming. You spend 75% of your mind and time in nursing school. But i'm sure med school is tougher, just in a different way. Good luck.

What state are you planning to apply? Some school doesn't look into GPA if you already have >2.5. I was in the same situation. So i submitted the transcripts from Junior College schools which has all of the pre-reqs classes.

Stat is easy. We need it for the research classes. It is required for the BSN program since it covers more research. It does make sense though.

Golden West College in Orange County is accepting 96 students/semester, twice a year. I got in to the Sp 06 program with my first attempt. I applied to dozen of schools, this is the only one that i got in. If you have high GPA, it would be to your ...

You should consider the class hours, commuting, hospitals that the clinicals take plase as it relates to traffic, open lab hours.

I start my 1st semester for the ADN program on Jan 3Oth. I'm really nervous and excited. The school as normal program and weekend. Mine is the later one. I'll have Pharmacology lecture on Wednesday night. Nursing Process I on Thursday night and a...

Hi All, First of all thanks for the post. I will be attending 1st Semester ADN program at Golden West Collge Spring 06. I don't know much about the school other than it has extremely good pass rate board exam. Could anyone tell me what to expect of ...
