I'm looking for some advice and any/all help would be appreciated. I've completed my year of med/surg and although I have really grown to love my floor and the nurses/staff I work with, I know that my heart really is in the 'code' environment and if ...

I applied to Delhi assuming they were accredited but they are not. No harm, no foul if I choose not to go since I haven't committed to anything yet but just wondering what the pros/cons are to an accredited vs. a non accredited program for an Rn - B...

I just applied last week and hoping to start this summer or fall. I am a little bummed to have just realized they are not accredited and wondering if it's really worth it at this point to try to find another school. In the grand scheme, what is the...

Can you link me to some sites that have these types of thingamajigs. I saw a nurse with one on my floor the other day and it looks like it will help with my pocket situation... not enough space for the things I like to keep on me (tons of flushes, a...

I'm sure I'm not the first nor the last and I'm sure there are ppl that are probably tired of 1st years complaining... and in the same breath, im SURE nursing was probably 10x's harder for some senior nurses back in the day. AND I know there are ppl...

I think I found it:) http://shop.advanceweb.com/professional-accessories/pens-organizers/6324-prestige-medical-nylon-organizer.aspx

WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this was an awesome post! i agree; i put things in gods hands and just lift up my cares to him; when i do, it's like they aren't even a thought in my mind because i know he will take care of there rest... its not alwasy easy to remember that; to sta...

WOOHOO!!!! I knew you did it too hun! When you messaged me that you had priority questions towards the end I just knew! YAY!!! I tried to message you back but my kiddos were distracting me:p YAYAYAYAY WTG!!!!

my take on the nclex; totally about critical thinking. You have to know your disease processes but also know how to decipher what they are asking you. Kaplan totally prepared me for that; how to read the question, find out the topic then read the a...

hmmm, maybe it's different here in ny. A coworker of mine was saying her sister had to wait months and was a wreck about it; no one could even ask her about the test without her freaking out over not knowing.

oh gosh hun, I have no idea. I'm so sorry you have to wait so long. I just found out that back in the day they had to do the tests on paper and wait MONTHS for the results, like 4-6 months. I would be a wreck. thats such a long time to wait meanwh...

I'm sorry:( Not sure how I can help but I can try! How many questions did you get and how did you prepare for the test? Do you know how long it will take to get the results in paper... I believe I read somewhere that they will let you know what a...

I know this is an old thread but im shocked so many ppl were disappointed. I found kaplan very useful especially the decision tree; I had to use it a few times on the NCLEX. However, I didn't find the nclex questions as hard as kaplan as far as leve...

oh and a big shout out to the G-O-D! To god be all the glory. Thank you for the knowledge, wisdom and understanding. The patience to study with three children, the support of my loving family with both helping with the kids and also staying in con...

It's official guys! I'm finally a full fledged RN!!!! I got my results yesterday right after getting report and it took a good hour to come down from the excitement to get back to work:p YAY!!!! Finally DONE! phew. Thank you lord! Richo let us kn...

yay!!! congrats hun!!!

woooohoooooooo!!!!! congrats!!!!!!!!

I too dont' think sleep will come easy tonight and I have to work tomorrow and thurs... im so afraid that the results will come in badly and I can just see my ADN coming towards with a slip of paper saying I can't work here anymore and wonder if they...

I'm sorry you had to have such a tough go and I too hope we both don't have to see that place again!!! I hope you get some rest tonight! Sending tons of prayers and positive thoughts. I also felt like it was harder in the beginning then got easier a...

Hey you! I've been thinking of ya all day and waiting to hear. I'm going to stay strong for both of us since I was a mess earlier... im feeling a lil better now but can relate 100% in your post; it's the hardest test I ever took. I got 3 SATA's and...

Richo... how did it go?!?!?!?

I'm rattling my brain recalling questions and checking if I got them right or wrong, I'm up to about 5 wrong an ten right:/ I did get one drag and drop and it was too easy which makes me a lil worried (very low level):/ a few friends of mine are say...

I think and could be wrong, that I read it to be take gloves off, then gown, then wash hand and remove mask then goggles.

I found the questions on the nclex most similar to kaplan. but there were a ton of meds on my exam that I wasn't prepared for:( best of luck to you either way!
