    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

    Wondering if anyone on here has had any experience with the Nurse Corps scholarship. To me it seems too good to be true... Offering full tuition reimbursement, as well as all related fees, books, and...

    mirandaaa posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Welp, after a very long, hard, and stressful few years, I completed nursing school and graduated last month. I take my NCLEX on Wednesday. I've been studying like crazy and can only hope that I have...

  3. Taking My NCLEX Wednesday

  4. Pass/Fail With 75 Poll

    mirandaaa posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Hey all, I know there's an old poll with the same question, but it's several years old now and the NCLEX has changed over the years. I was wondering if recently-taken NCLEX-RN test-takers whose test...

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Oh my gosh hi! I remember you too! I used to run rampant constantly on this site but got so busy with school that I cut back. Test shut off at 75 questions. Pretty sure I felt like dying but I tried...

    mirandaaa replied to mirandaaa's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Test shut off at 75 questions and I felt like I was gonna puke. Did the not-totally-reliable-but-peace-of-mind Pearson Vue trick and that looks good so far. Just gotta wait for the results on the BON...

  10. Let's Be Honest...

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Nursing

    How hard is it to get an RN position in Hawaii (specifically O'ahu) if you're coming from out of state as a new grad? Would letters of recommendation help? I ask because I'm graduating nursing school...

  11. Nursing School Update Pt. 4

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

  13. Was offered a CNA position in ICU but may not work around school. Advice please?

    mirandaaa replied to michigan94's topic in General Nursing

    My advice: Stick out your current job until you're done with school or until you can find something more accommodating to your school schedule. I know what it's like to dislike your current job, but...

  14. Nursing School Update Pt. 3

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

    First semester is halfway through (thank God). I got a job as a PCA on a med/tele unit; it IS possible to do well in school and work (although I am negative sleep sometimes). The guy I'm seeing is...

  15. What I've Learned In Nursing School So Far

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

    I've learned that I never have time for AN anymore! Friendships suffer a bit and sometimes those friends can't stick around. Drinking 3 margaritas the night before Pharmacology and Fundamentals day...

    mirandaaa posted a topic in General Students

    You cheat, you die. Basically don't post anything on social media. Ever. Pharmacology is going to be a nightmare. The manikins are freakin' astounding. My instructors are awesome. They keep the...

  17. CNA Agencies?

    mirandaaa posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Hi All, I start the RN program on Monday and I'm not going to be able to keep my office job. I have enough money saved on top of receiving grants that I'm not too concerned with finding a new job...

  18. lost my first CNA job because of age

    mirandaaa replied to YoungMaleCNA's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Try doing home health! I think a big reason why they denied you is because you have to be 18+ to use the mechanical lifts and some other equipment. It would be too difficult to have someone on the...

  19. Help! How do I study these gigantic chapters!?

    mirandaaa replied to Godizmydad21's topic in General Nursing

    I feel that was rather rudely stated and a little unnecessary. I'm sure when you started nursing school and started getting your books, you also were amazed at the sheer size and weight of them. OP...

    mirandaaa replied to icuRNmaggie's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  23. 12 hour shifts question

    mirandaaa replied to achung412's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    That would still equal 45, not 42

  24. 12 hour shifts question

    mirandaaa replied to achung412's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    mirandaaa replied to BritBSNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I still think one of the worst ones is having an RN saying that an LPN "isn't a
