   Do you think being a medic prior to taking the test helped you at all?

   Murse2954 replied to sportsmed's topic in General Nursing

   Yes you do need to be sponsored by a MICU project in NJ. As far as courses I think they are individualized per the project. I know mine has you do in house training, ride time, intubations etc. I think you need 1 yr ED or Crit care at least along ...

   My sister in law is a traditional student. Great school but grading is tough almost like ivy league grading system. Be prepared to work your butt off studying. Congrats best of luck.

5. What was nursing school like for you?

   Murse2954 replied to ANMpreN's topic in General Nursing

   I think the most challenging part of nursing school was the "fluff" pre-reqs themselves. For me they were what drove my gpa down. I showed up thinking I could get an easy A and of course I got a B lol. As far as nursing curricula I did study a dece...

6. Rn Nclex

   Murse2954 replied to 2bRnluv4lif's topic in NCLEX

   But technically even if you get all 75 questions wrong you can still eventually dig yourself out. Which is why I don't think it should shut off at 75 for a fail...highly unlikely but possible.

9. Kaplan harder than NCLEX-RN, Passed with 75Q & Low Kaplan Scores

   Murse2954 replied to WunMsJayLPNtoRN's topic in NCLEX

   I do have to agree that q bank is harder than the nclex. As for the Kaplan class itself if you are an average to above average test taker I would save your money I did not use the descision tree at all.. IMO I would just buy the q bank I think it hel...

    Murse2954 replied to Kait08's topic in NCLEX
