1. Took the NCLEX today 06/20/2018 -UWorld exclusively as studying tool

   sadieb95 replied to sadieb95's topic in NCLEX

   In my experience, if you're sitting at or above the averages when taking the practice tests you're in good shape to sit for the NCLEX. However, there were several practice exams that I scored below average on! My average in the Qbank was around 62%, ...

   I've heard great things about Hurst. One of my friends from school used it exclusively to prep for the NCLEX, and she passed with 75 questions. Best of luck to you!

   I second this! I only used the tutor mode. It's more about learning how to answer the questions than working well with the timer, since you're given 6 hours to complete the NCLEX. Good luck and keep us posted!

   Sure! On the first assessment I scored a 64% which put me in the 77th percentile. Second one I got a 66% which put me in the 84th percentile. I think if you're able to score a "high chance" on the UWorld assessments then you're in good shape. Focus m...

   sadieb95 posted a topic in NCLEX

   Hi everybody! I just wanted to share my experience with the NCLEX and hopefully offer some reassurance to people who are in or about to be in this position. I took the NCLEX today, shut off at 75 questions, and had an active license on my state's BON...

6. Second semester jitters/anxiety

   sadieb95 posted a topic in General Students

   Hello everybody, hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. I'm hoping to get some advice/encouragement for my second semester of nursing school. I am in a 2 year ADN program that is notoriously very rigorous in my state. I feel very lucky and prou...

7. A&P 2 Harder than A&P 1?

   sadieb95 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I certainly thought A&P 2 was more challenging. I took it with a different teacher, and had to learn a new teaching/testing method which made it more challenging. I managed to earn a grade only 2 points lower than A&P 1, which I was happy wit...

8. Feeling completely overwhelmed

   sadieb95 posted a topic in General Students

   Hey everybody, I'm looking for some advice. Or reassurance, I'm not completely sure. I got accepted into a very rigorous 2 year ADN program, and was absolutely ecstatic to start. I had my clinical orientation in June, and was definitely feeling the p...

9. Are there any gay nurses here?

   sadieb95 replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

   I am still a student, so I apologize if my post seems out of place amongst the rest; I just had to interject. I am gay, and everything regarding the Orlando shooting has hit me in ways I never thought possible. No amount of schooling or life experien...

10. Studying for the TEAS test?(math portion)

    sadieb95 replied to india.thomas1's topic in TEAS

    Get the ATI testing manual and then look up "Keshwani Prep" on Youtube. He teaches the entire math section of the manual page by page and gives you tricks to better understand everything. Not to mention he's very funny! I hate math and the math secti...

11. TEAS V - How to tackle?

    sadieb95 replied to Miewn's topic in TEAS

    There weren't too many chem questions on the exam. However I will say that it can be kind of difficult to teach yourself the basics if you haven't taken the class in awhile/at all. I don't think it's necessary to finish the class first in order to do...

    LOL the teas will do that to ya! Good luck studying, I promise your sanity will come back once the exam is over yes, anyone who comes across this thread: PLEASE do yourself the ultimate favor and look at Keshwani's vids. You will genuinely learn to ...

14. Took the TEAS V

    sadieb95 replied to sadieb95's topic in TEAS

    I didn't find that one either, but I highly recommend checking this one out if you haven't already. It is by far the most in depth post I've found regarding the TEAS, and it helped a lot! https://allnurses.com/teas-exam-help/how-i-passed-804222.html...

15. Took the TEAS V

    sadieb95 replied to sadieb95's topic in TEAS

    I personally had no questions regarding tissues or nervous system, though I really wish I had! I have to say, there is very minimal human body science on the exam, which is a huge bummer when that's what you know well lol. I had a question regarding ...
