    Blinkie2003 posted a topic in General Students

    Blinkie2003 replied to 2016srnfcc's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I personally had a good amount of maternity. Since we all get different tests, it's hard to say what one should focus on in terms of a subject area. My advice is to get comfortable with SATA...

    Blinkie2003 replied to 2016srnfcc's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes! Uworld helped for sure. You won't see as good as questions on the NCLEX but Uworld helps make you feel more comfortable in both knowledge and strategy in my opinion. Redo all the questions you...

    Thank you!! I did a Kaplan 3 day live session (my school required it) and did most of their trainers and some of their qbank. Over the last 4 weeks I've been doing questions from Uworld. I didn't have...

  8. Just took the nclex, damn was it hard?

    Blinkie2003 replied to 2016srnfcc's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My friend gave me her login info for Uworld so I could atleast use it for the questions/rationales, but I don't have access to any of the self assessments and I can't track my "overall" status. I've...

    Blinkie2003 replied to 2016srnfcc's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you!! They always say "you'll never really feel ready" to take it, so I'm doing my best to remember that! I've never had test anxiety either so I hope it doesn't start now. However, I have a...

  11. Hate clinicals?

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Students

    Thank you for response Lane as well as suggestions. We do have pre and post conference, some more in depth than others. We also have certain expectations per speciality (formally written) and we do...

  12. Hate clinicals?

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Students

    I had no previous medical background prior to nursing school, so our first rotation (LTC facility, 3 weeks into program) was absolutely terrifying. After 4 weeks in LTC I did 7 weeks in the hospital...

  13. Hate clinicals?

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Students

    Our instructors mainly just let us go do our own thing as well, and if I need assistance with something I could go to them, but it's mostly like "go pick a patient, let me know who you pick, meet me...

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you PixieRN1! So far it seems either way it takes about the same amt of time/effort, although most recommend going the license by exam for NC route. Currently the NJ BON is a mess and it is...

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Nursing

    Thank for your reply! When I looked on the NC BON site, it does not specifically say that transcripts etc will need to be sent for endorsement. I notes the following: Name, location and year of...

  18. Applying for out of state license immediately upon graduation?

    Blinkie2003 replied to Blinkie2003's topic in General Nursing
