I love watching your posts! I am a 69 year old retired oncology nurse. I often ask myself why I chose nursing. I really, after all these years don’t have an answer. I retired 10 months ago. What I can tell you is I had an amazing career because of my patients. Good luck on the NCLEX. You will be a great addition to the profession!🎉
The REALEST nursing student vlog I’ve ever watched. No hate but most of nursing student/nurse vloggerd out there tend focus on the “aesthetic” of nursing school and eliminate the hardships. I admire you for sharing your real experiences and failures, which I think are as important to share as the successes. Subscribed!
I also failed my first NCLEX and passed my second attempt. My Cardiac ICU manager did not care at all and told me to just email her once I get my license lol. And the performance part is so true. There are a few new grads like me in my unit who did well in nursing school but that did not make them great nursing right off the bat! We are all beginner nurses regardleds of how we performed in nursing school and how many attempts we had on the NCLEX
Some good testing anxiety tips for you that help me are: 1)Read questions before reading the paragraph or data to help you answer questions. 2)Remember don't stay on questions for about 30minutes Pick the best answer , don't leave the question blank because you can get some points to pass the exam . Sometimes the answers are not relevant to the data and evidence you already have. Everything is connected, just like the water cycle they connect and grow to help animals and humans. To answer the question use whatever that is relevant to questions and the data you know . I still second guess myself , indeed, it's the testing anxiety, it is a thing. We all have learning disabilities, however we still can achieve great things, we should move forward not still , it's I know. In the end, it will be worth it.🎉 Read and observe key words , it may make you realize or remember something relevant to questions. It's worth reading because it's worth the time to gather data or details for your questions. Did you know?when I would take the star test they would give us peppermints Candy, I asked ,why ? they said ,it makes your brain work more and faster. Remember to get sleep and get a quick breakfast. And be 30 minutes before the test Time to review your notes to get a refresher. Do some affirmations and breathing techniques, they helped me when panicking before the test.
I love how good your routine is. You seem to have a very healthy and happy routine. Something that you're willing to commit to. You are one of my influencers that will encourage me to do well in school. As an Asian, yes, make sure you study lots. It's okay if you failed, you can try again! Try harder, I believe in you! I know it was 10 days ago, but I hope your career as a nurse into a success
As a radiation therapy student, I struggled SO MUCH! Getting through it and getting my certification was so worth it. I wish you well, I retired from a career in medicine that I loved and if I was able, I would do it again. Glad you made it!
My favourite creator ❤️ Kai, I love your videos, they are so calming to watch, you are the best. I’m sure, you will pass your exam and become a real professional ❤️❤️❤️
I am an introverted person but I am not afraid of making friends in nursing school! But I totally can relate when it comes to clinical, I am shy and not very talkative to my patient. When I greet my patients, I literally say the same thing and the same tone as you. 😥😥😥😥😥
Love watching your content I'm 20, moved into my apartment with my roommate last year. Love the independence I feel. I'll be attending nursing school this April. We got this !
just some advice. the state board should have sent you the results of your exam, look at the statistics which subject you have not done well. Focus on those of your study. Don't over think the questions. Most student nurse get the answer wrong because they doubt their first answer. When you are doing your practice questions. Do it on one sitting and gradually increase the number of questions you like 60, 120, 150, 200...At the end of practice exam, read the rationale for each questions you got it wrong and the questions you are in doubt with. Good luck on your next NGN-NCLEX! You got this.
I watched the whole video even though I wanna become a doctor hahaha, btw I love ur channel u give me motivation to study more in high school And I'm proud of you because you didn't give up, believing that you will become the best nurse, so keep going!!
Kai, you are clever, smart and creative. Do not psych yourself into thinking any less of yourself! Aim higher. Also, people that do well on standardized tests somehow figure out how the tester or test wants you to answer. You need to figure out what and how the test wants you to answer. Btw, that is a super coffee machine your girlfriend got you. Wow. It must make great coffee. You really give some good practical advice to students. Soon, you'll be a great mentor, too, compassionate and enthusiastic. You seem to judge yourself the most critically, and you seem to be very supportive to your friends, not judgy. Funny how you find your pants in women's clothes! I like men's jackets... more pockets! I should really shop in men's and say, "Kai sent me!" 😉 This is a great vlog. Thanks so much! Study hard!
As a nursing student now from a mid career switch in a corporate job. sometimes i Regret my decision because, nursing have so much attachments and so much studying and the pay is so little as compared to my previous job😅 Am also an introvert, i hate to talk to people not that i am unfriendly but generally i like to keep to myself and be alone perhaps cos i’m an only child. And as a nurse in hospital you need to talk to almost everyone in the ward whether you like it or not.. during my breaks during shifts, i like to go somewhere peaceful and have my meals rather than being in the staff room and mingle with others😅 i need my peace! let’s see where i will go after this. wish i have known all these before i started nursing…
Thanks for sharing your tips!! I just started my first semester of nursing school in NYC and your content really inspires me to work hard to become a good nurse. Good luck on your NCLEX :)))
Bro as a nursing student right now who's not doing as well as I thought i'd be doing I really needed the tips you gave! Good luck on your nursing journey! I'm actually really curious what made you choose nursing?
Hi kai. Don't forget to answer la charity prioritization and delegation book before taking the nclex. that would really help a lot in prio and deleg questions and safety questions. Also, I will always recommend archer q-bank with it's readiness assessment. Best of luck, you got this!
Bro i failed 3 times. Got in depression but i pulled thru! You can do it! . One tip i can tell you if you are not sure just dont add it better not get a score than get a minus.
Hello Kai. I am a spanish nurse. I know that there, you have different levels in nursing. Here, most of us are generalists and we serve most specialties. From what you say, you haven't friends during nursing school because of your shyness. It does't matter. It's not too late yet. You can have very good friends from now on. You have them here, on RU-vid, but you will have many more when you start working. The different difficult and critical situations with patients will make you have good friendships with your work team, since you depend on each other for the benefit of the patient. And also, in your practices, take into account the advice of nurses. I have nursing students and i help them with knowledge, such as the procedures they have to do to get a job. Cheer up and go ahead! Your shyness is your great ally, because it is also a virtue for your relationship with the patient.
@@Hwaniiee Believe in ourself. I know it's difficult, but you will learn to do It. Cheer Up, one more effort, and you are already nurse, anda above allí, a good person!
Kaim thank you for sharing with us of your thoughts, personally i also find my self not feeling worthy of participating on a conversation. Wisdom of the day, be proud of your self and own thoughts, they'll could be the words of someone else
You should try sleeping with an eye sleep mask on because any light can interfere with melatonin production (pretty sure, anyways 🙂). A real silk one is the best!
Oh wow thanks for sharing about talking about your Anxiety. Not many people talk about they anxiety. I will definitely look for anxiety journal. That will help 😊
I am also an introverted nursing student, I haven’t made any friends yet in my program. My cousin is a registered nurse and a piece of advice she gave me was to make study buddies/groups.
how are you always motivated to study? im in high school and am struggling in math because im taking trig freshman year. i want to practice and study but i never feel motivated to actually get started. my grades are dropping and i keep telling myself to do it but for some reason just cant go for it when i really need too. any tips?
I think I can help here I failed my 12th grade previous year , the main reason for me is because I would study 10+ hours in weekends with so many syllabus piled up cause I didn't had motivation to do it day by day and would leave everything in the deadline. My tip is , "DO NOT RELY ON MOTIVATION" Discipline and consistency is the key , either you feel like studying or not , plzzz study!!! There is no magic pill. Studying even 2 hours a day is better then leaving everything till deadline. And how to build discipline?? Start with super small baby steps and goals , and eventually doing that again & again will make you feel super confident and consistent. What also started helping me is before your study time watch some of study vlogs , ( uni vlogs, related to your field) it somehow gives you motivation to do good too!! Hopefully this can help
Hi!! can you make a video about how you chose your college for nursing and some steps to get into it if you haven’t already? i’m currently between whether i want to go to a school for nursing or another school and major in biology
Are you using archer? I used it and did 85 questions every day up until the exam. It also has a CAT feature that can help you with NCLEX testing. I just passed last week, and I know you will do the same! Good luck!
Is it true that the passing score for the NCLEX-RN is 50%? I recently took the NCLEX-PN test, and my scores were similar to what you are scoring now compared to just the test scoring. Three days before the test, I relaxed and didn't study much. I just watched a few videos and read some notes. Take your time, read the questions, and find out what they are asking you. You got this!!
