Hi everyone,
I am not new to the site, been a lurker since beginning nursing school. Just a bit of a background:
Married with 4 kids. Live in Alaska where my husband is stationed in the Airforce. I have been to 5 colleges in the past 12 years working on my nursing degree. (stopping to have children here and there..lol)
Anyhow, the waiting list here in Alaska was so long and I was done with my prereqs so I entered an LPN program that bridges to RN (basically like a cut in line) and will begin my bridge to RN in the fall.
During my preceptorship I had such a wonderful experience in the hospital Rehab unit that they hired me as a nursing assistant until I pass my boards. They do not even hire LPN's but are willing to make the exception for me!
Now, I sit waiting on my NCLEX results and going insane.
Alaska does not participate in quick results and I keep checked the BON every 5 minutes. I took my test on the 1st at 8am and computer shut off at 85. I am hanging on to confidence that I did not completely bomb it, but you never know. I think it's absolutely ridiculous to make people wait so long
The longer time ticks, and the more I read about other's seeing results in the most 48 hours aside from California, the more I get scared.
Looking forward to getting to know you as I wait. To think, i have to take this stupid test next year again for the RN!
Would you like to comment?
