Its official! I pass! Im a Register Nurse!! Its feels really good. Thank you Heavenly Father, allnurses, all the awesome people I met here.

My source:

Kaplan Qt and Qbank: way harder then the actual Nclex but was helpful, it help me think critically.

Saunders: read the entire book 4 times (ok 5 times, 6 on some chapters:lol2:) Who knew I could actually read. A big surprise for me too I didn't know reading could be fun.

Nclex4000: I honestly can't make up my mind if this source helped me.

NCSBN: i enrolled 3 weeks. In my opinion 3 weeks wasn't enough because I read even their content.

Random Facts on the sticky notes: I must have read this like3-4 times. Somebody with a good heart put together most of the post.

PDA: very helpful.

Prayers: very important even with my busy day I did the rosary almost daily.

Also I read lots of post saying they had meds that they never heard of so I would go to American Food and Drug Administration website to check is there new drugs?? I also check American Diabetes Association, it helpful (although I didn't have questions on endocrine) they have what you need to know about diabetes A-Z they have topics that i didnt see on the Saunders Review.American Cancer, CDC (what are the hot/new issues). I figured hey I'm gonna work in America let me get myself educated..

I heard Hurst is a good review. I really wish I had this because I know it would probably help me too. But again limited funds.

Sorry I know how frustrating it is to have so much source, during my exam I had a mission to figure what source really help me so I can post it here but sorry i fail in that I don't know which one is the most helpful.

Guys my life is so hard. I didn't even have a quiet place to study. I had very limited funds I couldn't afford daycare and no one to help me not even friends/family.The father of my kids he was always tired from work when he comes home he would play xbox to relax even on his days off. :( For my stress reliever I go to allnurses.com as much as I can because it relieves my tension. I often wish I had at least enough funds to go get my hair/nails done or go yoga.

Goodluck to all. Please if I can do it (me who everyone around me thinks/threat me like Im dumb) If I can do it you can do it.

@nurse671,

CONGRATSq!!!!!!! OMG SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congatulationssssssss! If you don't mind sharing, can u break down your nclex questions, what were the majority of questions about? Thanks much

congrats, you did it!!!! You worked so hard and now you can bask in your success!

I feel you on so many levels, I have a small child with little help, almost zero financial resources aside from government help, nowhere to study... But I push hard, I wake up early to go study at school, spend countless hours at Starbucks to study (I even bring my daughter!). Its rough. but I'm almost there. 10 more months of school, I can taste the victory that will come in the end.

If you REALLY want the letters RN after your name, nothing can stop you!

Specializes in Psych.

Congratulations! Way to fight for it. I feel your pain - I taught full time while I was in nursing school, raising four kids with little help. Study time was a rare commodity.

McDonalds was my best friend. I'd go buy a cup of coffee and some french fries for the kids, turn them loose in the play place, and get cracking on the books. My kids kind of miss me being in school now.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! :w00t: Way to go!!!!!!!!! :hrnsmlys:

Thanks! Its been a long journey for me. Its time for a new chapter. I now know that nothing is impossible esp if theres determination and God by my side.

SCSTxRN kids are so precious. :)
