Your post was awesome. I'm not even in nursing school yet and you got me excited to get to where you were...despite the highly charged anxiety of passing the NCLEX.

Thanks for sharing your story - VERY WELL!

Well, Good Luck girl!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am taking it soon as well. How did you prepare? Did you think it was difficult? Someone in this or other chat mentioned NCLEX study within allnurses.com site but have not been able to get that info. is this true or not?

I love this post and not only for the post itself but for all the replies. I am really surprised by how many 30-something nursing students/grads there are. I feel much better now, well almost, if I can pass this stupid Algebra class all will be right w/the world.

Thanks for the post!

ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS - well you understand what I mean. Afterall this is coming from someone else (who is 40 something) getting ready to take the exam TOMORROW! Your post certainly entertained me as you were able to sum it all up so eloquently and efficiently - especially the part about the hubby and mom response! Our loved ones just don't get it - how horrid it would be to have to re-take .......but they do their best to console!!!

Congratulations and wish me luck!!!!!!

Darimom,

Good Luck with your exam today. For me the worst part about having to take that exam again would have been the studying. I studied on and off for 6 months (not by choice - ATT didn't show up for 5 months!), so thinking about studying again was horrible!
