After assuming the worst, I passed!!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Hi everyone,

First of all, I want to thank everyone for their support. That is the true spirit of nursing. You guys always are so caring and gave me strength these past 4 days, which were torture!!!

The day before NCLEX I actually did kaplans question trainer 7 and did fairly well with a 67. The morning of NCLEX I did 20 qbank questions in order to get in the mood...(but I would recommend relaxing...hehe) I only got 75 questions and I thought they were so easy and assumed I failed...but after 5 days of waiting I found out I passed!!!!

Somehow, I thought Kaplan strategies didn't help, just doing questions and reading the rationales to see what they were actually asking!!! We graduated college and we have the knowledge within us and just have to know how to use it!!!! All of you out there you can do this!!!

If waiting for results...

The number of questions and type of questions have no say in whether you will pass or fail!!!!!!!! I only got 6 SATA and easy questions and passed!!!! Please wait for your results and learn from my experience!!! I couldn't eat and sleep! My anxiety was affecting me and also my family!!! I have a baby and was stuck studying most of the time!!! Enjoy your family...they will love you no matter what! I would recommend using suzannes plan...instead of Hurst and Kaplan who drill so much information into your head!!! Kaplan has a 600 page book!!! Suzanne was very helpful with her comments and knows cramming isn't the way!!! Good luck and thanks everyone...If I can help anyone just email me....

...oh am so proud!!!!

rockenmom and jazzysmika,

Thanks you guys!!!! I tested July 1st at 0800. I didn't check the CA BRN website until Saturday morning which was the 5th...and according the the website it was and still is updated in July the 2nd. That's weird because on my license activation it states July 3, 2008...weird but you guys know its different for everyone!!! my friend tested with me and still his name isn't up!!! Just be patient for those waiting!!!

This is torture...I am truly convinced. If you tested before me, and you got your results, I know for me I didn't pass. I feel good but bad, because my name is not up there. It's silently killing me. I just can't stand waiting like this, by now, I know for sure I didn't pass...my name should have been up there!Thanks for the words of encouragement however!!:zzzzz:zzzzz

guess the anxiety of waiting for the results is far greater than writing the test itself...

Congratulations!!!

It was the most stressful week of my life, but at the end I got my price: my name on BON followed by my licence number. YES, I PASSED! I AM AN RN!!! It's a good feeling.

I'm upset too.. everytime i check my name on the site, i see that it's not yet posted... i guess I'll have to wait for my results via mail... I'll just stop being paranoid checking the site everytime and everyday and just keep myself busy for the rest of the week... goodluck to us!!
