My big day is going to be on August 19:heartbeat:heartbeat:heartbeat:heartbeat:heartbeat.... I was planning to take it on August 21 but I cannot find a 1pm schedule.
I've been reading Saunders(5th edition) since last week of May but up until now I can't seem to finish it. It's a lot of content to cover but I know I need to refresh everything because i'm a foreign graduate (6 years ago):o:o. I also have La Charity (my best friend swears this is the closest that you can get to NCLEX exam) and NCLEX3500. I finished the Kaplan Strategies book but I still want to try their Qbank(a lot of test takers said they have harder questions compared to NCLEX). Oh and lastly, I'm going to take the Hurst Online review. I've been researching in this site about Hurst and I decided to try it out. I'm not sure if it's a lot of resource , but I just want to pass this exam.
I decided not to tell my family or friends for my upcoming battle but I realized I need a lot of support and PRAYERS...
ohhhh laaaa, laaaa
Now anxiety.....
Anyways, I'll keep you posted.. to all August test takers (July, September, October....) good luck!!!!!

You also notice???? lol... it's just nice to know that I'm not alone. Personally, for us foreign graduate it's harder for us to pass the exam first try. I think it's because of the curriculum?? I don't know. But whatever it is, we all need the support of each other even if you're a US nursing grad, foreign grad, recently graduated or graduated these past years, trying for the first time or trying the nth time.
I know it's a long and rocky journey and I can't wait to see the light at the end of the tunnel. And you're right with God, all things are possible.
