cONGRATS, GRACE!!!

IT MUST HAVE BEENT HE BEST FEELING U EVER HAVE AFTER ALL THE ISSUES HERE. I, MYSELF, IS SAD ABOUT THE CONTROVERSY

I WOULD LIKE TO ASK IF THE KAPLAN BOOK/SAUNDERS OR ANY NCLEX REVIEW BOOKS HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF QUESTIONING OR APPROACH IN THE ACTUAL EXAMS? OR LUCKILY SAME QUESTIONS COMING OUT INCIDENTALLY? HAHAHA IS THAT POSSIBLE TOO?

gracediwa · Oct 3, 2006

Thanks Lasagna and to all who greeted me!!

(and to OTHERS who helped me while I was reviewing for NCLEX and processing my nclex application forms. No need to mention your names, you all know who you are)

Mixed feelings!

As for the type of questioning, yes, it has the same format. Easy to understand. Actually, the questions are easy! It's the choices that's scary! They all seemed to be the correct answer. You really have to eliminate one by one.

I did not use Kaplan. I used saunders only. Same questions? Nope. But most of the topics asked can be found in the book. If you will look at it, it may seem familiar, but it's not the exact word or question.

Saunders helped me to become familiar with the type of questioning. And how to eliminate wrong answers, etc, etc.

And oh, before I forget, it's Suzanne who gave me the study guide and so MUCH MUCH thanks to her! (even though I always argue with her, hehehe!)

If you want the study guide, send her your email address through PM. I could share it with you, but I think it would be better if she's the one who'll give it.

my study guide is never shared among students. smart move.

any one who wants it must complete the first tip that is posted on the nclex forum, before i will even consider adding you to my list.

and please complete it before contacting me.

gracediwa · Oct 5, 2006

Yes, I understand. Just like what I've said/written, it would be better or best that they ask the guide from you. And I remember, it was mentioned in one of your study guides that it should never be shared among us. Thanks!!

WOW!! CONGRATULATIONS:jester: !!!! OMG, HOW I WISH I WOULD BE ABLE TO CELEBRATE JUST LIKE U.... NEXT YEAR MAYBE. HEHEHE. I CAN FEEL THE EXCITEMENT!! AND I AM SO GOING TO FOLLOW YOUR TIPS!

KUDOS!:yelclap:

gracediwa · Oct 9, 2006

I wish I could celebrate. But no, not yet. Not until this scandal about NLE is over. And NCLEX is only the beginning of many things yet to be accomplished. There's IELTS, visascreen, job hnting, interviews, immigration, relocating, etc etc etc.. One at a time..

48 hours after you take the exam.
Hubby took the exam Tuesday (US, US grad), by thursday morning we already knew the result. As what grace said, there is an unofficial result from pearson vue that you pay $7+... the official result from TX BON came later that day (for free). Of course we couldn't wait, so paid $7.95 Worth it!:cheers:

Thanks Tagamargos.

My BON (CA) does not participate in QUICK results. Up to this very MOMENT, NO RESULTS YET. Im having palpitations and some sleepless nights. Huhuhuhuhhu

On the lighter side, the wait helps me TRIM some weights. Lose 6 lbs already.

i think they will post your name in the website after 3 days? because that's how i found out i passed...it took two weeks after i got the result via regular mail. just don't worry because it's normal to feel nervous before getting the result. take care :-)

Un/fortunately, CA BRN will not put the name on their on-line site if the applicant did not gave a U.S. SSN and would have to wait for the snail-mail to arrive.

Usually, it's 3-4 weeks only after the exam.
