CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!:balloons:WIll you please pass any tips, smartness, or good luck vibes for me.. I retake the NCLEX next FRIDAY!!! I also am in NC!!!!
What part of NC are you in? I am in Durham..
Thank you!!! Lippincott helped me out a great deal, but I also used Saunders and the NCLEX 3000 CD Rom. Make sure you focus on prioritization and delegation in studying. Endocrine review was helpful for me, as well. Man, I am still in shock! I'll send good luck vibes your way. Hopefully your results will get to you faster than mine got to me. I wish you all the best and look forward to hearing when you get your results.
P.S. I am in Greenville. How do you like Durham?
Thank you for the tips. I am using the Kaplan QBANK which is thousands of questions with explainations.. I also have a Kaplan book... During the beginning of the week I will be in the Kaplan classroom course.. I just hope and pray that this time is it for me!!
I really do like Durham!! They have tons of shopping which is a bonus!! I will be down in Charlotte all next week and will take my test in Charlotte.... I cant wait to get my results!!
Congratulations again!! How are you celebrating??? YOu better have a cocktail in atleat one hand!! JK!!
This was in NC. I was applying from MA, which is where i took my boards. I guess the hold up was that they didn't have the results from my background check yet, but it took 11 days for them to send me a letter saying I passed my test and about another week before they issued the license.Congrats...what state was this? Still waiting and it is 15 days. Zar
Thank you to everyone for the congrats and support. It's really exciting, but now that I have started my job it is somewhat terrifying knowing how much there is to learn and how much I just don't know yet!
Thank's again everyone!
Good luck to you Zar. I know what it's like to wait and I think that was the worst part out of the whole experience. I started to really doubt myself and no one wanted to be around me because I was so "bleh." Hang in there and keep us all updated when you find out your results. :)

I PASSED. I got the letter in the mail today. The license will be issued once my results from the Criminal Background Check come back. I am so relieved! I jumped up and down in my apartment and couldn't stop after I read the letter. I was expecting the worst and had to re-read to make sure it said PASSED and that I wasn't hallucinating!
