I FINALLY got my PASS in the mail today! I took the Nclex 4 previous times, and I had tried Hurst, Kaplan and studying on my own. This time I did Uworld, I went after it seriously! I knew my disease signs and symptoms inside and out, I also knew my Lab Values inside and out. I had taken the test 4 times, each time getting the MAXIMUM AMOUNT of questions and would be Near Passing on EVERYTHING.
This time, I did Uworld, I went in with the attitude that I am going to take the LAST test I ever have to take! I STILL got all the questions---I knew I failed when I left there. I got ALOT of select all questions, one math, TONS OF "which patient would you see first" -a lot of exhibit questions and SEVERAL meds. I told my family I might as well plan on when I'm taking it next....I refused to check my results. Today my letter came- I opened it, and was looking and it was just two pages! Where was the report I thought??? I LOOKED AND IT SAID "PASS" I am still in shock, that test was hard, but I TOTALLY believe that Uworld was the answer!!! Tonight marked my ONE YEAR of walking across the stage graduating....and TODAY I got my PASS IN THE MAIL! Never give up!!!! You all will make it, I knew I failed...I just knew. But I passed!

I told myself" failure isnt an option".
Thanks for motivating me. Your post kept me away from
any negetivity. Good luck for your future. And God bless you and your family.

Best of Luck and keep it positive the whole time! Go through the steps, is it safe? If I can only do ONE thing and walk away for this pt. what is it? YOU GOT THIS! Thank you for the nice compliment! Look at this test as a gift that you GET to take...Not a burden! Give it all you got!!!
How did ya do? I am glad I motivated you. Remember, it took me 4 times of failing. I had to get myself in the right frame of mind and I truly believe in Uworld. It's a wonderful tool to me.
