:nurse:please review my prior thread
https://allnurses.com/forums/f50/i-will-not-quit-247314-new-post.html
Nursing school beacme a struggle after my pregnancy, I did not give up. I continued school this january. I had to take a exit hesi in march and could not pass, after taking the test twice and my scores were a 79 and an 80 i was afraid that an 87 was never going to happen. My grandmother , one of my best friends passed away and I just wanted to quit. I felt that I could just find a job that would pay my bills, I struggled to figure out how i was going to pay for yet another class, I wondered time and time again.. why is this happening to me. I cried myself to sleep so many nights, waking up with migraines and wondering what would become of my future as a nurse.
Well i could tell that people were praying for me, The school gave me a grant to pay for my class and after receiving a 83 on my third try, though i still did not pass the exit hesi i felt that it was within reach. On June 3rd I passed with a 93! I knew that I was finally on my way.I took my nclex on Friday(my sons 1st birthday) I figured that it was a good day so far, so why not? And after getting 96 questions I was unsure did i pass? But I did, Today I am a nurse, a RN!!! Thanks to evryone that post on this site, I read so many positive threads, it really kept me going... please never give up!

CONGRATS!!!!
and Best of luck. i have a feeling you were an Ace as you weren't in my class. i passed the exit hesi with a an almost perfect score and i didn't study for it. However, i'm stressing about the boards. I always had an almost perfect score on the HESIs. i'm not sure if doing well on them is a good predictor of the nclex.
I admire you for making it through this crazy program situated here on 15th and vine. And to go through with a pregnancy?.....
i was stressed most of the time working full time and dealing with this crazy so i can't imagine how people make it with a pregnancy.
You deserve your license, you worked hard for it and i wish you all the best with your new job.
