I wouldn't work full-time while studying for a major exam like the NCLEX-PN. It just doesn't seem productive since there is a likely chance to put it off because of exhaustion. For me, personally, I know I can't handle full-time work and part-time study. I have to pay attention to one or the other.

If you don't let go of one job, you will loose them all AND you won't pass the NCLEX.

I think it's crazy to put yourself through all that. At least wait until you pass your test before taking on a per diem job in addition to all your other responsibilities.
