Hell yeah passed the nclex pn first try!

Yes after 2 yrs of graduating lvn school I took the nclex on Aug 6th, 2015 and I just got my results in today and I freakin passed first try with 205 questions and used all 5 hrs! Lol ahhh I'm still in disbelief that I pass...I for sure thought I failed. And yes the pvt trick works! Checked it after 5 min after my test and I got the good pop up! This has been a long journey and I needed to have faith in the lord and myself. Struggling to start over and study this exam after being out of school for 2 yrs. It took a lot of sacrifice and patience. God is good!🙏

Yes I am! I hate that we dnt have quick results! Was really stressful waiting for that passed letter. Lol now I can officially relax

what city did you take your exam? do you remember some questions?

  • Author

I took it in fairfield, CA! To be honest the test was a blurr...nclex is do broad u dnt know what to expect. But I do remember getting a lot of delegation and prioritization

Did you ever contact BVNPT to ask about your test, or did you just wait? Its a long wait :oldman: but it does give me a chance to work on my resume/interview skills.

I actually called last week and it was 3 weeks already since I took my test. I had to call to see when it was coming in cuz I couldn't take the wait any longer! Lol the person that I talked to told me they were working on August 6th results so I ahd to wait another week and I will receive it which is true Cuz I got it yesterday! 😁 Hang in there and you'll get yours soon too! I think while waiting, working on your resume and looking for jobs is a good start!

How did you study? Did you think the reviews were close to the test ? There are so many reviews out there.

i signed up for Hurst review which helped me with content a lot since I was out of school for 2 yrs and haven't taken the nclex yet. So I needed to know my content real good...but let's be honest we can't know everything in the short amount of time since my registration to test expired end of August so I had to take it soon.I basically study a month and half straight. I also used two books along with hurst. The first book was called Kaplan strategy book 2015-2016. It helps u how to break down and understand what the question is asking you plus how to eliminate answers. Very useful but the practice questions were really hard. The other book I used was a delegation prioritize and assessment book by Lacharity. This book helped me A LOT!!! I had a good amount of delegation and who to see first questions. A must have trust me! The last few weeks I focused on doing 100 questions through saunders evolve everyday and going over lab values. I stopped trying to study content cuz I know damn well it was just too late and I wouldnt be able retain any info. The day before my test I did not study one bit...I relaxed hanged out with friends. It pretty much calmed my nerves and my stress. I studied really hard...I took a month off of work to dedicate studying for nclex. Didn't help me financially but it was totally worth cuz I passed!😁 Hope this helps! Good luck and I know you'll pass! If I can do it u can too!☺️

Omg you're almost done hang in there! Since u scheduled for Nclex in January and will be done with school soon...you should definitley practice nclex questions. Try to do 50-100 questions everyday day until you're test. If u have saunders book it comes with a code to get online to do questions which consist of 3,000 different format of questions through evolve. You have an advantage since you're taking the test right after school...so content u pretty much got down and now it's time for u to get an idea what kind of questions you'll be dealing with on nclex. I'll be honest, that test is like no other test I have ever taken. Nclex is so broad but if u prepare yourself by getting exposure to nclex type questions u should be ok. If u need a review course on content u should consider doing an online course such as Hurst (which I did) or kaplan but it's pricey. But that's up to u since you're finishing up school since and the material is still fresh in ur mind. So idk if a review will even be necessary but that's up to u. Pls take ur test Asap! Dnt wait or reschedule ur test a lot Cuz that's what I did and look I waited 2 yrs and wasted all that school and had to pay for a review to start from scratch. So pls pls pls...take it as soon as possible. Okay I sorry for the long essay lol but I know how u feel Cuz I was in the same shoes as u 2 yrs ago and I wished I did it the right way but hey...things happen. It probably wasn't my time and God wanted me to wait until I was ready which was now. Good luck and God bless!
