Hell yeah passed the nclex pn first try!

Published

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!🙏

Thanks for sharing your story. Very motivating. I have 4 months left of lvn school and I sign up for nclex in January. Any advice for a study plan? ")

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!

Thank you so much Jsamien1. I will bookmark this thread. I use nclex style questions now on topics discussed in class to prepare for exams and sign up for Kaplan free online classes `1-2x a month. I will start doing the 50 questions on content I admit my patho content is not stellar and really need to deeply understand renal/cardio/resp really well + F&E/acid base.

Peds and maternity ./ Pharm is mostly rote memorization right?

You're welcome! But wow that's cool that they offer u guys kaplan for free! I was going to do kaplan but it was just too expensive! I think it will definitely prepare u got sure! Focus on your weak areas because nclex can pretty much ask u about anything so just be prepared...everyone's test is different. Peds I barely looked at but I had a few questiond on it same goes for maternity. Then again, I can be wrong u probably might not get any questions on those subject. Cuz one of my friend that took the test got majority of pharm do it can vary. Speaking of pharm, it's pretty much memorize not too difficult except there can be meds that u have never seen before so beware! Lol study the basics ones like you're beta blockers, ace inhibitors, psych meds, etc and knowing they're adverse effects. A huge part of the test as well is delegation and priortize. You'll see a lot of them. Get this book called delegation priortize and assessment from Lacharity. It's a life saver! Ooh last thing if you're not good at SATA questions (select all apply) make sure u practice that. If u have an iPhone or android download Nclex apps and do questions. They are called nclex QB and nclex mastery PN. Good luck!

Yes! Even tho that book is meant for RNs, there are questions for delegation and priority questions that help with those type of questions for nclex which I got a good majority of it on the test. I got the book on chegg.com for rental for $16
