I've been struggling for so many years to pass my nclex-rn and can't even remember how many times I took the exam :-(....I even got all kinds of the review materials of nclex and many times for a review class...I've tried my best in every test and you are so right God has plan and for me to be patient :-)
Thanks all its the best feeling in the world! EzarahMari Keep your head up I promise you can do this its most likely anxiety at this point you know the info. Just do tons of questions and everytime you take a Practice quiz put in ear plugs turn off everything and take it like its the real Nclex I have the worst test anxiety I could teach the study group but time test day came I would get my exam and freeze up and freak out so by doing this you will help lessen the anxiety it worked for me and just tell yourself I will Be an RN! Best Wishes!

OKay First of All congrats to getting to this point, we forget to pat ourselves on the back at times! I took Nclex 11/06/2010 and Today found out I PASSED! So I thought I would just share my story. First of all it helps If you went to a Good nursing school and knew the material not cheated your way through the program that made me angry when I found out people were doing but it paid off they can't pass boards. Anyways How to pass I used Hurst Review It really helped me cause you review what you learned in nursing school and it make not a light bulb go off but a whole power company come together its educational and funny! In nursing school you develop nursing school humor that friend outside nursing school don't really get but in nursing school its hilarious. Marlene is so funny when teaching it was like watching Stand up Comedy Nursing school edition so you laugh and it sticks with you. Other than that I did All nurses "RANDOM FACTS" Thread. It does take a while to go through but it really helped! I did over a 1000 Practice question and over came my fear of SATA! And Most of all I prayed! Not to pass but for God to give me the ability to apply the knowledge I've obtained in the past few years and just breath and stay clam! So Before the Exam I Told myself these things: Breath you did go to nursing school so its not like its new information, You don't have to make a 100 you just have to Save more ppl than you kill. Um ABCs, Safety, listen to the patient, Pick the killer answer" who will die first?" Who can do what, Don't delegate what you can EAT: Evaluate, Assess, or Teach! IF Sata use the True or false helped me. When Nclex day comes act like its the thousands of practice exams you already done it helped decrease my anxiety. Pray and Begin your exam! If I can help anyone would be more than happy too and Remember if you don't pass pick yourself up dust off and try again, you came this far you can do it! God has a plan for you! BEST WISHES TO ALL! Thank you so much ALL Nurses!!!
