I finally passed!!!!!

I would like to thank anyone and everyone who ever helped me when I was preparing for the NCLEX-RN exam, I first attempted the exam in August and failed which really devasted me because I had a good job offer which I had to let go but then I encouraged myself by saying that this exam will not defeat me and started preparing and also praying too because I am heavily pregnant and I know the challenges one faces while been pregnant but I didn't let that stop me,I took a well deserved trip to Canada for 2month and came back prepared to study hard for the exam,I started studying like someone who had never taken the exam before I used Saunders 4th ED & CD, Prioritization,Delegation and assignment, and exam cram to prepare for the exam and only prepared within 3weeks and covered content areas where I was weak at(very,very,important) and practiced questions like there was no tomorrow and I must tell you I got cold feet several times that I changed my dates 5times till I finally decided that December 23rd would be my final testing date,this time God took control of the exam not me because when I started testing the questions looked familiar to me and in cases where I had no clue what the right answer was I was able to eliminated 2options right away and I only answered 75questions before the computer shut down on me and I thot it was going to tell me to take a break so I turned around and waved at the proctor and he told me to look back at my screen and take the survey and that was when I realised that I was done in an hour and 15mins,I just thank God because all I asked for christmas was a gift like this and he made it possible, I got home and tried the PVT 2 times and got the good pop-up and finally my name appear on my BON website.So if I can do it while been almost 9months pregnant I know anyone can do it too.My next task is to have my baby and start searching for a job.Goodluck to all who are testing soon don't be afraid just prepare hard and go take the exam.
