Hi everyone I seen alot of people who did their NCLEX story and it gave me so much motivation and encouragement so I decided to share my story.
-My last day of nursing school was Dec.14.2017
-I registered with Kbn Dec.4.2017
-I got my Provisional license and att dec.19.2017 And scheduled my exam for jan.3.2018
I had 2 weeks to study and I answered about 800 questions before my scheduled date. On the day of the test I got nervous but I took my time and tried my best and the test stopped at 85 questions!! I had alot of SATA, meds, and priorty questions. As soon as I got home I did the Pvt and got the good pop up! Today(Jan.4) about 8am I checked Kbn and it was official! LPN was next to my name. I just want to wish everyone the best of luck if I can do it I think anyone can and thanks to all the advice and encouragement on allnurses!!
UWORLD is a great tool. i know 6 people (RN & PN) including myself, who used uworld and passed. It is worth it. Now, dont be discouraged if you score low on the practice tests, I would score between 50-70%. FOCUS on the rationals.
I also used simplenursing.com videos to help understand diseases i was uncertain of, and the book "nursing made easy" the week before my exam. Good luck!
I took nclexx yesterday computer shut off 85! Im such a wreck waiting on results!i would have thought the computer would have given me a chance to pass are did i mess up that bad?I got alot sata,priority,putting in order, one math question, can anyone help with what im going through?
I hope you passed. I took my Nclex pn yesterday March 6th. I got the "good popup" an hour after. Checked the continental testing site today and I passed!!!!
I took my NCLEX yesterday 03/12/2018 at 2:15pm, it took me almost 2.5 hours. This is the 4th time taking it, all previous tests shut off at 85 and I failed. This time it shut off at 85 again and I about died! Half my test was SATA and Priority questions. Some Infection control, 1 fill in med and 1 picture. I ran to my car and did the pearson trick and got the GOOD POPUP!! I hope this is a good sign.
I attended a review with: LIFESAVERS (Professor Paul) Honestly it is the BEST REVIEW out there right now!! I tried Kaplan, Hurst, UWORLD, many books and study material THAT DID NOT HELP ME! The only thing that helped me was to attend a live review with LIFESAVERS. I wrote everything down on flashcards and studied (not everyday) but I studied and a few days before my exam I studied majority of the whole day (taking eating breaks) I even used the SUPERMAN and the VCHIPS method to correlate diseases to help me remember.
LIFESAVER review focuses on the material you need to know, believe me!! I'll be back to share my final results.
I just want to wish everyone the best of luck if I can do it I think anyone can and thanks to all the advice and encouragement on allnurses!!
