I passed NCLEX-RN 2nd time around!!!!!!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I took the Nclex on Dec. 28th and after about 100 questions. I drove 2hrs home and got the good pvt pop-up. I was so relieved, and today I saw my name and license on the Board of Nursing. Hallelujah, I met my goal to become a RN in 2011. After graduating in May and getting married shortly there after, I had a lot on my plate and I attempted to take the exam without studying to my fullest potential. Biggest mistake ever! Needless to say, after 3 months of diligent studying and review questions I am officially a Registered Nurse.

I utilized the Kaplan RN course book, Priority and Delegation Assignment book LaCharity, and an outstanding review from this site. I cannot stress enough you must do questions everyday and identify your weak areas and work hard to improve on those areas. I did a few Q-trainers (1-4) and the Q-bank, NCLEX-3500 and 4000, Saunders NCLEX-RN app on my ipod touch. I utilized the Saunders app when I was on the go or in bed before going to sleep. It is vitally important to do questions and review content and understand the rationales.

My exam was comprised of SATA's, infection control, prioritization, and pharm. My overall experience 2nd time around was much better than the first time. Confidence is key while preparing and taking your exam. Every future test-taker must know they can master this exam and speak well about themselves and their capabilities. Believe in yourself and know that all things are possible with Christ. Prayer really helps tremendously too!
