LPN about to take NCLEX-RN

Published

Hi, I hope this is the correct forum to post this in. I just have a quick question for those people that were LPNs that went on to pursue their RN. I've been an LPN for 3 years and decided to go back and get my BSN. I just graduated this May and am schedule to take my boards this Tuesday, Yikes! At first, I didn't study very much thinking that if I passed one, I will pass the other. Don't get me wrong, I'm studying my butt off now, ha! But the closer it gets to Tuesday the more scared I get. I've heard so many stories of LPNs failing their RN boards due to them using their own personal experiences and I'm so scared that I will do the same. I have a 98% predictability to pass based on my comp ATI and just been using my Kaplan book I bought at the bookstore and a comp Saunders book. IDK, I think I'm just rambling because I'm so nervous. Anyone else been in the same boat as me? Thanks :)

good luck today kellt!!!! let us know how it goes!!!!!

Ok, I did the trick too, over and over. Got the same"good " pop up.Which makes me hopeful but thats all that makes me optomistic. It was freaking HARD! I only had two questions that I knew the answer for. The SATA were killing me! I only got one math question. Im scared cuz i didnt get one diagram, pic, sound etc...

Its cruel that we cant find out right away how we did. Someone does need to do something about that, problem is, we will all get our results and move on. Atleast Im in a state that allows me to know before two weeks!!! OMG, id be insane.

anyone find out how they did, let us know!!!!

Good luck and God bless!
