I took my exam on 3/17 and found out this morning at 3:50 I passed. My sister who is a nurse and works night shift called me to let me know my name was posted. That was the best wake up call ever.

To those who are still waiting to take the test, the best of luck. When you take the test remember that you went to school, graduated from nursing school and you CAN DO IT! Best wishes to everyone.

please help!

im a newly nursing graduate from the philippines.. but im a US immigrant. i wanna know if i could directly apply for NCLEX even without taking a local nursing board in the philippines?

thanks for the help!:bowingpur

Some BON's do require local boards. Which state do you live in? Always better to apply to the state you live in and meet their requirements of foreign trained nurse because even if endorsing you usually will still have to meet their requirements so may as well save money and do it with them initially

:redbeathe I think today I hit a breakthrough...I've been waiting for this...

I looked in the mirror and I just happened to look at myself. Crazy NCLEX roller coaster ride I'm taking pretty much makin me look worn and torn.. trying to chase a dream, I left friends, family, and boyfriend behind, travelled across an ocean, be a stranger in a not-so-strange place, feel like a burden by moving back to parents, the pressures of achieving RN beside my name, fighting hard loneliness and trying to adjust, the agony of applying and waiting the BRN, and the struggle to climb Maslows pyramid to self-actualization...then failing nclex for the first time, and in the brink of breaking up a relationship.. I'm a very optimistic person but things are just about to drown me...

Then today I looked in the mirror and I happened to look at myself. I realized I was still standing in front of the mirror and looking at myself, and I just went 'WOW!' All these times I've been looking for some sort of strength, maybe like the strength that I had in nursing school, but I couldn'f find it. I keep telling myself that I know I can do this, why can't I do it, other people can, I went through nursing school, it was hard but I survived, this is just a 265-question exam, why cant I pass it I know I can do this but its not enough. I was angry at the world and at myself, ashamed for failing, doubtful on my abilities, cared much about what other people think, and so afraid to get through the whole thing again. Last few days I've been ambivalent on my preparation, i know I am prepared but I'll never be prepared. But today I looked at myself and I just know deep inside me...it's different, by the way I am holding myself up high again...

I think this is a 'GO' signal...

I will ever be so blessed, come what may, on April 1...
