A thread for all those in March who are planning to take the NCLEX offering both support and any hints or tips that help
Good luck to all
: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...

All depends on the BON and whether they will issue you with a license without a SSN. If they don't then you will probably not see your name on their website but have to wait for a letter
