mixed emotions about retaking NCLEX

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Well, I finally got my ATT yesterday. But I can't take the test yet until 03/23/07 (b/c of the 50 days waiting period). I really want to take it before april 1, 2007 since the test plan was suppose to be harder. Yeah, I know people have said in here that it shouldn't changed that much and it shouldnt be that hard. But for me it's really hard to look at it that way because my confidence is already dented after failing the nclex. My only problem about taking the nclex before 04/01 is that I haven't really studied much the way i should be. I have been working nights and by the time i get home, i am super tired, take care of my family and pretty much sleep as much as i can during the day. So i KNOW im not ready yet! But i really just want to take it and be an RN. But to top it off, I am very very very scare and uneasy about retaking the nclex. Please help me with any advice you may have. thank you all.

Well the day has finally arrived and I am going to take the test at 3. Ive practiced alot of questions and the ones wrong I looked at the rational. I also would read the strategies and tips to help find the right answer too. Going to read mom2michael "I hope this helps" one more time too. Keep those prayers going for me. I am glad to have a forum that I can belong to where we all are in the same boat somewhere along the line and just chat and can give one another input, advise, opinion, praises, complements. Its great

I also failed the first time. I was so upset the first day. I am getting over it and realizing there a worse things in life and that I can re-take the exam. I am going to try a different study approach and study more than I did before. I am currently waiting for the forms to re-register. I am trying to be positive and believe I can pass my second time. It is hard though, knowing I failed once already, and what if I fail again??? I try to stop myself from thinking that. So, good luck to us all and be positive and try to be calm when going into exam. Take a break if you need it, and take your time.

Good luck to you all that are waiting to sit the NCLEX.. Have the faith and fortitude that you WILL succeed. Best of all good things to you all.

I took my test yesterday. I stopped at 85 questions. I felt pretty good about it. I should find out by the first week of April. Waiting is the worst. :madface: Day 1 has begun. Its almost over and Day 2. I am excited to find out.
