With so many months of studying and prayers...I PASSED nclex! Thank you God! I still can't believe it! What a wonderful feeling! I kept on reading and re-reading the letter from CA BON that says I've passed the NCLEX-RN exam! I studied Saunder's and did so many Q&A's probably around 1,500 and did the Kaplan Q Trainer. My advice for those nclex takers:
1. Study the golden book Saunders from cover to cover and practice questions everyday.
2. Dont stress yourself and when you feel like nauseous of studying, take a break, and dont ever force yourself to study.
3. Know your most active hours of studying like for me my active hours is in the afternoons and evenings. I studied for the minimum of 1 hour and maximum of 4 hours.
4. Make a calendar and use it to monitor your progress.
5. Divide study and leisure time. Remember the phrase "all work and no play makes a dull mind."
6. Use motivational words to boost your confidence, I have this words posted on my desk "I'll lose only if i don't prepare hard enough" and from the bible "What things so ever you desire when you pray,believe that you receive them and you shall have them- Mark 11:24"
7. Surround yourself with positive people who encourages you and cheers you to go on
8. Two weeks before your exam do the kaplan Q trainer. I got scores of 50's 60's and got 71% on trainer 7.
9. The day on your exam: Charge!!!! and slay the nclex beast! hehehe
10. Finally prayer really works! I went to mass the day before my exam and did the novena to st. jude.
Now all i need is the SSN. Aside from the letter of passing, where else can i confirm that i passed the NCLEX? I just wanted to be sure hehehe Goodluck to everyone! Fight! Fight! Fight!
