My NCLEX RN Story

Published

i just wanted to let other nursing students who have little children during nursing school and nclex know that it is possible. i have a 4 yr and 2 yr and lets just say it was very difficult to study for nclex. i take care of my children all day and i do not allow them to take naps during the day but they still do not keep a set sleeping schedule. sometimes i would have to study after midnight up til four in the morning while knowing that the kids would wake up by 9am.

i studied for nclex with hurst review, saunders, and these nclex rn flash cards someone told me about that are helpful (if you would like to know what they look like (message me)). i can tell you that if it wasn't for saunders, i would not have passed boards. anyways, i finished my test in 76 questions and felt like all i received were sata and priority questions. i did the pearsonvue trick and i got the "good pop up" that everyone talks about.

after stressing about whether or not i passed for 48 hours, i got my results today and i "passed".

Congrats on passing! Tried to send you an IM, but it says you cannot receive them. Can you please share the flash cards you used that were helpful? Thanks!

Specializes in L&D.

congrats that's great! i have 4 kids, age 2.5, 5.5, 7.5, and 9, so i am a bit worried about study time for the nclex considering when it's time to take, it will be summer(next summer)!

Good luck on your NCLEX next year. I guess the point of my post is that you have to "MAKE" time to study.

It might seem hard to study with kids but anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
