I took the NCLEX on 05Aug09 and found out that I passed on 10Aug09. Today, 12Aug09, I found out that my license to practice as a Registered Nurse has been approved!!! Yay!!! Now to get my pocket license in the mail. I am so happy!

Congratulations, I can't wait to get to that point. How hard was NCLEX?
I studied using the Saunders CD, ATI DVDs, and an audio review. The test wasn't as hard as I imagined it would be. The hardest part of the whole thing was trying to control my nerves before, during, and after the test - especially through waiting for the results. My best advice would be to do practice questions and focus on areas that you know you are weak in. Study in a "test-like" environment - no food, no tv, no noise, etc., and devote at least an hour a day to some kind of review. And mix it up so you don't get bored. Good luck.
