Hi! NEWBIE HERE
OOOKAY SO HERE IS MY STORY, dont we all have one?
I GRADUATED PRIMARY, JR. HIGH, & HIGH SCHOOL IN CALIFORNIA. MY PARENTS SENT ME TO THE PHILIPPINES TO TAKE MY BSN THERE. A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER GRADUATION I AM BACK HERE IN CALIFORNIA. NOW AS WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE CONCURRENCY ISSUE, THERE IS NO CHANCE OF TAKING THE NCLEX HERE SO MY WAY OUT OF IT IS TO TAKE THE EXAM ON OTHER STATES. SILLY AS THIS MAY SOUND BUT I GATHERED ALL THE STATES I COULD POSSIBLY TAKE THE NCLEX THEN WROTE THEM ON A PIECE OF PAPER AND PICKED ONE OUT! ****I PICKED TEXAS****
AS MY JOURNEY BEGINS :) I WANNA GET AS MUCH HELP/TIPS AS I COULD TO HOPEFULLY PASS THE EXAM.
WHAT I HAVE DONE SO FAR:
>*IELTS EXAM-BAND SCORE OF 8.0 -- TOOK IT ALSO BECAUSE I'M HOPING TO PURSUE HIGHER EDUCATION HERE
>*TURNED IN MY TRANSCRIPT TO CGFNS BE EVALUATED
>*
*I'M STILL CURRENTLY LIVING IN CALIFORNIA TILL I GET FEEDBACK FROM CGFNS. I'LL BE MOVING ALL BY MYSELF. LEAVING FAMILY BEHIND AS WELL AS MY DAUGHTER. IT'S ALMOST SCARY! BUT WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, I KNOW DEFINITELY I'LL MAKE IT SOMEDAY..
*IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE WHO COULD HELP ME ON WHAT TO DO NEXT? AND WHAT TO EXPECT? TIPS? COMMENTS? SUGGESTIONS? I'VE ALREADY STARTED REVIEWING. I HAVE THE SAUNDERS BOOK AND CURRENTLY WAITING FOR THE PDA-LACHARITY & MARYANN HOGAN NCLEX BOOK. I NEED AS MUCH HELP AS I DON'T EVEN HAVE AN IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN I'M MOVING BECAUSE I HAVE NO FAMILY/FRIENDS DOWN IN TEXAS. SO PLEASE PLEASE DO HELP ME OUT :) OOOOHHH YOUR HELP WOULD MEAN A LOT! GOOOOODLUCK TO ALL OF US.
