NCLEX-PN HELP

Published

I graduated LPN school in May 2006. I took the NCLEX-PN 3 times and I failed all 3 times. It's been 3 years since I've graduated and over year since the last time I took NCLEX-PN. After not passing I felt very discouraged. I think I am ready to try this again but I need advice and encouragement. I really want this. I worked to hard through school to just give up. If anyone can help me or give me advice I would really really appreciate it.

Brandi,

I really do think you should take the NA test, it's be a "practice test" for your N-Clex PN. You take your study skills from this and apply it to your NClex PN Exam. I know my friends who are RN's and LPNs even Medical Assistants said that they took on Nursing Assistant for a part time job while going to school and they actually did better in all their classes because they worked as a "nurse" and adapted all the skills and knowledge needed to be a nurse and by the time they were done with school and was time to take their exam, since they worked as a "nurse" in a nursing home and hospital they knew all the answers to the questions like the back of their hand because they dealt with the situations in real life while working in the clinics and did the nursing jobs. Since it was second nature to them now they went and took the exam without second guessing themselves. Even when there were questions they didnt know, they applied it to other similar events they dealt with and used that as a guidance to there answers.

While working as an NA you can also make friends in he nursing field and use them as support to becoming a LPN.

Nursing School is hard and you graduated already meaning that you can do it! So you went through it all and you know it all. If you didnt you wouldnt of made it through the first semester of classes. So you can do this. I know that I have to get my A game on when my nursing classes start in August. My children are my priorities but my schooling is my next priority. Just doing my pre-reqs was hard because I just skimmed through all my readings and just took my exams like whatever. I know that school is very important too me and I know that I want this really bad but I also know that I have t sacrafice my social life, my being a great mother to when mommy has time mother, and lock myself down on a strict schedule so i can succeed. This a short term sacrafice for a long term success in a great life for my family. So you get a call to go to a party or to a bbq and you have an exam coming up or reading to do... the last thing you want is to get behind.... ever. So, become a NA, get your study materials ready and make notecards so you can bring them EVERYWHERE.... literally. Study, study, study... in the bathroom, while eating, sitting and waiting in the car... you get what I mean. "Become the little girl who can site her favorite bedtime story without knowing how to read." and with this you will succeed.No questions asked. Though this time take your time and study, but keep it consistant so you can maintain all the imformation learned. Nursing changes all the time and thats why they say that you have to get done with the program within 4 years. You should call the nursing board to make sure how long you need to take the test. Like NA's they only have 2 years to take the exam before it expired. So you should check into that also. The cram exam seems like a good idea to because if you cant use your notecards, like while driving, you can listen to the cd instead. Make sure you give yourself at least a month of hard core studying before you take you exam next. you may hate being anti social for a little while but remind yourself why you are doing this. :nuke: To be a nurse. Since its been 3 years just reviewing the information wont be enough and carming for it wont be either. So play it smart this time and do it. you did your time in the class room and succeeded not this time its time to take your classroom experience and put it in the real world. You can do this!
