NCLEX-RN 2nd try

Published

Hello everyone! I finally decided to post something here :)

My first try was last September (this year) and I failed. I was so disappointed with myself upto the point where I even doubted myself. My sister said that it's okay, just dust it off and move on. After a few days, I scheduled my next exam.

But even now that I'm preparing for my second chance, I can't help but think about my first attempt. There's so many "what ifs' going on in my mind and it's scaring me.

I was so down and scared of the fact that I might not make it again the second time around. I'm not even sure if I'm prepared enough though I've finished watching the DVD series of ATI, read some from the Pathophysiology Book (Prentice Hall Nursing - Hogan/Hill) and answered questions from a Lippincott book. I'll be taking my NCLEX-RN (for the 2nd time) on Saturday, November 30

My friends keep telling me "You can do it", "Keep praying", "Don't doubt yourself 'cause if you doubt yourself you're doubting God".

So any words of encouragement or any last tips will do. Thank you. God bless ^_^

Sorry to hear you failed,I failed PN in Oct 2013 and wanted to die.I knew I failed when I left the testing center.I went home and cried my phone wouldnt stop ringing because I had told 15 people I was taking it that day and all 15 people were calling to see if I passed that night.I was and still is sick I keep trying to forget the 1st test but I cant forget how I sat there for 4 hours only to fail.Im preparing myself for my next test Dec 2013.I decided not to tell anyone this time,because I will feel so dumb if I failed again.I promised myself if I failed this time I wont let it get to me like it did the 1st exam.I refuse to let my 13 year old son see me like that again.Im praying more,doing more questions and getting alot of advice form off this website so lets pray for each other and believe in our hearts that we can do it
