Hello everyone! Just wanted to share my story since this platform seemed the only thing that gave me answers when I was lost and discouraged about trying to take the nclex again!
I graduated May 2016, it took forever to receive my ATT, most of my friends had already took the exam and I still hadn't even received my ATT. I took the exam November and failed for the first time with 162 questions! I used Kaplan and few other nursing books that I felt completely lost but decided that because my friends had passed with Kaplan it would be my case too! I was also dealing with personal stuff but still decided to take the exam!
January 2018 I decided I finally would commit to start studying again and so I started studying meds and diseases i felt most weak in. In March, I decided to purchase Uworld and stuck to only uworld doing questions and reading the rationales to both wrong and right and writing notes on things that seemed important or things I was unfamiliar with!
Fastforward to June 11, I took my exam and after 82 questions the computer shut off. I walked out of there with no feelings it felt so weird! I said a small prayer before walking out and then went to my car and just cried! I mean Cried lol Since it was my second attempt I was scared you literally walk out of there not knowing how to feel! I have heard a lot of Pearson Vue trick but didn't want to try it b cause that's how I found out I hadn't passed the first time before recieving my fail letter! So I waited 24 hours and then I logged onto ca breeze and my application no longer said pending! I was scared and started to cry again because the last attempt it also disappeared and then I failed so I thought I had failed again! However, I realized that only if it's your first time taking the time exam and Your application on CA BreEZe disappears it's very likely you failed! But if it's your 2nd attempt and it disappears then it doesn't necessarily mean you failed! After 48 hours at around 5:55am my license number was posted on ca breeze! Thank god! Just wanted to share my story because I got through it reading other peoples story on this platform.
please feel free to message me if you have any questions!
I hope everything turns out well for you! Just sty focused and if you added nursing school you also pass this exam! Stay dedicated and always stay positive.
