2nd attempt today!

Published

Well, today I just took my 2nd try at the NCLEX. My first try in October I failed miserably with 75 questions.... I don't remember much of that day...

but today it has been exactly 45 days since... I went in there and felt very confident... the exam seemed not easy but, like I could figure it out.. I got to question 75 and I told myself "please do not cut off please" and it cut off... I was so upset because I wanted the computer to give me more! I am so petrified since I failed with 75!

I studied with the NSCBN I think is how you correctly spell it... I did their entire Qbank and went threw some lessons. I then did almost all the Kaplan Qbank along with the entire lacharity book besides the case studies. i did 150 Kaplan Q's a day... I guess well over 2800 questions.

I made 11 pages of notes on things I didn't know/would be good to remember and read them almost everyday... but when I took the NCLEX today it just... seemed weird... I got a bit of SATA. There's was a point where I got 2-3 back to back... one ECG I know for a fact I got right... one drag that I wasn't too sure about... anyway now I'm just at a loss... I'm really scared I completely bombed it again!

There's just no way I did really well in my mind.... and as regards to the PVT I did it The first time around and got the bad pop up.. so I will wait this time and check the KBN in the morning..... I don't know what to do if I failed... as there's a strong possibility I did...

Why wait do the trick have an answer and know if you can start applying for a RN position or if you have to retest. The main thing is don't lose focus or give up the wife and I both had different number of questions and we both thought we failed but we didn't. Now go check it out and relax tonight either way.

I I'll defiantly not give up. I prayed to god everyday. And several times today.

Ill post in 48 hours the results. Hopefully they are good results. I really want to start my career. Not many people can say they do something that they love. I'll be happy to say that.

Omg! I found out today at work that I PASSED!!!!!! With 75! I could not believe my eyes! I bawled like a baby!!!!! My life spun in a million miles in seconds infront of me. I could not believe this. My friend that's an RN for 10 years she huged and cried wit me. It was the greatest moment of my life.

I later did the PVT after an hour and it indeed said the good pop up! I really could not believe it.

I thank god today for all he's done. I honeslty believe I wouldn't have made it without him. It was as if he was with me sitting on a chair while I took the test.

I am at such peace with myself.

I feel amazing. If I can do this... anyone can. Specially with faith and hope.
