Published

After 2 degrees and 2 yrs out of school and 5 tries I FINALLY passed the NCLEX!! All I can say is KAPLAN and HURST review are the best!! Especially Kaplan!! If you are not successful with Kaplan on the first try, use it again and continue practicing with the questions and STUDY STUDY STUDY with the course book. Even with a full time job, I would study for atleast 3 hrs after work everyday and longer on weekends. I would not have passed without it!! I never gave up and neither should you. Hard work ALWAYS pays off. It is possible even while working. You have to commit and focus and remember your end goal. It's sooo good to call myself an RN...AMEN!!:):nurse:
