hello everyone, i haven't posted here in a while, even though i was always on reading posts. i took my nclex on friday, march 13th. i had switched my date to the middle of april so i could do suzanne's plan...then i decided i didn't want to wait that long, so i switched my date back to march. i didn't do a ton of studying :down:, which i couldn't understand why i was slacking so badly when i already failed the exam twice. well a few days before the exam, i took all the qtrainer tests and listened to kaplan test taking strategies tape. i wasn't nervous at all going to the exam. i couldn't believe when the computer shut off at 127 questions. first time i had all 265, second time 75, i obviously failed miserably. i saw my results were ready at 9:30 this morning. my hands were trembling as i put my credit card number in, i covered my eyes, i was literally afraid to look. when i saw the words pass, i was screaming and crying :bow:all at the same time. i was shocked. so i called everyone i know, my husband was even crying and was working out at the gym, came home with a huge bunch of flowers :loveya:for me. i have signed back in to pearson vue website 14 times today...i just cant stop looking at the words "pass". so for everyone out there that is a multiple test taker, it is possible to pass this exam. i walked out of the center not knowing what to think....i still can't believe it...i have been writing the initials rn :clphnds:after my name...it doesn't seem real, i keep thinking i am dreaming...good luck to everyone who was in the same boat as i was...i am proof, it can be done....you can do it...believe in yourself and you will succeed!!!!! :dancgrp:

I am telling you, if I can PASS, anyone can pass. I was starting to give up hope after the 2nd fail. Then I sat and thought about it, I worked so long and so hard for this, I will never give up. Keep going, you will come out on top. I still to this day, can't believe I even graduated from nursing school, let alone, pass the NCLEX. Have faith in yourself, you will do this!!!! I still can't believe it, do you know I have signed on to Pearson Vue numerous times each day, I keep looking at those words "pass", can't beat this feeling!!!!! :yeah::redpinkhe

Best of luck to you, let us know when you PASS!!!!! :nurse:
