Passed NCLEX!

I promised myself and God I would share my testimony after I passed NCLEX so here it is...

I graduated June 2014, almost a year late. I took boards the first time in October, I didn't study because I thoight either you have it or you don't. Guess what? I didn't have it the test cut off at 83. Second time I took hurst review and I felt more confident, but I still didn't pass with 265 questions. I was broken and I honestly wanted to give up. I was embarrassed, I lost my job offer, and I was just sad. Not as if I wasn't beating myself up enough, I had to deal with others say "maybe you should do something else." I'm thankful for those statements now because it gave me just the motivation to push forward.

Third time- Most importantly I prayed for understanding and knowledge of what I was I was studying. Also for strength! I purchased the lippincotts Q&A review and started doing a section out it every night. I then purchased NCSBN 3wk review. It was awesome. I reviewed the content and then did the questions along with the lippincotts every day! I made notes and made sure I read the rationales. I finally began to get a clear understanding. So I took NCLEX for the 3rd time on March 19 it cut off at 75. For me it was easy this go round. I found out the next morning I passed when I saw I had an active license!!

Please dont give up no matter what and always keep God first and everything will fall into place!

Jessica, RN

    Congrats! I take my 2nd attempt on Wednesday. My first time around I used Hurst and very little of Kaplan and ended at 265. I focused on a lot of material and whatever questions Hurst gives you. I'm really anxious about retaking!! Though no one is ever "ready" to take NCLEX. Congrats, again!

    Thank you! Good Luck! I did the same thing for my second time burst and their questions. Third time I focused more so on questions and how to answer them!

    Yes, I found the questions very similar. When I say down I was like this is almost too easy. I definitely think it made a huge difference. My nerves were bad too, but pray for peace and to remove the anxiety. Good Luck!

    Thank you so much! I promised I would share my story, I've struggled this so much and I just want to let someone know it may not be easy but never give up! Through Christ all things are possible.
