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!

Thank You Jessica!!! I had 265 questions my first time and I used the 6 hours. I have PTSD With that exam!! I bought the 3 weeks NCSBN but I have no time yo Go Over all the content, I just read the first two. So, I started doing practice questions from them, so far I'm scoring 50-70%, but those questions are hard. Your experience gave me hope for this time. And Congratulations again!!! Hard work pays off!!! ðŸ‘ðŸ‘

Thank you! I found that the more practiced the more I learned. Brush up on the content you are weak and just answer as many questions as you can. I'm glad I could give you some hope. Something I always kept in mind was Jeremiah 29:11
good luck to you!
