Pinoy nclex takers

[luke21]

Hi there! I'm from the Philippines and migrated here in the US short after graduation and passing the local boards. I failed my first nclex-rn exam and I'm currently reviewing to take it again soon. I wish to hear from our fellow "kababayans" who share the same experience with me. My prayers for success to all of us who are preparing for the nclex! Good luck! :):):)

Yes, it really works! Goodluck!!!

Does the pvt really works??? I just took the exam today.. this is my second time and i got a good pop up.. im still nervous hope it works for me too...

I did it twice already..

Good luck guys! I graduated in the PI but I live in Cali, took the exam for the first time last Thursday twas really hard. My computer shut off at 75 and I felt that I failed. I wasn't able to study the Nursing contents because it was so hard for me to focus on my studies/review.

Anyways, I tried the PVT and got the good pop up. Still waiting for the official result though. My advice is that, read La Charity's book, be familiar with Spiderman, Mrs. Wee, etc. Take your time in answering those questions and always Pray. Ask for his guidance and don't forget to thank HIM for every blessing he has given you.
