It's possible! If you have any questions or need any help LMK. I was a PCA for years after I failed the NCLEX, then after 8 years I retook it and
Firstly, I would like to start by saying THANK YOU for this website. It has truly helped me.
Secondly, this is NOT for the ones who want to know studying material. This is for the bruised egos...
@Patricia Chapman
OK! So an awesome GEM that I found out through this great community is that someone said that you could take the NCLEX in any state regardless of the state you're trying to...
@Patricia ChapmanHey Patricia!
Firstly, I would like to say thank you so much for sharing your story! It takes such bravery to be this honest and vulnerable.

I'm mostly writing this to blow off steam and I am definitely open to advice.
I have been working in the ED as a tech for a private NYC hospital (big org) for almost 3 years. I passed my RN...
Lmaoo no it doesn't come off wrong at all, I love you too! Of course no problem! This hospital's ADN and CNO saw my value and extended grace and a chance as a new nurse. So of course I gotta pay it...
Hey! First off congrats! Secondly, no matter where you work as a nurse you will always still be considered a nurse. It's a myth to think that you gotta be in med-surg. I actually have a job now, it's...

Of course! I purchased the nursing.com app. I think I bought it 2x bc I had it for like 2 years BUT I didn't start using it until the last week of Aug 2020 and my exam date was Oct 31, 2020. Great app...
@ejmoon7845
Then you may need to travel to NY, Cali, PA, or NJ. This isn't bad bc at least you can still take the exam again, and surprisingly! Finding a place to take refresher courses is pretty...
@Rose_Queen Thank you so much for the clarification!
@ejmoon7845 COOL! Now with Michigan out the way, all is certainly not lost because you said all that needed to be said. You "WORKED TOO HARD...
@michellet123
I 100% understand how you're feeling. Let's see if we can focus this another way. Hearing that you failed 4 times shows that your state allows you more chances, so its not...
@JOWI75
Firstly thank you for being very honest that's not always easy. I know exactly how you're feeling when you say you keep extending the date bc you don't feel ready. It's honestly...
I hope it's alright, but I wanted to post what I wrote to you here in hopes that if another lovely, hard-working nurse comes to your page with discouragement and feels lost I hope it finds them too ?...
@Sara Lindsey Wilkerson hey sara! how are you doing? how are you feeling? I really hope you're still on this journey (even if you need to pause and then come back) you're a wonderful soul and you are...

OMG YES DO NOT GIVE UP! Find other options. It might be a little harder and a little longer journey but I assure you its nowhere close to being as hard as your nursing school. I agree...
Good Morning @xuichloe !!
