I was looking up unique looking resumes for format ideas and I liked the ones that have a picture of the candidate. But is that too much for a resume?

Graduated in 2006 and have taken NCLEX multiple times. Uworld: the one review that worked for me because I could read the rationales of both my incorrect and correct answers. The important think to do is remediation and make up exams from even your ...

I'm in California and took the NCLEX the week of Thanksgiving 2019 It took 17 days for my license to post on the Breeze website (however, I had a good PVT pop up at 24hrs after the exam.) I didn't know it at first, but California now participates in ...

I did Uworld exclusively too and was discouraged with my low scores. But the most important thing is to remediate and go back and make up tests of questions you got wrong. It's important to understand why you got them wrong and learn from them. Th...

I received a fail letter a couple of years ago with 2 subjects "above passing" and the rest "near passing" At the time, I had taken all 265 questions.

***Update*** Received license certificate on 12/23, nearly 4 weeks after taking the exam

I would use Uworld and just continue to do questions daily. Review the basic lab values and pharmacology. You can't possible recall everything but if you do questions daily it will keep your brain always working and critical thinking

I used UWorld, and my tests were low and ranged from '30-'60s. The most important thing to do is to remediate and make up tests from incorrect questions to ensure you are learning why you missed them. I kept thinking to myself (from a YouTube video I...

You are not alone! I have been there many times before and have tried all the review courses. What worked for me was Uworld because I could read the rationale of all my choices, even the ones I got correct. Don't give up! Take some time to re-group ...

I'm a dork, I didn't realize CA participated in quick results for NCLEX-RN ?

Congratulations! You mentioned you paid for quick results, but California does not offer that. I’m confused how you were able to get those results. I’ve been waiting 2 weeks for results too (after a good PVT pop up) and I’m anxiously waiting for any ...

I've often thought of this over the years. There are always the patients that were with you for months at a time and you feel close to the families. I feel like you really shouldn't "friend" patients while they are still in-house. Wait until they'v...

I figured we could all encourage each other as we count down to our exam

Took it in Cali on June 1st, received bad PVT pop up at 48 hours. Awaiting official mail results (usually takes a week to get the "did not pass" letter) I've tried many courses and this isn't my first exam. But my favorite has been the Uworld ques...

Took mine on June 1st in CA, waiting for results

Took my exam on 1/7/16, and did 75 questions (75th one was correct). Did the PVT on the 5th day after test and got the "bad pop-up" and received the confirmation letter that I failed 2 days later (exactly a week to the day I took the exam.)

congratulations!!!! I, too, have tried other popular review courses but haven't passed the nclex. I started using the Uworld questions and really think the rational helped me a lot.

Congratulations!!! I took mine Thursday and haven't received results. What state did you take it in? We don't have quick results in CA

I would seriously consider postponing your exam until you feel ready. I have taken all kinds of programs and read all the study books. I even paid for the NSBN questions. I took the exam on 1/7 and by far, the UWorld questions were the best prepar...

Sorry! There IS a rational explaining why the answer is correct. But I wish there was a rational for each of the other wrong answers on the same question to explain why those answers were incorrect. (Like Kaplan questions) It would help train your mi...

Thank you, loved the break down of what you did to prepare ?

It didn't help me. The answers to questions did not show rational for all the answers, just for the one correct answer. I think it would have helped me to process it better if I knew the rational for each possible answer for each question. The price...

You guys, I'm burnt and stumped. This is my 7th test and the first time I only took 75 questions. I did the PVT at 48 hours and got the bad pop-up. All the other tests I've had, I've taken all 265 questions. I've taken Kaplan, Lifesavers, NCSBN.......

It declined my card

Thanks, forevertravelin!
