  1. hello all, i have questions regarding joining the navy nurse corps. i graduated from a CCNE certified BSN program in san diego back in july. i have not received my RN license as of yet, but have interest in joining the navy nurse corps. does anyone k...
  2. 3rd time, no success

    after a grueling 3 week wait, i got the dreaded big envelope today. folks/peers/colleagues, please pray for me that i make it the 4th time around? i am going to give suzannes plan a try and hopefully i will become the RN i have always wanted to be. t...
  3. dear all, finally after a couple attempts, i beat the NCLEX! i sat on may 5, with 7 SATA, 6 med calculations, 7 meds, assessment questions and a LOT of priority and delegation questions. after 2 hours and 75 questions later, the computer shut off! un...
  4. Pretty sure I failed at 75

    it wouldn't be fair to yourself to ASSUME that you failed. it feels like that every time. the NCLEX is not a clear cut and paste pass or fail. everyone i know (including myself) have felt the way you felt. my advice to you is to just take a break, do...
  5. I dont know if I can go on...

    meme, trust me i know how you're feeling. let's just say i have taken the test more than twice. i took it for the fourth time today. i know it's hard to hear this, but do NOT be discouraged. the NCLEX is a very hard test that analyzes your critical ...
  6. May Nclex takers...come and join hands...

    okay everybody, i'm up to bat on may 5th for the 4th time. i feel confident that i will pass this time, but a little support and prayer wouldn't hurt! i've been using suzannes plan, and hopefully that will get me through it this time!!!! good luck an...
  7. hello all, when looking at your NCLEX analysis after a failed result, does every section have to be above passing standard or can a candidate pass with some areas at near passing? i ask because i had 2 sections above passing standard, one below, and ...
  8. 3rd time, no success

    christina7997, you are not the only one. i know i shouldn't be comparing myself to others because i am me and they are them, but it hurts to see your peers/colleagues nailing it the 1st time around while others take it X amount of times. i am hoping ...
  9. ABSN vs. BSN

    if you have a choice, i would advise you to go the traditional route. i went through an accelerated program, and felt myself "rushed" through the whole experience. i had no choice, as doing the accelerated route was my last and only option. clinical ...
  10. I am about to give up

    blkbutterfly, if nursing truly is your passion, then do not give it up! keep pushing until you get in there. i will give you my testimony about the hardships i faced to get to nursing school: i attended san diego state university in hopes of getting ...
  11. 3rd time, no success

    Thank you very much for you insight as to suzannes plan katchik! i started the plan today and will be confident that it works!
  12. 3rd time, no success

    actually i'm going to try suzannes plan. unfortunately, funds are really short right now, so i'm going to give suzannes plan full throttle!
  13. test scores..pass or....

    i totally agree with you on that. i felt so confident in most of the questions, but at the same time, knew that i had a lot of them as "educated guesses". what's good for you though is that you took it yesterday and have hopes of your name showing up...
  14. test scores..pass or....

    NCLEX-RN taken: 1. july 6, 2007: 75-F 2. oct 9, 2007: 188-F 3. dec 11, 2007: 192-still waiting confidence really starts to dwindle down and keeping hope is somewhat hard, but we must keep on trying.
  15. Preparing for NCLEXRN

    i personally have gone through NCSBN learning extension the first time. didn't seem to help me out so much as i failed with 75 questions. second time around, i used the kaplan review. it broadened my knowledge base and got me up to 188 questions, but...
  16. December Test Takers Support Group

    Good luck to all and my prayers are with you! i recently took it dec. 11 and am still waiting for results. please pray for me and wish me luck, it's my 3rd time...i try to stay positive but that lingering feeling of failure seems to pop in and out ev...
  17. Hello all, I have a question regarding NCLEX-RN test results. My friend and I took the California NCLEX on Dec. 11, and his name showed up on the BRN website while mine didn't. Is that a reliable sign that I didn't pass? would there be any reason why...
  18. I finally passed on my 4th try!!!

    congratulations on passing! i know exactly how you feel. i took the exam for the third time on tuesday dec. 11. it's been 4 days and my name still hasn't shown up on the Ca board website. What makes it more frustrating is that a friend of mine took i...
