i'm so sorry to hear your news:crying2: i know it's hard not to get discouraged when you fail, but let me tell you... there is no exam in the world that define you as a person. from our conversations i know that you are kind and caring - those qualities are more important for the nurse then all the knowledge in the world. all exams are lotteries in a way... you are near the passing standards - that means you are almost there. one more try - and you'll get the license:up: i wish you luck. please, don't be hard on yourself - have some rest and get some pampering. you need it now!
I can feel your pain. For me - it was impossible to relax. Some things that somehow helped - watching a good movie, yoga!!!, meditation (I used CD from the time I gave birth to my son:bugeyes:), reading a book (I finally read "the kite runner") and cooking. Getting busy with something you really enjoy. Good luck!:nuke:
Please, don't give up! My friends took the test 1 and 2 days after me. Both of them got their license #s 2-3 days after the test (we are in CA and tested in the SAME center, graduated from the same school!). I just found this morning that I PASSED! For some reason BRN processes my license longer. I tested May 12 - got the number on May 22. I called BRN - my file was complete! Just some clerks work slower then others:nono: Don't give up and good luck to you and all others who are still waiting:uhoh21:
