I don't have a copy of the new application pack. the format has changed but i think then contents are the same. i emailed them to you. thanks!

It depends on where you are currently assigned. :) They usually give situations that you may have encountered in your area.

Congratulations, MjPink!

I would say Chief Nurse but she needs to explain it in the form why she is the one filling it up.

Sent the announcement to those who requested but I am not sure if it still is valid. I've heard that they're starting to fill out forms now. I'm not really sure. Can anybody confirm?

I sent it to your email, Sir.

Hi @KeyBean, Can you please tell me when they charged the payment to your credit card? Like you, I am still waiting for the application pack.

you're welcome. :) god bless you on your exam. -acissej

Suzanne4 recommends the latest one but I know a lot of people still use the 3rd edition. I believe it's fine :) but here are the new things in the latest edition: * The review is based on the new NCLEX-RN test plan, effective April 2007. * Now in full color - with over 100 illustrations to enhance important nursing content. * 200 more questions have been added, for a total of 4,210. * Includes the new chart/exhibit alternate item format, in addition to questions with audio components. * Companion CD-ROM uses a pre-diagnostic exam to generate an individualized study plan. God bless! :)

Hi teah7! :) Many here recommend Saunders Comprehensive Review for the NCLEX-RN® Examination -- the latest edition :) It is also the book that was used for Suzanne's Plan. I also used it myself. I pray that you'll pass this time :) God bless!

True :) Thank you Lord!

After a few weeks of waiting, I finally got the result of the exam that I took last May 30. I really feel happy because I know that He is working in me whether I am faithful or not. His goodness in my life never fails and I just can't help but share it to everyone who will take major and costly exams like NCLEX and IELTS. Let me just share these 5 things that I learned from taking the English exam. Call these practical or spiritual but these are the things that God has taught me. If this will bring you enlightenment, then all the glory goes to the Lord. He is the author of everything that is good within me. 5. A test taker's performance in an exam does not depend on review centers. I am not trying to discourage people from enrolling in review centers to help them nail an exam. What I learned from this experience is that we can never depend on what we have or what do not have. If you have the resources, then by all means enroll yourself in a reputable review center. But never forget that it's HIM who guides you in the right way that you should go-- before, during and after the exam. I took my IELTS and NCLEX without any reviewer who helped me. All I know is that when you ask, He will answer. Keep the faith and do not forget that it is Him that we should depend on in whatever that we want to accomplish. Keep Him first and He will honor your efforts, with or without a review center. 4. When taking an exam in a place that's airconditioned, it's good to bring a sweater, if allowed to do so. One of the things that I hated during my IELTS exam was the room's temperature. It was really freezing in Marriott but thankfully, the staff in the hotel was sensitive enough to lower it in the later part of the exam. Praise GOD! 3. There are books that are simply nicknamed "heaven sent". My sister sent me a couple of books to help me with my review. One was entitled IELTS TESTBUILDER. The moment I answered the first few chapters, I knew that it was perfect for me. I answered everything in the book and even bought the 2nd part of it which was sold in National Bookstore for 600 pesos. It was really worth it. I was also surprised when a friend of mine, who was reviewing somewhere, told me that it's the book that was being used in her review center. Indeed, during the exam, I felt that I was just sitting at home practicing using the said book. It was really sent from heaven. God really knows my needs. 2. When you ask, be specific. Before I took the exam, I sincerely asked God to give me 8 as a band score. For those who are not familiar, the highest is 9 (expert user) and 8 is considered as Very Good User. I know well that I do not deserve it but I also know that with Him, all things are possible. Honestly, I really did not spend too much time reviewing. I just answered two books with less than 180 pages each. Those books look relatively thin and yes, the letters there are huge. So, I prayed and brushed the worries aside. I did my best for Him and I know that He made a miracle out of those times that I have reviewed. He answered my prayer indeed with a lot of other surprises. I got an average of 8. I got 9 in one part of the exam (Listening) and 7.5 was my lowest (Speaking). I got 8 for both Writing and Reading. 1. Give the glory to God in all your success. There's a song that caught my attention lately. It simply said "I'M ALLOWED TO LIVE TO MAKE MY MAKER SMILE." Indeed, He smiles everytime we give back to Him the praise and glory that He deserves. No matter how imperfect we are, we are capable of drawing a smile in His face and He delights in those things. There are a lot of reasons to believe that all our victories are fought by Him. First of all, we know well that anything can go wrong in an exam. It could be an instruction that you missed to follow or a material that you are completely unfamiliar with. So, when you get what you've asked for, don't forget to let the world know of His greatness in your life, though most of the time, we know that those are undeserved blessings. May the God of Grace bless those who are about to take any exam. Always remember, He's not deaf to hear your plea. Jesus is good, all the time!

With the faith that you have, He will surely help you. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. GOD bless you :) Thanks for sharing.

Thanks everyone.. :) I just gave back what He and this forum had given me. I pray for everyone who will take the exam. He never promised a smooth journey but it will be worthwhile in the end :) God bless you guys!

:dancgrp: This calls for a celebration!!!!!! :) Congratulations! PRAISE GOD!

congratulations again! and amen to what you've said. behold, the eye of the lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; -psalm 33:18 keep the faith and be blessed :)

Hi Saint 637! I would have to say that both helped me. I concentrated on content review during the first few weeks. But I still did a little practice by answering a few questions everyday. During the last few weeks of my review, I focused on answering NCLEX type questions. So I wouldn't have done it if one of the two was missing. And of course, let me add that I prayed a lot for guidance and wisdom. God bless you on your retake

It's good to be back in this thread. Congratulations Jobimol!!!! God is great indeed! :)

don't give up and don't be too hard on yourself. there's no official result yet. silverdragon is right. just hang on :)

hi rumba01! during the first few weeks, i focused on content review but i did a little practicing too. we may have a different style. what worked for me may not work for you. but definitely, it would really help if you already know your content well so that when you practice answering questions, things won't too hard for you anymore. god bless! :heartbeat

Hi Chengzz! I am also reviewing now for IELTS. I'll take it next month, most likely. I am going to do a self-review again. I'll apply the same principles: Pray and Study :) As what you've said, nothing is impossible with Him. Congratulations!

Wow! What a testimony! :) Thanks for sharing. Congratulations!!! God is good indeed!

Thanks!!!:redbeathe I checked mine using NCLEX® Quick Results Service. What's her state? :) Information about NCLEX® Quick Results Service: https://www.ncsbn.org/496.htm I got my unofficial result on Feb 08 :) I checked Vermont's site on the last week of Feb and I got my license number there. God bless!

Hi Shanti! Thanks! Are you asking about the things that you need to prepare for during the exam day? Or are you asking about the procedure in scheduling for an exam? :)
