thanks guys

Just curious for my upcoming interview if they ask the question of how many times you took the NCLEX and do they have the right to ask? Can they find out how many times you took the NCLEX? IMO, it shouldnt matter because LICENSE is LICENSE.. THANKS

I took my first try and failed at 265 questions.. like everyone else here, i felt devastated and discourage... DONT BE...
