i have a question. I found my name on the BON website but i checked pearsonvue today and status is still " delivery successful". Isn't it suppose to be pass or is it just slow?

cebuana_nurse, no. im from cali

first of all, i believe in this trick b/c i PASSED!!!!! saw my name on BON today in cali. I believe this 'trick' takes A LOT Of anxienty off your shoulders. I think that that trick didn't work for some b/c they either did it wrong or got the wrong message. PLEASE read the first page of the thread. it tells you step by step how to do this trick.

Wanted to let all you guys know that I PASSED!! :chuckleOfficially an RN baby!!Now I want to share how I studied. Some of this may be repeated by other posters so I apologize in advance. First of all, I took Kaplan. It seemed like a sure thing to me. BUT you must put the effort into it. Kaplan is nothing if you do not put in your share. So when I started going to the classes, I realize I lacked A LOT of things especially content. I felt very depressed. So I started doing the content they have of each section. Each day I would do one and take notes that I ended up not reading again but I think it's good to just write information down. Throughout this time, I did not do ANY Q bank b/c I wanted to save it for last. At night I ready Lacharity book all the chapters except last 3 and cases. I also read Kaplan strategy. The only reason I read it was because I bought it but it was no point b/c I already had the Kaplan package. So 2 weeks b/f the exam, I did 2 sets of Q bank (50q) each day and read the rationals. Then took a break and then at night I read lacharity (1 chapter). If I wasn't tired I read random info that I gathered online such as those on this site. Honestly, I didn't study like crazy. The key is to study in a balance. I read the rationales which I thought was the most time consuming and the difficult part. I also eat healthy. That means fruits and not too much junk food. I thought that the Kaplan q were written very similar to Nclex. Also, I don't recommend buying a drug book I don't think it worth it. I did and I didn't even touch it. :zzzzz:down:The drugs given on the exam are so random. But don't take my words for it. the day b/f the exam, I DID study. I know many don't but I crammed. I think I was fine. I also did something nice for myself which made me feel good. I wanted thank everyone for their support and I hope that this help. Please feel free to pm me if you have any questions :wink2:

crux1024, I know what you mean. I had a "death" question that was so clueless. I was hoping it was about asian ritual... something i'm more knowledgeable about. i knew sleeping in during religion class would someday come to haunt me!!

thanks everybody. I hope everything goes well. I've been reading the pearsonvue trick thread and its somewhat of a whirlwind. i hope it is true b/c i've been checking the site for the pop up everyday!!!

Me vs. nclex I took my NCLEX today at 800 am today. I came to this exam not 100% certain I was fully prepared. I just knew I had waited too long to take the exam and it was time to go. I think I expected too much of myself. I heard stories from friends that they all passed with 75 q so I expected nothing less from myself. In the beginning I thought that the test was ok and that Kaplan had prepared me well. At q75 I was prepared to leave the center because I felt too assure of myself. I saw q76 and my heart just drop. I didn't understand. I wanted a bat or anything to break down my computer. I knew I was in this for the LONG haul. Raised my hand and had to go eat a snack b/c I was feeling hypoglycemic. Went to the bathroom and did a little prayer. I said that God will never leave me and I asked for his assistance till the end. I had faith. At the same time I was scared. Thoughts ran into my mind of what might happen if I didn't do well on this exam. Came question 150 and I wanted someone to either shoot me or just for my computer to explode. I felt frustrated and guilty for not studying enough. I thought I didn't study enough. If I knew the topic I couldn't find the answer. And vice versa. I wanted the answer choice "d" - I don't know. There we procedures I thought were made up. Half of the exam seemed as though it was written in Chinese. A lot of the questions were written as so: this patients undergoing exam creatksdjfpat, what do you expect to do? I felt that this exam was my battle against meds, the one thing I slacked off. What the heck is ldkfjldjf and sldkjflkdjf? Nclex is torturous. I felt hurtful that I made my family member drive in the wee dark night to this center. For what? Failure. I do not wish upon this feeling on anyone. Driving home, I was mortally depressed. Looked out the windowed and whispered that I still had faith and God will be with me. Prior to the exam, I told myself that I would not do the "pearsonvue trick" because I wanted to linger on the hopes that I might pass. Well......forget that. Temptation and anxiety got me doing the trick. Did all the procedure and popped this: "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled this exam. Please contact your Member Board for further assistance. Another registration cannot be made at this time." I honestly don't know if this tricked works. I question it since I wonder how could I have passed at 165 q with only 4 sata, 2 order and thousand meds and millions of priority q. sorry for the long story. Just venting. Will update. :wink2:
