Hello, I want to hear feedback from anyone who has taken NCLEX several times and had difficulties. I will also like feedback from those who passed on the first try. I am taking NCLEX-PN for the 4th time in a few weeks and I'm praying that this time is the charm. What I'm using to study this time around is Hurst Review, NCLEX mastery app, and I often answer a few questions from other websites. This has really been a hard thing for me mainly because I went into taking the exam on the first try thinking Ok I passed nursing school I should be able to get through this test with no problem! WRONG!!!! I learned that I needed more help in content, medications and other areas. I feel this time around I'm more prepared but still I'm afraid that I will get in the exam and let my anxiety get the best of me like it has with testing before. What I want to know is how have you all handled stress when testing, getting restless during the exam, or even prepared? Thanks!

lab0117 did you ever get your results?

@ms12 my instructor decides which area we have clinical it's not up to the students at all, I attend the Allied Health Campus and we went to River Oaks, Brandon Courts nursing home, CMMC, and for our last clinical rotation coming up this fall we will go out to State Hospital and another facility that I'm not for sure of.

Thanks so much for the reply, my nerves have calmed down alot now that we ar through with this semester. I now have 2 more semesters so I hope to gain more knowledge and become more comfortable in what I do.

Hi everyone!!!! I am in my third semester of nursing at Hinds Allied Health Center for LPN. All I can say is wow!!! I often feel that sometimes nursing is for me and I want to quit the program but I do absolutely love caring for ppl. During clinical rotations I often find myself sometimes overwhelmed with passing out meds, doing paperwork, explaining the adverse/therapeutic effects of the drugs and the list goes on and on. What I want to know from my fellow nurses how did you cope with the many stresses and anxiety of nursing school, specifically during clinical. Lecture is fine I only have a hard time adjusting to clinical and as I know when I pass boards and start to work I need to be proficient in the many skills that I've learned. Someone please help me!!!!! Lol

I am also trying to apply for the ADN program. I was in the Lpn program on the Goodman campus and failed fundamentals by 2 points so Im reapplying for LPN and im applying for ADN. The program is so competitive that I am taking some classes this spring so that I may be accepted.

Has anyone attended the night and weekend program? I was accepted to the Rankin campus for the fall semester but I wanted to switch since I have a job and really need to work throughout school..

I am attending Holmes CC LPN in Goodman, this is my first semester and hopefully I will graduate next year. I am 22 years old and I have a 19 month old and this by far has been the hardest but I know it will be worth it in the end!

No I will send u a pm because I don't think we can post names..

This morning around 9 and u shouldn't worry because if u missed the call we're still receiving letters tomorrow..

Did you apply for the ACT scholarship already?

Yea I found out about it already.. I received my award letter last week.. Its split into I think 2500 a semester but I dont know if that will be enough since we have to pay for books in all, not including supplies we need so Im going to the Win Job Center to ask for some assistance..

I got a pell grant I hope it pays for everything..

Im so happy now I can stop puzzling my brain..

You said your last name starts with a B right? So we might be in the same group together because mine starts with a B also..
