HNS12

Fyi..Its on the state board of reg. nursing that the program is acc. in CA!

I felt the same when i realized i didnt pass..im not use to failing esp. school work or tests. that was def the first time and i did not take it well at all..i totally understand. But honestly its just a test whether u take it once twice or three times, all u have to do is to make sure u dont stop trying..not everyone is going to pass everything the first time, what might be easy or hard for one person might be completely different for someone else. I keep telling myself that everyday..lol. Try the kaplan review also, its worth the money i think.

I know exactly what u mean. I did the same..plus people dont understand unless they have been where u have! Have u thought about when ur going to test again? Im just wondering what i would do if i dont pass it the 2nd time! Lol. I really dont want to go through that again!

I hope so. Lol, i did the same, i had to close mine and ignore peoples calls or txts cause they kept wanting to know how i did on the exam. Good luck.

Thanx for the tips, i will def. try them as i study/test. I hope that u passed.

I will try the pills if i have trouble sleeping at nights, i picked up yoga and its also helping me as well. People def. stressed me out about the exam prior to taking it too. I also took the kaplan review and i am doing that right now, its helping with the studying but i hope it help bring my anxiety level down as well.

I was always anxious when taking tests in nursing school, even though i did well in most them and kept a 3.0 or higher GPA but never to the level of panicking like it did during nclex, never anxious in clinical setting though. First time i had to experience that. I got anti anxiety medication prescribed but i def. dont wana be on them i just want to solve it without meds :/ Yea i didnt sleep well at all either, after i took the test i realized how much i was lacking on sleep and how exhausted i was! When i started to sleep 8 hrs a night afterwards i felt better. I was in complete shock that i let my anxiety level get to me during the test! I cant recall if the test was hard that i didnt pass or b/c i was so anxious that i couldnt understand the questions..b/c certain people in my class passed the nclex but barely passed the program with a C!!!??!!

Any suggestions about taking the nclex for the second time? I was SOO anxious & stressed out during my exam the first time i took it that i had a panic attack, wasnt able to read the questions right, and didnt even end up finishing the test.. i ran out of time because i paused and thought about each question wayyyy too much!!!!??!!! Im studying again even though i studied a lot the first time i took it, but im wondering if its anxiety level that i need to control??!!!! Am i the only one or can anyone relate?
