Sorry, I just read your thread. I am a DTCC grad. I did the LPN in '08 and then did the LPN-RN transition program. I graduated in '11 as an RN. The program is tough but durable. You can do it if you put your mind to it and work hard at it. DTCC is one of the best community colleges in NC. Employers will take DTCC grads over some university grads. Good luck to you. I have tons of books and notes. Inbox me if you have any questions or if you need help. Good luck and say hi to dr. Ayres.

Don't give up. I passed my nclex-rn after 2 attempts, which seem 3 was the charm. It doesn't work all the time tho with 3 being the charm. But anyways, I graduated in '08 as and LPN and passed nclex-PN with 85 qts on first attempt. I went back to school in '10 and graduated from the LPN-RN transition program in '11 at a community college in NC where I live. By the way it's a 3 semesters program which starts in Aug. and ends in Dec. without the summer semester. Due to the high # of drop-outs in summer, the sch decided to take summer out of the curriculum for only those doing nsg, all others went to sch doing the summer semester. To cut long story short, I took nclex-rn 2 wks after graduation because I thought as an LPN, I wouldn't find it difficult. With 75 qts, I failed. I took it again after 45 plus days failing again at 251 qts, this time running out of time. Because I thought I went too fast the first time, and friends and family saying the same thing, I went slowly the 2nd time reading into the qts. The 1st time, no study materials, only my brain. the 2nd time, I used the 3500 qts CD, Kaplan q&A CD, Davis Q&A CD and other sources, yet, another failed. A friend of mine send some resources from this site so I created an account and found this 35 page study guide with SPIDERMAN for infection control and other mnemonics here that was really helpful. I was on this site pretty much every day finding as much help as I could. Somebody on here posted this book below and how it helped him/her. I went right away and ordered mine. Pls get it if you can. This is a must have book. After going thru this book, I took nclex-rn the 3rd time and passed at 75 qts. I also bought the LA Charity book along with this book and did 500 Qts per day. I took off 2 wks from work to do this and I am so gald I did. I passed boards in March '12 and currently working as an RN in a psych hospital. P.S A friend of mine has been taking nclex-rn for 3yrs and couldn't pass. Shame and embarrass, he gave up. I lent him this book with the LA Charity book and told him to read every page in these books and to continue to do qts as well. Today, He owes his success to me and can't stop thanking me and telling friends and families how I blessed him. He passed nclex-rn this past June. I only wrote this story to tell you that there's light at the end of the tunnel. Don't give up. You've done so much to give up now. Trust me, when it's all said and done, your life will be transformed. You can do it. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

If the CC page comes up after you tried to reregister, that's not a good sign.

Sorry to hear this. Take time off to let it all out and then get back to studying again. Good luck. You will do well next time.

Yes it means within a 48hrs period. I am in NC and took mine on 5/14/12 at 8 Am. Quick results were up on 5/16/12 at abt 9 Am. Ppl were telling me to wait and check the board's website, sometimes that doesn't help either because my license # wasn't posted until 11 days later after my quick results. I was still panicking eventhough I did the quick results and passed, I thot it was a mistake so I kept checking on a daily basis. On day 10th after my quick results, I emailed the NCBON to find out why my # wasn't up yet. They said I was missing a document. I asked which document? The lady said check where you verify documents to see what you are missing. I said ma'am, I know Pearsonvue will not send you an ATT until you complete your documents and payment. She said well you are right. Then I said so why the delay? She said well let me look at your file again then I'll call u back. Well, she did not call back either. Next day I got an email from the board apologizing for the delay saying it was their fault and informing me that my license # was up. When I checked, it was surely up. It was a nightmare. Hope by this time tomorrow, u will find out u pass. Good luck to u.

Just keep checkn on the baord's website. gud luck to u.

Congrats and welcome on board.

Pay the 75 for your BON and the 200 to pearsonvue. You don't need to summit any other document again. The waiting period is 45 days in some states while other states have a 90 days waiting period to retake. Good luck on your next take.

Congrats. Welcome on board.

Sorry to hear your story, but pls don't give up. There's light at the end of the tunnel. You will pass nclex.

Congrats!!!:yelclap:

Congrats. I am a firm believer in the PVT. It worked for me when I took it and passed on 3 tries too. First 2, CC page, 3rd GPU msg.

Congrat. yes it does work.

Congrat. I was in the same boat with you. Passed on 3rd attempt as well. Time to party huh?

sorry to hear that. Take few days off to rest and recuperate. Then get right back on track again with the study. I failed mine twice but just passed May 14th on 3rd attempt. You can do it. The first 2 attempts, I got the CC page. The 3rd, I got the GPU. The 2nd time I got the CC page, I didn't even bother to do the quick results cause I knew I failed. I say register ASAP when the money becomes available. Good luck to you.
