Yes on the ATT it says test availability between certain dates. My ATT is valid for 90 days. I plan on doing questions. Thanks so much

Hello guys, wanted to write to vent a little. .... I graduated nursing school may of 13, and unlike the rest of my classmates decided to take some time to myself before taking nclex due to the crazy life I lived during nursing school with a toddler, a crazy boyfriend (at the time, now ex thank god lol), all while working three part time jobs, so of course I needed the break, although I did take Kaplan a week after graduation in which I wasn't really focused on because I was working a 11p to 7 a home care job and I would go right to class from work. So of course that wasn't my very successful. Well I have to say that was the biggest mistake of my life! As time went on all of my friends from school passed nclex, got jobs, and here I was lollygaggin. So three months after graduation I decided to take my nclex for the first time 2 days after my daughters 3rd birthday party. ... mistake, I just wasn't focused by any means at all, and suffer from ADD, but still decided to do it As you guys would imagine I took the test and got all 265 questions and did PVT sure enough I failed! I was devastated but had to brush myself off and try again. Gave myself a week and started studying I used Kaplan strategies, Saunders, and ncsbn review, I didn't study over board but definetly alot more then the first time. Took my test again in December I believe and once again failed with 248 questions, broken down once again FAILED , feeling like a failure, stupid, not competent I picked myself up and decided to retest again. I purchased Hurst review, and actually enjoyed the videos and the review all in all but because of the crazy job I worked, my daughter I had to take care of and sleeping during the day, I basically studied when I had the time which was majority of the Time being at work. This time around i had a different mentality i was less anxious, and just more confident. I took the test may 8th all 265 questions with my last being a SATA aboutt preventing UTI in children. I was super ecstatic cause I felt like I knew the answer answered my last question and left the testing Center calm but unsure of how I felt, which is unusual for myself cause I'm usually a nervous wreck. I got home and was super hesitant to check PVT for the third time because I was so afraid to be disappointed, but about 2 hours laterr I decided to check and I got a pop up that stated " The candidate already has a open registration for this exam, a new one can not be created at this time" I thought this was the "good pop up" so I yelled into my mom Omg i think I passed overwhelming with joy chills throughout my body. It felt so surreal. A friend of mine decided to take me to dinner and while I was at dinner I recieved a email from Nclex registration acknowledgement informing me that now that I have taken my boards is certain that I have questions go to this link to read FAQ etc which I Thought was very weird and strange cause I never recieved that before, so naturally I wanted to go back on my phone and check the PVT again, thinking I was still in the game and I would get the same message, I went thru the steps and hit next, and the ******* CREDIT CARD PAGE CAME UP AGAIN! I felt like my world came crashing down all at once, thinking how could god be so cruel to get my hopes up just to have me fail? I am flustered and don't know what to do. After reading other forums what I thought was the "good pop up" turned out to not b the one I recieved. What the heck was the pop up i did get? Why me? Has this happened to anyone else? Of course I refuse to give up cause this is my dream but I am a little discouraged, I don't know where to begin or what to do! Any suggestions? My ATT expires June 26th, my state requires 45 days Between test whichh makes me eligible again June 23rd, so needles to say I need to take this weekend off and start fresh on Monday, the problem is I just don't know with what and how. ppl please comment and help !!! Thanks

I feel u but don't give up!!! I haven't and I'm going on my fourth time and as discouraging as ever but I refuse to throw everything away. I graduated a year ago and Imb like the only one who had to take it so many times out of my class. All my class mates got the good pop up didn't hear of anyone who got bad Pop up and passed. If at first you don't succeed try try again!

I dunno how much more I can take .... This was my third time grrr

Mine switched and now I'm getting the credit card page =(

Have u tried logging back in??

So I just logged back on and I'm now getting the credit card page once again

Yes that's the good pop up which I recieved as well! The first two times i got the credit card page! ! Wait 24 hrs and go on your board of nursing and type your name in! Yay!!! So happy for us. Keep me updated and I'll do the same!

That's a good sign !!! Good luck. I'm procrastinating with doing the trick cause I'm nervous of the results lol

My test was at 8am. I'm home now after 4 and a half hours and 265 questions. I was a lot less anxious, more focused, and prepared but honestly I don't know how I feel about it. I suffer from ADD and I'm a terrible test taker. I had A LOT of priority questions like 3 or 4 rhythm strips a ton of select all that apply, like 5 five exhibits and two picture ones and a hand full of med questions. My last question was a select all that apply whichh I dunno if that's a good thing or bad . I'm nervous as ever to do the PVT because of the last two times. However, I've come to the conclusion if for some reason I didn't pass I'll just dust myself off, study a different way and take it again. I got through nursing school I will have R.N after my name if I have to take it 10 times I won't give up, because I know the capabilities I have of being the best nurse =) let me know how u made out and I'll keep u in my prayers!!

Hello, I am too taking my nclex tomorrow for not the first, or the second, but the third time!! I feel as tho the first two times I was super ANXIOUS and that got the best of my. This time I am super calm and keep telling myself that I have the knowledge to pass this test tomorrow! !! So occupy yourself today. Maybe some meditation u kno relaxation techniques etc. You are going to be fine! I will keep you in my thoughts! Just know your not alone . Good luck tomorrow.
