You can tell the tech "Please let that patient know I'll be in there or get their nurse when I'm finished doing my med pass" Your patient that you're with at that moment is priority and it's a med error waiting to happen because what if you rush givi...

You don't need UWorld to practice for the NCLEX. Reason there is a bunch of NCLEX resources is so students have different ways on how to prepare according to their needs. I've used Saunders/NCSBN, UWorld/Saunders and the last attempt I used Hurst Rev...

Congrats! It's okay that you went the whole 205 questions. I failed at 85 and passed on 205. I used Hurst Review because UWorld I felt doesn't work unless you understand the content within the rationales and that you are strong in content in my opini...

By now you probably have gotten your results or at least found out. I'm in Cali also I took my NCLEX PN back on September 4th and found out about a week later that I passed. I paid my license fee that Friday September 14th and got my license on the B...

After reading a lot of the comments and what people keeps in their nursing work bag gives me ideas of what I want to carry in my nursing work bag. It's not weird for male nurses to have a messenger bag right? haha. Anyways, I've decided to ditch the ...

PearsonVue I believe sends the results to the Board of Processing who then sends the letters out. Really weird that you haven't received anything yet because by the 3rd week you should of at least known.

There's all sorts of NCLEX test banks which give practice with NCLEX style questions. Is there any particular NCLEX test bank you're talking about? Unless you are talking about the NCLEX practice test on NCLEX | NCSBN ?

Don't lose hope at all

The BVNPT is slowly processing as of this week results from Nov.19th and they are probably backed up plus it's the holidays and the end of the year. I would continue to wait until you get that official letter in the mail stating that you have met the...

I would strongly suggest investing a refresher course because being out of college for 3 years is a long time and being that you've taken the NCLEX 4 times and have failed each time your best bet is to invest in a course review course. Your last reso...

You're welcome. I would really consider it. I'm sure there are other review courses you can use to prepare you for another attempt at the nclex

I've been in your situation. I failed the NCLEX PN twice before passing the exam the third attempt. After failing the second time using UWorld I decided to go with a review course like Hurst. Let me tell you that Hurst changed the way I thought and h...

Congratulations mic_imai. You're welcome. If I had passed the first attempt I wouldn't have been able to share my journey and inspire others.

I hesitated on checking my BreEZe account lol after I took mine.

Not really sure. I would give it a few more days. Then check again. All I know was is I got my letter in the mail a week after I took the exam saying I met the requirements and passed. Also depends when the NCSBN sends in the results from your exam. ...

If you want to look at something to review look at the strategies in Hurst. Then nothing at all after that. You should be well prepared being that you did both Hurst and UWorld. I passed my NCLEX PN on the third try using only Hurst. And my scores fo...

I would review Cultural and Religious considerations again. Since you're scoring well on Mosby's and Exam Cram you would be good to go. You won't ever feel ready for the exam you just have to believe in yourself. I used Hurst when I was studying for ...

Don't lose hope because of the PVT. It's not 99.9% accurate. Actually if you feel horrible it's probably a good sign. I know the effort put in passing the NCLEX PN. I did it myself before finally passing the exam on the third attempt. If you do fail,...

I would consider Hurst for content, strategies, and questions there's a reason why Hurst is a popular NCLEX Prep Course. When I was studying I began to understand "why" I was selecting an answer. The NCLEX itself is going to appear like it's all over...

You can try the PVT after you get an email saying that you completed the NCLEX. The CPR is not emailed to you instead it's mailed to you 3-4 weeks from you test date.

Since you've used UWorld, Saunders and Lippincott's and still not successful. I suggest you look into study material that gives you a review on core content such as Hurst. I used it for my NCLEX PN and even though I went the whole 205 questions and p...

Thank you. It's very common for people not to feel confident after taking it. I didn't feel too confident honestly when I went the whole 205 questions I kept thinking about it because it is different then any other exam you've taken in LPN school. Ve...

I took my NCLEX PN back on September 4th and found out about a week after that I passed. For California, the NCLEX PN results take about a minimum of 3-4 weeks to be mailed out. I took for the third time and went the whole 205 questions. All in all, ...

Thanks for correcting me.

If you plan on practicing in Washington then you should test there. Florida is a compact state meaning that you once you get a license there you can practice at other NLC states. Washington is not a NLC state so if you test in Florida you will have t...
