Yes I did @awllynz

Hey @MadisonG thank you! Sure I will do pray for you. For everyone who will take the exam, I am including you in my prayers. God bless! Let me know what's the result.

Hey @yukonriver did you pass the exam? And I torally agree on what you said that the CAT knows your weakness because when they start knowing which part it is, they going to give you one after another one. And of course yea, we cannot get our license if we our not safe nurses that we could kill our patient. Best wishes to you!

@softrbreeze & @HydrocodoneAPAP thank you!

@piercen54, PhD its my pleasure to help.. welcome

@sdgdude wow! That's nice to know, kababayan! :) You know what, I was not even ready with my exam but I gotta take it regardless because my ATT expires on 10/10 so I was like come what may, what ever the result is, luckily and God's grace I passed! Yea I also did same thing, question and answers, read and understand the rationale, read more about topics that still I don't really understand, took down notes and everyday at least 10 lab values at the same time meds (familiarize) using their suffixes and prefixes. You can do it!! Just believe in yourself and of course pray! Thank you!

@jazlyn chelsi I can't send private message anymore. If you have more questions you can message me here [email protected]

@zee887 I know right. In Philippines, I waited almost 2 months for the result. Just stay positive, make yourself busy.

@zee887 Ooo yea I heard about it that they don't have quick results, I'm sorry about that. And I also heard they are slow there posting your name on your BON, so finger crossed. I also felt the same way you feel right now, because it was really hard. Try to do PVT again, for me it did work. So for sure, you also made it if you got good pop-up. :)

Congratulations for passing the exam @MidwestFutureRN you deserved it! :)

@zee887 friday? Its Oct. 2.. anyway, it depends which state you are taking.. where is it? If they are not posting after 48hrs, you can do the quick results of pearson vue. lets see, finger crossed! Let me know with your result.

@awllynz thank you! yes exactly, its Michigan. In MI the requirements only is that as long as you are RN in PHIL you can take NCLEX RN here

@Dee29 I'm sorry but I don't know what exam you had mention. I did not take that. Only NCLEX-RN. MI state don't require that, as long as you are RN in PI that's what they need. And each state has different requirements, so check it out first.

@Dee29 which state are you going to take? Are you also RN in PI? I used CGFNS, first you have to sign up there, and then pay for it, get the paper for request from them, that request you need to give it to your school where you graduated and to PRC, and then they will be the one to send it to CGFNS, would take at least 2 months just for that.

@Dee29 honestly I forgot coz at the same time I took care all my papers I was also busy taking care of other stuffs, but overall it did not take me longer not more than 6months for sure.

Thank you @tameen

I'm happy that I could help thru this @jazlyn chelsi.. actually I did not memorize medications, I memorize labs and values.. you can do it!

Thank you @snowfyre, BSN! Exactly, I was like I wish I could just sleep for the whole 48hrs and woke up just to see the result, but yea Thank God, I made it..

Thank you so much @MidwestFutureRN! Let me know your result.. :) I was the one who checked mine.. you made it I am sure!

I am sharing this experience, coz I want to inspire others as how others inspired me here. Before I took my exam, I have read a lot of posts here that helps me to keep positive most especially to those people who did self-review, coz I did the same. I graduated in Philippines, became Registered Nurse there, went in the USA in 2014, got my ATT in July 2015 and I started studying after. I started answering the book of SAUNDERS QUESTION AND ANSWER REVIEW 5TH EDITION together with the EVOLVE, then SAUNDERS COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW 6TH EDITION (I was not able to read the whole content, only used the question and answer from EVOLVE), PRIORITIZATION, DELEGATION AND ASSIGNMENT BY LA CHARITIY 3RD EDITION, decided to enroll 5WEEK COURSE OF NCSBN (and the same thing I was not able to read the whole content because of the lack of time so I just used their Qbanks for answering questions) and everyday night before going to sleep I was watching the HURST VIDEO. The day before my exam still I was not sure of myself If I am prepared coz I only did self-study, for me my effort was not yet enough. September 30, 2015 at 8am was my exam date. I woke up at 5:30am, left home at 6:30 and my husband drove me to the test center, before getting there got light breakfast from panera bread, and went straight there. I got there and checked-in, and started answering until 265!!! I got tons and tons of SATA, and few drugs (only generic name), few prioritization and one calculation (output including diaper converting gram to mL), so far that's what I remember. When I reached #75 and I was really hoping and thinking when it would end coz I already lose hope that time but still I keep answering at the same time praying, until I reached the max #. And I WAS LIKE, OOooooo OKAY, I FAILED. I got out from the test center so nervous and feels so depressed! After an hour, I was reading about PVT, and I was so eager to try it, so I did. I got good pop-up, so it helps me to feel a little bit better, but of course still its not sure, I did PVT again aftr 12hrs, 24hrs and the same thing got a good pop-up, and continued praying, wishing I could have the quick result already cant wait for 48hours. Before I went to bed at October 1, I checked the MI BON, still my name was not there, my anxiety increased and fell asleep while watching movie, I woke up at 5:30am this morning and checked again the pearson vue if they already have the quick result, but then still they don't have. So I went to MI BON website, I checked my name there and found out that I PASSED!!!! I AM NOW RN!! Thank You Lord!! It is His will, and always believe that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH HIM. My advice is, do your best, answer questions and read rationale carefully, memorize the labs and values, do not overanalyze, and always pray because I do believe its the most powerful of all.
