265 questions later....I PASSED!!

Published

Honestly, I felt very prepared going into my test! I studied for hours beforehand! I had three different resources (Saunders and Lacharity)...and was backed up by Kaplan's FIRST TIME guarantee!

I got no med calculations, 4 SATAs, a whole bunch of infection control, and priority questions, one after another!! It felt like i was doing triage nursing!!

If my test stopped at 75, I would have felt more confident about my test! I knew most of the questions they gave me in the first 75! When it turned 76, I PANICKED HARD!! Heart started to race, started to sweat, and all of a sudden I could hear everything that was going on in the testing center! Those ear plugs aren't that great! Questions 76-200 was a blur!! By 201, I just knew that I was going all the way! And that's when I started to just hurry through the questions to get out of there!

4 days later...and after an agonizing and tear-filled weekend....i saw my name on the CA BRN website!! I passed!!

Remember to KEEP YOUR FAITH UP...because I definitely have my friends to thank for encouraging me and supporting me through this whole ordeal! I was seriously convinced that I would have to retake the exam!

The numbers you get on the exam....has NOTHING TO DO WITH WHETHER YOU PASSED OR FAILED!! Don't focus on the number of questions....focus on the question itself!!

Good luck everyone!! Remember...it's just a test....if you fail, at least it's just another test you have to take, you didn't get kicked out of nursing school...and you don't have to repeat 4th semester (ughhh!!!)!!
