Ran out of steam on NC5

Published

Maybe some of you could help me find some motivation/reassurance for my last Nursing Concepts exam. I was on a roll there for a while, passed 5 exams in 4 months. But I got the fear for NC5, which I saved for last. I haven't failed any yet. I've gathered that this is a difficult one if not the most difficult one. I got a 57% on form A and a 58% on form B of the practice exam. I keep rescheduling it. I just want to move forward and it's constantly eating at me. It's probably not helping that I'm building it up to be such a beast.

I was elated until I found out how long I have to a CPNE date. 7-9 months. That's disappointing.

It'll go by quickly ... don't get discouraged! Where are you planning on applying? NPAC schedules more quickly, from the look of things ...
