i've been out of the forum for i think 6 months now. until there's this email from all nurses telling me things that i've been missing.
i had my 2nd exam last may '08. so maybe some of you were asking what did i do after all those months. i had a work--two jobs in a row in able to sustain myself since after i failed the test twice, i had to gear up and be responsible living my life as should be.
honestly, after these long months..i've forgotten things about nursing. since my field of work is way too far from medicine, i am struggling on how to start all over again. my parents won't be there to help and support me. it's really a complicated situation. it's like because of this nclex exam i've ruined everything esp. family relationship. so that's how i looked upon the nclex. it's like this goal that's so hard to reach. unlike some people, having it is like buying your favourite cheese burger in a food stall.
in those two exam, both i've got this 265 questions maximum and same near passing results in all fields. i failed twice and it's really traumatic. im wishing everyone would be there to support me. i don't care if i fail more than twice, or the world turn around against me. but at least wishing and hoping my parents would be there standing firm to support me. this exam makes me emotionaly unstable til now and im really feeling depressed.
im here again in allnurses, cause in here i could be no other. in here i could find all the encouragement i have. and in here people understand me well.
i enrolled myself in kaplan and it'll start this january. i live in CA, but i had to fly to my sister here in VA so that i could have a free apartment. that includes bills and foods too. to those any of you who did kaplan, and other review materials. i don't know how to motivate myself back again. and i guess attending some classes would be a great help for me. as i see through my two consecutive failing exams, i lack in strategy on how to analyze questions. i need your help guys, to enlighten me and show me how to start all over again. Happy New Year to everyone! Is there a february nclex test taker support group around here? the new layout makes me confuse since im not use to it. don't get me wrong it's really a good layout! wishin' you all well! :)
and also since im taking the test now here in VA--but the license is still for CA. Is it okay for me to change my adress (fr
om CA to VA. i just wanna know if the result would be by the state of board you've applied which is CA? and taking the test here won't affect anything. i feel more okay here. not pressured and restless unlike the two exams i had before. to everyone who's taking the test let's work harder! and those waiting for the results, hoping you'll be okay as you wait. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :typing
