Scared to death of failure

Published

Hi family,

Just wanted you to know that I decided to change the date of my last exam. I was going to take it on the 30th, but I am sooooooooo scared. I keep thinking and dreaming that I will get to the testing center and draw a blank. I read and the words become blurrs. I re-sched for the 6th of Oct. I know I can do it if I put my mind and faith in order, but the pit of my stomach is telling me to wait 1 more week. I will be studying at the bookstore for the next week and reviewing my pract. quest. (all 200) and go from there. Thanks for listening.

I did the same thing with the Nclex-rn last year---- I know it's scary, but you just have to think that you studied your hardest and you will make it!!

good luck:yeah:

Dawn,

I failed the CPNE the first time. The humiliation was awful. But I got past it, and passed the second time.

You nail that exam, girl.

You have come this far, and not by chance. You've endured nursing school and graduated. :D Stay positive and know that you can do this. Good luck!:wink2:

Dawn,

You will pass that test. Its good that you gave yourself another week to get it all in but don't keep putting it off. You know it even better this time. Good Luck and give me a call.
