Scheduled my exam! Any one else testing next week? (July 7th)

Published

I graduated on May 12th and it's been a LONG wait for the state to finally issue authorization to test with Pearson. July 7th at 8 AM is the big day.

Our nursing program gave each graduating nurse a scholarship "gift" of the Kaplan 4-day NCLEX prep. I've been doing practice Q-Bank questions nearly every day. So far, I'm doing pretty well on the trainers & Q-Banks. I simply cannot wait to get this over & done with. I have a job lined up and I cannot start until I pass the NCLEX, per their policy.

Anyone else taking their exam next week?

I tested July 7 too, I passed in 75 even though I walked out thinking I might have failed! Congrats to all the new RNs and LPNs here, and good luck to those testing soon! Be confident, you know more than you think ;)

SopranoKris,

Thanks! During orientation, I'll be doing days, but more than likely, I'll be on the night shift once I'm ready to be on my own. The good thing about the nurse residency program is that I'm assigned to an RN as a mentor, so I won't be completely "thrown to the wolves" once orientation is over :) I'm so excited to start! Now that I know when I'm starting, I can FINALLY relax and enjoy my last bit of freedom. Who knows when I'll get this much time off again? LOL :D

I did not have anything set up. I was hesitating between home health and CCU. I think due to family obligations I have to go with home health.
