Robyn_wants 2 B A RN

I'm scheduled to take my test the middle of July, and as I'm doing the practice questions... I'm not doing so good. I'm freaking out because I have a job waiting for me but it goes away if I fail (PRESSURE).. I couldn't afford Kaplan so I'm going to do NCSBN starting friday, the 5 weeks plan. I did good in school but I think my anxiety about the test is making me freak out when I do the questions. I pray to God that I Pass the NCLEX.. but I can't help but think what if??? I would die if I failed and my dream of being a RN is ripped away from me. I don't know what to do to make myself calm down.

Don't freak. The NCLEX is easy. I just took it on the 8th and compared to the exit HESI...hmm.. its cake.
I was also freaking out to the point that I couldn't make myself study anymore. So I didn't. The test is very...very straight forward. Bekieve me, you'll do fine...
...that is if you did ok in the program.
Let us know how you do, so I can say "I told you so"
Hey,
my school didn't have HESI, we had ATI and I did really good on that? so you didn't do any review? AHHHH I can't for this to just be a memory!!
Did review at school as a separate class.
Just start applying for jobs now, because you'll be done b4 you know it.
I applied to 2 jobs before I got license, and I got both jobs. I work 1 FT the another PRN.
I don't partic like the 1st one so I sent my resume to about 10 other jobs..just fishing..and I got 7 job offers. The other 3 haven't called me yet, but I'm sure they will. Don't let anyone fool you. There are jobs..you just can't expect them all to be in the hosp:nurse:

It is another test. If you do not pass, you have the opportunity to retest until you do. Worry about getting a job when you should, after the test has been completed successfully. Good luck.
