Dear Colleagues, its been great reading all the positive posts here and they have really kept me going.
I sit the dreaded NCLEX on Monday after 4 months of study. Still don't really feel ready but cant put it off any longer. Ive been a registered nurse in the United Kingdom for 17 years so it has been a real culture shock doing all this studying but I got through it all one day at a time. I used Kaplan online for International Nurses-expensive but well worth it. I scored in my 60"s for the last two question trainers which was an increase from the 30's when I started.
Praying I don't get hundreds of SATA as I am so rubbish at them.
anway here goes, hopefully I can celebrate next week-either way I will be openiong a bottle of vino
Regards

Hello!
Like you, I already have 7 years of RN experience from Philippines prior to coming here and preparing to take NCLEX. I am also using Kaplan and honestly I know it is really worth the price. I will be taking the test on the 24th Wednesday.
Wishing the best of luck for the both of us!

I read that as taking nclex for 22nd time.
Good luck, don't overthink the questions, think safety/abcs, remember that it's a basic proficiency exam.
thanks for the replies-fingers crossed if I keep my sanity I will get through this. Good Luck anursedad!
