Taking NCLEX-RN for SECOND ATTEMPT Tommorow

Published

Hello Everyone,

I am taking the NCLEX-RN examination for the second attempt tomorrow, September 20 at 12:30pm and let me tell you, I am EXTREMELY NERVOUS! I have completed the Kaplan Q-BANK and scored between 50's-70's. I also had a few bad days in which my scores were a little lower. I have also read the random fact throwing posts which has helped me tremendously place many things into perspective. I am trying so hard NOT to study today but I just want to do a light review. What do you guys suggest??? I studied Saunders the first time around scoring pretty high but I also overloaded my brain doing Helen Feur CD's, Lippincott made incredibly easy, a little bit of Kaplan. I didn't do many questions because I was so focused on reading material and when it came time for the test my nerves got to the best of me and I failed miserably at 75 questions. I want more than anything to become an RN because i have a passion for caring for others and making a differnece in their lives. This is more than just a paycheck and a career to me. I absolutely LOVE nursing with all of my heart. I've been praying everyday for this dream to come true of me passing the NCLEX-RN the second time around. ANY ADVICE would be APPRECIATED! This site is very therapeutic and I thank all of you for reading. God Bless everyone. :confused:

@ Jorla9903,

You will do just fine! I have faith in you that you will pass. Just go in there with a calm and positive outlook, breathe, and don't allow your nerves to get the best of you. I will be praying for you and everyone else taking test along with us (wherever you may be be). Best of luck to you and may God guide you tomorrow to get through the exam. We WILL PASS :)
