Things you'd rather go through than taking NCLEX again

Published

I am once again studying to take the NCLEX again, after failing the first time. I can't start my job until I pass this test. Because of this, my life will revolve solely around the NCLEX for the next 9 weeks. After that, I have to go through the whole process of emotions of fear, stress, anxiety, etc AGAIN. I think that there are other terrible things that I would rather endure than going through this ordeal again. :no: I live in a desert climate, so I would rather be bitten by snakes, spiders or scorpions (as long as they are non life threatening). Or, I'd rather have a root canal or suffer broken bones, even though my pain threshold is very low.

I live in Florida, so I think it's appropriate to say I'd rather get eaten by an alligator! :lol2:
