Third time a charm

Published

:lol2:Good morning family this Thursday I will re-apply for CPNE thank you tax refund. For many who don't know i failed the exam 2X's. I'm seeing a therapist to gain control and understand my stress level and why I feel I don't deserve this. At my age I did not realize all the baggage that I was carrying around. I guess it takes the things that we want the most to realize why we block ourselves. Any way; any one who is the same boat pleae feel free to email me, and again Sue thank youuuuu this time I did take to my medical doc about getting med's.

If you need Xanax, cowbell or anything else, get it! I'm gonna. Anything that helps, since I get panic attacks in these situations, too. I was flat out told that I would fail the NCLEX PN if I didn't get my panic under control. I did and passed. I also have had other panic attacks in testing. And in new situations. Nobody would know it looking at me. But do what you need to do and I know you will rock that CPNE this time!

my friend, i wish you much luck! you can do it. i tested with a girl who, passed the 3rd time around. i did not even know she had tested before, it was not until the end i found out. she appeared much more confident, than me or some of the other students - you can do it. i know it is very disheartening to see that word fail in writing and to physically go through the cpne is draining whether you pass or fail. i passed the cpne first time (11-7-08), but just failed the nclex (imagine that....). failing is a hard thing to swallow, however consider it a paid educational experience, take a deep breath and pick your self up, study and test again - you will see the word pass!

try try try again!

I'll tell you about my hubby. He passed NCLEX-RN with 265 questions. He didn't study for it but relied on his experience as an LPN and what he learned in ADN classes. He had tons of questions on partial gastrectomies. He said that he doesn't know how on earth he would have studied for it, considering what his test was about. Good luck to you, NC Girl 35.
