i'm one of the nursing graduates who took the board exam last june 2008. and now there are a lot of rumors about the passing rate of the exam. some even say that only 30% pass:scrying: and that july 20 is the day when the results will be released. of course none of them are true so far but rumors like this increases my anxiety level and its so frustrating because you can't do anything but wait. helpful tips anyone? thanks.

hi lobes i now how you feel! the waiting game is so depressing. Some people take advantage of you like spreading rumors around. I took the board exam too last year (june 2007) and have waited for 3 months for the results to get released.
Dont wait for the results just busy yourself with something else.
I have a tip for all those nursing students who are waiting for the results.
1. take time to read the threads here to get a BIGGER picture of the nursing industry both locally and internationally
2. Don't get tempted and work somewhere else outside the realm of nursing
3. If you plan to go abroad, this is the best time to do some research
good luck to you

Last Dec. 2007, the same rumor spread around- only 30% passed the exam. Result came out. 48%.
Pray. Don't believe everything you hear. Keep your fingers crossed. You'll get through it. Good luck!!!

Hello everyone. I'm also one of the thousands who took the June 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination. It's been a month and a half since we took that exam. I share your anxieties and worries, I even get to dream about the NLE every now and then, but its all out of our hands right now. All we can do is to hope and to pray. God bless us all!

Thanks everyone.I got it.
Control the mind control your life
suffering is just in the mind
Whatever you believe will be true for you
Keep your emotions in check and keep your thoughts positive for the benefit of all and you will lead a great life. Even if you do not have it believe you do and be grateful for it and see what happens.
Suggested reading "The Science Of Getting Rich" by Wallace D Wattles. it is an amazing book more about your mind and creating success for yourself than the money but excellent reading and really works.
By the way last year pass rate was 43% see yourself as one of them

you may want to keep yourself busy for a while. you may try working in another field. believe me, once you passed the nle, you will not be able to work immediately. there are still lots of documents to accomplish like the cert. of passing, board rating, license, etc.. while waiting for the result, you'll be able to save money for those documents. :saint::saint:
