Why Don't they give the NCLEX before you graduate!!!!!!!

Published

I just don't understand why they don't give the NCLEX before you graduate then all the frustration, anguish, sleepless nights, and just crazy thoughts could end. First thing I want to say sorry cali people I really feel for you guys waiting for a month to here from your board that's crazy. I started studying 2 months before I graduated and sent my application into the FL BON 3 wks before I graduated. Unfortantely when I was 13 yrs old I got in trouble so it took the full 30 days to get approval. Then somehow my approval to Pearsons got lost and that took another week resolve. Finally got my ATT and was scheduled to take test on 7/14 but keep checking and found an earlier date 6/29. Made sure I was ready but got so nervous before test couldn't sleep so got out of bed and went over my weak areas. Then when it was time to leave ( test site over 2 1/2 hours away) I walk to the door and all of a sudden I get IBS and dumping syndrome. On drive to test site had to stop 4 times.Took test and got 85 questions on the pn test. Normally it takes 24 hrs to get results now person who inputs scores is on vaction according to staff on BON and anyway they have several days to input data. Did PVT and says I pass but why do they put us through all this madness. Scores are available right away why do they try and drive you crazy!!!!! I can't start work until I get my license. Sorry for ranting I justt feel if we did this all before school was over we could hit the ground running..

Its alright to vent. The NCLEX is a very stressful time. It took me three times before I passed and I freaked out all three. I wish you all the luck.

I agree with you.. I think they should let us take NCLEX before we graduate! Congrats to you, I hope the PVT proves true for you! I take my NCLEX-RN next week for the first time, any advice for me? :)

Do as many questions as possible, and take your time with each question. Find out what they are asking eliminate wrong answers and really think about what they are asking. If they ask you a question about a biopsy the answer might not be as easy as preventing a hemmorage but something deeper. It's about thinking. Hope that helps
