BEST HOLIDAY GIFT EVER!!

Hello everyone, you may remember me from these past months. I have finally passed my RN NCLEX examination, after graduating last May. I didnt get the letter in the mail yet, but my name and license number has been posted on the NY nursing board!! I guess third time is the charm. I would like to thank everyone for their wonderful support throughout the months, I really appreciate it!!

Also like to thank my friends, family and almighty God!! f I can do it, then so can all of you, if you put in the effort and dont give up!

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Thank you everyone!! it still feels surreal,lol. And on the last day of the year also.

Specializes in Medsurg ICU/ Medsurg/ Skilled Nursing.

Congratulations!! What did you do different to study? I'm still trying to pass.

Happy for you!

Congrats.. So what did you differently this time around. I am in the same boat

Thanks everyone.

This time, I decided to take the Ready to Pass Review near long island NY. It was probably the best thing ever. I was able to focus more on my weakness and I was able to understand the Priority questions much more better, that seeing them on the examination made it easy to eliminate all the expected outcomes and narrow it down. They also brush up on topics that you only need to know for the exam, and dont bombard you with extra unneccessary info.

I took Kaplan for the first 2 times and failed..so I honestly believe that you need to know your core content much more than test taking strategies which Kaplan seems to only focus on... Honestly I didnt use the decision tree for any of the questions my recent NCLEX and finally passed. It just doesnt apply to most questions. I only focused on the readytopass review book and questions and finally passed the exam in only 76 questions!!! AWESOME!!!

I had 12 SATA, 3 medications, 2 EKG, 1 picture, 1 exhibit and no drag and drops(thankfully) Most of the rest were priorities and teachings.

I would also recommend to know Orems theorem,herbs and Triage Nursing!!

Congrats!!!!! I know that feeling must be amazing. I take mine in two weeks for the first time and I am freaking out! I've been doing about 150-200 questions a day and a different body system each day - now to take long tests like the q-trainers from kaplan and the hurst tests 1-6. :x. I'm so nervous! How bad were the pharm, pictures, and satas, and ekg?? Congrats again! I am focusing a lot on priority and delegation from the lacharity book- I feel much better about it than I did before I started with that book!
