9years later

I graduated from nursing school in 2010 with 3 kids, one only being 3.5months old. Due to home circumstances, I never sat for boards. I met my husband in 2014 and he pushed me to sit. I though no way will I ever pass boards. It's been so long, so much has changed, I wouldnt even know where to begin. I bought the Saunders nclex questions and joined a nclex review class online. I sat for boards in 2015 waited 4 hours and tried the perason vue trick and got a "bad pop up" which was confirmed 48hours later when my quick results showed Fail! Figured I had wasted 4 years of school and a lot of money. A couple months ago I decided I was determined to my RN. I went online and purchased the NCLEX Mastery RN for $55 which never expires and I began watching and taking notes on the NCLEX review videos from Sara at Registered nurse RN on YouTube. I studied straight for a good month and did about 100 nclex practice questions a day. I sat for boards 10/26/18 and got 138 questions. I waited 4 hours then tried the pearson vue trick and got a "good pop up" which was confirmed this morning when my quick results showed I passed. Just wanted to give some encouragement to those frustrated. I graduated nursing school 8 years ago and still passed boards.

As a CMA tour doctor takes responsibility for you and if anything happens they are the one held reliable. I'm not interviewing I'm staying where I've been working and it's not illegal, I am a certified CMA so I carry that. And the board of nursing is aware when I filled out my paperwork I have to put where I work, what my title is and what I do there.

It is the nclex job to determine if you are a safe nurse.

Congratulations...way to work hard and attain your goal. That's hard to do with a family and big lag in time. Sounds like with your experience and determination, you will be an excellent provider!

Wow, what an accomplishment! Congratulations! I am feeling super down on myself lately since starting my senior year so I really needed this inspiring story.

Patjew8187 No worries enjoy you did it. My inspiration I have a 1 year old and its hard as you know what trying to study and that fact you did it with 3 hands down. In my Martin voice, "You go girl". It makes you appreciate it much more.
