National Certification Exam Candidates

Hi all,

I would like to thank the participants in this community for all of the helpful study tips. 
I passed the test on Sunday Morning. It has been 30 years since I passed the NCLEX, so I studying the material again was a nice review. 
I addition to the Comprehensive School Health text, the study guide, the computerized practice tests, and the flash cards, I also listened to Nurse Mike on YouTube while I walked the dog. He had great memory trick for vaccinations.

Prior to the home test, during the room check my camera became disconnected and I lost the connection and I had to log back on, but I managed to get back on the site and do the test. Give yourself sometime to get everything going beforehand. 

My proctor had to keep reminding me not to put my hand on my mouth as I was taking the test, so that's my tip for everyone. Keep your hands off off your face.

Best of luck to those preparing for the exam now.

Dear fall study group,

Thank you for all of your helpful ideas in studying.  It has been an honor to study with you.  I very much congratulate those who have passed and more than that, I respect and honor those who have not passed, but will not yet give up.  We are so fortunate to have NASN, an amazing national association who always has our backs.  

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We have much to be grateful for.

All my best,

Debbie
