Week 2

Entering week two, my confidence is on the rise. Concepts that seemed daunting in week one now makes much more sense to me. I feel like I’m making significant progress in understanding and answering questions.

What’s particularly effective for me both in my study sessions and during class is the high level of engagement and the willingness to contribute without fear of sounding foolish. This openness allows for a more dynamic exchange of ideas, where even what may initially seem like a “stupid” answer can lead to valuable insights and learning opportunities for all involved. This week, I’ve crafted a rigorous study schedule and am fully dedicated to sticking to it. Additionally, I’m prioritizing a full night’s sleep before diving into my reading material to ensure I’m fully engaged during class. I’m genuinely excited about these positive changes.

Week 3

This week, after attending class, I’ve had a breakthrough. Your advice to tackle at least 10 questions at a time was spot on. I’ve been following that method, doing 10 questions, taking a short break, then repeating. It’s been much easier for me to manage. Now, I’m determined to build up to longer study sessions, aiming for 50 questions at a stretch. The motivation to succeed is stronger than ever, especially with two of my closest friends already passing the NCLEX. We’re all set to work together in the same hospital, and their success has ignited a fire within me. I can’t wait to join them and tackle our new roles together.

Week 5

I’m optimistic. This course has helped me review materials, understand what it takes to succeed, and engage with classmates to see different perspectives on problem-solving. I’m ready to become a nurse, and I’m confident I will pass.

Week 6

“I’ve never committed to a program like this before, studying for six weeks straight in preparation for an exam. This experience has truly highlighted my weaknesses and helped me grow. Today, I feel immensely more confident than before. I can’t even express how much this program has impacted me; I’m sincerely grateful for it. Thank you for your support and guidance. I believe in myself, and I’m certain I’ll succeed in my exams. I’ve learned valuable test-taking strategies, and I know that whatever is meant for me will come my way. If nursing is my calling, I’ll embrace it fully. Thank you for believing in me.”

After Passing

It feels incredible to succeed so much, words can’t even describe. It’s like there’s no feeling in the world like it. The six-week course helped me immensely, not just in learning content, but also in learning how to approach questions with confidence. It gave me the courage to trust my answers and not second-guess myself. When faced with case studies with multiple options, I only chose what I knew for certain, and this course truly helped me regain my confidence.
