Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen. God Did it for me 💃.
My story is kinda long 😊.
I’m a UKRN, i studied here and just continued working here.
Before I graduated, I casually asked a lady a year above me in school of how much she was getting paid in the NHS.
When she told me how much she earned I just got pi**ed, like how will I spend over £50,000 studying full time and working full time to pay my fees only for them to pay me £1,900 a month (as international nursing students we were exempt from part time work until after covid). I just knew I wanted more.
Fast forward, I graduated and my first pay was £1,600 I nearly cried because I’m a single mum with 2kids. (And if you know the UK, you know that major part of your salary goes to bills)
I bought the NCLEX NGN book in 2024 and it took me 1year to overcome fear of exam (fear is a bad thing oh). While I was trying to overcome fear of NCLEX exam, God had just delivered me from the abusive marriage that almost killed me and my children. I was broken, working 2 jobs, caring for my children all alone while paying expensive childcare.
I doubled up on my prayers, I summoned courage to start reading, but courage failed me even though my name is Courage. Well, I spoke to a church member a few months ago and she introduced me to Decency NCLEX Academy, she gave me Toyin’s number, and I told her I wanted a 1:1 class considering my
Schedule. She told me to take the April class and it was going to help me.
My schedule was messy and I couldn’t cope with that April class, so I insisted and paid for a 1:1 class with Boss Rosita. (It felt like I was back again in school).
Long story short, I invited my parents to come help me with my kids. So I could double down on my studying. I prayed fervently, took time off work and read 18hours daily for 6weeks using simple nursing for 2weeks and dumping it, then focused on archery review for the remaining 4weeks.
It was haaaaarrrdddd to say the least, my mum, my children and I would pray morning and night, we would say our Novena. I was sleep derived (I’m still sleep deprived, lol).
God in his mercy came through for us.
Exam approached quickly, the day before the exam, I Stayed at a hotel which was a 10mins walk from the exam center.
Exam Day; I got to the center, checked and all. Started my exam and I honestly didn’t know what I was reading oh. I spent over 5mins on my first question.
I got to question 86 and I just raised my hand because yooooooo, I was pressed, hot pop 🫣, fear came again. I went to the toilet, looked myself in the mirror and gave my self a talk (you can do this, they were unsure about you in the first phase, it’s time for the second phase, make them sure about you, you can do this).
I came back to my seat, answered 86, then 87. System started turning and said I had finished, I immediately panicked, I raised my hand and I told the man that it’s either 85 or 150 but it shut off at 87.
I started shaking with fear of;
1. I no know wetin I write for that exam.
2. why 87? Is it normal?
He assured me that it was fine, as soon as I got out, the exam building I called my mum and told her to pray for me.
I went back to my hotel room first and I cried like a baby, and I prayed, I cried and I prayed some more, I kept thanking God even though my mind was full of panick.
I checked out and got to the bus station, i got in the bus to go home and I had a full blown panick attack for the first time in my life, I couldn’t breathe, my heart was palpitating, I felt sick, I felt like vomiting, I felt hot but yet my temperature dropped, I kept crying and saying “I don’t feel well, I feel sick”….. I finally calmed down, and the Holy Spirit told me to calm down and sleep.
I woke up 2hours later, and in few minutes I remembered why I was in the bus because I wrote exam, my heart left my body yet again. I started singing praises, put my EarPods on and kept listening to praises, minutes before I got home, I checked TXBON and I saw a ✅ . I called Boss Rosita to check her WhatsApp.
She checked and told me to send my details, she checked by herself and also saw the ✅. I started crying again (I promise I’m not a cry baby but you see this exam made me cry litres of tears 🤣🤣🤣🤣)
I got home and I turned on praises on YouTube on the television and my kids, my mum and me kept singing and dancing, I didn’t tell them about the green tick because ✅ was like a 90% chance, I needed a 100% pass assurance.
48hours later, my daughter brings my laptop, we check it and it’s a PASS. Txbon sent my license (yesterday) 8days after the exam.
I’m so grateful to God for his mercies on my life and my family, thank you DNA, I want to also thank my parents, my children and my siblings for the prayers, thank you Boss Rosita.
UKRN 2024, USRN 2025.
God did it!!!
