I've passed nursing school and NCLEX twice, once as a LPN and once as a RN. I also didn't learn how to read till I was 9 years old and suffered from low self-esteem about my ability to learn and do well in school and yet here I am: YourFavNurseB.
This video gives the real dets on what it takes to do well in nursing school and beyond.

Nurse B, I started following you at the beginning of my LPN journey. You have been a huge inspiration. With your help, I just finished my RN program! Thank you!

[@Shay-33]

Before I start watching this video , the title got me! I dropped at 17& got my GED at 23! At 33, after working& hustling , I’m currently going thru my prerequisites rn for LPN. After that , I have to take my ACT& then my TEAS! I have one semester left& nervous asf! But I’ve came this far , thank God🙏🏽

[@yourfavnurseb9699]

Good luck going for your LPN, you aren’t gonna regret it

[@MsFD2RN]

I’ve been a funeral director for 15 years now. I always knew I wanted to be a nurse but waited past the 10 year time frame to not have to do the prerequisites over again. For three and a half years I didn’t go back to school because I didn’t want to take the prerequisites over. Long story short I am in my last semester of prerequisites and I passed my teas after taking it one time. I got tired of making excuses and just did what needed to be done. And it went super face.

[@shakespearessister4039]

Starting my pre reqs in January (at the age of 27) your videos have really helped me so much. Thank you for all of your advice

[@fitnessbabe7958]

Keep going. It has taken me 5 years so far.

[@lucasornelas6113]

5 years pre req and payed out of pocket wow you inspire me

[@yourfavnurseb9699]

I wasn’t planning on it taking that long but I just kept with it and took my time

[@lucasornelas6113]

@@yourfavnurseb9699 given the circumstances you faced you powered through it and it’s an inspiration to me I appreciate you taking your time to share with others your journey and what it’s like in the program. I’m in Fresno California next semester I’m sitting for my last final class before I finally apply to the lpn program at my community college . There are a total of 6 pre reqs you have to take before can even apply I have spent about 2 1/2 years taking these courses next semester will be 3 years . I saw your other video on how you can get in without any pre reqs depending on the state you live in . Cali is a different ball game. Good thing is though those classes are the same pre reqs for the lvn to rn bridge so don’t have to take those and can immediately bridge. Love the videos been watching you for a minute can’t wait to start my program and be done .

[@kasugayuuki1438]

Hello there, I commented on one of your videos months ago. I been accepted into nursing school! And this video i have kept of yours ever since you made it. Its been a big motivation for me replaying this video of yours because of how real you are with how to succeed! If ever i need someone to help remind me, its been this video! Thank you for being real and honest helping people to know "You Are Smart! You Can Do It!"

[@ShennaBeanaXO]

Congratulations on being accepted to nursing school!!!!!!😄🎉

[@Supastarjwilliams23]

This came at the RIGHT TIME! ❤ Thank you sooo much for sharing your story, You're extremely motivational and a walking inspiration! I am currently in the LPN program. I look forward to coming back to this comment stating I graduated 🎓 #SpeakingIntoExsistence

[@PrincePalmUwU]

Not interested in nursing but it is still a very helpful tip coming from a person who have dyslexic 😅and I 100% agree, it is up to YOU find ways that best suits your STUDYING don't be afraid to ask questions or find friends that can help you.

[@kaylahood1000]

I really needed this because I still haven't been able to pass my intro to anatomy and physiology class. I am taking it again next year at my community college. I am not use to being tested on 4 chapters. I am a teacher and with me not having to work during the holidays. I will be reading my anatomy and physiology textbook especially the chapters that I didn't understand. Plus my mindset needs to change. I need to stop telling myself that I am not smart enough or that I can't do something. I am not in nursing school yet. I will pass my intro to anatomy and physiology course. And I am paying out of pocket for my pre-reqs I have had people tell me maybe Nursing isn't for me maybe I should change my major. And the process of getting into Nursing school it's no joke at all. All I need to do is study for my anatomy and physiology daily. And Prayer as well. Science takes a lot of time for me to understand. Especially the chemistry chapter. I understand what anterior and posterior is and also the body cavities. And of course the terms anatomy and physiology. And I at least know what glucose is it has to do with sugar.Thank you for this video.

[@dejafrank9904]

I am going through the same thing with Anatomy and physiology

[@Ashleetkc]

Praying for you❤

[@maryonngrace5604]

The channel Amoeba Sisters on KZbin has helped me tremendously understand anatomy and physiology concepts. Check it out! Also, if you don't know what your learning style is, find out through your school or quizzes online. Once you know which learning style fits you, you can focus on specific methods that'll help you learn and retain more smoothly. I'm rooting for you!

I was in my feelings today 😢 and I thank you because I needed to hear this. ❤

I think my biggest fear is success itself….I don’t know why but I just do, something keeps pushing me out of my comfort zone but getting through it will be gratifying! Starting back Summer 2024! Focused and excited this time around!

[@PaulRodriguez-dr8sn]

Wow I'm delighted,I can't even explain.i just passed my exams through the help of Ms Amelia, it's my 5th attempt God is the greatest y'all can make it,you just need to focus and change up your strategy.

Hey I love you. I'm definitely not feeling encourage I'm in a master in entry-level nursing program, and these people do not even support us. I I am a single parent to two kids and I’m just asking God to help me on my next two pharmacology test I’m on the borderline and I have to score a 81% in test and I’m just really scared because I failed one of my test and we only get four test to complete the 81% so I really appreciate your encouragement because these people don’t have no sympathy and they are very negative. And I work part time as a respiratory therapist.

[@JewelynGoode]

I just finished my CNA few months ago. I thought I can’t do the LVN program. Because I was struggling with my CNa program because I have 2 little kids. I’m scared to try and challenge my self coz I am not a smart student but I am not lazy student. I can manage to Wake up at 3Am to study. I always drag my feet to go to school and not confident being around with younger students. I am 36 yrs old and I feel old to go back to school. but the reality kick in. Everything is getting expensive and my kids are growing. My husband is retired. So now I’m ready to challenge my self coz I’m tired of working with low pay. I will start my prerequisites this coming fall. 🙏

[@yourfavnurseb9699]

Congrats on finishing your CNA! That’s a big deal, keep believing in yourself and focus on your why. Don’t let your age stop you, you’re not going to get any younger is what they say right? That LVN program is going to fly by. Your babies and your husband are going to be so proud of you and you’ll be an inspiration. There are SO many people in their 30s, 40s etc in nursing school. I had a lady in her 50s in my RN program. I even worked with a nurse that didn’t go to school till she was in her 50s she retired a few years ago, she used to wear the boat hat and everything. I’m so happy for you for going for what you want, you’re going to do great!!

Thank you for being so honest. I too didn't learn to read until the fourth grade. You're truly a beautiful person.

[@yourfavnurseb9699]

Thanks for watching. I’m honest about my past because you really can overcome all that trauma around education, it holds a lot of people behind, esp math, but if you change your mindset and start to believe that you can do it, you really can. It sounds corny but it’s true.

[@jeanqueen8401]

I felt this way today I’m glad I came across this video!

[@jeanqueen8401]

I have a friend who said she doesn’t see me as a nurse I personally think she doesn’t see what it takes for me to become a nurse because she doesn’t think I’m smart enough I’ve been a CNA for ten years working in the hospital and nursing home so I do have some experience on this healthcare field

[@Ms.pretty314]

@@jeanqueen8401that’s not your friend then if she can’t support your dreams. Evaluate what and who you tell stuff to. Go for it! I’m in a nursing program and I’m not a CNA so I’d say you have more hands on experience than me. Don’t let anyone discourage you

I’m glad I came across this video today. Thank you for making this video. I am inspiring nurse to be. I was in nursing school a couple years ago and I didn’t make it cause I was in that mind set and I was not focus at all. And I was not getting it neither when they say nursing is different from any other thing it is. I do plan on going back soon and I know this second time around it’s going to be better. Thank you again.
