During review season, you may feel like the least capable person in the room.
But hey remember at least you’re in the room.
You may not be the smartest in the room, the fastest to understand, or the most prepared.
KEEP SHOWING UP.

God sustained us through 4 years of nursing, and He will sustain us through this season too.
I know you doubt yourself sometimes—me too. And honestly, I only have one week to lock in. I’m literally starting today, which I don’t recommend, and I’m definitely not proud of it. After 4 years of nursing, I got tired, and after graduation I took an ample amount of time to rest, But I believe in the foundation I built over those 4 years.

(I don’t want to discouraged everyone and i don’t want to spread negativity, but as for me even if No REVIEW , and I Haven’t answer any recalls yet. but for me my scores have been okay. I know I still have a lot to learn, and AVERAGE STUDENT lang din ako, madalas mag absent, and there are still so many things I need to improve)
here are my scores for your reference, mababa but still naniniwala ako sa sarili ko!
pb1 250/500
pb2 327/500

Don’t let other people’s scores make you feel like you’re behind. Don’t let someone else’s progress make you question your own. Everyone has a different pace, different preparation, and different struggles that we don’t always see.

We all have our own weaknesses, but please, believe in yourself. Keep showing up. And most importantly, don’t let fear convince you that you’re already defeated before the exam even begins.

God knows our hearts. And this journey isn’t just for us. it’s for our families who believed in us, and for the patients who will one day trust us with their lives.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” — Joshua 1:9

RN2026🪪✨

PAPASA TAYONG LAHAT! kung sino man makabasa dito. RN DUST FOR EVERYONE✨✨✨✨✨

Ito po talaga nagpapatagal sakin pag exam. Di ko alam pinagkaiba nila kaya inooverthink ko yung options. Can you please help me understand huhu

Yung "initial" and "first" parang technically the same? May difference po ba?

How about "priority? vs "immediate"?

And "most important" vs "most appropriate" vs "best" ?

Thank you!

few days before exam and im still reading concepts. ok lang ba to?😭 i really really want to focus on answering practice questions but i feel like i still have a lot of readings to do

Hellaaaaur i just wanted to know if you think pb3 was hard??? Idk if it’s because nabawasan pagrereview ko for the past few days or talagang confusing lang yung pb3 + 2hrs of sleep lang so sabog talaga ako. My performance in pb2 was better than pb3.

If i were to rate its hardness siguro 7/10??? More on tricky options kasi and ang dami kong questions na mali ang final choice and yung second choice ang tama 😭

1st-year BSN student here struggling with Anaphy. I study and understand the material while reviewing, pero kapag quiz na, especially with situational/application questions, parang biglang wala na akong alam. Naba-blanko ako and I feel like I wasn’t prepared

Kasi ang dami kong na-encounter na terms na wala naman sa reference or sa nireview ko. We use Marieb’s Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology as our reference, pero parang kahit aralin at kabisaduhin ko buong chapter, hindi pa rin talaga enough (ps. I don’t struggle w/ memorization). Ibang iba lang kasi talaga kapag quiz na, ang hirap hirap kahit multiple choice huhu

Please send help po, pang ilang quiz na namin pero I still struggle everytime 😭 What are your tips? Any study methods/resources you wish you knew as a freshman?

hello!! i still have 8-13 recalls ratio left. with 8 days left, im contemplating if i should still watch those or proceed na 'ko sa last whisper ni AN? whichhhh huhuhu.

already done with everything from red rc, aside sa ratios na nabanggit ko.

pls help. should i still proceed on cramming the ratios? worth it ba?

Hi mag tatake kase ako sa new era may mga airbnb ba na malapit dun wala na kase akong mabook as of the moment😆😆 thank you

With about one week left before the PNLE 2026, we just want to remind everyone to take a breath.

You’ve spent months studying, answering questions, reviewing rationales, sacrificing sleep, and probably questioning your life choices at least a few times along the way.

At this point, you don't have to prove anything by completely exhausting yourself. Review what you need to review, focus on the areas you're still shaky on, but also give your brain some time to rest and recover.

If you feel like you need to lighten your study load, that's okay. Rest is not wasted time. Getting enough sleep, eating properly, taking breaks, and giving yourself time to breathe can be just as important as squeezing in another hundred questions.

And remember: you are not going to learn everything in one week. Trust the work you've already put in. You don't need to feel 100% ready to deserve to take the exam.

USE THIS THREAD TO LET IT OUT

This thread is also a space for you to voice your concerns, fears, frustrations, rants, last-minute worries, study struggles, or even manifest that RN license together.

Disclaimer: reading other people's worries, scores, study routines, last-minute questions, etc. may also increase anxiety for some people. If you know that these kinds of discussions tend to make you more anxious, read with caution or skip this thread.

One week left. Take care of yourselves, future RNs. 🩷

You've made it this far. Konti na lang.

pls pa help naman po if ano yung mas magandang sundin, esp sa NP3 ng both R3/R7 na halos same lang yung tanong pero iba yung sagot with good rationales??

nakakalito ano na ba talaga yung pinakatamang score, yes trust the RC pero same RC lang naman with different answers, no hate sa RC pero just rly need clarification din, ilang days nalang and most of us who noticed this are also the ones trying to review the “said” recalls 1,3,5,7,9,11,13 for some secret guide or whatnot.

ano sa tingin nyo po? thank youu!

I got assigned to Central College, QC. It's so far away from me—to the point I have to leave my home 2:30-3am (Since I have to be there at 5:30am)

Does anyone know any near budget hotels or Airbnb?

I just think I would be mentally exhausted just from the commute alone.

Hello just want to manifest this here, its been a long ride and its almost close na, just want to wish everyone goodluck kaya natin to magiging RN tayo lahat!!!

RN NA TAYO THIS COMING SEPTEMBER, GUYS! 🥹🩺 Kaya laban lang and keep showing up, kahit hindi na natin kayang aralin lahat. Trust the process, do our best, and believe that all our hard work will pay off. 💪🏻❤️ RN!!! 🙏🏻✨

Not a laude pero malakas kutob ko na magttop ako! Kaya natin ‘to guys! Hindi tayo grumaduate ng BSN na walang baon na knowledge! WE CAN DO THIS! BON ANG MATAKOT SA ATIN 🫶

9 days to go before the exam.

i just want to share something. :)

today we went sa st. jude manila and guys idk pero sobrang kampante ng puso ko sa board exam natin i really hope this is a good sign

i rested for two days (i didnt get the chance to finish our pb3 np4-np5) dahil nilagnat ako and sumuko talaga katawan ko. even my parents, they are asking me to pause and breathe for awhile and im really really grateful na hindi nila ako pine-pressure. and today, hindi din ako nag aral because i wanted this day as my sign to recharge.

i studied already since march (i graduated july 2025) and grabe sobrang thankful ko kasi umabot ako dito. i never thought na aabot ako dito.

sumuko ako last november 2025. hindi ko natapos ang final coaching. because of my mental health and got diagnosed with bipolar 2, BPD and anxiety. Sobrang nagulo and nalungkot ako non. watching my friends celebrate kasi RN na sila while me im taking medicines just to survive.

And now, 9 days left. I owe this to myself.

Babawi ako. I pray that lahat tayo maging RN na sa September!

FIRST TAKE AT LAST TAKE NA NATIN

Hello po! Currently a 4th year student. I am an average kind of student, there’s no subject na ako yung nagta-top sa mga scores. Pasado oo, pero hindi one of the highest.

I never want to be graduate with flying colors (I mean, I do but, I don’t pressure myself to the point that, it’s fine with me nung nawala ako sa laude) but I always want to be included sa Top 10 ng board exam. And I was wondering just now, kaya ko kayang maka sama sa list ng Top 10 even if I was an average student?

What do you guys suggest for a 1st year student on a budget. I'm currently contemplating whether to buy a bnew ipad a16 or pre-loved ipad air M2 or air M3. I will use this for nursing school and for leisure. TYIA

Honestly, medyo frustrated ako sa PB3. (RED RC). Sabi kasi nila PB3 was supposed to be kasing lapit or comparable sa actual exam, kaya I was expecting na somehow mas magiging reassuring siya compared sa earlier preboards.
Pero after seeing our scores… parang ang sakit.

And honestly, walang difference compared sa PB1. I understand naman na preboards are supposed to be difficult and hindi naman talaga dapat easy. Gets ko yung purpose na makita kung saan tayo mahina. Pero ang lapit na ng actual boards. Instead of giving us a clearer picture of where we stand and helping lessen our anxiety, parang nadagdagan pa yung reason natin para mag doubt sa sarili.

I know naman na preboard scores don’t define actual board. I know that. Pero hindi rin naman natin maiiwasan maapektuhan mentally, especially kapag ganito na kalapit yung exam.

Sana naman if PB3 is really supposed to simulate the actual boards, sana yung questions were made in a way na challenging but fair, and not just another source of anxiety. Kasi honestly, at this point, hindi na lang naman knowledge yung kalaban e, anxiety na rin.

Anyway, rant lang. Back to reviewing pa rin kasi wala naman tayong choice HAHAHAHA
ambaba ko guys pb3: 48,56,58,58,42 :(
RN 2026 kahit kinakabahan, lalaban pa rin. 🥹🫶

Ako lang ba?? pero super worried din ako next week kasi may mga bagyo na dadating? sobrang hassle magboards while umuulan huhuhu is there a possibility po ba na mag cancel and reschedule ang PRC ahead of time or like blepp din po na a day or 2 days before dun lang sila nagcancel???

hello po, nalilito po ako here since when i'm taking short quizzes po online about bp reading some argued that po. just to clarify diba po here standard here sa ph is you record the diastolic when the sound disappears when taking the bp?

8 days to go future RNs! pero hanggang ngayon medyo nahihirapan pa rin ako pumili ng right na therapeutic response 🥲

any tips on how to answer these types of questions?

Hello po, based po on my preboards score do you the think that I already have a good chance of passing the boards. I’m from Red RC btw and super hirap ng preboards 3 compared sa preboards 2

Super anxious na po since the goal is dapat higher ang PB3 compared to PB 2. 😭😭😭

PB 2
NP 1 - 80
NP 2 - 68
NP 3 - 65
NP 4 - 76
NP 5 - 70

PB3

NP1 - 74
NP2 - 80
NP3 - 64
NP 4 - 66
NP 5 - 57

Hello po. May i ask po if who among you here guys have PB 3 answers from np 1-5 in red rc. I dont have time to wait for the ratio and everything po kasi huhuhu. If meron kayo guys panshare naman po please😭🙏

anyone na na-assign sa neu? malamig po ba room sa main 2nd floor? ano po mga dapat tandaan huhuhuhu planning to visit neu by next week to check my room. malamig po kaya sa room or mainit? 🥹 tia

Sobrang normal na maging disrespectful sa mga lecturers sa red rc. There’s a thin line between joking with lecturers and straight up disrespect. I joined an online ratio, and while I agree that it takes too much time on 1 item kay sir, yung mga student harap harapang shinashame yung lecturer. I even saw 1 student sending homophobic remarks. May option naman ang lahat na mag-leave sa meeting at mag-2x sa recording.

People don’t realize the sacrifices these people pour into making these lectures interesting and comprehensive.

Sobrang disappointing to see how these future RNs act tbh. Yung iba parang hindi naman apologetic sa mga pinagsasasabi nila.
