Hello ngayong araw palang ako maglolock in. Ik ik sobrang tutukan. I had a lot of problems prior to getting my NOA kaya di ako makalock in because late ko na din nakuha tor ko so i was so uncertain if wether or not i could take the aug 2026 pnle. Nahirapan din me magreview due to my work. Sobrang lala ng pag ooverthink ko and hindi ko na alam gagawin ko. May mga concepts ako na until now hindi ko pa alam. Legit na iniiyakan ko nalang kasi recalls 3 lang natapos ko. Wala pa rin ako nasagutang preboards. Sa comprehensive phase, hindi rin ako nakapag lock in kasi nga im working. I feel so lost and stressed.

Send helppp huhu anlala ng overthinking ko sa board exam na to because ive waited so long and yet sobrang demotivated and anxious ko. 2023 pa ko graduate pero i had to work because im living independently na and i had to fend for myself.

I worked so hard to be in this position kasi hinaharang ng univ ko yung nagtatake ng board exam kaya rin naging unsure ako if makakapagtake ako ngayong aug and yet somehow i still fall short sa knowledge and basic concepts. Ewan i really dont know.

What do i do ba huhu 9 days left nalang and sobrang lala ng overthinking ko. Do i just reschedule sa feb 2027 or do i take it now?

August 2026 PNLE taker here. Normal ba na hindi pa nagsisink in yung kaba? Mas lamang yung pagbrebreakdown ko kesa sa kaba. I don’t know if namanhid na ako pero hindi ko maintindihan yung nararamdaman ko 🥹 (ambivalence).

Aaminin ko — hindi rin ako masyadong nakakapagreview. Umaattend ako ng review classes everyday. I take the exams. But beyond that? Hindi pa ako naglolock in and I don’t know how to. Kada tingin ko sa notes and test papers ko, parang napapangunahan na ako ng pagod. Naburnout na ako sa review matagal na and di ko alam paano makabangon.

Sa mga kapwa ko PNLE takers, kumusta kayo? Anong strategies nyo sa pagrereview?

Sa mga PNLE passers, may tips po ba kayo and pwede pabasbas?

Umiyak na ako kanina habang nagnonovena hahahaha pero laban lang. RN 2026 🤍🩷

11 days left, and idk if ako lang po pero parang hindi pa po ako kinakabahan? kinakabahan ako kasi hindi ako kinakabahan, gets po ba? 😭 marami pa po akong hindi alam and i'm really trying to study them while answering prac questions kasi i'm testing my stamina in answering hard, confusing questions.

may tiwala po ako sa sarili ko, and of course may tiwala po ako kay Lord. 😭💯🙏🏻

RN 2026!!!!! TO TOP THE BOARD EXAM!!!!!

Papasa pa po ba ko lagay na ito? Kakatapos lang preboards 3 namin online. Yun lang na attendan kong preboards kasi lahat conflict dahil on going pa classes. Di ko na alam natapos ko naman lahat ng recordings bat parang hindi pa din sapat. Any advice naman po kasi nakakapanlumo na gusto ko na lang mag no show sa board exam at magkulong na lang huhuhu. Ang hirap hirap. Ito po score ko 🥹 ano pa po bang need kasi nakakapagod na

NP1 - 73

NP2 - 75

NP3 - 69

NP4 - 79

NP5 - 68

Pag naka average 72. 8 kulang pa ng tatlong puntos para pumasa. Ayaw ko ng mag ulit ng boards kasi pagod na pagod na ko baka pag inulit ko to bumalik na naman suicidal tendencies ko 🥹

Ilang araw na akong walang matinong review and honestly, kinakabahan na ako kasi ang lapit na ng exam. Ilang months din akong halos araw-araw nagre-review hanggang 6 AM, kaya baka ngayon ko na talaga nararamdaman yung pagod.

Hindi naman sa ayoko nang mag-aral. Parang ang hirap lang ulit magsimula at makuha yung momentum na meron ako dati. Mas nakakastress kasi habang lumilipas yung araw, mas lalo akong nagi-guilty na wala akong nagagawa.

Ayoko rin namang pilitin sarili ko nang sobra tapos tuluyang ma-burnout, pero at the same time, ayokong sayangin yung mga araw na natitira.

RN 2013 here. Base sa experience ko, I have a score sa PNLE lower than 75 but not less than 60, but still manage to pass the exam. I think they still based the rating sa scores nyo sa PNLE. I don’t know if its true sa mga sabi sabi na bini base sa score ng highest scorer. Also, topics in PNLE is very random like you can’t predict kung anong lalabas talaga. I remember during my boards merong research questions na lumabas randomly sa ibat ibang NPs. At the end of the day if naging RN kayo, your rating will not be based sa pag aapply nyo ng work(I don’t know sa ibang hospital). Pero base sa experience ko, my rating does not discourage me sa paghahanap ng work. Now I am a senior nurse working in a government hospital dito sa Pilipinas.

ask anything PNLE related below 😉 pampa relax ng overly stimulated neurons nyo 🫶

Is there a possibility po na ma-move or ma-postpone ang PNLE this August due to the current weather conditions, especially po dito sa Pampanga? Halos lubog na po kasi ang maraming areas, and Pampanga has already been declared under a State of Calamity due to the widespread flooding.

With the current situation, may possibility po kaya na magkaroon ng official postponement or rescheduling of the PNLE? We’re also concerned po about the safety of the examinees, accessibility of the testing centers, transportation, and possible flooding along the routes going to the examination venues.

over naman sa title!!!! pero dahil malapit na board exam. i just want to say na ang galing ng mga nagraratio sa recalls at mga lecturers.

1. Ma'am Maninang - THE BEST SA LAHAT NG NAGRATIO!!!!! sraightforward, malinis ang ratio. i appreciate her effort nung may answer ratio ss recalls 7 na iba ang ratio sa recalls 3. and she really took her time to verify & validate the right answers.

2. Ms. Jules Arceo - THE BEST!!!!! straightforward. hindi siya nag FC sa amin, but i asked my friend from pure online if pwede makahingi ng lectures niya sa hema/immuno & funda FC (since our lecturer is a uhmmm meh 🤷🏻‍♀️)

3. Ma'am Moryne - ang linis ng PPT. straightforward.

4. Sir Keith - GINANON NIYA LANG ANG renal tapos fluid base imbalance. napakagaling!!! tapos magkakaroon ka talaga ng stress continence sa kakatawa!!

5. Sir Kevin - ginanon niya lang ang psych. hindi na tuloy mawala sa isip ko si dionela HAHAHAHAHA pati si juan at juana. napakagaling. natatawa ako kapag sinasabi niyang "ang hirap kumita ng pera" pero makikita mo talagang passionate siya sa pagtuturo.

6. Sir Archie - ALAM NIYO NA YAN! tho i wish sana mas dinagdagan pa mga pedia diseases.

7. Sir Escordial & Ma'am Acevedo - THEEE november 2025 top 1!! galing nila magratio, kaso naiintimidate ako kasi ang talino HSHAHAHAHA

8. Ma'am Shanelle - i love ma'am so much 😭 OB is my weakest subject!!!! tapos sa 3 preboards... np2 ang highest ko. siya nag FC sa amin sa CHN, and may tiwala aq!!!

9. Ma'am Yan - mas straight pa sa straightforwarddddd

alam niyo ba ineeme eme ko lang yang test taking strategies, tapos unconsciously palang nagagawa during exam? HAHAHAHAHAHS wala lang. medyo mababa preboards 3 ko kasi online at hindu ako makafocus sa house, pero may tiwala ako na hindi ako bibuguin ng sarili ko, at ni Lord. RN 2026!

Hello! I am currently working in a tertiary hospital for about 1 year now and I'm so tired with the system, environment, and workload here in the PH :(( I wanna start finding an agency for working abroad.

I plan to already start applying for an agency to help me find work in the US. I'm currently torn with Avant (i'm hesitating because I hear they want the applicant to stay as a bedside and i'm nit sure I can still continue being a bedside nurse) or Health Carousel (i heard they have a better contract compared to previous years ago). I would gladly accept any feedback or even agency suggestions.

I also want to look for any agencies that can help me work abroad? Specifically Singapore or UK (tho I haven't done my IELTS yet). I'm thinking about working there first while waiting for the my PD in the US, preferably early next year if I can find a good agency as soon as possible.

Hoping for your kind recommendations and suggestions! Thank you

I was doing a bit well na nung preboards 2 tas ganyan ulit scores ko, kalokabels huhu. Maybe it's because wala rin akong gana mag sagot kasi online sya and I noticed na I don't really do well pag online since hindi ko nasusulatan yung paper, but still huhu.. papalapit na and I'm slowly losing motivation and nagkakaroon bigla ng mga doubts and anxieties, but I still do my best na mag review pero I don't think na it will be enough. Anyways RN2026 tayo guis 🍀✨️

Hello po everyone, sa mga nag pb3 na here baka po pwede penge ng wala pang sagot na test paper🥹 Super taas na po kasi ng baha sa kalsada namin and pinag take pa ng iba yung pb3 kahapon then ayaw pa nila isend yung file at need nalang daw kunin sa mismong site e paano nga kukunin di na nga makalabas sa dahil taas ng baha😭 Help po pls

I’m a retaker. Nov 2025 conditional, decided to take Feb exam to take all than just one subject but sadly I failed. Now I gave my all!! And confident to take this exam!!! Even shouting to God “kahit 75.50 nalang lord!!!”

Hello po! I’m so anxious about the upcoming board exam because the PB scores I got and even some FC scores are not score-ing huhu. May I know ano po ang average scores na parang “sure” (well wala naman talagang sure lol) na makapasa ka. Thank you

From the questions above, kinakabahan lang ako dahil sa oras. Inuuna ko kasi magsagot before shading plus kapag inaantok ako natatagalan ako sa isang number! HUHU
- May nakaflash po bang timer during exam?
- Puwede ba digital watch (para makita sana agad yung oras imbes na analog) ?
- Nagsasabi/naguupdate ba yung proctor kapag ilang minutes na lang?
- May clock or timer ba sa room?
- Ano best strategies para di maubusan ng oras?

ik naman it depends sa testing site, pero hopefully sana may magreply here!! SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE PLSSS!!

Hello po! Mag-aask lang po ako sa mga ate and kuya namin, esp mga nagtake noong Feb 2026 takers and board passers. Marami po bang lumabas na communicable diseases? Nahihirapan akong kabisaduhin silang lahat, especially ’yong IPs nila. Ano-ano po mga lumabas na CDs noong board exam ninyo and paano atake ng questions sa NP1? Thank you!
