The exam is used by nursing boards in all U.S. states and territories to award nursing licenses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s great to see more and more NMC nursing graduates pass the challenging NCLEX-RN,\u201d NMC president Galvin Deleon Guerrero, Ed.D. said. \u201cI congratulate Marianne on this accomplishment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NMC department chair Rosa Aldan also congratulated Sembrano on her achievement.\u00a0 \u201cMarianne has a bright future in the nursing field and we expect to see great things from her as her educational and professional journey continues,\u201d Aldan said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sembrano, she wanted to pursue a nursing degree as it offers job security and financial stability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNursing is a respected career,\u201d Sembrano said. \u201cI think what fueled my passion and motivation is the joy I get knowing that at the end of the day, I am able to save someone\u2019s life or take care of them to the best of my abilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sembrano added that the support she received from her family, friends, and NMC helped her succeed in passing the NCLEX.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo weeks leading up to exam day, everyone kept telling me that I\u2019ll do great,\u201d Sembrano said. \u201cThey told me that they believed in me\u2014that if I don\u2019t pass, they won\u2019t look at me differently. Hearing those words reassured me and provided me with the confidence that I needed to get through my exam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the integration of Kaplan\u2019s online resources into the NMC Nursing Program curriculum helped Sembrano pass the exam.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the Nursing Department made a great decision having Kaplan available as a resource that nursing students can use during and after the program,\u201d Sembrano said. \u201cThe format of the test prep course is identical to the NCLEX, so it felt like I was taking just another exam in nursing school.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the other nursing students who plan to take the exam, Sembrano advises them to always be confident.\u00a0\u201cRemember that you studied hard enough,\u201d Sembrano said. \u201cRemember that you know the content\u2014and as cheesy as it sounds, remember that you got this. On the off-chance that you do fail, take it again. Don\u2019t let failure stop you from achieving your goals of becoming a nurse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about NMC\u2019s nursing program, email Aldan at\u00a0rosa.aldan@marianas.edu\u00a0or call (670) 237-6744. <em>(NMC)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marianne Sembrano, a graduate of Northern Marianas College\u2019s nursing class of 2022, recently passed the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":380754,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[69],"class_list":["post-380752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news","tag-nmc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/380752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=380752"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/380752\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/380754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=380752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=380752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=380752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
