3rd time, no success

after a grueling 3 week wait, i got the dreaded big envelope today. folks/peers/colleagues, please pray for me that i make it the 4th time around? i am going to give suzannes plan a try and hopefully i will become the RN i have always wanted to be. to anyone that has failed repeated times and has used suzannes plan and passed, how effective was it for you? i have tried NCSBN learning extension and kaplan previously. please give me insight as to how well it has worked for you because i would be really crushed if i put in the time and effort and not have it work for me. HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE! i really hope your holiday season was much more joyous than mine!

Re: 3rd time, no success

I am sorry to hear your news. I took my test in December for the second time to find out I failed. I am going to give Suzanne's plan a try and hopefully it works. Keep your head up and be positive.

Re: 3rd time, no success

sorry to hear that..I know that its hard..Studying is very hard..You just have to stay focused allot time in studying in a very conducive place where you can focus..

I wanna share with you my method of studyng which brought me to pass nclex-rn the first time..I allotted 3 month..Its just a simple time management i made..1st month-review all theories,read book as much as you can and the remaining 2 months I allotted for answering questions which i did..I answer 300 questions a day..so that would give a whole lot of info and endurance..Don't forget also to read all rationales may it be right or wrong..

HOPE THIS WOULD HELP YOU,,AND HOPE YOU WILL PASS THE NEXT TIME..ALWAYS REMEMBER PRAY HARD AND STUDY HARD...

I'm sorry to hear that you didn't make it.
Have you tried a different kind of review, like Hurstreview? I've heard that they are better than kaplan.

Re: 3rd time, no success

I took the NCLEX 3 times and finally passed on the 3rd after using Suzanne's plan. Defiantly give it a go, it works! Follow it exactly and you will pass. I had tried Kaplan before and still failed. Her plan is what worked and I had been out of school for 3 years by the time I used her plan and still passed. Good Luck!

Re: 3rd time, no success

Hi JCRUZ,
Did you get Suzanne's plan today? She said she was going to mail it today but I'm not sure how I will get it. Does she send it via email? I have been checking my email all day but no plan yet. Can you please let me know? Thanks and good luck studying. I am in the same boat as you. Stay Positive!!!
