Thanks,

First you need to take a few days off to relax and not look at any NCLEX material. Keep away from anyone or anything that might be increasing your sadness or anxiety. Once you have done that, you need to decide how to you want to prepare yourself again for NCLEX. Reading though the posts, you will find that lots of people have passed with
Suzannes Plan only.
If you decide not to use Suzanne's Plan, then I would recommend at least a 5 week NCLEX review course with the board of nursing:
NCSBN Learning Extension. Make sure to purchase a
Prioritization Assignment and Delegation book and complete all questions in the book. For medications review your HESI book and pay attention to
High Alert Medications.
Please make sure to include adequate sleep, diet, and exercise in your daily NCLEX studying to help cut down on anxiety. Most of all keep Him first in all that you do. Don't waste time being sad, this is just another bump in the road. A lot of us have failed, but what matters is that you keep trying. I understand your sadness, but you will pass with proper NCLEX preparation. You will be a nurse soon.
