I have taken the nclex lpn two time and both time i have got over 200 questions and still failed. The second time i run out of time at 196 questions, i failed again.
i have never felt like i was stupid but this exam makes me feel like i'm stipid. i'm will to try again. i'm reviewing sander's and doing all the questions in the book.
Does any one know what other book i can review before i take my exam the third time.
I really need help, i'm willing to pay any one who can help through this....
Thank you all
I am sorry to hear that you failed twice. I didn't use her plan, but the NCLEX Forum does have a sticky that illustrates what her directions are. It is something along the lines of answer the questions in the chapters first, and then review what you got wrong. She then says to send her a PM which she responds to biweekly, I believe with the next set of instructions. Send her a PM and ask her what she means. She may not answer for another few weeks (it appears that she answers bulk mails), but she will.
I did use the learning extension program, and while I didn't think that the questions were close to NCLEX, per say, I can say that the level of difficulty had me think a bit differently. I used so many resources that I can't say what was the sum total of what actually made me pass the first time, but I think it was because I learned to answer what those fools wanted me to say. Kaplan sells an NCLEX Strategy book for both LPN and RN which I found particularly helpful. Good luck. You certainly have my empathy. Also keep in mind that many do fail, but most have not given up. It may be test taking anxiety, or a sort of post traumatic stress from being afraid to fail again. Some people had to take medications temporarily until they took the test, because the key thing is to be calm, think rationally and make it through that exam.
