Well I failed my first attempt... 45 days to fix it I guess

Re: :-(

Do not look at how many days to resit but at how many day s you need to study. Do not rush to resit (believe me I know better said than done) but give yourself time to prepare properly. Hang in there and take a week off before starting again and start as if you haven't tested before.

Good luck

Re: :-(

hmm I didn't think of looking at it that way. Thank you

Re: :-(

Hang in there...take this time to study and take it again when you feel ready. Don't focus on the minimum time you have to take the test again. I will keep you in my prayers.

Re: :-(

i also have to take my test again, and i am taking it exactly after 45 days, but what i am doing is not wasting any day, and studying EVERY SINGLE DAY, i try to get atleast 2-4 hours of studying done per day, which i can ensure should be enough, i am also taking the kaplan course this time, the first time i didnt use any review, i suggest you should take a review

Re: :-(

I am just so disappointed in myself. Everyone keeps telling me not to worry about it but it's so disheartening after 4 long years. I didn't take a review either. People from my class who took Kaplan said it was a waste of time and a couple people still failed. I was afraid to risk $600. I think I may try the NCBSN thingy I keep seeing on here this time around. Good luck to you too

Re: :-(

Nrsstudent09, I took kaplan and thought it helped a lot, but we'll see how I did this coming week. If I don't pass, I plan to take NCBSN as well. Just wondering, while you were waiting for your results, did you try the "Pearson Vue trick?"

Re: :-(

Yea actually I did try it just for the heck of it and it let me go to the credit card screen

yeah this trick is very scary, especially if you see the cc page.. i tried it as soon as i got home from my test, and it let me go to the credit card page, and then i paid the 8 dollars to confirm my results, and i had failed, it was very disappointing, i cried so much.. i mean a lot! all my friends so far are passing except for me and another girl... we both will pass our next time.. God is just testing us thats all.

Re: :-(

Did you guys get repeat questions? Basically asking the same thing with the same answers, but rephrased? I got asked the same 2 questions about three times each. I felt like it kept giving me a second chance to redeem myself, but I kept answering it wrong.

About seeing the credit card page... maybe it's different in California since we unfortunately do not have the quick results option How long after you took the NCLEX did you try the Pearson Vue trick?
