Failed NCLEX PN Test


I am getting very discourage here , I have taken the test a few times and still failing it. This time the test stopped at Q143 other times 85 or 205. I studied all that I can and could. I had several resources to study from but this time around, I only used one book Saunders Edition 2. Maybe I used the wrong book, per this site, I have. Yes, taking the test and failing it a few times does make you feel like a loser and when you done so well in nursing school and then you have to take this test that is from h*LL and determines if you are fit to be a nurse. This is not fair, I want to be in my nursing field and helping people. Some nurses are in it for the money, I want to help more than receive the big dollars. Although the pay is good!!! Information is correct on here that it does not matter where the question stop at you could still pass or fail. Well, I have done all I could by myself, now I think I will start Suzanne's plan. It appears that a lot of people are successful after Suzanne's plan. Getting Saunder's Comprehensive Review for PN exam 3rd Edition today and study like a dog again. I want give up, I spent a lot of time in nursing school and clinical's, time away from family to just quit!! Anybody got any comments, feel free to send me a message....

Don't give up. You have the new edition of Saunders. Now make plans to start your study over and stick with your plans. You can do this.

caliotter3 I went out yesterday to try to get Saunders Comprehensive Review for LPN's 3rd edition and they did not have it at Boards. I am going to another bookstore today to see if they have it. Borders did have Saunders Q&A's for LPN's but I know that is the incorrect book. I took my test on 02/02/09, received my failure papers on Friday. I sending off my re-registration papers today. I will not give up and I hope that Suzanne's plan help me like it has helped others on this form.

I have put everything away that I ever used to study with before. I got the Saunder's Comprehensive Review PN 3rd Edition today and that is the only book I will be studying from. I took test on 02/02/09 and so it is time that I give myself a week break as I seen on this forum that is what to do and then start studying again. I wish you all the luck on your test. Keep your chin up!!!

Suzanne's Plan as written exactly as she says. Make a commitment of your time each day set that time aside as your study time and stick to it. Think positive thoughts. Picture yourself as successful and as a nurse. You graduated from a nursing program which is an accomplishment in itself so be proud of that. You can do this.
