I took and passed the NCELX on my second try this week and just wanted to share what I did/didn't do both times and what i feel helped me the most!
1st time-
-- Overall, i did not feel like Kaplan really prepared me that well for the test. Just doing questions and looking back at your answers i did not feel was sufficent enough becasue there was still lots of material that was not covered in just the questions they were asking. Got all 265 questions and did not pass
2nd time-
--I felt better prepared going into the test the second time becasue i knew i had gone over and atleast read material of pretty much anything that could be asked on the test. I stayed calm going into the test, felt confident and prepared and passed with 75 questions. I waited the 45 days you have to wait and took it the next possible day.
Do not feel discouraged if you do not pass the first time. Just approach the test and your studying different the first time and you can do it!!
Feel free to message me with any questions regarding studying or advice! :)
