Good luck on your retake mistiblue. I, too failed the first time. Planning on retaking in 2 - 3 months. I am doing suzanne's plan. So many have sworn by it. Judging from the contents of your post, second time's a charm for you. Will be waiting for your I PASSED! post.

yeah...I went via the same route.

Gosh..when I saw FAIL in the NCSBN, I was really shaken coz
I have been always straight A student in my school and college life.

May be I was overconfident regarding Nclex exam. I had never seen the failure in my life.

hey, u know what, thats why people says..Learning by experience. Yeah, I learned and learned it in the hard way.

The second time I took time and studied as well as followed Suzanne's study guide. And I passed.

Ok..enough crap abt me.

Best of Luck to u Mistiblue.
