Hello everyone. I am asking all of you for some help! I just took the NCLEX RN for the second time On 9/30/2014 and did not pass on 150 questions. I feel very sad cause it's SECOND time..... And still nothing. I used Kaplan and a few resources from Saunders. Can any body tell me what to do now???? So desperate . Thanks a lot.

Try to see what went wrong and regroup yourself.did you finish all the trainers and qbanks?did you look up what you did know?Go through those that already passed post and see if you can get all info needed to pass.Good luck.

1. Get the used version of the kaplan content book = READ IT itll take you 1 full week to go through it. write down notes of stuff you will forget and or dont know.
2. the hurst review its actually ONLINE for free just type in hurst mp3 and you will find links. LISTEN to those.
3. if you purchased kaplan complete the question trainers aim for 56+ even though kaplan says 60+, i have known people who have gotten below 60 and aced it. IF you cannot afford the kaplan q, trainers, that too is online you just have to google it kaplan question trainers pdf and manually take the test (pen and paper)
4. Get the 21 day NCSBN - NOW...this webstie has questions, I DID NOT recommend my friend do the questions but just become familiarized with the content. and it should take you less than 21 days to complete if you just go through a few sections a day. theyre decent reads. AGAIN, what you dont remember PRINT IT or copy paste it.
5. if you have time fr your NCSBN take questions
and last but not least
6 = REVIEW YOUR NOTES YOU MADE DURING KAPLAN + NCSBN + questions you may have gotten wrong. IF you did poorly on a q. trainer, RE-DO the q. trainer.
dont be frustrated, i knwo its easier said then done but once you have a PLAN you should be set doll!
